Food for thoughts...
When Wealth, Success and Love came knocking at your door, who will be the first you
invite?
A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beards
sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them.
She said, "I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please
come
in and have something to eat." Is the man of the house home?” they
asked.
"No", she said. "He's out." "Then we cannot come in," they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had
happened.
"Go tell them I am home and invite them in!"
The woman went out and invited the men in.
"We do not go into a house together," they replied.
"Why is that?" she wanted to know.
One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said pointing to
one of his friends, and said pointing to another one, "He is Success,
and
I am Love." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband
which
one of us you want in your home."
The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was
overjoyed. "How nice!" he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite
Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!"
His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don't we invite Success?" Their
daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She
jumped in with her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to invite
Love?
Our home will then be filled with love!"
"Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice," said the husband to his
wife.
"Go out and invite Love to be our guest."
The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, "Which one of you is Love?
Please come in and be our guest."
Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other 2 also got
up
and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success:
"I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?" The old men replied
together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us
would've stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we
go
with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success!"

Wonders of your memory...
Have it ever occur to you how memory works?
No....not the Random Access Memory (RAM) in your computer that you are using to read my mindless post now.....
No....not the molecular memory of materials like clay......
Yes....it's the very memory that you are using now to recognise whatever u are reading now....
Memory works best especially when u don't need to remember something....
Examples....
(1) Southampton won the FA cup in 1976. Their opponents are Manchester United and they won 1-0.
(2) Fish actually "urinates"....they do that by emitting ammonia through their gills and they do it constantly....and yes.....they actually drink.....
(3) I promise to do my best...to do my duty to GOD...and to the Republic Of Singapore....to help other people and to keep the Scout Law....... (last recited during 1992 before ending my short Cadet Scout "career" as a Sixer of the Yellow Pack......well...i only remember that my toggle is yellow in colour....ahhaha)
(4) 德明中学。。。矗立加东。。。亭亭松影。。。息息海风。。。。...oh....this reminds me of something that i don't need to know again....my written chinese sucks...
Well....why do i suddenly write something like this?
BECAUSE MY MEMORY FAILED ME TODAY!!!
IT FAILED ME WHEN I NEED IT TO HELP ME!!
I LEFT MY REVISION FILE ON MY TABLE AND FORGOT TO TAKE IT TO SCHOOL!!!
That's why i am home early...and able to compose this very true blog on memory....
Oh...i forgot to add... (pardon the irony)....memory fails you when u need it most
Have a nice weekend...

Something that warms the heart...
Guys,share with you a lovely message.
Love can warm your heart, makes it beats faster or even scarred it. Love doesn’t need reason, that’s what makes the beauty of it. Hope that this article can light up your spirit,this natural way!
Lady: Why do you like me? Why do you love me?
Man: I can't tell the reason, but I really like you.
Lady: You can't even tell me the reason, how can you say you like me? How can you say you love me?
Man: I really don't know the reason, but I can prove that I love you.
Lady: Proof? No! I want you to tell me the reason. My friend's boyfriend can tell her why he loves her but not you!
Man: Ok!!! Erm..because you are beautiful, because your voice is sweet, because you are caring, because you are loving,because you are thoughtful, because of your smile, because of your every movements.
The lady felt very satisfied with the man's answer.
Unfortunately, a few days later, the Lady met with an accident and was in a coma. The guy then placed a letter by her side, and here is the content:
"Darling, because of your sweet voice that I love you, now can you talk? No! Therefore Icannot love you.
Because of your care and concern that I like you, now that you cannot show them, therefore I cannot love you.
Because of your smile, because of your every movement that I love you, now can you smile? Now can you move? No, therefore I cannot love you.
If love needs a reason, like now, there is no reason for me to love you anymore.
Do love need a reason? NO!
Therefore, I still love you, and love doesn't need a reason.
Sometimes the best and the most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, cannot betouched, but can only be felt in the heart....."
Have a nice day.....

Dinner in NTU
Heh...i just came back from dinner in Canteen A. I had Japanese food....but that's besides the point.
Dinner makes me realise the "explosion of the Chinese (China) population" in NTU....
Well...as i am eating alone....all i have to do was to get a seat and eat my piping hot Japanese Katsu Don....so i grabbed a seat in between 2 tables of people.
One table...on my right, was occupied by 2 guys and a gal....while the other one on my left was occupied by 2 gals....
As i was alone ( yah i know i have mentioned it but i must emphasize it so that people will ask me for dinner next time)....i have nothing to do except mind my own business and EAVESDROP on people....haha...
Seems that the 3 people on my right are Chinaman...(okies...2 chinaman and 1 chinagal..happy?)...and they were discussing how the gal was DRESSED LIKE A SINGAPOREAN........
Huh??...dressed like a Singaporean?...u mean they wear cheongsam in China everyday? Or they wear those clothes u see in Period Dramas?
And so they continued talking and i got distracted by some loud chatting on my left.....
And yes...they are Chinagals...hahahaa
And the group on my right got up and left...some gayish looking guy came over with his friend and sat down....they are CHINAMAN!!!
I was like..."URGH!.....Singapore is becoming Little China!!"......
Just as i was thinking about that......
Someone came over and saved my lonely and "china-ed" dinner....
A lone INDIAN guy came over and asked me in his think accent...." Anybody sitting here??"
I smiled and said no...please go ahead......
Well..there are people from other countries after all....:P
Well....back to my studies...17 days to Exams....jia you ba!!

Mugging...
why is everybody mugging?
Is it because of the oncoming exams?
Is it for themselves?
Is it for their parents?
For me...i dun mug...i dun see the point.....i will forget everything by the time exam comes...
For every thing the devils (lecturers) teach, i will try to understand using my own way (layman terms) and try to relate it to everyday life.
In event that there is nothing for me to relate the topics to ( nanotechnology....we cannot even see nano stuff...i dun have bionic eyee...).....erm.....i just let it go lor
Okies...i think that's enough for today....I SHALL GO AND MUG NOW...hahahahaha
but....dun think anyone will believe me......................................

Discipline.....
Discipline is one good thing that we can all learn to have. It helps us finish our work on time. It prevents us from making stupid mistakes that you usually will not make. And most important of it all....it helps us to save money.
Why is it so?
Poor discipline lead to unneccesary spendings on food and stuff. Satisfying ur cravings is not a bad thing....but due to Man's greedy nature...one craving leads to another. Without discipline, you may end up giving in to all your cravings and worst...you will get fatter and poorer!
Poor discipline also lead to sleepless nights. How many times have we look back at our doings and said " If i have the discipline to start studying earlier...i will have done better...." or " If i have the discipline to do my tutorials...i will have done better for my CA".....of course..these are only with regards to studies. Imagine you, out in the society "squeezing" with all the "elites". Without discipline. how far can u climb up on the corporate ladder?
Poor discipline.....just look at me......i admit i have very poor discipline.....
How many times have i broken my resolutions?
How many times have i promised myself that i will not be rash yet i did otherwise?
How many times have i given in to my laziness?
How many times have i lose sleep over some stupid things i did in the heat of the moment?
I am a rash guy......sometimes i dun think too much when i do things.....perhaps it had nothing to do with discipline....perhaps it is because of my motto " If u never try...u will never know"......
Speaking of my motto.....sigh...i will leave it for another time....
Guys....i implore u.....have some DAMN DISCIPLINE!!
