GIRL asked cheekily, "How much do you love me?"

BOY replied, "One Cent."

GIRL was stunned. "Huh? What do you mean by 1 cent? Isn’t 1 cent worthless?"

BOY said, "B’cos you can’t find One Cent around these days."

*GIRL fainted*

Hahahaha…. it gotta be the best joke of the year.

Super boring day in sch, with so many errands to run.

And it looks like it’s gonna rain. I wish I’m at home snugged under my warm blanket, indulging in my beauty slp.

Talking abt slp reminded me of the dream I had about Mei last night. She "kicked my butt" in my dream just like how she did in real life. I woke up startled, and realized I had dozed off while studying for my Finance mid-term. Hahaha… no wonder she appeared… Weird dream I had.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s so hard to tell a closed one you love him. Okay, maybe it’s not that difficult to say , "I love you." But it’s heart-wrenching when you noe he wun GET it, and it’s gonna bounce back unacknowledged.
I tried saying "I love you" in my own way to my dad last night. But he missed my point.

Sigh… *i’m robbed of words to describe* (;_;)

Gonna accompany my mom to energy camp this weekend. Looking forward to new breakthroughs in our relationship. =)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’ve got a simple wish- May life never gets the better of my loved ones but them getting the best out of life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The LADY hasn’t gotten back to me her response. Either she has forgotten about it, or she has run out of sight.

Is it that difficult for a YES or NO qns?

Sigh… and I’m still F.O.S b’cos of that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To my dear fren, sorry I dinno you were having a rough time this week, and for doubting your integrity and consciousness.

Hope things will get better for you!

BE STRONG!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I went to a course over the weekend, and it’s called ONE CHOICE- THE DOOR, so I wanta share my experience and what I got out of the program. Here goes…

In life, almost everyone has a list of what they want to do in their lifetime, but almost everyone does not have the answers to "What is it that I really want in my life?" and "What is it that truly drives me in every single thing that I do?"

Yup… so I started the program with listing every single thing that I ever wanted, such as writing a book, being joyous for every single moment of my life, hoping that my family will be in love all over again, to fully live and fully love, to make a difference to the world, to get the latest gadgets in town, being rich, winning jackpot in Las Vegas… and the list goes on and on…

However, even while I was writing those things, I still couldn’t figured out the answers to the 2 QNS that I mentioned above. Then, the participants had to narrow down the list to only 10, and I tot I picked the ones which truly matters to me most and were close to the answers…. but I was still far from it…

At this point, I was given a koan*…. and I got "hit" suddenly. Upon the realization, I was so moved by my realization that every single cells of my body was vibrating was that "ONE THING". I was so moved by my own courage and love and was overwhelmed with those emotions, and overwhelmed with that ONE THING that is BIGGER than who i am. That ONE THING that will motivate me in every single thing that I do, no matter how averse the situations will be. Freaking triggering realization I tell you…

I’ve FOUND the answers to both qns.

AND i will walk my path with my ONE CHOICE.

Cool! =)

*koan refers to a philosophical qns that provides the context at which one inquires within to achieve the desired insights and realizations.

The classical koan would hafta be the chicken and egg qns.

So either answer you give will definitely be wrong. But when one truly GETS the answer, you can tell from his/her face.

Btw, every qns has an answer. I’m serious about that. Even those impossible qns like "what’s the purpose in life", or "should I choose boy A or B?", have an answer. If not, you wun even be able to come up with a qns in the first place. However, the answer will have to depend on whether you have enough awareness and clarity on the topic.

I had one of my yearly doses of DUH-ness during one of my Finance101 class.

Before I go into my "DUH-ness", lemme just describe a little of my prof.

My Finance101 prof is this PhD Indian Singapore PR guy, whom talks "chim" in all his lessons. Those students whom take his classes must be HIGHLY competitive and intellectual in order for him to be impressed and remember your name for class participation. So which means, if you ask qns like, "What is the Internal Rate of Return?", or "Can you calculate the Net Present Value of this portfolio?"… these are considered as very "DUH" qns, ‘cos you should have studied them at home and you can get the ans from the textbook.

The fun part about him is that he always love to crack jokes, and I think it’s worth attending all his lessons just to have a good laugh. But I’m constantly "stressed-out" during his lesson ‘cos I can’t think of any more Intellectual qns to ask during class!!!

After trying hard for 4 weeks, I decided to give up trying to think of intellectual qns to ask during his class. So this was wad happened…..

He was commenting on a distribution curve and saying how the curve was "skewed to the right", when I suddenly blurted out without thinking, "How do you determine when the graph was skewed to the right or left? You mean it’s skewed to your right because your back is facing the graph and the curve is on your right-hand side? Or what?"

And it turns out that everyone was laughing like mad and they laughed like it was the biggest joke they’ve heard in the century. OMG?!? >_<

And prof. was so amused by my utter innocence of asking a "DUH" qns in his highly-intellectual class that he told the Teacher’s Assistant (TA) to register my name and give me a permanent extra mark for class participation for all the lessons for the rest of the semester. And I earned the reputation of the "DUH-ness" Queen for his class. Gosh!

Can you believe it?!?

Actually I still din get the joke lah, but as long as everyone enjoys the joke, albeit at the expense of my embarrassment, and I got permanent class participation, I’m alright with that. And the irony is- I tried so hard to impress prof., but failed. When I din try to impress him, he was impressed.

The good part of my misfortune is- the next time I speak up in class to comment on smt., ppl. will automatically be impressed, since their impression of me was my "DUH-ness". Cool…

OMG! I still can’t believe that happened to me!!!

Morale of the story:
When you stop trying to be significant, and just be yourself, you become "significant".

PS: Argh… What made me ask that qns?!? >_<

My brother

It took me 20 years of ignorance and 1 year of conscious life (TCC + POS) to realize my brother is a very nice guy. At least it’s not too late to acknowledge him. =P He gave me a hand-made necklace. And how many brothers in this world would always help their sisters to buy dinner, wash the dishes, do her share of household chores, treat her friends drinks and gave her hand-made necklace? Well… mine did. (;_;)

And I love my brother for who he is.

Hmm… maybe I got bribed by the necklace. Oh well…

Spa Treatment

After doing the swinging arms technique from the energy workout last sat, my whole body is aching. Mind you, it is whole body, esp. my back! Ouch!!! Hmm… I know I’m supposed to be happy ‘cos aching means that my body is detoxing itself and the bones have loosened up… but still, it hurts lor. The aching is equivalent to an 2-hour vigorous bball practise or 1 hour of serious workout at the gym. And can you believe the energy workout for the swinging arm technique lasted mere 20mins?

OMG… Am I unhealthy b’cos I’m aching so much, or am I healthy b’cos my body has detoxed itself? I’m starting to get paranoid.

I miss my spa trip. And I want a javanese massage to soothe the aches away… Ahhhhhh…. Pure bliss.

How better can life gets when you detox and pamper your body?!?

I want my spa trip!!!

Student’s woes

I’m stressed out. No, to be more precise, I’m too stretched. Need to watch out for my energy level this week. I’m so so so so stretched….. It’s getting a toll on me. I missed my hols already. I shall make a mental note to constantly remind myself I’m not a superwoman.

Sigh.

Where’s superman? (alright, this is so corny. I shall stop the joke.)

I’ve got 2 POA students whom are taking their exams this year. One of them (R) is taking N’level in Oct and the other one (N) is taking O’level in Nov.

Actually, R is the smarter one as compared to N, but N is much more hardworking.

When I took them as on as my tutees earlier this year, both had failed their POA. R improved from a single digit to 30+ during his mid-term exams, and he was so happy about it b’cos he claimed he had improved alot! Honestly, I’ve never seen anyone so happy despite still failing his exam. Oh well…
On the other hand, out of sheer hardwork, N improved from a D7 to a B3 during her prelims prep exams.

Anyway, I wanta bitch about this R. I acknowledged that he’s smart and able to grasp what I taught very fast. When I gave both R and N the same test each week, R need to study only 15mins to pass my test, but N needs 1 day. However, since R’s not willing to put in any extra effort, I’ve got this bad feeling that he’s gonna flunk his N’level. To make things worse, he’ll need to pass his POA in order to pass his N’Level since his other subjects cannot make it. >_<

I just gave R an exam this week. He can’t do the 1st qns himself!!! OMG!!! Sigh… no matter how good I am in my POA and as a tutor, I can’t perform magic leh! Anyway, it’s affecting me alot as I’m feeling very helpless. (;_;) And his N’level’s in OCT!!! ARGH!!! HOW HOW HOW?!?

Maybe I shouldn’t place too much expectations on myself as a tutor, but I would want all my students to do well. That’s a commitment to myself, the parents and my students.

So……………………

HE’S SO GONNA GET IT FROM ME. AND I WILL MAKE SURE THIS LAZY BUM PASS HIS EXAMS. ARGH!!! TMD GNN SSO WTF IPS 78 89!!!

AND MAY N. GETS THE A1 SHE DESERVES. =)
