End Of Exams...

That's it...

It's over...

No amount of praying, crying, whining will do any good...

My last hope is gone...

Maths...

14 questions...
2 hours...
Meaning 8.5 minutes per question...

How did I do for it???

I left 7 Questions blank...
51 marks gone...

Of the seven remaining questions...
I did not complete the full question for most of them...

This is the most !@#%*(*##@!$@^&*&^%$##@@#(*&(*&#@$ Maths paper I have ever done...
Even worse than my secondary school's final maths exam, where I got 49.5 marks...
And Maths is supposed to be my Strongest Fort!!!!!

What am I Now after my Defense, my Base, my Moral, my Spirit, my Dignity has all been ripped apart, torned into shreds, trampled onto the ground, rubbed into the dirt, spat upon, worthless upon all!!!!!

I Am Nothing Without My Maths...
It is my Pride and Joy...
I have always been scoring A's ever since I entered nursery (with the exception of sec 2)...

It is alien to me now...
I don't understand it anymore...

Good bye my lovely Maths...
It is heart breaking to see you die...

Rest in Peace...

Ever got this Feeling??
Of wanting something really badly??


You desired it very much...

You wanted it dearly...


But everytime you reached out for it, it always seemed to shrink back, even further than before...

Yet if you don't bother with it, it will always be there, sitting, waiting, beckoning...


Seemed so near, but yet so far...


Your heart literally aches when whenever you catch a glimpse of it...

For you know you cannot have it...

You cannot owned it...


But it always there...

Always...


Misery at its peak...

Okie Fine, maybe I Am Stupid after all...

It has been a very tiring three days...

Monday = Programming Methodology
Tuesday = Electrical Engin
Wednesday = Sociology

Three days of exams...
Three days of mugging...
Three days of intense stress...
Three days of sleepless nights...

Programming was a disaster...
All those basic stuff and things I've tried to get it right before the exams have little use...
Cos I don't understand the logic of the questions at all...
So even if I know how to link pointers, how to initialize arrays etc etc etc... It is no use!!!
I don't freaking understand the bloody questions!!!
It is much tougher than last semester's exam!!!
Damn!!!

Iv says he won't get more than 10 marks...
I'm sad to say that I may be getting somewhere around there too...
All from the mcqs...

Electrical Engine was okay, for I can do the questions...
Unfortunately, my habit of making careless mistakes always cost me some marks...
Maybe I shouldn't discuss the answers right after the exam with smart people...
Always very demoralising...

Sociology was a bit of a shock...
Cos the format was quite new...
I have to choose three concepts out of six to explain/define in sociological terms and choose two questions out of five for essay writing...

The Hell!!!
Concepts!!!
I though they will asked us to define somethings like:
-- Sociological Imagination
-- Sociological perspective
-- Social Control/Order/Facts etc...

But the concepts given were:
-- Ethnocentrism
--  Bourgeoisie (I forget what is written here liao)
-- Gender Polarization
-- Norms and Mores
-- Worldviews
-- Working class and Underclass

????? 0_o

The topics I have pick to study includes Socialization, Culture, Gender, Deviance...
And luckily, out of the five essays questions, two of them were on Gender and Deviance...
But unfortunately, these two questions are kinda a bit not clear (for me lar), and I have this feeling that I've written out of point...


See la, every exam also mess up...
I'm terrible...

Should have pursued my real interest...

Real Art...

I Not Stupid... But I Not Clever Either...

Had my Physics Exam today...

After that exam, I know the "Die" word how to write... (Please translated DIRECTLY word-for-word into chinese)...
Wo dong si zhi zhe mo xie le...

Actually I should have foreseen it...
This semester, Physic part 2, (last sem was part 1) was a major brain-busting headache...
Just look at the numbers of fomulas we have to memorise...

For every non-open book exam, I would always write down all the formulas on a piece of foolscape paper for some memorising sessions...
Last sem it was only just one foolscape paper, written on both pages, with three columns of formulas per page...
This sem, it was the exact same thing... Times two...

Huh!!! You tell me how not to Die!!! Huh!!!

And the most irritating thing of all...
The physics paper was relatively okay...
I can understand most of the questions...
And I bet I can do them IF given unlimited amount of time and my formula sheet at hand... (eh... think almost everyone can do that)...
But I Cannot do the questions during the exam!!!

AAARRRGGGHHH

*slap slap slap slap slap*

When the exam was over, I chat a little bit with the rest of my friends...
And I came to observed several similarities between some groups of people...

Hello Class...
Welcome to Miss Averii's lesson on Class Stratification...

Stratification

n 1: the act or process or arranging persons into classes or social strata
2: the condition of being arranged in social strata or classes within a group [syn: social stratification]


That is my sociology module's defination of Class Stratification...
But no, that's not what I'm going to talk about...

Ahem...
Welcome to my lesson on Class Stratification...

After some careful observation, I have made some startling discoveries!!!
Presenting the different class of people in NUS:

The First Class...
The bloody know-it-all who just cannot get the wrong answers no matter what modules they are taking...
Straight A+ or A is what they usually get, getting an A- is a disappointment for some...
Typical reactions after a difficult test/exam:
"Aiyah, can do lar..."
"Heh heh, that was quite easy..."
"Low kick... Real low kick..." (can I kick you instead??)
"Chey, I thought they say it was going to be difficult??"

Reaction they will probably say after today's physic paper:
"Yeah, I'm gonna get an A+!!! Again!!!"


The Second Upper Class
The slightly more normal version of the First Class...
Very smart, but is well... Human like the rest of the population, because they Do make mistakes sometimes...
Whole range of grades from B+ to A+...
Typical reactions after a difficult test/exam:
"Hmm... That was okay lar, but I made a few careless mistakes..."
"Phew, thank goodness the chapter on blah blah did not come out..."
"I think I can get an okay grade for this..."
"It is do-able, lucky not too difficult..."

Reaction they will probably say after today's physic paper:
"Yes, this paper is pretty alright..."


The Second Lower Class
The average group of average people scoring average scores with their average brains...
Mostly gets B-, B, B+... Maybe an occasional A- for an easy module...
Always thinks of the worst case scenerios...
Typical reactions after a difficult test/exam:
"Sigh... I think I'm gonna flunked it..."
"*shakes head* oh no..."
"Aiyo, very difficult leh, how??"
"Arrgghh, I made some mistakes!!! And Not enough time to do!!!" (mostly my reaction)

Reaction they will probably say after today's physic paper:
"Die liao, this is not a very difficult paper, but I cannot do!!! Many people are going to score liao..."


The Third Class
The slightly below average people...
Either those with average brains but with very suay (unlucky) luck, or those who play too much and forgets about their studies sometimes...
Typical reactions after a difficult test/exam:
"I'm going to fail lor...."
"Think I get a lousy grade liao"
"Sigh... Don't say it anymore..."
"Ah... Stupid module..."

Reaction they will probably say after today's physic paper:
"Forget it man... Give up liao..."


The No Class...
I think there's almost none in existence in Engine Fac...
If there are, they are most probably preparing to switch faculty at the end of this sem... (no lar, just kidding...)
And if they exist...
Typical reactions after a difficult test/exam:
"Die"
"Fail"
"Dead"
"..."

Reaction they will probably say after today's physic paper:
No reaction... Too upset maybe...


Hope I didn't offend anyone of you, those were just typical reactions I have observed and maybe guessed for the different classes, not necessary 100% true...
And for the dumb ones, it is different Class Honours, not really the type of social class etc...

Okay... Time to Mug...

=_= zzzzz

Nooo I cannot make it anymore...

Having a bloody headache after doing those C programming stuff...

Maybe I should follow my friend's advice and focus more on other modules where I can score instead...

Eeerrrggghhh...

Badly in need of a Break...


I Need To Swim To Destress!!!


Or having a pet squirrel also not bad la...

I have this feeling...

That a certain friend of mine has been avoiding me...

On MSN!!!


Hah, hey you...
Yesh you...

The stupid friend of mine who either signed in as offline, or blocked me whenever you come online to MSN...

Didn't you know that I HATE it when people ignore me??
Or blocked me on MSN???

So are you avoiding me or what???
Cannot handle too enthusiastic people issit??

Hah, if you find me too irritating, just say so in my face you idiot, and not such methods...
It is freaking rude...
Basket...

You know who you are...


I have to use this form of communication, for I hardly see that friend online anymore...

I can see my friend log in when the window at the bottom right pop up, but a few seconds later, that friend name remain as offline in My MSN window only!!!

WTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!


*I will not disclose his/her identity, so YT you can stop guessing before you even start, like last time...*

Ways to Die Before C Programming Practical Exam...

Good Morning Class, I'm Miss Averii, your new teacher for the module:

"1001 Ways to Die Before the Impending End-of-the-World Programming Methodology in C"

Now settle down class...

As you all know, your previous teacher for this module will no longer be teaching you...
He is a very brilliant man, or should I say, he WAS a brilliant man, until his successful attempt to commit sucide finally work...
After so many times, yes... yes... , hard work and dedication is essential in this course...
If you could not get it right in the first attempt, try and try again...

Okay, can anyone in this class tells me what are the most fundamental ways of killing yourself??

Wow, what a huge response I see...
Now... The boy over there, wearing the red sweater, yes you...
Now please stand up and tell the whole class your answer... and your name as well, thank you...

*chair dragging against the floor*

"I... I... My name is... Depressanrio..."

Oh good day, Depressanrio, now please kindly tell us your answer...

"Welll, ermm... I did try drowning myself, but I got saved, you see..."

That was a good answer, Depressanrio, now please sit down...

Yes, dying by drowning is one of the ways...
But I shall show you the main theories first, which I shall illustrate on the board...

#1
Suffocation
#2
Huge Impact
#3
Loss of Blood

Now for #1, suffocation, which most of time, is via drowning...
Other ways also includes sewing your nose and mouth shut, sleeping with your face in the pillow, choking on your food etc...
But however, none of these are very practical, and they tend to induce a lot of pain, and may not be feasible as well...
Drowning is a very good idea, for when you get into the water, the oxygen in your lungs will run out very soon, and your own body weight will pull you down even further... Tying stones to your legs is one very good idea too...
In fact, the more you struggle, the faster you will go down...
There will be some pain, and uncomfortable feeling at first, but as your brain soon loses its oxygen, you will start to lose your consciousness as well...
Thus the suffering is only short-term...

But there are cons of dying via drowning...
First of all, it requires you not to have the skill in swimming...
So that even if you panic at the very last moment, there is still nothing you can do, but drown, thus acheiving your goal...
So even if you did try to resist the temptation to use your swimming skills, it takes a huge amount of discipline and resolved to carry it out...
Also, it would be best if you can try this method in places where there are very few people, thus decreasing the chances of you being saved by a passer-by, like what happened to Depressanrio...
You will feel very disappointed, as all of your initial efforts will be wasted but try not to take it out on the inncocent passer-by, alright??

Now, lets go on to the second method, dying by huge impact...
There are several ways to carry it out...
One way is to jump off the building...
There are so many HDB flats in our little country, feel free to take your pick...
One good thing about this is that it will let you experienced the effects of free-falling, as shown in many physics textbook you have...
Now you will finally have a chance to carry it off...
Another way is to jump in front of a moving vehicle...
But there are several conditions to this...
First of all, the vehicle, must be Big, there is no point in jumping in front of a kiddie bicycle...
You will only incur pain, and tramatised the young child as well...
And the vehicle must be moving very fast, you will not die if the bus you are standing in front merely nudges you, or is stationary...
Jumping in front of the MRT is a hot favourite right now, as shown in the recent cases...
However, I must warned you, it will cause a major traffic and MRT jam if you proceed to do this in the rush hour...
Please spare a thought for others, you don't want your life, but they sure as hell treasure their time...

This method is good in a way that it is fast, and deadly...
Very slim chances that anyone can save you, for the time interval for the impact is beyond human reaction time...
However bear in mind that you will experience great pain...
And your body will be mangled up, or disfigured even...
So please think carefully before deciding whether you want to go by this way...

The third one is loss of blood, usually done by the slitting of wrist...
Or going to the blood donation center many times and lying about the last visit you made...
After all, blood is precious, if you want to die, might as well do a good deed before you do so...
There will be a short sharp pain when you decided to die this way, and make sure you have lock your doors before you do so, you do not want someone to come and save you, send you to the hospital and let them pump blood into you...
It is the totally opposite effect you want...

Okie class... That is the basic description of the fundamental ways to die...
There are many variations of these, or you can even combine them and create a whole new way of dying...
Be creative!!! Think out of the box...

Now time is almost up, we will continue with our lesson same time next week...
Your assignment for this week would be to think up of one way of dying, based on what I've told you regarding the fundamental theories...
You can use one theory, or combine any of them together...
Also include the method of doing it, the pros and cons, and any after effects if any...
Please do not copy your classmates answer alright??

That's all class, you are dismissed...

*Ringgggggggggggggggggggg*





*All of these is purely fictional, I made it up... Hahahaha...*
*And no, I'm not psycho, I just have a huge imagination*
*And if anyone of you decided to die after reading it, well, you are sure dumb, idiot, better off dead anyway*

And their solutions...

And I think I cannot make it...

In fact, me and Iv were discussing on the best way to die, before the practical...
So that we can be spared from the agony of reading 1000000 words and lines...
And having our eyes crossed and remain there...

Jelmer said...

Interesting thought u have...

In fact, i had similar thoughts way back when i was in NS... It was a time when i see a lot of different people especially those who are in the same group, or rather section as me...

Then, there were a lot of politics going there... like how this person dislike that person; this person was outcasted; this person and that person ganged up to defy another person; etc.... there were a lot... Worst was, all these were done behind the 'victims' back...

Due to the nature of my NS duty, which i shant elaborate, i got to see how people reacted in front and behind.

To cut the story short, when I became my section I/C, I was non-chalent on how people behave in front of me. I was skeptical cuz i have seen how complex the way politics worked, even for the previous I/Cs before me.

Ok, cut the story even shorter, i came out with an explanation. Ha..

Sometimes, even if one pursues the truth to everything, one would still rather see the 'good' side than the 'bad' side of people.

Imagine, a person you noe see you and greet you and chat abit. You would probably felt glad. If a person u noe see you and ignore you purposely, u would probably felt pissed.

So now, should u feel angry about it? Or rather be happy about it? If that person hates you and is willingly to show u the attitude, should u be glad that he is truthful?

But often than not, like i said, people would rather see the hypocritical side of people, be it knowingly or unknowingly, than see the real side of people.

So it has now seems like the onus is on u and not on other people, how truthful they r to u..

Ok, probably u wont agree with me, or dun understand the logic, but it's okay.

LOL.

U noe wat, i was a bit crazy about such things cuz i had enough during the NS, that i came out with 4 theories, titled Jelmerism. HAHA...

Damsel in Distress... Need a Handsome CS Saviour...

Oh hello *giggles*, my name is Feather. Because *giggles*, that is how light my brain is, just like the weight of a feather *giggles*.

Oh dear, what did I just say? *giggles* Oops, I guessed I've forgotten it again. Bad Feather dear. No wonder all my friends never talk to me. They just scribble down words onto a piece of paper, so that I can take my time reading it, and re-reading it. Hmm... It is quite hard for me to understand what they are writing though, sometimes. They use words like, wait let me check *rustle* *rustle*, arh, there are my notes. Let me just type slowly those big big tough words.

W. H. A. T. D. O. Y. O. U. W. A. N. T. T. O. E. A. T. ?.

See? It is so long! *gasped* It took me about 15 minutes to read through everything! But I still don't get it. Boohoohoo.

Y. O. U. R. F. L. Y. I. S. O. P. E. N. !.

Here is another one! I don't know why my friend keeps on writing this word to me. Maybe it is a very important word! I should try to memorise it. Then next time I can say it to other people too!

Lalalalalala~


Ahem...

Anyway, in case any of you haven't guessed it yet, the above was not written by me!!!
That was written by my eeehhh... "second self"...
Well, you know... The dumb side of me??
So if one day you see me acting weirdly, and dumbly, don't panic!!!
That is just my second personality talking...

Its occurance has been increasing in its frequency now...
Because I feel dumber and dumber as exams draws nearer...

CS practical is just around the corner, and I have not gotten my basics and stuff correct!!!
I'm still stuck at Arrays, Pointers, Character Strings!!!
Holy cow, especially pointers, super-chim...
So confusing lo, point here point there, assign here and there and chaos everywhere!!!

I Need A Saviour!!!

Someday my prince will come~ Someday he will ride---

Oei!!! *slaps self* Stop taking over!!! This is my blog you airhead, go write your own lar!!!

But I dunno how to... to... Errm... What did you just say??

-_-; Oh never mind, looks like your STML (short term memory loss) is at a more advanced stage than mine...

Anyway, as I was just saying...
I need someone to help my CS!!!
So I broadcast my plea in MSN, by writing it as my nickname:

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress...
Need a Handsome CS Saviour...

Hours passed... No one came to my rescue...
Maybe it was because of the criteria 'handsome'??

But at the very last minute, someone came to claim the title of 'Handsome CS Saviour'...
That person is none other than thick-skin, errrm... I mean *cough cough cough* 'handsome' Chia ling!!!

He very smart, any questions I fired at him, he can answer, wth I'm so jealous Chia ling!!!
But still thank you all the same for tolerating my nonsense... Hahahaha...

As quoted from our MSN conversation:

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress... says:
byebye saviour!!!

- cj - says:
next time i only respone to VERY VERY handsome

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress... says:
...

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress... says:
eh, i cannot be too picky la, hahah scarly one handsome guy wants to teach me leh??

- cj - says:
short of one VERY means not refering to me already

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress... says:
den how about "handsome and above saviour"??

- cj - says:
if(VERY>=2)
teach(averii);

- cj - says:
im very exclusive one

- cj - says:
i wont respond to that one

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress... says:
if (saviour > handsome)
can_teach(averii);

- cj - says:
only " VERY VERY handsome and above saviour"

-'-,-<@ Damsel in Distress... says:
but handsome and above also includes very very handsome wad...

- cj - says:
if (saviour > VERY VERY handsome)
MIGHT_can_teach(averii);

- cj - says:
im very exclusive


Ya okay, I get it...

Today is the day...

I finally realised just how UNFIT I am...

After weeks of denial, I decided to give my mirror a chance to tell me the truth...
But still unconvinced, I followed my little squirrel to further test the reliabilty of the claim it (my mirror) makes...

So we went jogging today, at a park nearby my house...
Since I only woke up at 9+++++am, that park was the most obvious chice to go because of the shade those trees will provide...
I love shades, because I will melt in the hot sun...

Anyway, that park wasn't exactly a park...
It was more like a hill-being-tranform-into-a-park-with-pond/lake/got-water-inside-thing...

Hill = Slopes = Tired Calves = Not Good...

Pond/lake/got-water-inside-thing = Got Tadpoles = Cute = Nice to Watch = Good...

Anyway, at the hill-park, we did some warm up exercise before we start...
And we ran a Grand Total of miserable X minutes...
Why X minutes, because it is so miserable that I pai seh...

Ahem, after running for that X minutes, I realised that if I do not want my little squirrel to suffer the consequence of me fainting and carrying me, I will have to stop...
Hah, that is my exercise of the week: running a miserable X minutes...

The hell, I am So Freaking Unfit!!!

Back in JC days, where I'm at my fittest, I can run 2.4km in 13.14 minutes...
That is good enough for someone without a running record...
But now... Where in the world did my Stamina go???
That X minutes, I only ran this long because I became breathless too fast, but my legs are still energetic...
In fact, there was no after-exercise sores and aches!!!
This means that I have not exerted myself at all!!!

Hmmpth, next week I must go swimming, cos at least I can last Y hours instead of minutes...

Must
Toned
Up

Err... Remind me please...

Finally!!!

Finally, I did it!!! I submitted my application for the financial aid...

Really appreciate those people at the financial unit for their help and understanding...

Now back to the still ever long and torturous journey of completing the YEARLY expenditure for my family...
Now how the hell do I write it???
Yearly leh!!!

Darn... One whole morning wasted...

I'm gonna get high blood pressure...

The Long And Torturous Journey...

The Financial-something-something from NUS sent me an email...
They granted me access to apply for Financial Aid!!!

Yeshhhhhhh!!!!!

So happie!!! Wooohoooohoooo...

Oh Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!!!!!

5 minutes later...
That happiness don't last very long...
Because I suddenly remembered the long and tedious journey to applying for the aid...

I started to do my online application at 10.12am...
And I'm still doing it now...

Wah liao!!! There is so many restrictions!!!
Must get tax statement, get this get that, what reliefs, this that!!!
So many freaking things I don't understand!!!
(like... Claim Reliefs... Who the hell do I claim it from?? The gahmen... Opps I mean government???)

Hah, what if the reason why so many people did not manage to get financial aids last semester was because of the overwhelming things they have to write...
And Half of those things is most likely to be foreign to them...

It would be really REALLY STUPID, if the REASON why I couldn't get the bursary last semester was because that I have type in the WRONG information, or send in the WRONG stuff...

Like the latest tax statement...
I sent in the Notice of Assessment last year...
Given to me by my DAD...
Who probably thought that it was the statement itself!!!

WAH LIAO!!!

This semester...
I not that dumb to blindly believe...
I went online to the Internet to research on "What An InCome Tax Statement Looks Like"...

In the IRAS official website...
My Foot... What official... It sucks like hell!!!
After hours of searching, I still could not get what I want!!!!!

Grrrrrrrrrr.........

So I asked dear Chia-ling instead...
He manage to agar agar tell me what a tax statement is, what is inside etc...
But other than that, he had no idea as well...

So once again...
Mission... Half-accomplished...
Maybe I should write a letter to them to explain instead...

Screw red tapes...

WHAT THE HELL!!!

I CANNOT BELIEVED IT!!!

BUT I MISSED THE DEADLINE TO APPLY FOR NUS FINACIAL AID!!!

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

EEEEERRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!


The deadline is on April 1st, but I only received a email telling me about it dating 22th of March!!!
Yesh, I know my fault, I should have remembered, but in the midst of all the tutorials, lectures, last minute rush to get ready for the final exams, I FORGOT!!!
WTF WTH WTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

But hey, why did they only send it on the 22th of March???
Hmm... Did they send an earlier email??? If so, I did not received it, or I may have missed it!!!

So I send a email back to them saying

" I am a student currently studying in the Faculty of Engineering, and I was wondering if there is any other way of applying for finacial (freaking spelling mistake!!!) aid? I'm really sorry that I have missed the deadline, for I received a email from regcomms on the 22th of March regarding the deadline only. But in the midst of all the studying and preparing for final exams, it had slipped out of my mind. I had also assumed that the application will end somewhere in the middle of april as I received the email on the 22th of March. If there is an earlier email telling us about the finacial aid, I must have missed it, or that I did not received it at all. Please help me with this for my family depends on my father's income which is less than $2000 per month. It was a bit tight for my family last semester as I did not receive any aids than. If it causes any inconvenience, I'm really sorry, but I did not know what else I could do to apply for the finacial (shit!!! not another one!!!) aids.
Thank you for time, I really hope I can receive some help on this.

I'm doomed... They are most probably gonna force me to take QET...

But then...
Why must send via email??? Don't they know that most NUS students do not have the habit of looking at their emails?? Especially if it belongs to the school...
Or they have the habit of mass-email-deleting... Which is what I did most of the time...

Okie, my FAULT then!!!

RRRRROOOOOAAAAARRRRR!!!!!

Hey, it's Hard to be Me... and You...

When you want to be true to yourself, it means saying out your feelings, your opinion, our thoughts, your everything without any facade right??

Yea right, its kinda hard to be that...

See, when you see something/hear/experience something, what will your reactions be like??
(especially if it were things which you don't like, is Wrong, is untrue, or you are asked for your own opinion... blah blah)

Will you...

Be honey-sweet and sugar-coat everything you say, everything you do, played down the wrongs and turned up the rights just so that you will "not hurt that person's feelings"??
Really because you don't want to hurt that person's feeling or because you want to be liked??

Play the boot-licker, say/do/act and be the exact opposite of what you are feeling because you want to gain something from it, and will not hesitate to trade your integrity for something tangible??

Just act indifferent and say something along the lines of "yea, right... Errm whatever", because you do not know how to react to it, for fear that you will say something wrong and suffer from the consequence??

Say out the very harsh words, exaggerating things, twisting the truth, and going all out to hurt someone in the process just because you do not like the person, something related to the person or because you feel like it??

Or will you say out the real truth, your exact feelings, without any sweeteners??


These are the typical examples of how people will react, in many situations...
I know a lot of people will choose to go down the honey-oh-so-sweet route...
Especially the girls... Are they really that kind, and nice??
Or because they wanted to be liked, they are afraid of spoiling their reputation, or because they are brought up this way??
However, although they ARE some people who are really this nice, I suspect many are not...
Especially in the face of a stranger, or an acquaintance, they will travel via this road, and maybe even in front of their good friends, many choose not to disclose their true feelings...

As for the boot-lickers, sometimes it is freaking obvious to spot them, sometimes not...
Few people belong to this category now, but the numbers may rise rapidly when they enter the workforce and came head-on with office politics...
You will either learn it willingly or be "forced" into polishing those damn boots, because everyone else is doing it, consciously or not...

The indifferent method, also quite popular among the guys and maybe some of the girls as well...
As far as I know, this is most likely one of the safest method, having no opinion..
Nobody can accused you of saying the wrong things at the wrong times, and that is probably why this is a Singaporean's favourite...

The evil and mean, they survived on other people's misery...
The more other people suffer, the happier they will get, because their lives would seemed to be more fortunate in this way...
Many of us, deep inside, would feel this way...
Because we live in a very cold and calculating world...
Where one man's fall is another man's rise...
(Thus those news reports on bloody murders/crimes are usually the hottest articles...)
But whether we choose to show it to the whole world is another thing altogether...

The truthful...
Few people possess the essential courage and language ability to do so...
There could be more of these in existence, but chances are, they are most likely to have morph into another species as they try to conform to societial pressures...
When they speak out the truth, people will go "Eh, why you so mean?? Don't hurt his/her/it/their feelings okay??"...
Thus they are always seened as in the same league as the Evil and mean species... (who were so evil and mean that they are indifferent to criticism to themself...)

How can one progress and improve if one did not received constructive criticism??
You have to learn to accept all of your flaws and learn more about your strengths before you can really be happy...


What are you like??

One of the species or a combination??

Time to do some thinking and self-reflection...
