Should Women learn to be independent?

Today I had a interesting conversation with my colleague. One of the topic was that her boyfriend asked her to learn to be independent and I was telling her: ” If you learnt to become independent, what do you need a boyfriend for?”

I believe that all women were independent in some ways. But at the end of the day, they still like to have a guy to give them a hug when they are cold, give them a shoulder to cry on when they are sad, and give them flowers and sweet words to make them feel important.

In today’s society where women demands equal social treatment as men, no matter how capable is women in terms of career or family, I believe that they need us just as much as we need them. Today, you can find women around you who choose to be single because majority of them in my opinion, were too independent that either their expectation of potential is too high or they seem so out of reach by other guys.

As for me, I prefer women who knows when to be independent and when to depends on me. That may sound difficult to some of you out there but it is actually common sense to girls who have experience in relationships. If you still have no clue of what I am saying, do yourself a favour and go read some books like Man are from Mars and Women are from Venus.

The Lion is awoken!

Got a lecture this afternoon over some stupid issue regarding lunch time and it force me, the sleeping lion to wake up and cause terror once again. Why only aim at me whereas I’m not the mastermind behind all these. Why lecture me in front of the reception desk where all my colleagues were passing by?

Because of this, you have awaken a sleeping lion. You now have the chance to see the “other side” of him. You will see a lion roar in front of you stupid face when you confront him. You will wish that you will appreciate him more than treating him like a dirt.

If its war you want, its war that you will get. I can assure you that when the lion goes hey wire, no one and I mean no one, can stop him. This lion has put up with your bullshit long enough. You don’t appreciate his comedy, you will definitely remember the horror and tragedy that he will give you.

The Frozen Prince

Someone asked me why did I put my nick as prince Adon on my friendster. The reason is simple, I’m a frozen prince, a prince whose heart has been encaged within a frozen chamber, waiting for the right girl to melt it away with her love. Let me tell you a love history of this frozen prince.

Since secondary school I’ve been rejected by countless girls because I’m fat and ugly. It was only till my poly days that my lady luck starts coming as I gotten slimmer and took care of my face. But luck it seems, is not without a sense of ironry. All the girls that I’ve dated broke up with me within a matter of weeks. Reason: Im too nice to them.

The Final blow came during my army days when my girl whom we both have feelings for each other, get to know another guy who is a playboy and ended up with him. I felt sad and angry. “Why did she left me over a jerk whom I know that he will only hurt her in the end?”

From that moment, I realised that girls doesn’t like nice guys, they prefer jerks who will hurt them in ways they never imagine and still wanna be with them. I’ve decided to become one of them. I’ve placed my heart within a block of ice so that no one can ever hurt me like they did in the past.

I’ve became emotionless, cold, shut down and hence I call myself the Frozen Prince. Waiting, waiting for someone to be able to melt the ice and warms my heart like it once was.

Finally… The wait is over…

After so many days of waiting, my offer has finally arrived. Throughout the process I kept wondering if they will hire me, or they will stop the recruitment cause the economy is in downturn nowadays. Guess that what you think may not be the reality after all. Knowing the outcome felt like a burden being released from my shoulders, giving me a breathe of fresh air.

Right now, I’m feeling so excited like there is a rush of adrenaline through my veins. Just the thought that I’ll be able to work in such a MNC is like knowing that your wife is pregnant and your mind is filled with all sorts of thoughts: “What should I name the baby?, Should I start to buy the clothing?

And of course, I know that I can’t be too happy yet because I have to start preparing myself for the challenges that Im about to face. Everything is going to according to my plan so far, except for a few changes that I’ve made to be more congruent to my long term goals.

Patience…my friend, patience

My life has been a little bit stagnant for the past 2 weeks. Perhaps that is what you get when you dun have a girlfriend who will spice up your life. I think the most terrible thing for me now is to wait. To wait for a confirmation of a job that I was interested in, waiting for my driving test, waiting my girl to break up with her bf so that i can replace him (just joking) and waiting for the confirmation of my admission into uniSim.

But then again, maybe all these waiting is a test of my patience, which I’m really a sucker in. Scientists took years of research before a breakthrough which helps thousands or even millions of people with their creation. Imagine what would happen if they dun have the patience of doing that.

Investing also requires patience, if Warren Buffet does not have the patience to invest his money for so many years, would he have became the legendary billionaire investor that he is now today? I believe that there some things in life needs time to slowly form and you got to just accept it.

Just take a look at the current financial crisis in US and you will understand that the main culprit is actually greed and impatience. If those banks are patient enough to allow their sales or profit to gain steady and not invest into those high risk mortgage loans which were doomed to fail in the 1st place, people wouldn’t lost so much money and banks wouldn’t need to declare bankrupt. 

Luckily, through exercises like Yoga, Meditation and recreation like Fishing and Chess which helps you to build up your patience and in time, builds up your wealth. Remember, one of the rules to become wealthy is be patient.

Do you believe in Destiny?

Went to a fortune teller from Middle East after being recommend by my friend. He told me that I have the look of a successful person but the luck will only arrive in 3 years time. During this period, I will be struggling with my career and and the main point right now is to get a girlfriend.

He mentioned that my weakness is my low confidence in which I totally agree. And he also warned me not to get into any form of credit issue during this 3 years. Well I wouldn’t say to that whether his predication is true or not. Lets just say that he told me everything that I needed to hear.

There are some things in life which cannot be explained by science and I truly believe that you can’t change your destiny but you can change your luck. For example, everyone is destined to die but your luck will determine how and when you will die. And your luck is determined by the good deeds you have done.

Even if you are destined to become a millionaire but you cause harm to others, your luck change your millionaire status to be short lived and may even get into legal trouble. Of cause, that is if you believe in destiny…

Degree, not worth it if you use your own money.

I was having a friendly chat with my friends after a game of basketball when one of them was thinking about further study to get a degree, which was what I had in mind all along. Only that he can’t really afford the payment and he got a son to take care of. Sometimes its ironic, some people have the financial means to further study yet they dun appreciate it, yet some people badly wanted to get a education but they have to slog day in day slog and save whatever they have for the course fees or textbooks.

Since my application for uniSim will probably not be accepted, I’ve searched for other course which suit my interest and sad to say, they are so expensive that I’ll have to work at least 6 years to recover my course fee without saving any money. Which left me with 2 choice, Either get my next company to subsides my school fees or keep waiting for my uniSim application for next year July.

Chances for the Jan intake looks slim…

Called up uniSim today to find out my chances for the Jan 2009 intake as I have not been called up for an interview yet. From the way she sounds, seems like my chances are slim. Then I have this image of a wall standing in front of my path. It happens everytime when Im trying to get to a point like closing a deal, learning a new skill or even chasing after a girl.

However I know that I may not have the power to change the events that happens onto me but I definitely have the resources of how to react to it. Those events are nothing except feed backs  for me to change my strategy accordingly to get what I want. If I can’t get into the Jan intake, I’ll just wait for the July intake and apply with other universities at the same time. Meantime I’ll just work and earn enough school fees so that I wun burden myself with the study loan.

Her Dream is to watch her kids grow up…

Was watching channel 8 just now when I came across this documentary of a breast cancer patient whose dream was to watch her daughter and son grow up. This seems impossible as her cancer cells has spread to her liver, brain, bones etc. Yet she faced up to reality with courage and hope, appreciate every seconds that she spent with her family and friends. To know more about her, please go to http://shinscancerblog.blogspot.com

I’ve lost my mother to Leukaemia 15 years ago and I remembered her telling me in tears that she can’t bear to leave my sister and I. I believe its the love that kept her going for 2 more years before it took her away from me. Now my granny is my acting mum, loving me and taking care of me like her own child. And its my granny’s love that kept me away from bad company and striving to be a better person every single day.

So here is my message. Love your family, your friends and all those around you who care for you. Don’t ever regret it if one day they are gone.

Confusion Mode

Spent the last couple of days researching into options and learning whatever it is to learn from. Blogs, Books, Courses etc. Found out actually the current market is not really suitable for options trading as the implied volitatily is so high that its eating your profits (if you have any) faster than anything. In my humble opinion, time is the most important aspect in times like this because it takes time for the market to realise the value of some good companies that produce good earnings, strong sales and less debt.

Of course. this opinion comes from someone who have not actual trading experience nor strong background in options and definitely, there is someone who is out there making tons of money trading options and being a newbie in trading. I will take more time to find out more. Just that without the right guidance and trying to learn to trial and error makes you confused.
