07:53 am - You need to work on Love

Felt that I would wanna share this little expirience :-)

Mom was in my room yesterday using the computer and she saw a book lying on the bed - "The Love Language for Singles" by Dr Gary Chapman. She decided to read it. She told me about it when I reached home yesterday night. I said no prob as I had no time to go through it.

This morning, I asked her casually how was the book. She told me that it was reader friendly and interesting. She decided to share with me one of the stories that was depicted in the book. Here is my summary of it (from my mom's sharing):

A man went to see Dr Chapman about his porblem. He seemed unable to maintain a relationship. He shared that he had never exceeded 4 months for any of his relationships. Through exploration, Dr Chapman found out that he had not experience positive love. He did not know how to express love. He shared that his parents had not expressed it.

Dr Chapman told him to start showing love overtly. As this man was staying away from his parents, he did not have much contact with them. His task was to call his parents and find out how they were and the main task was to end of the conversation with a simple "I Love You". 

The man came back and shared his happiness. Apparently, whenever he did that, his parents would reply " I love you too" . This helped him to experience positive love. 

Interestingly, Dad feedbacked to me that it is not asian culture to do this, but I shared with him that times are changing and our old way of showing love would need to change. We may not want to hold on to conservative asian thinking of scolding and beating as a form of expressing our love.


To me, there were a few things that I picked up in just a simple sharing with mom and dad:

1) Love needs work. You cannot expect love and not give or show.
2) Not experiencing positive love(the usual excuse of it is asian culture) is not for us to use as an excuse. If we want something different, we need make changes.
3) Love and appreciations comes hand in hand. So let us be appreciative and not condamning

Let us all try to be appreciative of what others do. Show our love to people who we love (friends, parents, siblings, other family, partners). 

To all my friends on LJ "Thank you for being my friend, love you guys" :-D

You Are Seductive Flirt

Smoldering hot, you don't really flirt. You seduce. For you, flirting is just foreplay. You don't flirt unless it's going somewhere. You have one goal in mind when you flirt... And you usually get it!

11:13 am - A THREAT

WAH!! win liao......

I have done programmes and talks for 4 years and today was the 1st time i experienced a threat from a student.

6 people were random chosen and he was one of them I used to illustrate people passing negative esteem. At the end of the talk, he walked towards me and asked for my name and department. I casually told him and he told me to watch out.... Goodness!!! This talk has been conducted for years and nothing of such has ever happened.......

(Seriously) There is a strong feeling of wanting to send a formal complain letter to his teacher.... and also to inform the principle... Wah, what if something bad happens to me... :-S

(Jokingly) If you see my picture appearing in the newspaper... that means something bad happened.... choi choi choi (touch wood) Thank God I don't drive... if not jialat ah... hehe

(Next joke)... Dare to have so many piercing and still threaten me.... Hope all the piercing rot ah! Rot until you cannot talk ah! :p So mean hor... hehe... need to radicule the situation to make me feel better :p If not it might create a phobia for me to return back to the school to service them.

09:50 am - Nonsensical entry

A friend asked me to take the car yesterday as she wanted me to pick her GF from work... so I drove from one place to another place... Come to think of it, I do enjoy driving and like to go places... hehe, BUT...... I have a great fear of...... getting lost... hehe... that is y I always look up the directory before going anywhere... plan it out before heading out... BUT.... I still get lost... what is wrong with all the road signs... Why So Small!!!!... hehehe... or maybe i need to get my eyes check again... Come to think of it... I have not had my eyes checked for... errrr.... the last 5-6 years.... and have not been wearing specs (or contacts) for that long too... hehe

Oh, back to driving... Think I really want a car of my own :-D I want to go places and find out where the places are and don't want to get lost again.... hehe... come to think of it... Being a Taxi driver also can learn the roads hor.... hahaha... Possible career change... hehe... maybe can do Therapy In Cab (TIC)... hehe

11:55 pm - Some personal thoughts

I always feel that things function like a balance, you add weight to one side, it will drop downwards,if you add equal weights to the other side, it will balance... But if you were to try to be a smartass and add alot to one side... it will cause chaos :__|

This brings me to the idea of relationship and the concept of reciprocity... How much we say that we don't expect something from the person... we actually do...

- Like an adult who gives a child a sweet, he would expect a 'Thank you'...
- Like a wife who keeps asking the husband things, she would expect a full story of what happened...
- Like the husband asking the wife to have sex, he may expect her to start immediately... but
- Like the wife asking the husband to have sex, she may expect him to start with music and romance and foreplay...
- Like a girlfriend who always keep quiet to listen to her boyfriend, she would expect him to listen when the time comes...
- Like a friend who shared with you his/her birthday... how much they say that it is ok, they do hope that you will remember...


I truly believe that the balance of expectation (or hope) do exist... just a 2 cents worth of thinking... so if readers are to do something, there bound to be reciprocal effects... so do consider it carefully and maybe at times, let us all be slightly sensitive to others to make things better...

Hmmmm... think I might actually want to share about some conceptual thingy... maybe about coupleship? hmmm... AJ related? want me to share? let me know via my blog :-)

09:27 am - Stupid reflection about GE duty

Was activated for GE duty last sat. Did a stupid thing of telling my duty partner that if I was bored, I would start singing..... and I kept singing:

"Why do birds suddenly appear, everytime you are near.
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...."

Hehe, the best part was, I only knew this line... so I kept going on and on repeating it... and he was totally irritated by it and by 5pm (mind you, I started singing at 10 plus 11... hehe), he was grabbing his head and laughing frantically repeating that line... haha... and he said that if he were to hear this song anywhere, he will have recurring nightmares of GE and me... hahahaha....

Why am talking about sat's thing today.... Cos this song is still ringing in my head.... hahahaha..... lalalalala

11:42 am - Personality Test Result

Wah Cow! This thing sounds totally true.... sigh.... How ah?

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.


The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.


Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.


Your views on education:

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.
The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.


How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.


What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.


Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

08:06 am - Love VS Fear

Recently was thinking alot and this 2 words resurfaced. I recalled my lecturer sharing with me that all of us start with love but when we have a certain fear, we start behaving differently and that might affect the relationship.

When you love someone:
- You shower the person with your time
- You shower the person with your care and concern
- You tell the person "I love you"
- You give the person your undivided attention
- You give the person silly nicknames
- You give silly looks and both of you know what it means
- You constantly send terms of endearment through sms, mms, msn

When you start to fear losing someone:
- You tighten your control
- You become hyper-sensitive
- You extrapolate what could happen
- You become angry with the person for small mistakes
- You become too careful about what you want to say
- You start having doubts
- You make decisions that you might regret

I guess it is not easy to love someone unconditionally. Would we be able to just accept the fact that we love someone enough that our fear of losing the person will haunt us? Hmmmm, maybe that is why God is the only 1 who can give unconditional love. In man, all our love seems to come with a certain condition.

It is not easy to love and fear at the same time. Can we love someone without the fear? Or can we recognise the fear and allow the other party to know about it? What do you guys think?
