Views about love, relationships, marriage

Just read some article in a local magazine.
It stated that Carina Lau & Tony Leung been attached for the past 16 yrs. Though there have been rumours ard saying that they have broken up, but they have been cohabiting for past few dunno how many yrs...

After reading that, I was thinking that hey that's true love isn't it? What's marriage? To some pple, its a promise of love.. to others its just a piece of paper. Some pple get married cos they found a partner to spend the rest of their lives with, some do it cos they have been together for many yrs. Been hearing too many cases of unhappy marriages happening to friends, relatives, colleagues...etc etc. the list just goes on.. So is it really so crucial whether one is married or not? It seems like its no longer a promise of a happy life (at least from a gal's point of view) now..unlike in the past probably in our grandmother's era.

Take Carina Lau & Tony Leung's example.. Tony Leung appears aloof most of the time.. however, he can be by Carina Lau's side for 16 yrs..16 yrs of relationship.. How many pple can promise that and really do it? Let's not discuss abt whether they should cohabit or not..but the fact stands that the love is still there after 16 yrs. Wow.. its really so rare.. really...How often do u hear couples not having a good marriage life a few yrs down the road? I've seen and heard too many... If true love is what u want.....isn't it just enough to find true love like that between Carina Lau & Tony Leung?

Was just chatting with a fren via MSN.. He was saying that he has no money for marriage..after giving him some "positive" light in life.. he has been throwing back negative views to EVERY single suggestion I gave..great.. never mind.. the thing is he's been thinking of the whole affair in monetary terms.. n after he has nothing else to talk abt in that aspects. he go on to tell me that he barely noe his gf for less than a yr.. Hey friend... time is not an issue in such things. U can know a person for >10 yrs but do u truly know everything abt them? Even if u think u do, life will sure be 100% different after marriage.. This is a fact we all have to face. Living together is always a different issue. Regardless of how many yrs u been in a relationship, there are still many things u got to learn together as a married couple.

Marriage is not everything abt money...its more on what u want out of it all... a scene in local drama, Love Concierge, left a very deep impression in me.. In the show, Fiona Xie was preparing for wedding with her bf. They had not much money too and chose to hold a simple wedding in a park... with just some close friends and family.. That's true love isn't it? There aint much guest, nothing grand. But one can feel the strong bonding between them. WOW... So what if do not huff enuff to buy a new flat? a rented flat or room will do too right?

But then again.. its all between the couple.. its ur life.. so its ur choice... that's all I can share..the rest is really up to u. as long as u r happy...:)

New links added

Just added some new links to the blog
added some misc ones, some celebrity's blog and friend's blog too.

I'm not waiting for Hedy to give the go ahead to post her link in my blog....Haha.. but anyway.. she didn't post anything that is not meant for public viewing "yet" ma.. >:P

As for the celebrity's ones... some are blogs that I read rather frequently.. partly cos I listen to their radio programmes.. or at least see them on tv before.. like their humour sometimes.. some are new links discovered during those few days when I was hibernating at home to prepare for exams.. (erm.. YES I did spend time preparing for exams too haha...I need to relax though I know I need to mug hard ;P)

Just discovered Patricia Mok's blog site on one of the blog sites.. She's sharing abt shopping and makan tips.. It should be a rather interesting site to visit if you happen to be running out of ideas about where to go and what to do.. :)

I'm not exactly a fan of xiaxue...but I read one of her entry on her experience watching movie at Yang Tze cinema..it was hilarious.. Now I know why her blog is so popular... The same goes to Mr Brown I guess. He sure have a unique sense of humour. Do read his column in Friday's edition of TODAY... it's a good way to start the day by reading what interesting view he has ;P

夜晚

顿时间怎么会觉得夜晚好可怕?
理智的头脑到了夜深人静时
总会去无踪影
失去理智的自己,思绪也跟着混乱

今晚感觉甜甜地,
但又害怕接近这地带

或许,失去了理智,我误解了。。

是吗? 我也只能这样对自己说。。。

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

for some weird reason. just feel like doing an english translation for the above entry..but pls pardon my weak vocab... :

Have a sudden feeling tat the night is so fearful...
It seems like rationale disappears at nite
Without rationale, I fear analysing myself.. I fear having to make decisions

The feeling is sooooooooooo sweet
however, it scares me too

Failing to think rationally,
Perhaps, I've mistaken

I can only convince myself by telling myself that
I have mistaken...

I think I'm starting blabber.. I should just go to bed..
Good nite to all...

Yeah...I passed my first paper!!!

Hoooray!!! *phew* managed to pass my first paper for MCAD.
was so stressed by the fact that I had to pass my first paper by end March in order to qualify for application for CITREP funding..
And the fact that my course is company sponsored makes it more stressful for me.
But it's all over now.. *phew*
at least made it for first round.
Hope the experience will make me more prepared to go for the next 2 papers to get the certification...

Perhaps the time when most pple feel drowsiest.
But hey, come on la... U r a customer service officer and supposed to be on duty at this time...
Although u were trying to be friendly with your "yes, madm" here n there... But I must say u really sound VERY VERY sleepy and not too enthusiastic about helping loh. I also feel sleepy talking to u!!!
N after all, u are a customer service officer working in a rather reputable bank! Shouldn't u be ashamed of ur bad cust. svc or lack of it??? ...

喜欢

喜欢在周末晚上听杰奇空中的节目
喜欢他那把稳重的声音
喜欢他在夜晚的感性
喜欢他播的歌曲,那么的有层次感
喜欢听他那独特的见解
对生活也好、感情也好、学业也好、亲情也好、工作也好
往往都令人另有所思
让周末夜晚过得充实些
让夜晚的脑袋在临睡前,思考一下
让你能好好的规划生活、规划下一周

选择性的播着曾经熟悉的歌曲,
有些或许有点冷门,但是都不禁会让你有种“啊。。。好歌。。。有意思”
那就是杰奇

不知不觉,期待他在933 值班已经变成一种习惯,一种期待

Handwriting Analysis

Supposed to be finishing up some work stuffs cos have to rush for class tomolo can't stay back..but chance upon this site and did the test for fun :P
Here's my analysis.. I agree with most of the analysis! Wonder if its juz coincidental ... do u agree with the result? Leave me a note and let me know ya? :)

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

******* The Analysis Starts Here *******



For a graphologist, the spacing on the page reflects the writer's attitude toward their own world and relationship to things in his or her own space. If the inputted data was correct Nicole has left some white space on the left side of the paper. Nicole fills up the rest of the page in a normal fashion moving the entire writing rightward as she moves down the page. If this is true, then Nicole has a healthy relationship to the past and is ready to move on. The right side of the page represents the future and Nicole is ready and willing to get started living now and planning for the future. Nicole is leaving the past behind and moving on to what she perceives as an exciting and enticing future.



Nicole has a healthy imagination and displays a fair amount of trust. She lets new people into her circle of friends. She uses her imagination to understand new ideas, things, and people.



Nicole is selective when picking friends. She does not trust everyone. She has a select group of people that are truly close to her, usually two or three. She is careful when choosing her inner circle of friends.



Nicole is having a lack of physical energy at the time this handwriting was written. If someone has very short and straight down lower loops (like in the y or g), this indicates this person's physical drive (activity or sex) is compromised. Usually, this indicates the person simply isn't interested in getting too physical right now. This could be a temporary mood which often happens when the body is sick and is healing. Or, this could be a result of an emotional or physical issue that is effecting Nicole 's energy level and interest in sex. Sex doesn't seem to be a priority at the moment.



Nicole is very self-sufficient. She is trying not to need anyone. She is capable of making it on her own. She probably wants and enjoys people, but she doesn't "need" them. She can be a loner.



Nicole is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth. This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem. She needs to visualize the end of a project before she starts. she finds joy in anticipation and planning. Notice that I said she plans everything she is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned. Nicole basically feels good about herself. She has a positive self-esteem which contributes to her success. She feels she has the ability to achieve anything she sets her mind to. However, she sets her goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach". She has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, she will not take great risks, as they relate to her goals. A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, her self-perception is better than average.



In reference to Nicole's mental abilities, she has a very investigating and creating mind. She investigates projects rapidly because she is curious about many things. She gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but she soon must slow down and look at all the angles. She probably gets too many things going at once. When Nicole slows down, then she becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, she must slow down to do it. She then decides what projects she has time to finish. Thus she finishes at a slower pace than when she started the project. She has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. Her mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. She can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Nicole can then switch into her low gear. When she is in the slower mode, she can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. She is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip.



Nicole will be candid and direct when expressing her opinion. She will tell them what she thinks if they ask for it, whether they like it or not. So, if they don't really want her opinion, don't ask for it!



Most people with a severe leftward slant have some type of childhood trauma they have yet to work through. Since we didn’t actually “see the writing”, we can’t tell if she actually has a hard left emotional slant, but if so… she has issues with trust and it is likely rooted in childhood. Nicole has withdrawn into herself. She is reserved and shows her feelings only at times of great anger, extreme passion, or tremendous stress. Nicole is an introvert. She makes decisions based on logic, therefore she is rarely impulsive. She doesn't find any need for expressing her emotions. In fact, she probably sees this emotional expression as an unnecessary waste of time. She has a hard time relating to an extreme extrovert, although it is common for her to be attracted to one. Many people do not understand Nicole; it is difficult for them to really know how Nicole feels. Nicole enjoys being alone, and probably prefers working alone. Working with her hands is a pleasure. Nicole's basic nature is to look out for herself first. Although she can and does feel emotions, perhaps as deeply as anyone, she just almost always harbors them inside. The first time someone angers Nicole, she probably will not say anything to that person at that time. However, she will mentally keep track of everything this person does wrong to her until she cannot hold her emotions inside any longer. Then; Boom! Nicole will cloud up and rain all over them. And she will never regret telling someone off, because she knew what she was saying the entire time. She won't impulsively tell someone off. Emotional stories will not sway Nicole. She thinks totally with judgment, first considering every situation by the effect it will have on her. Nicole needs space and time alone. She will be much more efficient if given a job alone, rather than being surrounded by people.



People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Nicole doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.
