下半身是情人
从前，是女人问男人：「我是你甚麽人？」
今天，是男人倒转过来问女人：「我是你甚麽人呢？男朋友？」
不，不是男朋友，因为她已经有男朋友了。
无论她身边有多少男人，只有一个可以称为男朋友。或者，她并没有男朋友，但是，这个正在和她交往的男人，还算不上是男朋友，他还没到达那个境界。
「那麽，是情人吗？」男人问。情人的称号好像有点奇怪吧？似乎只是干那回事的朋友。
「那是情人知己吧？」男人又问。我们爱着并且和他一起生活的男人，又似乎永远不会成为我们的知己。「是好朋友？」男人一脸疑惑。好朋友又不会干那回事！
「难道我是你的儿子？」不！无论年纪多大了，我们还是喜欢做男人的小女孩！我们才不要侍候一个长不大的男人。
「那我到底是甚麽？」男人苦恼地问。现在竟然轮到男人想要名分。
这样吧，你的上半身是好朋友，下半身是情人。
LOL....

Choices
I am typing here in the afternoon. Went for a KTV session last nite with Tam and the gers. They were celebrating for 2 of Tam's frend. Well, before the KTV, I was working out in the gym. Wah, this morning wake up whole body aching ar... but its good, that shows my mucles were being toned. But the catch was, after the gym session, I was snacking all the way in the KTV room.. -_-".. there goes the effort of my workout.
Sometimes I am very confuse. Shall I carry on being me and not change or shall I change cos that might be more acceptable and my original character is a bit difficult to survived in a community. Sometimes I really think ppl should not think so much, but like a lot of ppl say, no man's an island. You are still subjected to the community and the people around you. I also wish to be indiviual and do what I want. But I can't.
Why am I having this kinda conflict now? I used to be very sure of myself and have my own set of thinking. Izzit the older you are, the more you will think for ppl ard you? If I can managed to change my expectation, maybe I can go back to Charlie, cos no matter who you are with, these are still the fundumental issue that I have to deal with.
Sometimes having too many choices is no good too, you will be confuse. Being in the sales, we were taught you shouldn't give your customer too many choices, they will be confused. Select 1 or 2 or 3 that meets their requirement and leave it as that.
Guess its the same with people bah. No need say to have 3 lar, 2 is enough to give you a big headache liao *rolleyes*. Maybe that is why I am always in a r/s bah, cos I no need to headache abt this kinda thing. You just make sure you are faithful to that 1 person can liao. The rest can stand 1 side.
*Footnote: Just realised I have repeated "confused" quite a no. of times in the entry....hmmm.... I really am confused -_-"...

Maybe can just make it happen.. really what, see Qingying and gang lar, Tam and gang lar, PMs and gang lar.. and their frends.. hmmm
Then today followed Ravinder for calls... hahaha.. guess what? The first call of the case is a collapse and imagine it.. at the polyclinic!! Sudden collapse, no medical history, just complaint of chest discomfort since last nite and after the polyclinic doc administer some medication to her, she collapse! Resus her all the way to hospital, attempted LMA, seems to go in liao leh, but oscillator cannot pass thru and no raise and fall of chest. Took out the LMA and lots of vomitters came out... though we already suctioned it a few times....
After that, another collapse case, but this time when we arrived, dead on arrival liao. Seems to notice and all collapsed patients opened their mouth and skin is damn pale. Sigh.......

What the @$%$
The interdependence relationship between people is really strange. On one 1 hand you dun wish to be involve in relationship, but you can't stop the nagging tots of looking for a companion. And like I always believed, there is very little chances of pure platonic friendship between the 2 genders. If you are always hanging around another person and getting very involve in each other's life, and it never crossed your mind to be romantically involved with that person, are you leading someone on? And to have to choose between 2 persons whom you might have feelings for, isn't it a very tough choice? 爱情,有了麻烦,没了也麻烦..... Haizzz. What the &#%^@ ..
My frend is rite. Maybe I should just wait for the guy who can accept my "strong" personality and not be intimidated by me. For someone to accept me for a challange, he should be quite strong in character too bah.... :p

Reflection
Went for a very meaningful dinner date with a frend. We toked abt somethings that makes me rethink abt myself and to confront my fears and doubts. Guess there are a few issues that I have to take up with myself and deal with it. I know what they are and where the problem lies. I just need to overcome them.... and most importantly, I must be able to cross my own barrier which is often the most difficult.
And I also realised something today, though it has been said over and over again... you must see a person with your heart. What you see may not be the whole truth......

阴魂不散的野鬼
阴魂不散的男人是最可怕的。
你和他分手已经两年零八个月了，他仍然每隔几天就打电话给你，求你跟他复合，每半个月，就写一封信给你点。1921年浙江图书馆出版二十四卷本，内容较少，1922年，求你回到他身边。
为了避开他，你不惜把工作辞去，搬家，更改电话号码和传呼机号码，然而而已”。第一次提出“辩证逻辑”的概念及其原则：自然界和，任你多么努力，他还是有本事找到你。
你找到一份新的工作，以为从此可以避开他，谁知道有一天，他的电话突然打到你的办公室来，吓了你一跳。神通广大的他的安排。，一听到你的声音，差点就喜极而泣，好像为再次逮着你而高兴。
你冷冷的问他找你有什么事，他竟然可以若无其事，忘了你已经和他分手，又再约会你，你拒绝跟他见面“安排”了世界的一切，“如果心灵是支配者，那末心灵将把，他楚楚可怜地说：“我迟些再找你，但是不要忘记，我仍然爱着你。”
这种男人，你即使跟他再说一千遍你们已经完了，都是没用的。你冷淡对待他，他会消失。你以为他从此消失，你就高兴得太早了。他蛰伏一段日子，又会扑出来，吓你一跳，像极了阴魂不散的孤魂野鬼。
你算算日子，已经和他分手三年零四个月了，他无论如何也应该死心吧？不，他依然阴魂不散。每年你的生日、圣诞、新年，你首先收到的，不是你男朋友的祝贺，而是这个阴魂酸溜溜的一句：“希望你快乐，我仍然是爱你的。”
他不会伤害你，你不用害怕。他不是厉鬼，不会跟你同归于尽。他是没气力投胎的野鬼，他会一直跟在你身后，躲一躲，然后又突然出现。
在他找到另外一个可以托付的肉身之前，他会不停乞求你收留他，你休想摆脱他。世上最希望他投胎的，大概就是你，只有当他找到爱情，再世为人，他的阴魂才会放过你。

不对等的热情
感情的事很奇怪。你很投入的时候，对方很抽离。你很抽离的时候，对方又偏偏很投入。
你对这段情很投入，可是对方对你一直也有点保留。你很爱他，他却不知道他爱你有多深。你们的热情并不对等。最后，他离开了，你一个人伤心地过日子。
某年某天某地，你碰到另一个人，他爱上了你，他对你很好。这一次，却是你不够投入。你不是不爱他，只是你不知道自己爱他有多深。经过上一段感情创伤，你变得有所保留，你比以前冷静得多，你不再相信承诺，不再相信这个人会永远爱你，也不再相信他会给你幸福。他愈投入，你愈抽离。
你很清楚知道这样对他不公平，但你没办法。为什么在你未受伤害之前没有遇上他？为什么在你对感情百分百投入的时候，没有遇上他？为什么他偏偏在你不信任感情的时候出现？
刚好两个人都百分百投入，原来是不容易的。
每个人都有自己的一段历史，我们最好在适当的时候相遇。一个投入的人碰上一个疏离的人，结局只有分手。下一次，我希望我们和遇的时间会好一点。
That always happens.... doesn't it?

Something about feelings
Have you ever loved someone and they had absolutely no idea whatsoever? Or fell for you're best friend in the entire world, and then sat around and watched him/her fall for someone else?
Have you ever denied your feelings for someone because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle? We tell lies when we are afraid.... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie...the thing we fear grows stronger.
Have you ever noticed that the worst way to miss someone is when they are right beside you and yet you can never have them...when the moment you can't feel them under your fingertips you miss them?
Have you ever wondered which hurts the most; saying something and wishing you had not, or saying nothing and wishing you had? I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say. Don't be afraid to tell someone you love them. If you do, they might break your heart ... but if you don't, you might break theirs.
Have you ever decided not to become a couple because you were so afraid of losing what you already had with that person? Your heart decides who it likes and who it doesn't. You can't tell your heart what to do. It does it on its own... when you least suspect it, or even when you don't want it to.
Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but that other person was too afraid to let you? Too many of us stay walled because we are too afraid to care too much...for fear that the other person does not care as much, or that all Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump. Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have, or could have had.

Decreasing Divorce Rate
Remembered there was 1 prev entry that I've read how a contract should be drawn as "Time Limited Marriage" so as to decease the divorce rate in Sinagpore?
Here's another 1 for you....
How to solve increase in divorce cases:
1. Don't get married.
2 . Make it difficult to get married.
3. Make it very costly and difficult to get a divorce.
4. Whoever wants to win in a divorce case, make that party lose.
5. Take back their HDB flat - don't allow them to sell at a profit.
6. Disqualify them from getting married again for at least 10 years.
7. If they want to remarry, they have to attend courses, and get a certificate to prove that they are now qualified to get married.
8. Make them lose their jobs - employers bar divorcees from jobs.
9. Take away their children, if any, and put them in govt hostels.
10. Make them become like a bankrupt.
Haaaa.... a bit extreme hor?? Hope they dun even think of implementing it.... :p

精神粮食day
Went to watch March of the Penguins with Charlie yesterday. A very nice french documentry on the procreation of the Emperor Penguins in the Antarctic. It sure take them lots of pain and effort just to ensure the survivability of their species.
They have to brave through hunger, snow storm just to have that little glimpse of hope that their off-springs will developed alright. The witty narrations of the 2 penguins is entertaining... haaa. And you can't help but smile at the movement of the birds and the new chicks are soooo.... cute that you wish you could curdle 1 of them.... :)
A recommended show, even if you dun like documentry, this particular 1 is shot in such a way that you are looking at a story and not just a normal narration like your discovery channel...
Have been listening to Pink Martini's album these few days. Hmm.... really really nice..... :)

女人和她妈妈
女人和自己的妈妈最投契的时候应该是在她嫁人之后。在反叛的青春期，女孩子觉得妈妈说什么都是错的。
妈妈说：“男人都是花心的。”
女儿就反驳：“你不能把你的经验套在我身上，我喜欢的男人是与众不同的。”
妈妈说：“选男人要选一个有经济基础的，不要嫁穷小子。”
女儿不满地说：“妈妈你太势利，我可以跟他一起捱。”
妈妈说：“这个男人靠不住。”
女儿说：“我比你了解他，你怎么狗眼看人低？”
妈妈说：“不要太早嫁人，一嫁了人，你就失去了自由。”
女儿说：“妈妈你不也是很年轻就嫁给爸爸吗？”
女儿告诉妈妈：“我要嫁给这个男人。”
妈妈劝她：“你不需要考虑一下吗？”
女儿说：“我现在就要嫁给他。”
女人做了别人的太太之后，终于明白妈妈从前所说的，原来都是真的。她发现丈夫和她爸爸竟然出奇地相像，他们都拥有同一堆缺点和劣根性。男人，原来都是同一个样子的。婚前婚后，完全是两个人。
于是，母女见面，各自数落自己的丈夫，数得咬牙切齿。母女两人，经过了那么多日子，终于心灵相通，十分投契。而旁观的爸爸和女婿，也终于发现，女人都是同一个样子，她们最终都会变成她自己妈妈或你妈妈。

于是，母女见面，各自数落自己的丈夫，数得咬牙切齿。母女两人，经过了那么多日子，终于心灵相通，十分投契。而旁观的爸爸和女婿，也终于发现，女人都是同一个样子，她们最终都会变成她自己妈妈或你妈妈。

Updates
Okay guys, hmm... let's do some updating.
Adolescent
Was doing some reading of other bloggers entries. Hmm... noticed 1 trend, how come we always like to give pet names and identities like Hubby, Wify, Daughters, Sons, Grandma, Grandpa etc etc to our frends leh?? That's what my sis did when she was in her teens too... Did I do that?? Hmm.... dun think so bah. Anyone can tell me the reason why??
Training
Lvl 3 is coming soon!!! Guess all of us are hugging the Buddha's leg....hahahhaa. Nothing special on my recent calls. Was thinking I long time never go RTA case le and guess what? I had 3 yesterday...haaa. But nothing serious. Samantha covered us and the case she got was also RTA, trapped case (I've never been to a trapped case before :( ) and it was a DOA case. She was describing to me how his whole leg was crashed.... I wanna go for it!! Hump....
Yesterday was counselling day, got a assualt case whereby the woman was hit on the nose by the boyfrend. Actually can refuse conveyance de, but dun know why it just never occurred to me to bring out the Refuse Conveyance Form, maybe it was due to the training bah, or something in that woman prevent me from doing that. So I just sent her and tried talking to her (I tried okay, but most of the time I dun know what to say so end up asking abt her injuries :p) en-route to hospital and she was crying the whole time. Wow... other than taking care of their injuries and illness, we must play Aunt Agony too....*rolleyes*. Then another was a psy case whereby he called the ambulance himself complaining of headache and difficulty in breathing. His mother was so surprised to see us at her doorstep. Check on the patient and tried digging some info from him. Found out that he was a psy patient and he was fustrated that nobody cares abt him. Played Aunt Agony to him and his family and whipped out the Refused Conveyance Form..... haizzz... there really is a increase in psy cases in Singapore liao. Remember when I was doing manpower posting, 1 batch of new recruits dun know how many got cases one. And mind you, they are usually the 'A' Levels students lor...
After toking so much, I am still looking forward to passing my course and start running the ambulance. It's so exciting and scary at the same time.... :p
Belated Birdday Present

Okie, guess this is quite a long entry..... pen off now. Chaozz..

Salty Coffee
He met her on a party, she was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her,while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but due to politeness, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, she thought, please, let me back home. Suddenly he asked the waiter: would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee.
Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but, still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously: why you have this hobby? He replied: when I was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I like playing in the sea, I could felt the taste of the sea, salty and bite, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I will think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who were still living there. Saying that, tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart"A man who can tell out his homesick, he must be a man loves homhometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice talk, he, cares about home, has responsibility of home," she thought.
Then she also started to talk, talked about her faraway also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continue to date. She found actually he was a man who meets all her demands: he was tolerance, kind hearted, warm, careful...he was such a good guy but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee. Then the story was just like every beautiful love story: the princess married to the prince, then they were living the happy life...And, every time she made coffee for hicoffee!m, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked.
After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said: "My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you, the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It's hard for me to change so I just go ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything..Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste..but I have the salty coffee for my whole life since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life.
If I can live for the second time, I still want to know you and have you as my whole life wife, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again."
Her tears made the letter totally wet.
Someday, someone asked her: What's the taste of salty coffee? It's sweet. She replied

Service Culture & Education in Singapore
Our PM just delivered his National Day Rally Speech on 21 Aug 05. For myself, it is most heartening to know that our leaders are looking into the service sector and the education of our people. It is time for us to focus and remake Singapore.
Service Culture
Being in the service sector myself before, I know exactly how it was to be at the other end. It is so tiring to be rushing here and there and to stand ard (I was a waitress in a restuarant) and the least that you hope is a customer throwing abuses at you!
Actually the root problem for good customer service is the attitude. Like what PM has said, not only the employees must change, the employers and customers must also be prepared to have new perception of the service industry. The whole concept of service industry is of lower level should be corrected. Parents should stop discouraging their young abt how low level the service industry can be. And most importantly, to be courteous to anyone including those serving you. Though good customer service is important, the customers themselves will have to reflect on themselves too. Do they also view those serving them as 2nd class and throw their weight ard? It won't be so hard to show your appreciation by saying "thank you", "please" to those serving you rite? Good customer gets good service. Do what you expect of ppl by starting it yourself.
Education
I am also very glad that the leaders are looking into this problem after so long with so many children being the victims of this education system. Myself included. All along, those late developers are always looked down upon, many times not by themselves, but the people ard them. Children are susceptible to how people view them it is uptmost important to get acceptance from those ard them. I was lucky to be with the mass during my schooling time being in normal stream (note there was only normal, extended and 1 I couldn't remember in my time) in Pri school, Express stream in Sec school and I choose to go Poly after my 'O' levels. Luckily by the time I went poly, the peception that it is only for those who couldn't get into Junior Colleges has changed. Poly graduates are are much valued in the workforce. But my sister was not so lucky.
She is a late developer and in terms of academic, not as good as me or my bro, but.. she is very good with her hands. Being sent to Normal Technical stream after her PSLE further dampen her spirit in her studies. The teachers in her school were not helpful either, infact they pushed her further away from the main stream. Maybe the attitude of my sister played a part, but the fact that the teachers constantly speaking down to them, comparing them with the Express and Normal Academic stream is not helping in their self-esteem. As what my sis compliant to me before, the teachers just leave it to them to study, they are not even willing to put extra effort to explain the lessons to them at a slower pace and show more concern for them. Although there are teacher out there who will go all out for this group of children, just 1 insensitive soul is enough to send them into despair and cause them to discount their worth. This is in fact like the Yellow Ribbon movement for the ex-convicts. If people want to improve, shouldn't we encourage them, give them a chance rather than sending them down into the spiral of vicious cycle?
Not everyone has a strong might and determination to overcome adversities especially so without the support and encouragment from those ard them. By at least creating an environment and hope for them to find their worth, not necessary in terms of just studying is already a very good step towards increasing their self-esteem.
