So... after completing a marathon viewing of my korean drama serial on mysoju.com, i decided to check out 'speadelove.com'. ANyway, the drama serial ending was crap! my handsome guy didn get to be together with the gal! Ok. i sound bimbotic now... anyway, i clicked on the latest post and chekc this out:
A group of people were asked to look and observe at pond full fishes. At the end of it, there were asked to describe what they see in as much detail as possible.
There were two distinct responses that came out of this little exercise.
One group of people would vividly describe how a fish looks like, how it swims, the different colors it has. They were very meticulous with the details.
Another group would describe the pond, give a rough estimate of the number of fishes and also talk about the pond's surrounding.
Regardless of their responses, both groups were very successful at what they do and excel in it. One noticable difference is that they generally work at a different levels in their organizations, whether as a person who gets things done or a person who plan how things gets done.
What do you see?

Trust me, i totally cracked up laughing. How anti-climax to a supposedly 'philosophical' and 'poetic' post...... awww.... i'm mean... hahha. who cares. gives me a good laugh!
I'm a dreamer. I am unrealistic. I'm a sinner, but I try to stay optimistic. I see the norm as abnormal. The norms make me mull. Life is short. Live life to the fullest.

positive psychology
So, I've found a new interest in the area of psychology: positive psychology.
As I was preparing the vision and goal of our group's outline for youthforcase, I googled 'positive psychology'. Lo and behold, it returned a result of 'Positive Psychology Center' in Uni of Penn. at the top of the list. And guess what, DR Seligman (YES, the guy who created 'learned helplessness'!) is the director of the centre! HAha.. how cool is that! Its like having a rock star in your school. HAH.. well, literally.
P.S. So I realize that I've grown fond of starting my sentences with the word 'so'. Well, just adds a tinge of 'resolution' and 'matter-of-fact' I guess.

Dreaming...
Dreaming of my dream house, with red bricks on a street
A rocking chair in the house, unvarnished and worn with scars
A pretty tea-set to share with my friends
A gramophone player and a collection of black vinyl records
Make sure that Erik Satie's 'Gymnopedie' is playing
As a golden retreiver lazes by the fire

Japan Fever...
So I've been having the Japan fever... ever since I came back in Jan. Hhehe... Basically, I'll have occasional Japanese food cravings for up to thrice per week. HAha.. doesn really help in management of my finances.
The whole world's (well, a literal term) is going to Japan! I'm basically waiting for next year (basically 12 months later) when I can go! Well, might as well make use of the free tix yeah. The home-stay programs on WWOOF look really good. HAha.. cheap way to stay in Japan for a longer period of time, yet not spend money. You get to see their way of life too! Well, besides the fact that you basically become a 'high-class' maid. I really dun mind...
In the meantime, came across a rather intriguing blog... dun tell me that i sound very free.
