Photocopy

setting: career fair in campus
background: filled in questionnaire, in return suppose to get goodies bag

---E surveyed about grades of specific units---

E: What if your boss asks you to photocopy a stack of thing and send it somewhere?
E: How do you make that task interesting? Photocopying is boring one wo~
A: You can ask the office boy to do it what...
E: What if the office boy don't know how to use the photocopier?
A: Sack the office boy lo~ You don't hire fresh graduates to do photocopy stuff.

---conversation continues, E turns to B---

E: What about you? How to make that task more interesting?
B: If the task is given by the boss, then surely it has a meaning to it.
B: Try to find out how this simple task link to the company...
E: But its just photocopy and send anyway~
B: Then you can try to follow up by getting feedback from the recipient right?!

(A tries to end the conversation, B wants to walk away)

***
whatever it is, E annoyed me a lot. apart from telling me that I should go for a management associate program (which I already know), I did not know exactly what this firm is doing. been to so many booths at career fairs, this is by far the most irrelevant and a total waste of time. I mean like E did not offer me a job after 'grilling' me with such formal-job-interview-questions. furthermore my friend and I merely wanted to know what that firm was about since its the first time we are seeing the name/brand. and most importantly, she twisted most of our questions into questions for us and left other questions unanswered. so totally no point!!!

by the way, goodies bag turned out to be a pen and a stack of PHOTOCOPIED lengthy articles about the company.

Flight 9

learned about the incident from 'air crash investigation'. not a pleasant flight experience, but fortunately it did not turn into a disaster. nowadays the aviation industry was badly affected by the above volcanic activity in Iceland. not only in Europe, other parts of the world is facing the effect too. :(

nowadays there are a lot of natural disaster happening here and there, everywhere. its a challenge, to all of us, to think beyond ourselves.

Biological clock

I believe in a set routine for everyone everyday.

in kindergarten people tell you that 'early sleep early wake up got worm to eat' (早睡早起身体好). so people generally sleep at night and wake up in the morning to start the day. at university level, I start to sleep real late at night and wake up a bit late in the morning. but I seriously think I still have a biological clock within me that is more or less working quite normally.

my brother stays with me, in the same unit of the same building. however the last time I spoke to him face-to-face was 3 days ago. reason being when I go out (about 12noon) he is still soundly sleeping on his bed and when I come home (in the evening) he is out somewhere. then when I go to sleep he is not even home and the next morning I will wake up seeing him sleeping in his room.

it just feels a little weird that I am now trying to convince myself that I am living with a living person, to believe that he is an actual person and not an illusion. :S

Choices

when you give up something to get something else, it is termed 'opportunity cost' in economics that you are calculating. when you choose a path over another, it is termed 'crossroads in life'. when you are given alternatives to choose from, generally they are termed 'choices'.

so how you choose? rationally or irrationally?
or at many times, is the decision power really in your hands?

'Fringe' science

hooked on this series.

Memory

Fishes have a short memory span of 3 seconds.
so they are very happy when staying in the usual rectangular tank.
since every 3 seconds they think that they have arrived in a new place.

Interesting eh? :)

有一个人...

有一个人, 你一上线就会去看他在不在
不在就一阵失落 ; 在 又不敢打扰
有一个人, 他的状态签名只要一换
你立刻胡思乱想 揣测不安
有一个人, 你总是忍不住去看他的空间
即使他什么新鲜事都没有
有一个人, 你会看他的最近来访和留言
然后又胡思乱想 揣测不安

有一个人, 你一直在等他
他却忘记了你
有一个人, 你真的好恨他
可是仔细一想 你恨他什么
恨他放弃你么?
那不如恨自己~

有一个人, 你以为他是你的永远
但是他却告诉你 你只是他的过客
有一个人, 你真的可以对他无条件付出
他却不稀罕; 对他来说, 你只是负担~
有一个人, 你那么那么舍不得
他却那么随意、洒脱、不在乎

有一个人， 教会你怎么去爱了
但是 他却不爱你了
有一个人， 你总说要放下他
却总是忍不住又拿回来回味
有一个人， 你真的好想他快乐
所以你宁愿自己不快乐
有一个人， 离开他的时候你笑了
但是一转身，早已泪流满面

有一个人， 你好想大声告诉他：‘我真的好后悔爱上你了！’
因为…你发现…你真的、是真的爱他
但是他不爱你了，这就是事实
那个骄傲的你去哪里了？

删掉了MSN 一个人 在电脑前流泪
删掉了电话号码 一个人 在窗前神伤
大哭一场
允许自己再大哭一场
以后 再也不会期待
不会看他在不在线了
不会看他的空间了
不会期待他的信息和电话了
不会期待他会关心你

有那么一个人，真的让你受伤了
值不值得 都不要紧

重要的是 记得曾经有那么一个人

现在我把爱情还给你， 那你把我的骄傲还给我 好不好?
爱情是很容易考验的。如果对方不以同样的爱情来回报你，那就是暗地里在轻蔑你。
在爱情里，最在乎的一方，最后往往是输得最惨的。
假若爱一个人没有回应，与其乞讨爱情，不如骄傲地走开……
这样，至少，你还能赢得最后的尊重。

岁月神偷 Echoes of the Rainbow

很简单的电影，非常有意思的名字。
看完电影，最记得吴君如的一句话： 『做人，总要信。』

Someone

you still hate because you still care.
you still care because you loved.
you loved because you thought it was worth it.
you thought this one might be the someone.

the someone that accidentally made a mark in your memories. someone that makes you happy and sad both intentionally and unintentionally. someone that appears in your mind 80% of the time. someone that made you believe in impossibilities. someone that changed how you behave to an extent you never could have imagined.

sometimes somebody somewhere should somehow know about something.
