What is not good in 'love'?

I was listening to the radio on my way to buy some grocery, after the roadshow today. I did not actually listen to the whole conversation started by the DJ, however, his question posted above as my title grabbed my attention. So, "What is not good in love", I asked myself...

Perhaps, in the initial stages of love, everything seems alright, and that you can make do and live with anything that comes your away. As the feeling starts to 'normalise', you start thinking, "Why did I put up with these behavious?".

I guess, for me, things that are not good while you are in love are (thinking out loud):

• The craving for 'constant' or almost need for attention all the time. The need to be the centre of someone's universe, and to feel as if you are important. This often gives the 'person' wrong impressions that THEY are IMPORTANT, whereas they are as important to others as they treat others. As the saying goes, what goes round, comes round - the promise of life!

• Blindness towards your partners imperfections. Though this may be cute and endearing at the beginning, but its always the little things that really bugs you. However, when you voice out your concerns regarding little annoying habits earlier on the realtionship, 'love' gets in the way and tells you, 'its ok. let him be!"

• Their opinions. I guess, some do sort out the rotten apples before they commit to a relationship. However, some apples do not appear rotten till you get to the inner most core. And sometimes, when that happens, you wonder, "What will happen to me now? Swallow or spit?" (NO PUNS INTENDED!)

• Financial stability. When you are in love, and have no one to support but yourself, you are content with less. However, you tend to complain and see inadequacies with personal or joint funds with the bun in the oven.

• Getting to know the family. It is really awkward for me to know someone, more so getting to know your prospective 'family members' when it is essential to be on good terms with everyone. It is quite stressful - i imagine! This can sometimes lead to 'fake-ness' that may disappoint not just yourself but other parties as well.
  

Different people really do react differently to others and the qualities they are looking for in potential 'love' partners varies, making us different. What is NOT GOOD for me, perhaps may be tolerable to others, or perhaps "WHAT IS SHE TALKING ABOUT?" to another. Its all about perception and personal preference. After all, what makes love good is essentially communication between partners....

Important trait(s)

My youngest sister gave me a call as I was having my early dinner at a diner, and I was too lazy to cook reason being having no supply of what ever (fresh food - which reminds me, I need to clean the fridge) in my kitchen at my uncle's. As we were chatting about, one topic jumped at me as it was different and interesting.

She asked if i could name one important trait that her 'future' or 'possible' boyfriend should have. I told her to give me time while we continue to chat. I finally resolved to 'him' having good sense of humour. Apparently, others (immediate family members) think the same. What can i say, brilliant minds think the same :)

As this topic came up, I remembered my earlier entry a couple months ago, where I spoke of what I wanted in my 'man', dedicated to meddling family members. Its safe enough to say, I stick by what I thought I wanted and needed. Though the list may sound like impossible, and others may read in aghast, but.... *wink* someone out there fits :)

Youth and me

Recently, I participated in the first Brunei's Youth Congress. I feel it went rather well (the discussion bit), though it ended with a bit in an anti-climax feeling for me. There were many there, though the quality of participation is something else entirely! But, I have to give credit when its due, and for the first time, it is quite okay. Perhaps relevant agencies will learn from their first experience to make future congress better and more interactive and relevant with good if not better facilitators.

I was lucky, in a way that i was selected to speak on a topic where i had some ideas. others were not so lucky where they had to discuss a topic new and foreign to them, such as youth and employment. Only if you are of a certain age and maturity would you tend to think in that direction. Otherwise, its something younger youths dismiss and leave for relevant and older authorities to plan, and resolve!

Being around other youths and thinking of one particular topic for a few days is NOT ENOUGH to come to a conclusion of what is needed by the youths and the country. In fact, I believe the few days we had to discuss the topics were really limited and just the tip of an iceberg of what we can really think and achieve from... there are so many things to learn... so many things to absorb and many other things to learn to comprehend.

I throughly enjoyed my day in the limelight and exercise in public speaking. It was fun and exhilarating. I recieved many nice compliments and i will treasure them always :)

Perhaps, working in an environment where I can use that talent would be great. Do you see me as a public speaker? motivator? or teaching public speaking?

On second thoughts, I should really LEARN how to do it better before TEACHING others of ONLY what i think is best! :P heheheheh... even if experience is a poweful tool, knowledge is very useful ;)

on the fence...

I got a text message from a friend this morning to read one of the local news paper, page four. I was scanning the page when i saw a tiny portion that was suppose to attract my attention. I seldom read the local newspaper, for so many obvious reasons, but when one asks me to read, i do, or when the paper is available in the clinic for free, i read in between patients.

Anyways, whom ever wrote that comment, is probably one of us, and is greatly unhappy as i can feel the unhappiness and is precise about his/her opinion on the matter. He/She also sounded very knowledgeable.

I am actually on the fence on the issue. What issue some of you may ask... Well, the comment was about medical and allied health professionals becoming administrators without proper training, and losing expertise and hence reducing good and efficient quality service to the people.

I agree that some professionals, though, they took a different field, can excel in another. Though, not everyone can do it. Obvious examples are clearly available within my ministry, but i shan't point fingerssss.

Another ministry that takes similar stand is the Ministry of Education, where they pick and pull the best of their teachers into administration to help run the ministry smoothly. After all, who knows the field better than the professionals living and breathing it???

Sometimes, i think, by doing and staying in one particular job can be a bit boring and perhaps stagnant and less challenging for the brain. not that i am saying that there is not much challenge in medicine, but with limited knowledge, you can only use and apply so much, and in the end, you become boring, things become routine and the brain dies secondary to lack of challenges and stimulation!

Plus, I do not see what is wrong with a medical or health professional to become an administration. A few of us can probably do a better job than the existing team, as we understand the jargon better, and would not be 'stupidify' or politely known as 'charmed' by others into believing 'medical miracles'.

I would, however, recommend rotation of posts so one whom had achieved 'greatness' do not forget it is short lived, and will do their best within their position for that period of time, as they would come back down and join the others. What is sad with most of us is that, we tend to lose ourselves, and think we are above it all. And you forget how it was once difficult for you, too, and that someone helped you... and you needed support, too.

My attitude to this subject is simple. Regardless of the person's background, if he/she is capable to show others that they can lead, they can help improve the situation, they can inject positivism and increase morale amongst the grass root level.... I say....'What are you waiting for?"

I also understand by accepting a post within the administration means less 'professionals' looking after the people of Brunei, but WHEN DO WE GET OUR CHANCE TO BE LOOKED AFTER???

Working morale is sooooo low. There is no longer positivism in work. People lost their passion for things they once loved.

To give the best you can, is to receive the best you can. Its a relationship after all, and relationships are two way streets.

hanging out

yesterday, my friends and I decided to go out for a meal and then hang out. There were no clear plans but eating and bringing out laptop along were pre-requisite.

We wanted to eat at this italian place that offers 'eat-all-you-can' meal, however, the establishment was closed. We were picking our brains of places to eat next, when I decided i wanted Italian and head off to the other slightly pricier italian place. I had my usual - though i was supposed to share... I kind of eat the whole pasta all by my self ;) Sorry Girls!!! Its my favourite :P

We, i think, ate a bit too much, as someone felt bloated. I on the other hand, felt just ok. If truth was to be told, If i did not stop myself, I could have continued eating ;)

We hopped off to the nearest cafe where the internet connection was complimentary and decided to sit for a bit, discuss and look at pictures. Everyone had their own set of pictures to show off ;) it was nice...

The internet connection was, however, annoying. I could not tell why the connection was terrible, but then, it started to pour, lightning and thunder was present... then i said to myself "no wonder", and squeezed myself to the corner.... trying to move away from it all, trying to protect myself...

I remember when i was much younger, my parents fed me the notion that every time there is thunder, it means god is displeased with some kids... and until today, every time i hear thunder, i feel like i have done something bad... and i just want to wrap myself up in bed, surrounded with pillows and duvet for protection and comfort. i often chant prayers while driving...

My uncle in Kuala Belait often laugh at me, as i always excuse myself, even in the middle of watching a tv program if there is thunder to the bedroom.

On a lighter note, as the girls and I were walking towards the cafe in Gadong, we saw this father on a comfortable sofa with his baby in his arms on hi s lap. From afar, it looked as if the father was cooing the baby to sleep. Upon nearer and further investigation, i noted that the dad was sleeping as well.... with his head down, mere few inches from the baby.

We walked past the baby and father for the second time, when i said to my friends to watch if the father is drooling on the boy. They burst into laughters, and said i had an evil mind... I don't. but, it would be hilarious to actually see the father, being tired as well, drooling on his sleeping child ;) :P

Happy...

We all know what we are deep inside... whether we are nice or nasty. But often, others judge us from what they see we do, or say. Yesterday, I was informed that I had new patients to be seen, and as I had freed the rest of the afternoon (under false impression that i would be on a course the whole day), I rushed to the crime scene to see the patients.

I had a pair of old lady and gentleman, obviously in different wards. I went to see the old lady first. She was surrounded by her grand-daughters. I liked her... I made her smile, and tried to get her to communicate and respond to her grand children's delight. It was easy as she was responsive. It would have been harder if the old lady was not responsive, and did not find me 'cute' to respond to...

The gentleman was hard of hearing... and his daughter was unsure which of his ear was the better ear, hence, I did a mini test to determine the good hearing ear. But, he did not respond either way. I then think of tricking him to respond, by saying something silly. Fortunately, he could not resist, and responded to everyone's amazement.

The old lady and gentleman made me happy yesterday. Though I was really tired.. and came home slightly late... and was yawning all the way home... i felt like... yesterday, i achieved and touched lives :)

Just a few hours ago, i went shopping. I was in the line waiting my turn to pay my purchases, when the guy in front of me pulled his pants up. Two things came to mind... One is, OH GOD! That is how i look like when I pull my own pants. Second was, I noticed the man had bad varicous veins.... It looked painful, and possibly need surgery. Moral of the story: Do not wear shorts if you do not want others to look at your imperfections.

To my friends who are....

To My Friends Who Are...........SINGLE
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it will come to you when you least expect it. Love can make you happy but often it hurts, but love's only special when you give it to someone who is really worth it. So take your time and choose the best.

To My Friends Who Are............NOT SO SINGLE
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's 'perfect person.' It's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.

To My Friends Who Are............PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE
Never say 'I love you' if you don't care. Never talk about feelings if they aren't there. Never touch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look in the eye when all you do is lie. The cruelest thing a guy can do to a girl is to let her fall in love when he doesn't intend to catch her fall and it works both ways...

To My Friends Who Are............MARRIED
Love is not about 'it's your fault', but 'I'm sorry.' Not 'where are you', but 'I'm right here.' Not 'how could you', but 'I understand.' Not 'wish you were', but 'I'm thankful you are.'

To My Friends Who Are............ENGAGED
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how good you are for each other.

To My Friends Who Are............HEARTBROKEN
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.

To My Friends Who Are............NAIVE
How to be in love: Fall but don't stumble, be consistent but not too persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not to demand, and get hurt but never keep the pain.

To My Friends Who Are............POSSESSIVE
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy with someone else but it's more painful to know that the one you love is unhappy with you.

To My Friends Who Are............AFRAID TO CONFESS
Love hurts when you break up with someone. It hurts even more when someone breaks up with you. But love hurts the most when the person you love has no idea how you feel.

To My Friends Who Are............STILL HOLDING ON
A sad thing about life is when you meet someone and fall in love, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and that you have wasted years on someone who wasn't worth it. If he isn't worth it now he's not going to be worth it a year or 10 years from now. Let go.....

TO ALL MY FRIENDS.......
My wish for you is a man/women whose love is honest, strong, mature, never-changing, uplifting, protective, encouraging, rewarding and unselfish.

Nine words that women use

The real definition of words women use:

1.) Fine:
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2.) Five Minutes:
If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour.
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the footy before helping around the house.

3.) Nothing:
This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end with fire.

4.) Go Ahead:
This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

5.) Loud Sigh:
This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6.) That's Okay:
This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7.) Thanks:
A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome.

8.) Whatever:
Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!

9.) Don't worry about it, I got it:
Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's wrong?" For the woman's response refer to #3.

car trouble again

What is it about me and cars?? I seem to encounter more car problems than my fair share. Just this morning, as i was going to work, dad informed me that i could not use the car... Something is leaking... i think he said casket... we tried to get the car towed.. but all towing trucks were busy!!!

I had to cancel clinic and informed everyone... and thank GOD!, the car was fixed, or i would have to cancel tomorrow's clinic in KB.

I am not happy with one of the administrators in one of the hospital i am working in. People should really cut other people some slack... and... we should work together to make each other's life easy, instead of hard...

I guess, some people just enjoy making other people sweat... and feel miserable... I shall, however, will not let it bother me...

walking down memory lane...

Happy National Day everyone. We are officially 24 years independent on our own... To reflect, we have to be fair and say much had changed, and is constantly changing.. However, the speed of change is something else to be spoken of!

Anyways, tomorrow would be the official 'house warming' ceremony with few invited guests. Mostly family members and new members from the surrounding neigbour and community. I am not sure how that one is working out yet!

And so, I had made it an agenda to clean up my room, a bit, as I know there would be guests that would be interested to go around the house and have a peep! ;) I have to say, my room look gorgeous :) Plus with the bedding I had only worn twice before... Its something I put on for special occasions :P and this is pertinently a special occasion!

Cleaning the room means looking around the room for stuff that needed clearing.. I was also updating pictures around the room :) I found a nice picture of me and kak lin when we were much younger, on a road trip to Kuching :) She probably would like that.. I shall add that detail.

While looking and sieving through materials of pictures and letters of long time ago, while i was still a student in the UK, I bumped into many things. Amongst it were letters, cards and postcards people wrote to me. It all look so cute now. How people think different things are important... and they update you on what is and what is not, depending what they feel is best for you to know ;)

I also stumbled upon a few christmas cards from a few friends in the course... and i think i will write them as i have their address. I hope that it is their permanent address... and i hope they get the letter i am going to write and perhaps post it soon. I procastinate sometimes... and things don't really get done!

Anyways...

• Happy 24th national day people!!

• I have a nice room ;)

• I am going to write at least 3 letters to friends around the globe ;)

lunch 'date'

I had a meeting in the headquarters today, and went through a bunch of boring work that needed checking and updating! Needless to say, i was bored to death, and was yawning away... The fact that i did not sleep a wink did not helped!!! Others were equally bored, however, plodded on :)

I made plans with Burt for lunch. We had been trying to have lunch for a while now, but have not managed it. I was lucky he was free, however, we did run some errands afterwards. I did nothing and stayed in the car though :) so not much trouble for me...

Burt is on a diet, and he looks great. He thinks he needs to tone up his muscles... and so, i bet he would be doing just that soon... and will achieve the look he wants. I have never been body conscious, but being healthy should be a good reason to start losing the excess weight!

So, after lunch, Burt drove around to do his errands... and me... tired yet full, was in a reclined position in his passenger seat. Next thing you know, i woke up and was already in the hospital's car park and its quarter to 2 pm!!!

I DOZZED OFF in the car, while Burt ran his errands. I met Burt on MSN and enquired if i had SNORED! Luckily i did not... I would have been mortified otherwise :P

TIPS:

• Do not have a heavy lunch.

• Do try to sleep the night before a lunch date, regardless it being with your friend!!

• Sit up straight in the car and strike a conversation to refrain you from the temptation to close your eyes!

Its been raining a lot lately. Roads are wet. People looked a bit miserable on the roads as well as they had to go slow. More and frequent bad accidents are happening along the highway.. and the police are on alert!

It does not help that the radio is BORING! and the music played are 'sleepy' notes. Not to mention the news imparted are sooo boring as well.... one can't help but fall asleep while driving, especially when one has not been sleeping too well!!!

I recently downloaded SKYPE... and it has been interesting. I have met a lot of weird people.. and i mean that... People randomly wanting to call you.... People randomly wanting to have a chat... and i figured out how to call people as well ;) I am liking it :P

work update

I had almost given up on work... not knowing if plans would proceed.. It does not really matter much to me, if it had not proceed, I probably would have liked it better, but, we all evolve, as so do work.

We had a meeting this afternoon, and it was good. Things were moving forward as planned. And it appears that I may be moving to the new premise soon. Probably not in March as anticipated, but sometime this year.

I had also voiced out issues regarding manpower, as well as resources, budget and other safety issues. It seems that these were listened to with intent, and I hope, I will not be facing much problems.

Now, we wait and see...

On a personal note, I am feeling confused. Confused enough to worry, confused enough that tears dropped, confused enough to lose sleep over it... I am working on not being confused. If you are wondering what I am confused about, well... its a 'me' issue!

It has been a while...

It has been a while... the blog has been quiet. life, however, kept on going on... days changing to weeks, regardless... and here we are now.

Thank you for the encouragement to write... Under normal circumstances, I would have missed writing... but, the break was good. for me.

I have been thinking hard, what should i write.... so, here is a list:

• My car. My car is 7 years old... not very old... but it has been having problems with its gearbox for a couple of years now. and finally, it has decided to call it quits. It can be repaired, of course, however, that would need an obscene amount of money. I had been told to sell it, and of course look for another car. I am currently thinking this over. In the meantime, i am using my uncle's car. Thanks to him, i get to work.
  

• Chinese New Year. Its the year of the rat this year. and apparently, its generally good for everyone. Not that i believe in it much, but, it is quite reassuring to know that everything will be ok.

• Sister's birthday. My sister turned 29 just a couple of days ago. It was celebrated a day early at a BBQ at a cousin's.
  

• Marsya's and Alisya's birthday. The girls turned 2 and 1 respectively. They are sooooo cute. Marsya is now beginning to talk more.. and she appears to know and enjoy more.. its such a nice developmental stage :) i love this exploration of language stage ;)

• The move. As of now, there is nothing much about the move. Everything seems to be slow. People are still not aware of this and that. and budget is not approved yet and bla bla bla. I dont really care now... it happens, it happens. It doesn't... its not really my problem.

• 'Blind' date. I met this guy i texted with several times for breakfast at his request. He even paid, which was nice. But, i really did not have anything in common with the guy. He appears to be nice and all, but, the heart really did not flutter!

• Love online. Someone said to me to see if i can find love online. Maybe i did. hmmm...
  

That's it folks. Lets see if i would blog often now...

untitled

I logged in several times... and I have been to this same empty page several times... I want to write... but nothing is flowing...

Thoughts I have are negative... I could not write anything that is suitable for public consumption.

I don't want to write about mundane stuff... though i have been guilty of that on more than 1 occasion...

Hence, I am officially taking a sabatical from blogging... until i feel better...

work...

It looks like January is going to be a busy month for me. Attending meetings almost everyday of the week, next week and a couple of times per week till the end of the week. I just hope that it would be useful and beneficial to all involved!

You know how meetings are... They run all the time, people spun stories, promises are made... but not everything are done as claimed. and it would eventually turn out to be a waste of time! I had the pleasure of attending a couple of meetings in my work life that was absolutely brilliant, but meetings like that don't come along often!

On top of that, I will be moving to a new premise probably in March. Suggestions made are considered and will be instated as soon as money is available. I now wonder who will help me run a big space like that!

Looks like 2008 is going to be activity packed. Would i like it???

New year's resolution

What is one thing that people always talk about at the change of the new year? Without fail, they like to talk and ask you about it... read the title... "What's your new year's resolution?", "Did you keep your resolution last year?", "Are you changing your resolution this year?"... and more...

I heard it on the radio... I read it on blogs.. I read it in facebook and friendster.. I was also asked several times... and what is my answer? I do not believe in making new year's resolution.

I used to make one (or several, as it was), as i was growing up. I used to make up and change things until a few years ago, when i realised that its futile... Why? because

• you don't keep it.
• you struggle to keep the not important resolution.
• you wonder how you can keep it.
• you worry about what would be a good resolution this year, because you want to be original.

Instead, i make little oaths to myself. Something achievable anything through out the year. And i give myself a time frame to complete it. An example would be,... I have a temper. Its bad and short and explosive. When i was much younger, it was much much worst! I remembered in Uni, when i was really mad, i used to slammed the door. It freaked my house mates... and i realised that it was a bad thing to have an uncontrolled temper, that controlled you...

It must have been October-November 1996, i made myself a promise that i would control my temper... and i had a plan how i was gonna go about it.... and i managed it... my temper is much better, but i won't boast how great it is..

I have not made any new year's resolution for a long time. the same will happen this year. However, i had plans on how to improve myself ot my work... i'll share if its achieved...

What is going to happen...

I just had a look at this building i was supposed to relocate to.... huh! sounds like news... well,.. that is because i have been keeping mum about it until now. Its not that BAD (fingers crossed!) I was a bit apprehensive before my move to KB... and i am so now, with this move... but, if things were moving to a better direction, why not.... I'll embrace it, even if i am apprehensive about it.

Anyways, I started the new year by attending a wedding of a family member in KB. I don't even know this girl... and we are supposed to be cousins!!! I attended because ... I dunno... what possed me...

I was waiting in the heat, though the food was nice, the fact that i waited for the bride and groom, and finally seeing them and thinking to myself "Who the hell is that!" and.. "I have never seen those people in my entire life"..... so... why was i there????

That just really got me really worked up. I mean... why should i attend a 'family's' wedding when i don't even know her... Why should i attend that function, when i have never seen her at any of our functions... Come to think about it, I have never even seen HER parents visiting MY GRANDMOTHER even during raya..... and we make a habit and tradition visiting my grand's brother (the bride's grandfather) every 2nd day raya!!!

If i can list things i hate... its soooo easy! and it'll be long... its been a few days.... I am still feeling angry and upset with myself for attending that wedding! ARGH!!!!!!

Happy New Year!

Its 6 O'clock and i was woken up by my regular alarm to get up!! I had an early night last night, so it wasn't too much trouble to get out of bed.

This year (well, more so last year), unlike any other year... there was no great family do, no get together amongst friends, no crazy texting "Happy New Year". This time round, the change of year is just another day!

A few weeks back, i was listening to the radio. Though I dislike the DJs, they raised something worth sharing. They were saying that we should list down things we are grateful for, happy that it happend in 2007. As I was listening to the radio, i tried to list my own 5 things, but it was so hard.... so let me try again.

5 things that i am happy for that happened in 2007:

• I lost some weight. Now the problem, is losing more, or maintaining the loss!!!
• I managed to maintain a savings. Not much but enough to furnish my new room.
• I purchased a nice big TV for myself. My first own TV, excluding the one i share and purchased with friends in UK.
• I read books :) Though I should make more time for it.
  
• I am happy i am in KB... away from things... and able to breathe and savour things around me though its hard work and exhausting!!!

So, there we have it... that took an hour, mind you, to figure out.... To list things i am unhappy about in 2007 would have been easier...

To all, Happy New Year. Should you decide to list things you are grateful for, I wish you great ease, than the time i had to go through.

I've been tagged...

I have been silent for a while... a lot have been asking questions. I have no reason, other than i was lazy, overwhelmed at work, emotionally 'unstable' for a while.. hence, i had been de-stressing through working like a mad woman in the clinic, stitching and watching Korean DVD. A good cry, and 'prying' into someone else's life had always made me feel good and re-focus back to my own reality!!!

i have been tagged to write a lot. One is on first love by Twinkle... however, i am postponing that as long as i can.... i thought about it.... I can't yet write about it without being emotional and tears pouring down my cheek.

• I would like to congratulate young family members that had gotten their results and passed with flying colours.
• I would like to congratulate the 2 newly wed people - sarul and diana. Of whom is yet to give me a picture of their wedding for framing!!! I'm feeling their present is un-needed!!!!
