i shant name names here...
but maybe like what A said about B is true... B lives in B own's world... i juz feel so unjustified! y cant B at least appreciate... instead of saying things so crudely... simple comments like these, even if it means its in a jokingly manner, which is most of the time, can be rather hurtful... it turns me off...
A also asked y do we people have to say wat e world wants us to say? y cant we juz say what we truely wanna say... y do we care so much abt wat e world thinks abt us?
Emotional Labour... Emotional dissonance... in e long run, its bad for one's well-being...
oh ya! i got to say it... it pays to be hardworking, by going to e library to do some work... but i shant tell u y... but yea! i'm happy... hehe...

these few days... i've been having this stronger than usual usual feeling tat e presence of God is with me... i juz know tat he is there with me as i do even e little things in life... He provides... He shows me e way... He grant me e peace and enjoyment... its juz so amazing... amazinglu true... yea!
hmm had fencing juz now... yea! had fun... so cool... i'm juz falling in love with fencing... e fencing pple are a great butch of cool pple too... can easily click with them... yea!
recently, set a record breaking number of books borrowed from library... so far, from National Library, i borrowed 4 books, but its under dad's name... and 9 from Central Library... woohoo! i've been reading quite a bit... well, its no choice, but have to... and i'm slowly mastering e skill of speed reading n only pick out e relevent part... yea! its like, during my biz project meeting juz now... while discussion was going on, i managed to speed read and flip thr e whole book... haha...
somehow get irritated with somebody who copy every single thing i write during lect... i really mean every single thing... ask me wats going on for everything tat tat person cant catch... peep over to see wat i have constantly... take my whole report which i painfully wrote and juz read it... its COPYWRITE... esp knowing tat tat same person need to do e same assignments too... no way am i going to share... no way are u going to steal my grade... i'm competing with u, excuse me... wahaha... i know i sound selfish and not helpful... but if its like all e time, week after week after week... and tat person hardly even help me... tit for tat... juz being realistic, we're living in this 'survival of e fittest' campuse... at times like this, how do u juz ask tat person to stop it? how do u reject? i find it really hard to say it juz straight in e face...

wow! having to study about reasoning n logic is something very mentally drainy... its the simple and basic thing in life, that is so tough to study and understand on... understand as in, why we think this way, why it happens, why makes it happens and actually realise wat we subconsciously think about etc... and then u realise after studying reasoning, tat a lot of statements spoken n written in our everyday life are actually logically incorrect... yea...
well juz done with a crappy business plan... or rather only the small part allocated to me... wow! a market business plan has so many categories and headings... easily 15-20 or even more pages more... wow! i had to research on our competitors and analyse, but e facts i get online are juz insufficient.. they are only stuff tat public pple need to know, not wat their competitors need to know to outbeat them... wahaha... oh well... haha... now wat i learn in econs on like "consumer choice" comes into practise... but how much of my econs theory can i use... not to say those marketing major pple, they say theory is theory, practical is another thing altogether... wahaha
time flies... like today fly fly fly away...
