I wanna marry a programmer~

2008-07-23T10:54:00.003+08:00

HaHa....

I suddenly had this thought that if I was to get married someday...I wish he is a programmer!..... Woo~~ I think that's really cool....I always wanted to do lots of things online.... I enjoy doing up web sites....and I am very into Joomla! - The free CMS .

But with my job commitment and very little knowledge about web building...it is kinda hard for me to do wonders that are on my mind. I was hopping to learn CSS and be able to come up with my own template design for Joomla! someday....... :P

so perhaps marrying a programmer is a short cut ?

偏心=心病

2008-05-04T18:04:00.007+08:00

曾经有过在父母面前争取表现，想搏多些注意，哈哈。。。小时候爱炫嘛！而且在五个孩子当中自觉最不亮眼，学业也并不是很好，所以是有些在意的啦！还好长大后没有这样的阴影，没有继续这样的渴望所以也没有失望。现在反而庆幸自己还好从来没有被特别宠爱或则失宠的经历。。。所以并没有这类的心病。

我家老四呢。。。就是“受害者”吧？从小每个人都说她很可爱漂亮，小时候很爱笑，嘴巴也很甜，所以妈妈特别宠爱她。反而对同样是双胞胎的老三没太多好脸色，因为老三小时候曾经在爸爸那里的亲戚帮忙照顾而妈妈并不喜欢他们，所以就觉得老三脸看起来老是臭臭的，而她也不会看人脸色说几句动听的话。

是风水轮流转的缘故吗？长大后的双胞胎两人性格竟然对调了？？妈妈跟老四的磨擦越来越多。。。而对老三的态度也在我和其他姐妹轮流“提醒”和“责说”下，变得很好。这当中也许包含妈妈对她的歉疚和老三自己的努力才能改善他们彼此的关系。老四和妈妈却逐渐的因为很多事情。。。关系每况愈下。。。。。结果她俩有了心病！

感情是需要经营的，但是我们往往都有很多借口，没时间啦，对方不可理喻啦，累啦，赌气啦。。。等等。。。关系又怎能会好呢？

今天老四因为被妈妈早上无理的责骂而心里不平衡，一提起妈妈她就怨言多多。我也觉得妈妈不对但当时我并没有起身帮腔，况且姐姐已经在帮忙说理了。。。我可不想妈妈恼羞成怒，气坏她！而且要说妈妈也要找对的时机！

下午时，老四还气氛难消，佣人不知提起妈妈什么。。。她竟然回答佣人时，用“She Crazy one ..."来形容妈妈，然后佣人问大姐要吃什么面。。大姐竟然一起起哄无心的说“I want to eat that one that will make mother angry”。我乍听之下，觉得这些对话不好在这场合继续下去。。。于是就提醒他们不要在这里和不对的人面前说这些，不是很恰当。老四竟然吐回我说干嘛不可以说？妈妈也没给她面子在佣人面前骂她啊！我对她说再怎么说她毕竟是你的妈妈啊！身份不同啊。。。更何况这不是面子的问题而是尊敬的问题。。。在不对的人面前不该提这些。她还是很不忿地说“那你式看看给她这么骂啊！”然后认为我针对她一个人。

唉。。。我怎么会不知道她很冤？我强调我并没有赞同妈妈的做法，也根本没有针对她一人，我刚刚的提醒用词是“你们”，是说给当时同样在场的她和姐姐听的！我也说她可以跟我埋怨妈妈，我可以听但不是在这里。。。说话要在对的地方和对的人面前，在佣人面前提，你要佣人如何尊敬我们的妈妈？

妈妈已经多次埋怨佣人不把她放在眼里，跟她说的话，她不是不理，不做，就是拿我们来压妈妈，说话也没礼貌，最近态度改善了，我可不要这样的事再发生。如果佣人知道我们这么看待自己的妈妈就会觉得凡事有我们撑腰！对妈妈的态度又会如何？我最后留下一句“我以后不要听到你在佣人面前批评妈妈”。。。也许对老四很残忍，但一味的气氛跟怨愤就可以什么都不管了吗？可以因为妈妈这样对她。。。就以牙还牙吗？再怎么不对也是我们唯一的妈妈啊。。。更何况妈妈也为我们做了很多啊。。。就这么在意妈妈偏心？那你自己就努力想办法改善啊！你们两个的心病还是要你们自己解决啊。。。当然我们也会帮忙啊。。只可惜她往往都不信任我们。。。

成天在家和佣人相处时间最长的是妈妈。。。佣人在敬老尊贤的观念上必须正角，同时我们也在教育佣人，事情按照妈妈喜欢的方式去做，有不能沟通和不明白的地方。。。等我们回来再问我们，尽量减少她俩起争执的机会。她有没有想到这间中的担忧和可能带来的问题呢？

缘分和默契

2008-04-05T08:00:00.004+08:00

曾经跟一位朋友有过一段很有默契的日子
有过在车站等车时，忽然看见对方刚好驾车经过
也有过要过斑马线时，对方就在我面前把车驶过
然后开心的到附近小会或兴奋地在电话上聊聊

当缘分淡了。。。还是默契消失了。。。
就算在对方常出现的地方等上老半天，都不可能遇见

庆幸，我们偶尔聊聊天，希望彼此一切都安好！

10 ways to be happy!

2008-03-31T10:01:00.010+08:00

Last Saturday, the radio DJ talked about 10 ways to be happy.

Note: Comments below each points are my own views.

1) Throw away or give away things that you don't need.
I guessed that means living in a good and healthy environment. So...don't keep junks under your bed!

2) Exercise
We need to feel good about our own body, staying in shape and good health keep us away from sickness and aches.

3) Keep a photo album of good memories
Reminds you of some happy times which you might have forgotten over the busy work schedules.

4) Breath deeply, at least 10 times a day
Most of us has forgotten the right way to breadth, we are either not inhaling enough oxygen or exhaling enough carbon dioxide. Deep-breathing helps in handling depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders. Check out this link for more details.

5) Stay in touch what the young people are doing.
Having a same hobby or have a common topic with the young people helps you stay young at heart!

6) Forgive
Bearing a grudge is a torture! It affects your heart function and wakes you up in the middle of the night with kicks and shouts! Forgiving others or yourself, frees you from anger, sadness or guilt, it helped save or even strengthen a relationship. Don't let sisters, best friends or mother and children become enemies!

....hmm.... I forgot what are the other 4 points...

haha...so here are my own points:

7) Decide to be happy.
A decision to be happy reminds us to stay positive at all times.

8) Accept and move on
Some things cannot be changed by our own effort, whether you learn a lesson or cannot find an answer to it, or when you are badly hurt. There are times where we have to accept the fact and move on with life. Don't pity yourself too much that you live in sadness, regretting over things not done or digging for answers that has happened long ago! Stay in present!

9) Don't be Calculative
Don't count if you gain more or less from your love ones. If you start to be calculative, it is complicated, frustrated, hurting and never ending arguments. Make up your mind, if that is who you want to love, love with all your heart! And towards your family members, don't be a miser.

10) Help Others
Helping others means helping yourself, when you see the happy smile on their face, it touches your heart! But helping others doesn't mean you have to expect any returns. There are cases where you gets lots of complaints, nagging, scolding and lots of trouble too... but deep inside, you feel good to have the ability to help make someone's life better.

Haha... I only managed to achieve 4 out of 10....how about you?

why dig?

"sometimes thing in life is not meant to be explained in depth as it can get rather complicated. When that happens, it is wiser to accept thing as it is. Nonetheless, the enigma of life gives us enough reason to feel positive about it." - Equinox

I have a friend who used to call me once in a while, I enjoy talking with him as we do have some common topics but whenever he started talking about a common friend and things that happened in the past, I felt sad for him. His time seems to have freezed; he is still borthered by things that happened few years ago. I also felt disturbed, how can I remember those details? I even suspected he called me just to ask about her??

Maybe collecting bits and pieces of clues helped him understand more and eventually find his answer....but I looked at it differently. There is no answers for everything in life and when you think you found the answer, it might not always be the truth, so why dig so much?

What I do is don't try too hard to understand things that I don't. I have to admit, it took great pain and lost to come to this, all I can do is to let go... to forget and to forgive...or you call that giving up... just move on and someday I might see things in new lights.

Keyboard Lucky Charm

2008-02-26T15:37:00.005+08:00

Last year, I put a $10 red packet underneath my keyboard, hoping that it will bring good luck for my business. This year while doing spring cleaning for the Chinese New Year, I put an extra $10 into the red packet, hoping that my income will be double of last year.

For the past 2 weeks...I have non-stop orders coming in and I worked like crazy....perhaps my lucky charm really works! :)

Love birds

Found them on the ceiling of a shop house. The neighbouring resturant plays loud musics - it didn't seems to affect them. The floor has evidence of their long stay, making the ceiling wires as their home sweet home, so lovely and loving ya...

Korea YongPyong Ski Resort

2008-01-05T12:40:00.000+08:00

Year 2007, December 29, I didn't expect myself to enjoy skiing. I am a cautious person who don't play sports and anything dangerous. Now I regret having picked the tour package that has only a half day session at the ski resort :( that gave us a 2 hours of skiing only. We are told not to carry our camera with us while skiing... and in a rush I forgot to take shots of the ski resort. This photo is from the Yongpyong Resort website, it shows the area where I start off with, carrying our heavy equipments, walking clumsily to a side of the slope where our tour guide and camera man became the instructors.

They basically gave us a less than 10mins briefing, and we all take turns to do a test ski.... haha...I am the third one. I was so nervous and I lean my body backwards trying to control the sliding and there I fell on my butt. I got up quickly with the help of my tour guide and did a 2nd test.... this time I calm myself and try to lean forward slightly and look up straight. I put some part of my body weight towards the front part of my tall boots, I found myself being able to control the speed :P Having fell down from the beginning isn't a bad thing at all! From the fall, I experienced what I did wrong and managed to correct it by doing it a different way. My instructor is right, he said some people can learn skiing in 5 mins if he gets it right! Since the first fall... I did many successful ski and each time higher without falling and I also managed to make slight turns to avoid people infront.

Secretly, I think I am the best among my tour members and my tour guide gave me a praise too :) Too bad there isn't enough time, anyway I might not be physically fit for longer play. Now, back in Singapore, I am considering to try out Snow City at Jurong....... and perhaps I will be back again to Korea during winter someday.

"All In" Shooting Site

2008-01-04T22:25:00.000+08:00

Photo showing the church used in Korean drama "All In" at Jeju island. I find it funny when a drama shooting site became a tourist hot spot. Although such itinerary has been popular but I am really not keen......luckily the sea view facing the church is beautiful :P

Photo showing the sea view facing the church. The sky is cloudy that day, however some sunlight managed to escape... when the light cast on the sea ...it results a bright white sea surface... amazing and beautiful and you can also see rays of sunlight from the sky. I never knew sea can shine.... :)

Korean Spicy Rice Cake

2008-01-04T09:16:00.001+08:00

Photo taken during my recent trip to Korea...."La Chao Nian Gao" is what we call it in chinese... this is a must try! I wasn't sure if it is made of rice....to describe it... it is a white, hard yet "springy" food...not much taste itself...all the taste comes from the spicy sauce, I simply love biting it over and over again! Yummy!
