Failures? Huh?

Many people are afraid of failures
Often, that's the reason to draw back and not venture into new territories
In fact, it is also one of the most common reasons for people to accept mediocrity

Being afraid of failures means that you're afraid of what others would think of you
If you fail, would you be ridiculed? Ignored? Looked down upon?
Those questions would constantly be playing through in your mind whenever decisions are to be made

Also, what about having to answer to yourself?
What happens to your self-esteem when you fail?
Will you lose confidence in yourself and find it hard to get up once again?
Oh, all the trouble that you would have to go through just to gain 'a valuable experience'

Hence, the safe route is always better than taking the risk
This way, your flaws would not be discovered and you're at a position where your positive side shows
You're at your comfort zone where things are under your control
No worries about things not turning out well as it's just the same routine that you're so used to

Hmm, new and heavier responsibilities?
Just say no, and no one, including yourself would ever find out if you would be able to make it till the end
Just be where things are going smoothly and where you're not in-charge, so that the responsibility is always, not yours

Accept mediocrity and
life.
would.
just.
be.
ordinary.




Oh, dear.

Resolutions for Year 2009



1. Stop complaining; Start living
2. Stop procrastinating; Start working
3. Stop worrying; Start praying
4. Stop wondering; Start moving

5. Take resolutions seriously

Many had asked me about my work and what I do

To some, they had an earful of the not-so-good side of things
To others, I just smiled and gave the usual OK cause I was too tired of repeating myself
Looking back, there really isn't much to say about my work and let's just put it that I had expectations and it has led to much disappointments
I was really stressed cause I had nothing to do
It came to a point of extreme demotivation that I literally felt useless and just plain stupid

In the end, I just gave up and succumbed into the flow of things
I accepted how things were and that was when I began to realize
Perhaps I did not receive the knowledge that I had expected but it doesn't mean that I had to put my time there to waste
Besides my job, everything else around could be a learning experience
The most influential was the people there...their working attitude, commitment and passion for their job was admirable
Also, my perception and outlook towards things in life have somehow changed too
And I got to meet different people and do some really cool stuff


Staying in Sepang and being away from my daily routines and everything that I was familiar with felt weird at first
But as I got used to things, I really had fun there...sort of like a long vacation
The people were great, there were less worries and life was simple
Despite all that I had probably complained and grumbled to people around, I know that I will surely miss my time there
(Note to self: Stop complaining!)



It's been nearly a month that I've started my internship
I'm with an outdoor team building company called Great Adventure Consultant (GAC)

Work can be a little mundane at times but whenever there's an event, it's definitely fun, fun, fun!
There's just so much to learn, so many people to meet and plenty of experiences to gain
Work has also given me the opportunity to do many of the things that I've always wanted to but just never had the chance before

I'm currently based in one of their branches in Sepang GoldCoast
Check out the view from my workplace...

Beautiful isn't it?=)

Sudah luntur warna:(

It is DONE!

FINALLY...Woo hoo!!~

As part of our assignment, we were to do a short video portraying the symptoms of a particular disorder and my group's topic was Schizotypal Personality Disorder
Don't ask me what does video production gotta do with psychology...perhaps my lecturer thought that this would be an 'interesting' and 'creative' way of learning for us *shrugs*
Oh well, it was hard work and it did take up a lot of our time but I don't really mind since I enjoy doing such things...editing can be pretty addictive=)
And the satisfaction of seeing the final product beats all the sleepless nights and long hours of filming and sitting in front of the computer

I learned a lot too from this experience as we were randomly assigned into groups for this project
There goes our usual cliques and gang of friends whom we know so well in terms of how to accomodate to each other's working style and personality types
And working with those whom I'm not familiar with was indeed challenging but yet at the same time interesting as I get to see a different side of them
Hmm...I guess that's how the real world would be ey=)

Anyway, as a whole, I think we did a great job in this!!=P *pats on the back for everyone involved*
A BIG THANK YOU to those who had helped us out in this...truly appreciate it
We never could have done it without YOU, YOU & every one of YOU! (I know it sounds like an awards speech but I sincerely mean it k)

Well people, go watch the video youtube and don't forget to finish all three parts of it yea
Oh and please feel free to leave your comments and feedbacks:))
Enjoy~

Seeing the both of them putting in so much effort in their campaign, going through the much controversial forum and sitting at the edge of their seats as election days approaches made the rest of us eager too

And the results were finally released...
