+ Disappointments +
1st disappointment over the week was when i had my hopes too high over my nokia 7610...my very nice colleague called (stupid) Andrew told mi he saw a M1 distributor shop in queensway selling my 7610 at $468!!! I was like so thrilled i wished i could dashed to queensway shopping centre from work rite then but of cos i refrained from doing stupid things like that..the next day i decided to pop by the centre to check it out. I kept asking Andrew sure not..y so cheap...wat kinda plans? He said sure lar..even tok to the person inside..new line any plans...so gez wat? When i went to checked it out, the poster outside did quote the phone at 468...upon asking the person THEN i found out 468 is the $200 trade-in price... -_- SIANZ...the person muz have seen the look of disinterest on my face upon hearing that..waste my time, cheat my feelings..tsk
Well 2nd disappointment came juz onli 5 minutes ago. Checked my yahoo account and found out that my application for a job in Institute of bioengineering and nanotechnology(IBN) has been cruelly REJECTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eh i juz sent it on wed lor..and by fri the person replied saying there's no avaliable positions for mi...but apparently there's a job opening in their website!!!! wat the hell. My confidence and watever small dignity i had completely dashed...ruined...IRRITATED!!!!!! NOW i don't even know if i shd apply for glaxosmithkline cos my confidences has been completely ruined...i wish they hasn't replied, at least i won't feel so ...useless... NOw xiaoying..don bother to try IBN liao..hai
Anyway, disappointments aside..betta things gonna come my way!! NEW phones are going to b released within this 2 weeks...know wat that means? that means...my 7610 gonna at least drop in some value!!! yeah yeah!! The long wait....finally gonna pay off...but the thing is.. one of the phones released is i think a betta improved version of 7610..hmm..NVM!! i've onli got my eyes fixed on 7610!!! And one other phone N6260 that i've been waiting and probably tot of buying oso coming out soon..finally...silly how pple has to wait and wait for some phones to come out..mayb it's betta not to know wat phones are going to come out too early...like i knew abt 7610 a few mths b4 it's luanched and till now ive aldy waited for wat? 4-5 mths??? to get that damn phone?! hai....when will i get it?!??!!BY the way..wonder where i get to see wat phones would b in the market?? it's at www.cnetasia.com.sg it's a cursed site.
Another update..my mom's work has finished. SO she would b staying home from now on..which to mi isn't a very gd thing altogether...she's aldy starting her naggings...expect more naggings abt the rabbit, abt my messy room and abt everything..oh well... but now my dad got company at home so not so bad..i'm not so worried abt him aldy. Hai wish i can get out of all her naggings...i can't wait to get out of this hse now..
Watched THE TERMINAL on sunday nite. I found it really nice. Very funnie. But i heard critics didn't give this movie much ..i think movie critics are so stupid. Gd shows becomes trash and trashy cheap humor becomes great movies for them. I shd be THE movie critic. They got no eyes to appreciate gd shows. The Terminal could b classified under a nice family movie category. Cos it's got no great actions, no fantastic sceneries nor special effects but it's got great humor, witty and presents an interesting way of life and funnie pple working in the airport. IT is NOT a romance movie...cos apparently some pple thinks the movie sux cos onli an hr into the movie did Catherine Zeta Jones appeared and some love blossomed....it's not even abt that! aiyoo...hai
I've been quite busy..so i hasn't read all of my dear frens' blog recently.. would get down to catching up with ur blogs soon!
ANyway juz something to share..which Xiaoying put up on her blog. I think it's very meaningful and i'm sure it would bless all of u too, hope xiaoying don mind i ripped if off her blog :p
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who won't survive the week.
If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 20 million people around the world.
If you attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death, you are more blessed than almost three billion people in the world.
If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
If your parents are still married and alive, you are very rare.
If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful,you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.
If you can hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on the shoulder, you are blessed because you can offer God's healing touch.
If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read anything at all.
You are so blessed in ways you may never even know.If you are feeling blessed, repay the blessings bestowed unto you and do something for others.A blessing cannot be kept. If it stops with you, then the blessing will disappear. The blessing will only keep working if it is continuously passed around. If you are a recipient of a blessing, keep the blessing working by being the source of blessing to other people.
Indeed.. we are very blessed. Too bad my mom doesn't know it. KNow wat she said to mi juz now?!?! SHe told mi to move the position of my bed and the furnitures back to its original position cos apparently now that my bed is juz facing the door is a no no in feng shui. WHO CARES ABT FENGSHUI?!?!?!! I'M A CHRISTIAN I BELIEVE IN GOD AND GOD ALONE!! And know wat? My mom is also a christian lor...and wat she said broke my heart after that. She said she doesn't really believe anymore after all she's gone thru. She said ..she onli believes in herself and she believes in everything...(??? i donoe wat she's toking abt) She also said that..God is onli a source of relief..something for u to emotionally rely on..He won't really help u. ANd back to fengshui...i was pissed juz cos of fengshui she wans to move my furnitures back..FENGSHUI?!?!?!?!!!! She said it would affect me...and i asked her..affected mi in wat? I don see wat's wrong with my life? AND she said...my career...see till now i still don have a perm job. *faint* *disgust all over my face* watever. MY ROOM IS NOT GOING TO B CHANGED IN ANY WAY, NOTHING WOULD B MOVED AND IT SHALL REMAIN MESSY. NO TOK ABT IT. Let's see if God wins or feng shui wins...God WOULD provide mi a job.
It's funnie how when things goes wrong pple blame God for it and then turn to things like fengshui?! If i say God is in control of ur life, He's got u in his Hands, ur forever in good care..would pple believe? Yet when others say oh...if u move this here and put this there and seal this door u would b rich, ur money won't flow out, u would have gd life and pple believes in that. Y do u believe in THINGS and empty words than a God who could have a personal relationship with u? Y do pple believe in words spoken by man's stupid wisdom than God's wisdom? Why is it that when gd things happened to u and u credit it to Fengshui and not God? WHo do u wan to credit to ? The furnitures? The stupid nonsense that fengshui masters spoke off? haha...rubbish..the masters can't even agree on anything that's the same lor..u ask 2 masters and they prob give u 2 different opinions of how u shd do ur things. If u gonna abide in every single crap they tell u u would juz make ur life miserable. Y don u live in a place where nothing blocks ur view from ur hse? y don u live in a place where tehre's no cross roads infront of ur hse..or betta still have a river running pass ur place ??? PUt dried orange skins at all corners of ur hse? put stones in ur hse? Put a pot of water there? Seal that door? Put a mat here? Don put ur bed facing the toilet and the door? Stupid crap of nonsense. I'm sorrie if i offended anyone but seriously do go think abt wat really is fengshui and the nonsense pple interpret out of it..
