"Once upon a time...
Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of aneighboring kingdom.. The monarch could have killed him but was moved byArthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, aslong as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have ayear to figure out the answer and, If after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death. The question was: What do women really want?Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, And toyoung Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, He accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end. He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: The princess, the priests, the wise men, and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone,but no one could give him a satisfactory answer. Many people advised himto consult the old witch, For only she would have the answer.. But the price would be high as the witch was famous through out the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged. The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first.. The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, The most noble of the Knights of the Round Table, And Arthur's closest friend! Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunch-backed and hideous, had only one tooth, Smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc.He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life.. He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden,But Lancelot, having learnt of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life. And thereservation of the Round Table. Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered. Arthur's question thus: 'What do women really want?'She said, 'Is to be in charge of her own life. 'Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth.And that Arthur's life would be spared.And so it was.The neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom.And Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.The honeymoon hour approached and, Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him.The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on the bed.The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened. The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, She would hence forth be her horrible and deformed self onlyhalf the time. And the beautiful maiden the other half.'Which would you prefer? She asked him.'Beautiful during the day ..... or at night?'Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the day he could have a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, But at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch! Or, Would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day? But by night a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous, intimate moments with?
(If you are a man reading this...) What would YOUR choice be?
(If you are a woman reading this) What would YOUR MAN'S choice be?
What Lancelot chose, is given below: BUT... make YOUR choice before you scroll down below... OKAY?
Noble Lancelot, knowing the answer the witch gave Arthur to his question, He said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself. Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time..Because, he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life. Now... what is the moral to this story?
The moral is:
1) There is witch in every woman no matter how beautiful she is!
2) If you don't let a woman have her own way, things are going to getugly.
So, always remember:IT'S EITHER 'HER WAY' OR IT'S 'NO WAY'!!!

after the formation day..
为什么爱从来不来到我身边,应该是我的问题吧。。: this will not be stuffs that i will normally say because i do not want to become self-centered and shallow minded.
i guess that incident(nth to do with BGR) has made me ponder on alot of things..
on my ability as a leader,
my determination,
me being true to myself.
this is the time when i felt like i jus bang my head on the wall to know that it is solid hard.
as said, the time has come where the result has hit me hard on the face(twice) and it is up to me whether i want to fight against and win or remain the same.
i want to be true to myself.
i know who are my comrades without words spoken. i will continue to fight as i promised. things has shown how 'great' our efforts are. so i shall not elaborate or twist and turn to make it sound nicer and comforting. it hurts so much to be singing "vow to sensei" when i did not fulfill it.
Sensei, i've let you down! am not worthy to be your disciple till i achieve absolute victory!
i will hold firm to my beliefs.
likewise, i will stop deceiving myself by thinking that you like me when in fact your actions is telling me that it is not. :P my antenna is short. sorry if i have created trouble or have been a nuisance. i will be clear and stop dropping hints.
my life now is for my mentor, my members and my dear family who has been holding on for so long. we muz change this and transform where we are to the Buddha land.
i need another 50% to explode. will it or will not, i mus strengthen myself so strong so that 1 week later when we have the review, i will be able to share my thoughts exactly and not be emotional.
Toda sensei says :"Your personal emotion as compared to the universe is only as tiny as a speck of dust."

have i missed out anything? what else do i need to bring is on my mind.. but more imptly, i think im not mentally prepared neh. :S have not been doing enough reachout.. hence, very very afraid of the turnout tml.. :S:S:S
alot is due to my last-min inform? and others..
in fact, those that i want to reach out to are those that WERE active or even leaders..
sent off my ywd who will be pursuing her dream of studies at her homeland.. i will miss you, yunya!
and XC is still in UK.. praying for her to realise her dreams, even if its not in singapore.. Gambatte to both!
anw, my attitude is the same as in, regardless of the turnout, i must cont to do my reachout and foster my YWDs who are still 'hot' in their passion.. :D i will touch:gan dong all of them!! i know ZONE has not much time thus i muz not disappoint her.
im seriously thinkin of buying mac.. its like so CHEAP.. but other than space constrain, other probs like OS compatibility will cause many inconveniences of me if i change without a backup. and the so-called recognised WD has crashed. send it to US? either i risk the physical lost or the virtual lost. SIGHHHHHHHH
and went shopping w hor-er.. the new OC has opened.. with not much shop.. the boutiques are also.. ahem ahem.. not my type? i think the fashion now is abit strange.. doesnt really cater to pple like me.. strangeeee. or maybe im the odd one out.. ha!

"This used to be a fun house ta da da da, dum dum dum
but now its full of evil clowns ta da da da, dum dum dum

sensei tells me..
"A person who cannot genuinely empathize with others can never excel as a leader. So much of what ails society today is the result of too many people in leadership positions who do not or cannot identify with the plight of their fellow men and women. It is in enduring pain and struggles that the earth of our humanity is cultivated. And it is from this earth that a capacity to be genuinely concerned for the welfare of others blossoms."

失落沙洲
徐佳瑩 失落沙洲 完整版MV 導演:徐筠軒
又来到这个港口 没有原因的拘留
我的心乘着斑驳的轻舟 寻找失落的沙洲
随时间的海浪漂流 我用力张开双手
拥抱那么多起起落落 想念的还是你望着我的眼波
我不是一定要你回来
只是当又一个人看海
回头才发现你不在
留下我迂回的徘徊
我不是一定要你回来
只是当又把回忆翻开
除了你之外的空白
还有谁能来教我爱
又回到这个尽头 我也想再往前走
只是越看见海阔天空 越遗憾没有你分享我的感动
我不是一定要你回来
只是当又一个人看海
回头才发现你不在
留下我迂回的徘徊
我不是一定要你回来
只是当又把回忆翻开
除了你之外的空白
还有谁能来教我爱

the funny waiter..
today was late for work again!! and my students r earlier than me lor.. GOSH, such a bad example. :S
lesson was bad. i need to be able to push my students even more. teaching is a tough job. im glad i dun have the intend to further into this kind of profession, neither am i a suitable candidate as a salesperson. XD
and after a looooooooooooong time, MH and me went to look for 'lin you jia' again.. wah.. i think i really became quite raw and bloated and stuffs. :S thoughts to terminate the contact thou.. unless anyone else wans to join me? :D
then i think the salesperson there also very clever lor.. pretend to chaoz after the class ended so we cant 'talk' to him. perhaps he got seventh sense leh.. hahaha.. and since he wasnt there, we went for our dinner.. a super fillin dinner man.. sinful.. and the waiter was damn funny la.. the first thing i noticed was that he walked very quickly and like a robot. o.O! then, was his height. i think it was 2m? and he could s-t-r-e-t-c-h.. without much effort to place stuffs from one end of a round table to the other end. like woah~
next was the way he talked. maybe because he was an indian so it especially added flavours and colors to his speech.. XD i was very much entertained. and towards the end, because my food came late(due to some reason, i didnt not catch wad was it) he kept apologizing and when i rejected his offer of 'chilli and tabaesco sauce' he said something like 'your mood is down already isit?' like quite loh sor and persistent but i think its his sincerity and concern towards customers' satisfaction.
in fact, two more interesting stuffs but im tired.
thats y i say i cant be a salesperson. i probably boh chup. XD
skippin prac this sun. :D
