Man I m suppose to study hard for my upcoming Jap exam ,yet I m wasting my time writing the blog... Hmm not totally wasting as I m relaxing and at the same time trying to ponder over some issue...
Most imptly, why am I writng my blog when I m suppose to read my Grammmer notes. Why m I calling my friends when I m suppose to clean my room or type my report etc ect? why do pple do things that are not appropriate at a certain time, yet keep on doing it... Hmm does the inappropiate task seems more fufilling. Well, chatting on the phone and on the Msn are imformative but once done, I will panicked regarding my supposed more important task. Like now, will I spent time panicking abt my grammer and my impending doom after I have finish my blog? But then since I m aware of the consequence, why am I doing it?
" I dun noe" is a convienent answer to my actions, but is there a another deeper meaning regarding my procrastination? " I dun noe" is a such a simple and universal explanation that we tend to misuse it in abundance... When others give u a " I dun noe" as an explantion to their reason? How will you feel? Instantly, one will think that the other party is not thinking hard enuf, maybe S/he need prompting, after that all sorts of reasons come pouring, which shocked the listener as some of the reasons are not even substantial enuf to be listed as a reason.
But in this busy city of ours, who will have time to prompt us? who will listen and have time to analyse us and our action instead of juding us and label us as incompetence whenever we make the wrong turn? Definately not our bosses, they either will put a cross on their mental scoresheet or they will holler at us.. Mere acquaintance will just shun u and tell others to be beware of you. They may even exaggerate your wrong doing to make it interesting... Thus wat can we do? Be careful of our every steps so that we will not step on the tail of the unknown? It is a better precaution than to wonder why are the rest so anal on little things that doesn't matter. Note, things that doesnt matter to you, matters to others.

Harry PotterとJLPT について
Today, I watch Harry Potter with my bro. Gd show, but then the world cup qudditach matches was not shown much... I was expecting a world class performance leh, but then too bad loh. Hmm the movie is kind of short given the length of tht book itself. Lots of other stuffs was not mentioned. Anyway, I have forgotten much details of the book and the movie just refresh my mind, hmm I m looking forward for the next Order of Phoenix and the half-blood prince, esp the half blood prince as the order is too lengthy and unneccessary...Hmm I wonder how long I need to wait...
Hmm meanwhile, I m busy with my upcoming Jap exam. Done some Listening compre just now, that is my weakest area, think tat it is v hard to pass as all the questions are v interferential, unlike our normal MT Listening compre, which require us to just give the correct ans as the rest of the options are ridiculous if u listen carefully to the passage. But the JLTP's listening is different as they normal told you all the information and you have to make out which one is the correct pic that match the passage... REAL TOUGH. The second part of the listening compre is even tougher as ypu have to listen real carefully for the pronounciation and choose the correct ans. To those who learn Jap, you all noe that the pronouciations are v similar for various words which make it super hard to decipher as the passage are being read in a normal manner. ( super fast as they blah blah all the way, like how u see Jap toking on the street), Our MT 's passge are been read in a slower than normal speed,which make it easier for us to check.
The next thing is the durations of test. For MT, it is ard 20 min for the passage and rest of the time are repeats. Jap listening has no repeats and it is 40min... Hmm imagine 40 min of listening to Fast talking Jap in riddles is v V tiring da yo ne. After a while I simply wun be able to concentrate anymore (pre level exam.
Thus gd luck to me if I mange to scrap though this time... ( Hmm If can't make it, will try again next yr loh}

Aspirations, can we meet them???
I remember that we all have aspiration when we are young...I want to be a doc, lawyers etc, but 20 years down the road, how many of us realised our Aspirations and how many of us are v far away from it.
I remember I always has tons of aspiration in my youth, namely, CID officer, Judge and ER doctor, pro Swimmer like J. Yeo and a professor in pyschology or Science. But why din I realise all these dreams? Are those dreams possible, did I try... Or is it that when we grow up, the alreadi grown adults warns us that our dreams are not easy... tHus our aspirations are not possible. Is that the reason y I give up. I have to say that most of of dream job are not easily attainable, but then I din noe wat I shd do to realise my aspirations. I have fumble all the way by myself as my parents din have to make the same kind of decision as me. But there is a saying in Chinese, when u are young, ur life is given by ur parents, but when grown, u are responsible of leading ur life... I totally believe in it.
It is till the start of my adulthood that I think that such things such as fame and money doesn't matter. Wat matters are whether we have contribute to the society? Are we making a difference in others life, do we bring JOy to others? Some pple may think tat making a difference in pple life is too altruistic and it is not within the means of normal ppple... But there are a lot of ways to contribute, by scarifying the time u have ( normally for resting ) in the weekend, u can help a lot of elderly/ cancer patients by accompany them in the weekend...
Altho it may not seems much, but when u have help those pple in way or another, u urself will have the kind of satisfying glow. That why, it is not tat sometimes we dun realise those aspirations because it is hard, sometimes because along the way, you find new things, the things that really matter other than fame and glory that those elite profession bring.
Looking back at the years, I think I m at my proudest when I realise my small aspirations ( not the big ones that I have mentioned earlier)such as by able to learn Japanese, by managing to get an A for my A level maths (failing till the prelims) ,telling my friend that she can also get the A if we work hard enuf.By joining CCF in my Uni days. Hope that I can continue to contributing to my families, friends and othes life, make a difference, that have become my aspiration.
Quotes by 静思语: A peaceful mind is a blessing. The ability to work is also a blessing. Happiness is a blessing. Broadmindness is also a blessing.

MBTI
Have gone for an MBTI workshop in the school yesterday...
Early in the morning, it look like this...
Wake up, thot tat I got a lot of time so I ate my breakfast couple with newspapers, therefore the speed was ultra slow. Normally, I wun be so diligently reading newspaper in the morning unless it is Urban or Sunday times, so yesterday, the culprit is the Urban + denise Keller in the bag pages... Wow, she is still with wolfgang despite him admitting tat he is a flirt b4 he met Denise. I will too as Wolfgang is such a gd looking chap and he brought her a Cartier. Hmm After I savour the whole papers, I realised that I was late, thus must rush like the bull in the china shop... Oh oh, where is my books, my keys, my hp... Definately a daily mad rush. Get a msg fr cheeky colleauge that "big" pple was areadi in the rm impling tat I better get to there fast else minced meat... Then he say tat lots of us were not there yet... any consolation? Hmm yah, we will all be minced meat, enuf to make chaw shiew bao.
Reach the venue
I was among the last pple... But just in time as the workshop started immediately as soon as I sat down with my purple name tag. Phew, had to take photos of the speakers... Poor lighting is the worse shooting condition but had to shoot lah, else I kana shot.
Speaker tok abt personalities blah blah blah... Aiyoh, I have done MBTI before in Sec Jc and online in the Uni... wats the diiff???
Well, I think the different is that this MBTI not just allow us to understand our personalities, it teach us how to make use of my strenght and weakness to enhance my work... Hmmm But I think the best things of this workshop is the notes of various personalties type so that I can guess accurately which personalities does my friend belong to. By now, I have 2 correct guesses... Hmm maybe my next job can be a personalities consultant... =)Will it earn me more bread than now... Hope so woh. To those who are interested to learn your personality type can start Queuing.Pls take a number tag. I may do it FOC woh...
