Insecurity

You should work on your insecurity issues instead of putting me down (in front of me and behind me time and again) in terms of my looks and the way I dress just because I have more admirers than you.

 

Dare to Dream

Extramarital Affairs

The place I work at seems to be a breeding ground for extramarital affairs. The women seem so ready to seduce the men and the men seem so happy to be at the receiving end of seduction. Don't they know there are serious consequences? Don't they know that there's a heavy price to pay? Don't they know that their children and/or their children's children will have to bear the consequences of their sins? I'm against extramarital affairs!!!

It's kind of strange to see men in their 50s going for facials.

Ashley Madison Website

I am in favour of MDA blocking access to this website, which is a dating site for people who are married. I can't believe that there are people who promote extramarital affairs openly!!! This world is already full of problems. How can they be so sick (and so evil) to create more problems by encouraging extramarital affairs???!!! I hope all the governments will block access to the website.

The Price of Beauty

I can never understand why some girls/women are so willing to go for plastic surgery despite the pain, etc. I can understand if they want to have plastic surgery because of accidents though. Is beauty really that important that they would rather bear with the pain, etc? Is just having an 'ok' look not good enough? Do the views of men really matter?

有些人一旦错过了，就再也没有机会了；而有些机会一旦错过了，就再也找不回了。。。所以我觉得要是真正在乎一个人，就应该趁还有机会的时候去关心他、去好好把握机会、去证明你真的在乎他，而不是等到失去了才来后悔。。。今天去送我朋友人生最后一程的时候，听了她姐姐说的告别词。。。若真的关心她，就应该趁她还在的时候去关心她，而不是等到她去世了才来表示关心。。。这样子，我觉得好虚伪。。。有必要吗？

So Sick!!!

A Woman at a Nightclub (Mum) on Sat Night was taken by 5 men, who according to hospital and police reports, gang raped her befor...e dumping her at a Bus stand in Mumbai...

Unable to Remember d events of the evening, tests later confirmed the repeat rapes along with traces of
'Rohypnol' in her blood....

Rohypnol, date rape drug is an essentially a small sterilization pill...

The drug is now being used by rapists at parties to rape AND sterilize their victims...
All they have to do is drop it into the girl's drink...
The girl can't remember a thing the next morning, of all that had taken place the night before...

Rohypnol, which dissolves in drinks just as easily, is such that the victim doesn't conceive from the rape and the rapist needn't worry about having a paternity test identifying him months later....

The Drug's affects ARE NOT TEMPORARY - they are PERMANENT....

Any female that takes it WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCEIVE.
The weasels can get this drug from anyone who is in the vet school or any university.
It's that easy, and Rohypnol is about to break out big on campuses everywhere.

Believe it or not, there are even sites on the Internet telling people how to use it.

Please forward this to everyone you know, especially Girls....

Girls, be careful when you're out and don't leave your drink unattended.
(added - Buy your own drinks, ensure bottles or cans received are unopened or sealed; don't even taste someone else's drink).....
There has already been a report in Singapore of girls drink been Spiked by 'Rohypnol'......

Please make d effort to fwd this to everyone you know....

For guys - Pls do inform all ur Female friends & Relatives, remember U also have Sisters...."

Authority

I despise people who abuse their authority, especially those who get their positions of authority through nepotism. I despise people who make use of their positions of authority to promote those who don't deserve to get promoted but nonetheless get promoted, because of their (sexually?) intimate relationship with the latter. Judgement is in store for the former. I am certain of that.

My Thoughts

Men generally are such scary creatures! They could be having flings or one-night stands with men and/or women although they are either married or attached. Some (or maybe many) could be legally married in another country rather than in their country of origin and so it might not be possible to really know for sure if they are married. Many of them (I believe) could be having flings or one-night stands overseas and many (I believe) have mistresses overseas. That is at least true in the case of Singaporean men. It's so scary, isn't it?! Why can't men just be contented with having a wife or a girlfriend? Is it because of their ego? Or is it because they are wired that way? Don't they have any conscience at all???!!!

 



Dare to Dream

Integrity

I pride myself on the fact that I am a person of integrity and so I feel very offended when someone questions my integrity (directly or indirectly). Yesterday afternoon, a colleague actually chose to trust what a client had said rather than trust what I had said, though I had told her repeatedly that it wasn't me...in the end, I was proven right. In my workplace, I am one of the few who have integrity (I am not boasting here) and so it was even more offensive that she chose not to believe my words.

Dare to Dream

What right do you have to question what I do when you are not even my boss? Why can't you just ask me directly though you have no right to question me? Why must you go to my boss? Please remember that you got promoted not because of your own capabilities but because of your unusual relationship with our big boss!

True Love

When I think of the definition of true love, I remember a guy whom I knew many years ago. He actually wanted to give me the capital to do business, and the amazing thing was that he didn't expect me to accept him as a condition. (If I had no problem trusting men then, I would probably have accepted him.) If something is important to you, a guy who truly loves you and is in a position to give you that will definitely go about doing that for you immediately. Likewise, if a guy truly loves you, he will never allow anyone to bully you. In other words, true love requires corresponding actions.

Instrumental Piece - Untitled

While trying to make the music for 你就是我的幸福 sound better, I felt stuck. So I tried to change my usual music style and BANG, it brought about an instrumental piece. I like it! :)  Personally, I think it possesses a magical power to soothe a tired soul, and I believe that it could heal a broken heart too.

My Thoughts

This afternoon, someone asked me if my big boss is a gay. It brought to my mind a true story about a woman who found out that her husband was a gay after they were married. It also brought to my mind another story about a local DJ who is a gay but yet has a girlfriend, apparently because of his family. To me, it's alright to be a gay but it's definitely NOT right for a gay to get a girlfriend or a wife for the sake of his family. It's not fair to the poor woman! Moreover, that is TOTALLY unethical!

Dare to Dream

My Thoughts

Recently, my immediate boss told me that my ex-supervisor had sent her an email pertaining a common client. I am SURE she knew that it was my client but yet instead of emailing me directly, she had chosen to go through my immediate boss. It showed her lack of professionalism and her inability to avoid bringing her personal prejudice to bear on our 'working relationship'. (I am using inverted commas here because there was no working relationship between us even though there should be in view of the fact that we had a common client.) Incidentally, she was the one who had sinned against me MANY times, not the other way round. So all the more she shouldn't allow her personal prejudice to interfere with our 'working relationship'. She should leave the social work field for good, instead of being a black sheep and a disgrace to the social work profession. I could have gone to her immediate boss regarding this matter but I didn't. Why would I want to stoop to her level?!

10 Men You Should Never Date

Every office has one and although the office flirt is charming, good looking and makes you feel like the prettiest girl in the world, they make bad boyfriends. This is because once they are in a relationship they will struggle to stop flirting; fooling around with other women is part of their personality. Although this isn’t to say they would ever cheat or take their flirting further, how comfortable would you be with that?

~ Quoted from http://lifestyle.xin.msn.com/en/sex-relationship/10-men-you-should-never-date#image=8

I'll never want to date a flirt because, like what the article says, 'fooling around with other women is part of (his) personality'.

Dare to Dream

I will NEVER want a playboy because I love and respect myself, and I certainly deserve a worthy and faithful man.
 

Dare to Dream

Social Work

I just read an article in the Straits Times (dated 6 Jul 2013), entitled The Price of Not Raising Social Workers' Pay. I like what the writer (Ms Ang Bee Lian) has written. Incidentally, the writer is the Chief Executive of the National Council of Social Service.

 

In the article, Ms Ang wrote about the 'personal risk many social workers undertake when they work in difficult situations where they intervene to protect vulnerable people...' This brought to my mind an incident that happened years ago when I visited a totally blind elderly client, who lived with a mentally ill son. During the visit, her son suddenly came out of the kitchen with a knife and aimed it at me. Fortunately, nothing happened. Another personal risk that social workers may face is the possibility of being raped. (I have heard about social workers being raped in Hong Kong.)

 

Besides personal risk, social workers may also face sexual harassment. Personally, I have experienced that on many occasions. :( It can be a mental torture. :(

 

I'd like to quote part of the last paragraph in the article:-

 

The question should not be whether we can afford to pay social workers a competitive wage, but whether we can afford not to, and leave social issues and social injustice to fester...

Power of Love

A Secret of Love

My wife got sick. She was constantly nervous because of problems at work, personal life, her failures and problems...with children. She has lost 30 pounds and weighted about 90 pounds in her 35 years. She got very skinny, and was constantly crying. She was not a happy woman. She had suffered from continuing headaches, heart pain and jammed nerves in her back and ribs. She did not sleep well, falling asleep only in the morning and got tired very quickly during the day. Our relationship was on the verge of break up. Her beauty was leaving her somewhere, she had bags under her eyes, she was poking her head, and stopped taking care of herself. She refused to shoot the films and rejected any role. I lost hope and thought that we’ll get divorced soon… But then I decided to act on it. After all I’ve got the most beautiful woman on the earth. She is the ideal of more than half of men and women on earth, and I was the one allowed to fall asleep next to her and to hug her shoulders. I began to pepper her with flowers, kisses and complements. I surprised her and pleased every minute. I gave her lots of gifts and lived just for her. I spoke in public only about her. I incorporated all themes in her direction. I praised her in front of her own and our mutual friends. You won’t believe, but she has blossomed. She became even better than before. She gained weight, was no longer nervous and she loved me even more than ever. I had no clue that she CAN love that much.

And then I realized one thing: ""The woman is the reflection of her man""

Songwriting

Sometimes it can be difficult to find people who share the same passions/interests, especially passions/interests that are not quite common such as songwriting. I guess that was probably the reason why I was particularly drawn to the former client, whom I mentioned in my earlier post, when I first got to know her. Not many ordinary people are gifted in songwriting and so it's hard to find someone who shares a common passion/interest in this area. 真的是知音难寻。。。

One of my former clients apparently loves to write. Me too:) She used to write song lyrics; I still write. It's just that my focus is on Chinese song lyrics.

Singaporeans Can't Speak Enough English?



I just saw an official email from someone in the United States, asking if my client could speak enough English. I was amazed because I didn't expect to be asked that question. My client will be attending university in the United States and so obviously she must be able to speak enough English. Singapore's official language is English and Singaporeans study English as first language in school. Therefore, Singaporeans generally are able to speak good enough English though the majority might prefer to speak Singlish.

A new colleague is really getting on my nerves. Her sheer arrogance and apparent superiority complex really put me off! She is so new to this field but yet is so unwilling to learn.

She's just TOTALLY unfit to be working in this field. (She should go back to her old field and be a blessing, rather than staying put where she is a misfit and be a curse.) Damn it!

I can relate to how he feels about the bullying, because I am often bullied at work. :(  Specifically, he mentioned about how his foreign superiors had bullied him. At least he could take comfort in the fact that the foreigners who had bullied him were his superiors, not colleagues or subordinates. I am not being sarcastic, because I have ever been bullied by foreigners who are not even my superiors. (This is a 'sick' world with a lot of 'sick' people.)

I can't stand it when a useless and 'sick' man sends PIs to check on me. He has absolutely no right to do that!!!!!!!!!!

Friendship

如果我得在友情和爱情之间做选择，我一定选择友情，除非男的真的值得我付出。

我真搞不懂为什么会有男人愿意娶一个邪恶的女人为妻？如果那个女的美如天仙般，我或许可以理解。但是那个女的长相只是一般罢了，为什么那个男的还是愿意娶她呢？

The local tour guides apparently only speak Mandarin and so for those who cannot understand Mandarin, it's better to go with friends who can help with translation.
