Pressure, Stress, Panic

Heard a friend saying this job for during Dirty Dozen brief a few years ago.
Whats the difference between Pressure, Stress & Panic?
One will feel the Pressure when his GirlFriend got Pregnant.

One will definitely Panic when his Maid got Pregnant....

ST Green Month - 15/11/2008

15t November 2008, marked ST Green Month. I was "volunteered" to help plant a tree at Admiralty Park (Woodlands).

Went KTV with Xing Yun, Xing Yun's Bf, Xinyi and Zhiyu the day before, sang till 2am... Slept about 3.30am & woke up at 6am... Shag... Nevertheless, went for this event & planted a pathetic tree... hoho... But found that Admiralty Park is really big. Amazed by the size... Good for hiking or maybe discret couples... haha... Nice experience with the Park... Like to go back to feel the nature again.

My Favourite Tissue Wrapper

Still remembered discovered this favorite by Mathew about 4 years. haha...

Tired...

Think that my 4-5 months of easy life ruined me a little...
haha...
Since a long time I didnt feel this shag, but at the same time excited...
Given an assignment to be Project Manager...
Trying to understand that what is the assignment as a whole,
at the same time need to know my work allocated in detail,
at the same time needs to know what a Project Manager should do,
at the same time to keep morale moderate as everyone is blur blur about the assignment,
at the same time reading & understanding all the report sample and example,
at the same time to help my direct superior to do research finding and
at the same time organise an event.

Kaoz... In general, I feel that my performance so far was ok. Only feel that when i got alittle stress-up, i felt irritated easily and hence talked louder and "alittle" more less coutesy to people who accidentally irritated me... haha... Oops... Sorry....

Think back longest hours in work... hmmm
1) Noel. Consistently for 2-3 weeks worked from 8.30am-12midnight/1am daily. 1 night even knocked off at 2.54am. Still remembered that time thought to wait till 3am to earn that extra dollars, but too tired for that 6mins. Punched my card & went home. That night also had my scariest taxi ride. The driver was an old man. I have no obligation with old people. What worried me was he used his body weight to navigate a turn! And when expressway, he raced with a Merce vehicle... These 2 actions made me fresh throughout the journey... haha..
2) Air Force. Doing programming project. 8am-1.30am. Luckily encik Lum let Jew Yong to go home first, or else I will have to walk out of the base enjoying the midnight breeze....

But dont get me wrong... I didnt do OT in the company... I just worked from home... Thats even sadder... haha...

Toastmasters Club Meeting - 6/11/2008

I was only there for about 1hour.
Going to send my sis & hurried back home to carry on with my work assignment...
Nevertheless, still learn quite a bit in that hour.

Quotes:
- To Teach is to learn twice.
- An Evaluator is like a catalyst of a Speaker.
- Use not so offensive words such as "I suggest that", "my impression is that", "it may have been better if".

A Lame Joke

Saw this joke in Fabian's Blog: http://mylifeinalog.blog.friendster.com/2008/09/i-like-lame-jokes/

A bus stops and 2 men get on. They sit down and engage in an animated conversation.

The lady sitting next to them ignores them at first, but her attention is galvanized when she hears one of them say the following:

” Emma come first. Den I come. Den two asses come together. I come once-a-more! Two asses, they come together again. I come again and
pee twice. Then I come one lasta time.”

The lady can’t take this any more,
“You foul-mouthed sex obsessed pig,” she retorted indignantly. “In this country. we don’t speak aloud in Public places about our sex lives.

“Hey, coola down lady,” said the man.
“Who talkin’abouta sex? I’m a justa tellin’ my frienda how to spell ‘Mississippi’.”

Thinking of Singles

Recently went for quite a number of gathering...
Have a conclusion...
FTK are all the singles males & females doing???!!!
1) We were talking about some martial status of some friends and we mentioned some of married & quite a few even gave birth. Then the lady friend said, "So what are we doing here?"
2) A guy friend's friend claimed that by joining the dance club, we may be able to know alot of single ladies.
3) Many of my guy friends complained that they are unable to get a girlfriend.

Gals are complaining... Guys are complaining...
So whats the problem now???
That triggers me... Are the guys too 宅男 or wood?? Or are the gals too picky? hmm...
I feel that both side have to responsible for this... haha...
It needs to hand to clap.

On the other hand... I am a wood + 宅男. haha.... Oops...

A bad lame Halloween Joke

If guys were to go to a Halloween party, we will have to do some make-up and dressing up to suits the occasion.
But for ladies... That will be simple. They can just go to the party without make-up... hehe...

Ace Ur Job Interviews with the Power of NLP

After Tennis, went to "Ace Ur Job Interviews with the Power of NLP" Workshop conducted by Toastmasters Club. Chin Hui was the workshop facilitator. (NLP = Neuro Linguistic Programming)












Have quite a few of take-back from the workshop:
1) Go to an Interview as if that that is the only interview one will be having. Because the mental state will react as according to TRY & MUST. If with the TRY mentality, most likely it will be only a TRY outcome. On the other hand if it is a MUST mentality, one will do anything to get the job.
2) Need to know ourselves:
- Whats our beliefs & self-worth
- Whats our Unique Selling Point
Many times we may feel that what we do in our current job everyday was just a routine, and it isnt anything great to say about and boast about. BUT this is not the correct mentality! If thats the case, how are we going to go through the interview? We need not to boast, we can just try to relate the tasks we did to the job u are applying, even if industries maybe different. But at least it can hightlight individual's attitude and soft skill capabilities. Another issue on this point, somehow we feel embrassed when we said "We Are Good." haha... I feel that we are humble people, partially this is also a sign of lack of confidence.
3) Before interview, try to set our mind. Think of smething good. Something that make one confident. Because once something bad falls in, one's brain will keep on relating that bad things & eventually affect ur mood and confidence for the interview.
4) Show Interest (I think I am lacking in this area... haha...)
- Search for the company's information. What are her core businesses/products, stock price?
- Ask quesion. "Whats the Training & Development opportunity?" "Future direction of the company?" "What the company expectation of me?"
- After the interview, sent a Thank You card or email.

A sentence Chin Hui used that I feel is important:
"Let the interviewer feels that it is a commitment, not a transation."
This shows the one is serious about the job.
