I Wish I Brought My Cam Today!!

Ok, so I'm watching my classmates presenting their final report for e-Commerce right now. They are so good at it, that I'm feeling intimidated by the stuff that they have. omG. They are so good at it. I wonder how I'm going to embarass myself in 2 weeks time... :'(
I have to keep this in mind:

"Being intimidated will make things worst; So prepare all you can, and go all crazy with confidence!"

*kiss, kiss*

The things he says

Ok, I am that typical female analysing every words and movements that people make. I hope my boyfriend won't freak out when he reads this.
I believe that we can read a person by taking note of what he/she is saying, and through the way they speak. I might be wrong, but all these here, are just a part of my own observation as a 'sometimes' quiet individual. To move on, let us focus on the two things I mentioned earlier that you should take note on: the words that are being said, and the way they are said.

Please do take note that if there are anyone out there reading this, who may be offended by some of the stuff I'm babbling about here, I am just doing this for the sake of... I don't know... "to kill boredom before I start with some academic reading, after having to listen to some old Destiny's Child's tracks... (eg: "Can you pay my bills?"~ Bills, Bills, Bills)". lol.

So here goes...

When a guy talks bad about you (the girl) from the back, 2 probable reasons that may contribute for this to happen might be:
a) he's offended with some thing that you've done... or
b) he wants you, but he doesn't know how to get you.
Example:

• He would say something like. 'I can't stand her bitching about people all the time' (usually guys won't bother unless if 'it'[her bitching] had affected him)... and
• 'She's okay, but I find her boring,' (sometimes, he will actually mean it, but look closely, sometimes there might be other meanings attached to it).

When he mumbles to you something that you could barely understand (well, he's mumbling, bah!), in a way, this guy's trying to tease you OR maybe, he's just afraid that he may get rejected. Lol.
For example:

• 'Would you jjrrr jrjr...me?' (translation: would you go out with me?)~ he's trying to invite you out, but he doesn't have the guts to do so.
• *he whispers*: 'Be my date', and then when you ask him to repeat what he said again clearly, he'll tell you that he was only talking to himself.

Other than that, Mr Man may tell you a lot of things about himself, he might open up to you on things, but he may also say something that could mean another. I am such a typical female. Lol.

Some guys might be really open on things. This may be caused by his confidence. Confidence is not really ego. Ego is when a person believes that he/she is right -- almost all the time, and he/she is so right that his/her beliefs should become a standard for other people. Annoying eh. Confidence, on the other hand, can be related to ego and pride. Confidence is when one knows that he/she is the best, and he/she is very proud of it. It's a good thing actually, because I believe that the people from this group have less to be sad about, because they're selfish.Thus they have little to worry about, and more to be happy about. And God knows that I want to be 'that' badly, but I can't. I guess it's about being positive. Lol.

So when a guy confidently tells you everything (all the good things) about himself, he's actually trying to offer himself to you. HAHAH. No, I'm just kidding. He's actually testing you, and he's trying to get it out of your mouth that you want him the way other girls would want him as well. He'll tell you that he can read you from the 'flickers' in your eyes, or the giggles in your voice, or even the excitement in your words. But when he gives up, he knows but well enough that he's worth more than to just wait for your acceptance (reply to his offer~ LOL. macam contracting jak).
Examples include:

• 'Darling you have the best looking eyes,'...wait for a few minutes or seconds,after a brief talk about something else, '... and girls always approach me when they spot me alone.' He seriously can't help it but to make you notice that he's something you cannot resist.
• Sometimes, this dude might tell you, 'I can help you with *this&that*', because he knows that he can do anything, and that he has everything.

Next is Mr Opportunist. He's not my ideal man, but when being opportunistic could benefit me, I won't mind much. Lol.

Opportunistic guys won't hide much of his opportunistic manner from you. Once he had charmed you with sweet words and his so-called commitment, he'll slowly ask for things from you. Examples are as exhibited:

• He will start by asking you: 'Babe, can I borrow *little stuff* from you?' Then...
• 'Honey, I am going to do *something very important~ coughs: lies*, can I use your *significant stuff*'. OHOHO... If he's that guy, RUN, Babe, RUN! Next thing you know, he's with some other chick, taking hold of you *significant stuff*~ eg: car.

There are no such thing as Mr Right, because Mr Right might be Mr A-Lot-of-Things-You-Don't-Know-Yet.

Mr So-Called-Right might tell you that you are the one. And if you're me, you'll ask yourself again and again... 'Am I?'. He will tell you that he prefers you to be that good girl all the time, so that he can sneak on to the other side when you're still focused on the 'good side'. Lol. Funny, but some people, like myself, can't take dishonesty, so I reject to the notion that you have to be an angel to take hold of a Mr Right. No Siree~ it doesn't work that way. With an open and positive mind, you'll be surprised to see the truth that's been there all the while. I'm not complaining (if you think so, it's up to you. lol), I am just explaining my perception on things like this. I mean, when you commit yourself in a relationship, you should already know that the foundation of such thing is trust, right? Then why lie, and wait to get caught? Lol. Better tell the truth, whether you're having a huge crush on your bestfriend, or that you still miss your ex. Things could work out when the truth is known.

Next category of guys I can think of now is, Mr Flirt. He's good with words, he's super friendly, BUT he's got his own barrier that separates you and him. He will tell you a million good things about you, and he'll make you feel like you're the best-looking person on the face of the earth, but he will never leave out that he's just another guy who is not interested in you. And one thing that will make you super comfortable interacting with him is that he'll make fun of you everytime after he praises you. He knows that he means it ;P . Playing hard-to-get ah, you? Lol. But these group of guys are super nice to have around, especially if they are good-looking. Wouldn't you want to have such friend? Lol.

Possible signs that he loves you is when he:

• doesn't get tired of you nagging all the time
• will always try to be the only guy that you can depend on
• gives you a lot of sufficient advice
• will help you tell between what is right and what is wrong (and you yourself should know what both are, so that you can detect if he's right)
• offers you his help, because he'd hate not to heroic. lol
• never regret being a fool for you.

In conclusion: I don't know if I'm right, but it's great to let things out like this. hehe.

So what do you do?

Hey Hey. Here I am again. I am disappointed with myself. But yeah, let go of the past, embrace the present as we reach for the future.
I've got lots to do. None of them won't be hard if I could just start doing them now. I will and I'm not going to stop. I miss Sin. I shouldn't say that, because it'd be against my egoistic code to say that. But yeah, I miss him. He's been super sweet despite my own condition these days. How could he have survived that?


I couldn't do things because I was scared. I was scared. Am I still afraid now? Let us hope I'll be over this foolishness.

(If You're Wondering If I Want To) I Want To

By Weezer
The moon was shining on the lake that night
The Slayer t-shirt fit the scene just right
Through smeared mascara,
I looked into your eyes and saw a light

You told me stories about your chickadees
They didn't like BB guns and stupid archery
You charmed the lifeguard he let them use the pool all day for free

Then the conversation stopped and I looked down at my feet
I was next to you and you were right there next to me then I said

Girl, if you're wondering if I want you to
I want you to
So make a move, 'cause I ain't got all night

The rest of the summer was the best we ever had
We watched Titanic and it didn't make us sad
I took you to Best Buy, you took me home to meet your mom and dad

Your mom cooked meatloaf even though I don't eat meat
I dug you so much, I took some for the team
Your dad was silent, his eyes were fixed on what was on TV

Then the conversation stopped and I looked down at the ring
Your folks were next to you and you were right there next to me then I said

Girl, if you're wondering if I want you to
I want you to
I swear it's true,
without you my heart is blue
Oh, oh, ah, oh

Girl, if you're wondering if I want you to
I want you to
So make a move, 'cause I ain't got all night

So much pain may come my way
Then may come a day when we have nothing left to say

When the conversation stops and we're facing our defeat
I'll be next to you, and you'll be right there next to me then I'll say

Girl, if you're wondering if I want you to
I want you to
I swear it's true, without you my heart is blue
Oh, oh, ah, oh

Girl, if you're wondering if I want you to
I want you to
So make a move, 'cause I ain't got all night
Woo!

P/S: :D

Demotivated Mind

Slow. That's one feeling I am having right now. Motion seems slow as well. I am fairly demotivated. I have to get over it. I don't have time to feel sad or lonely or sorry for myself or anyone at all. Where the hell did that strength hilang?

huhhhhh....

Practice what you Preach

So here, I am going to enforce my preaching. I will, hereby, Practice what I have been preaching. I will keep on thinking positive. I will be hardworking (oh susah mok cakap if i barely mean it). I will be strong. I will be good, and never care about what other people's been saying about the stuff I did or the I'm doing because I know that I am doing the right thing! :D Hopefully, things will be better in time!

It's Friday Again~

It's Friday again, and I'm having mixed feelings of relief, confusion and stress... Impossible, right? But it's so. I am relieved that I'm done with CI assignment, I'm confused about the things that people have been doing, and I am very stress that I've got so many other stuff to start on right after today.
It's Friday again, and I hope that God is listening to my pleas right now: Help me stay positive, O God. Help me stay focus. Help me to succeed in life, and help me escape the unnecessaries.

Love,
~nuTt*~

I want to type something here. But my neck's killing me. And due to the neck pain, I am developing a fit. This fit is preventing my brain from functioning the right way. I am in pain. I am not supposed to be sick. I wish I could pull my head off, and take of this neck for awhile. So that I can continue reading boring discussions and rulings.

IT IS FRIDAY, BABY!

Keluargaku, Di Aidil Fitri <3

I miss these people! I am so glad that they came back for Eid even if I couldn't find much time with them, then though~ Looking through these photos, I wished I spent more time with them... but it's okay... sik lamak gik! :D

Whatever it is, I hope that they know that I love them, and that I'm missing them BADLY! <3

x,

Lines That Read My Thoughts

"...But I promise you this,

I'll always look out for you...

...My heart is yours.

It's you that I hold on to.

That's what I'll do.

But I know I was wrong,

And I won't let you down..."

(Sparks, by Coldplay)

What did you think I was doing?

Why am I still here?

Okay. I am panicking. I have no good reasons to do so, but I am. I am trying hard not to doze off in class (oh, tipu. I'm not even tired knowing the fact that I woke up at 4.40am for breakfast just now), or am I just leading myself to procrastination -- again! sheesh.
All right. I have mighty loads of things to do and slowing down now or doing anything else, but what I am supposed to is won't help me in anyway.
So, excuse me, Blog... I need to squeeze out my creative brain..

*kiss, kiss*

That Lonesome Day

Eyes were on the ground
As my head was facing down
Tears trinkled through
With my cries, did not resound.
No one would ever know
None would ever go.
But I'm thankful that this is done,
that lately, I had learnt to run.
Running was never, ever my field
Since running would turn my way back there
The world is round, as we might know..
So, running around to me, means stay.
Probably, there are some issues
Perhaps, there are also dues
But somehow I manage to find my route
That knowing every day,
and in every way...
I'll be better in time
And I will work, I would bleed
Just to get away, away from that need.

Issue 124 - Take the Leap Feedback (My Recipe for Leaping out of Bed and into Work)

Autonomy / independence
Your profile suggests that your top ingredient, or anchor, is autonomy / independence. This means that what you need most from your career is the chance to define your own work in your own way. Above else, you need a sense of freedom. Positives Some traditional organisational jobs allow a great deal of this kind of freedom, but often people with this anchor opt for self-employment or for jobs that are highly autonomous - such as freelance consultants, setting up independent small businesses or field sales. At your best you:

• Can offer potential employers the complete package: what needs to be done, how to do it and when.
• Don't need close supervision to get things done. You're already on the case.
• Are more flexible and so can offer creative solutions to tricky problems.

What to watch out for

You may be reluctant to leave an organisation that allows you flexibility regarding when and how to work. Opportunities for promotion or advancement may be turned down by you in order to retain autonomy. What you might try For you, freedom is paramount. Try these tips below:

• Consider your present job. Does it offer sufficient autonomy? What specifically in your career allows you some independence?
• How can bring more autonomy into your role at work?
• What opportunities satisfy your need for independence outside of work? Is there any way you can turn your outside interests into a career.
• If you really can't see any way to bring more autonomy into your present role, what other types of work would provide you with a better sense of freedom?

And now the science bit

In a study of 28 hospital cleaners (Wrzesniewski, 1997) with the same official job description it was found some cleaners saw it as a means to earning money (a job), others a way to become a supervisor (a career) and others saw themselves as playing a critical part in healing patients and anticipating the needs of the doctors (a calling). So, like any job, hospital cleaning can be all three - a job, a career or a calling. A job is what you do this for a pay cheque. You do not seek other rewards from it. It is just another means to an end. And when the wage stops, you quit. A Career entails a deeper personal investment in work. You mark your achievements through money, but also through advancement. When the promotions stop, you look elsewhere for gratification. A Calling is when you have a passionate commitment to work for its own sake. Individuals with a calling see their work as contributing to the greater good. The work is fulfilling in its own right without regard for money or advancement. The research demonstrates that, it's not the job description or the day-to-day tasks that give people a sense of working in a calling. Rather, it is how the person perceives what they do, whether their role provides them with a sense of meaning and purpose and how they view the impact their role had on a greater cause.

Edgar Schein developed 8 life anchors that reflect our basic values, motives and needs. Of the 8 anchors there are usually one or two that we won't give up. Knowing what these are is important because when choices have to be made our anchors come into play and become a driving force behind the decisions that we make. Our anchors evolve once we begin our working life and then generally remain stable across our adult life. Schein used the metaphor of anchor because once we know what our top two anchors are we track how these have floated with the different career paths we've taken throughout life. So just like an anchor we won't forgo this basic need however we use the insight to see how we can adapt our situations to be consistent with our anchors.

The First Day of Ramadhan, 2009!

Hello, hello! Friends, family and anyone who's reading this~ Happy Ramadhan Al-Mubarak!I had a nice Friday yesterday, and I felt joyful beyond belief! :P (too much there, k!) Magical Friday, it was. I feel blessed in every way.

Today, Saturday, happens to be the first day of Ramadhan this year, and yep, I am fasting! :) Guess what I've been doing last night. Something kept me up late... I think Sin was turned off by me not listening to the first half of our conversation. Okay, okay.. I did this:

No, dear. Not the drawing. I did the sketch last year, in July. I think I posted a sketch like this on in one of my blog postings. Whatever it is.. what do you think? exuve is this something that I just joined yesterday, to do some e-Commerce Strategy report (on Crowdsourcing). And I guess they required the participant to let them know the inspiration for the design. I submitted! But I'm not sure if it reached the site. I badly hope so. Sin said they're gonna steal my design and bla bla bla.. For now, I don't mind. This is part of my dream. I wanna succeed somewhere, but exposure might be the important thing for Step 1. Yep, I'm still in Step 1. Lol.

Happy Ramadhan Al-Mubarak everybody, to all the Muslims and the non-Muslims! :) I love Malaysia. Hidup Perpaduan (Long live Unity!) Lol.. Thanks to Muneera Said, I became a crazy patriotic Malaysian. Okay, okay... lol

Until then,

xo~
