回想起2008的一些快乐回忆，想念~
人生中有许多许多的变化。去年的一切已经过去了，再也回不去了！
偶尔还是很想重温那舒服的感觉，但不论怎么找也找不回。
最近遇到了很多难题，突然间一切变得很乱，很复杂。
好烦，明明就没有那美国时间去为这些事情烦恼嘛~
唉...

Re-defining
there were once I thought I will forget how to wear a smile on my face because certain changes took place in my life. time went pass and I ended up still smiling quite happily. what I thought was going to become did not turn out to be the case. however once again I am at a point of time where I try hard to re-define my life, pondering upon some situations where decision has to be made and actions to be taken.
situations keep popping by my life, thinking that messing it up would do me good. there are situations where I take control, is able to decide on what I am doing and how I will do it. for those that are purely disintegrating my life, its time where I just scrap these out from the way and make sure they stop eating up those unnecessary focuses.
I use to say that 'I will not let you go if I had a chance to hold you tight'. what if now I am tired and do not want to hold on anymore? re-defining those components and scrap off the tiredness. make life a better one! :)

A-E-C-D
Awareness -> Exploration -> Commitment -> Dissolution
this is a common theory being practised in marketing, at least according to my lecturer today. he used the example of boy-girl relationship to illustrate how businesses establish relationship with their customer. a simple 4-stage theory that involves different levels of intensity at different stages.
starting from creating awareness, girls tend to doll themselves and make sure they are at their best image in front of guys(in general). when a guy is 'targeted', the girl then tries to attract the appropriate attention. exploration is a process of understanding and getting to know each other better. this is usually a period of time where friendship starts to build and information start being passed on. thru this sharing of information it is then up to each person to judge if the relationship should be carried through to the next stage.
commitment starts when both parties decide to give one another an opportunity. the level of intensity within the relationship peaks at this stage, signifying the increased interaction of both parties at this stage. commitment is a big word indeed and it requires a huge amount of thinking before actually proceeding on. for the positive cases the relationship is always remained in this stage, never to the dissolution stage where people just walks off leaving their position in the relationship.
***
some people uses a bottle of fresh milk to describe boy-girl relationship. when freshly placed in the refrigerator, it is always captivating and holds its own charm. when opened to consume, the goodness and greatness is tasted while the beneficial elements get absorb into the body system. some bottles of milk are left unopened on the shelves till pass the expiration date and turned sour. well, these bottles were given an opportunity before, just that it did not serve its purpose properly.
from my point of view, I think that relationships are meant to be treasured. no matter the business relationship, friendship, boy-girl relationship, family relationship or just mere acquaintance is a blessing to me in life. of course, talking about maintaining the relationship will refer to the form of trust. after establishing a relationship to the commitment stage, it is very much of our own decision whether to label it 'happily ever after' or 'ok, thanks, bye'.
creating and maintaining relationships with any other person.
it takes time, dedication and the HEART. <3

Change
last semester I took a unit that's called organisational change and development. albeit not scoring HD for that unit, I learned about change from the organisational point of view. and yes, with change comes development, an organisation constantly undergoes dynamic changes in its external environment which causes development within the internal environment. another chicken and egg situation eh~
certain major changes just took place in my life. like the way how I face failures - revisited. I know my mistake and I admit to statements pointing out that 'I brought this upon myself'. people has been showing their concern, trying to point out what they see from their point of view and hoping that I can avoid commiting the same mistake again. thank you for your kind attention on the trying-to-be-transparent me. good advices hardly please the hearing, that's quoting the chinese saying, but I will exercise my EQ so as to try entering those advices into my operating system.
this coming semester is not going to be my last, sad to say, but is definately going to be a better one. I am going to finish my management major with international management and project management for SMEs. it is back to those assignments at week 5 and 10 days, back to those sitting alone during lecture days, returning to the 40% weightage of final exam marks. furthermore it is back to homeland where department of management functions rather differently (try reading between the lines :P).
tml is going to be my first lecture for the semester! look forward to an interesting e-business lecture and I hope I will not have to look for another elective by the end of this week. :P

New Semester
today marks the start of Semester 2, 2009.
a lot of things happened during the past few weeks. shall list them down one by one...
first and foremost, I had a surgery which cured the sweaty palm problem that I had been facing for years. then I went back home and kept my mummy accompanied. went over to singapore and met up with yingxu, zhoujing and audrey. went to sing k with a lot of college friends (kwee, ruijing, zhixian, boonlong, aaron, yiki). came back to kl one week prior to commencement of lesson, to help out in the orientation for july intakes. ipoh trip to visit my aunties and most importantly my great-grandma. meeting up with friends back from melbourne.
of all things that happened, my mood was badly affected by results. I would say it was worse than anything expected. now that I have fell quite hard, I will have to get up in time and also learn from my mistakes. worry nots, I will be strong and will not let such mistakes repeat itself. most importantly, I believe this mistake will only make me a better person!
hope this post sums up the updates throughout the missing period. photos to be up soon.
happy school reopen anyway! :)
