a quote frm my new book

purchased a book which was highly recommended by my leadership & management lecturer called Spiritual Intelligence - The Ultimate Intelligence.
so far the read is good. enjoying every bit of information provided.

i would like to quote a paragraph from the book which i think many of us out there probably do not know or are ignorant abt and that is....

"Ideally, our three basic intelligences work together and support one another. Our brainss are designed so that they can do this. But each of them - IQ, EQ and SQ - has its own area of strength, and they can function seperately. That is, we aren't necessarily high or low in all three simultaneously. One needn't be high in IQ or SQ to be high in EQ. One could be high in IQ but low in both EQ and SQ, and so on."

i think the last line is the most meaningful. the most important is to not lose our individual humility. dat is, always keep ourself in check and make sure we're in line with our morals and believes. never be arrogant, proud or showy or look down on others.
doesnt mean one is clever academically means he/she is high in emotional intelligence as well. God is fair. there's no such thing as the best of both worlds.

1yr on

YAAAAAHHHHOOOOOOOO!
TODAY! the 12th of July, marks my 1st Year Anniversary of graduation frm TP and driving!
woohooooo!
tmr onwards, its off with the P plate! yay!!!! hurhur..
k la quite cheap thrill. but nevertheless its a sense of achievemen! yup!



on to a bluer note... its now the 2nd week of sch/classes for me and i feel laggy... i'm lagging behind! argh.
need to catch up with my notes so far. not gonna wait last min anymore. so after i blog dis its off to shower den snuggle up with my buyer behaviour and prices & mkt notes.. hmm i'm really enjoying buyer behaviour the subject. tink its really cool altho it can be a bit mind boggling.. kinda like a domino effect. so i've to start catching up with e txt bk and definitions learnt thus far aft 4 lessons.
assignments have alr started. as usual.. grp issues have arisen. disappointing. but oh well, life was nvr meant to be fair. but i'm glad Alex din abandon me.. duno wad i'd do if he did.
when will pple grow up i wonder..
i jus cant wait to finish dis course. the pple in my sch r jus odd.
a simple example of taking the lifts, y cant pple freakin hold the door? i dun get it. every one who walks into the lift, reaches out to press which floor they wud like to exit on n den step away frm the buttons like as if touching dem is forbidden. *slaps forehead
i jus tink Asians are disgusting. unfortunately, i lie within that category. but i plan to make a difference. i know for sure i am not guilty of not holding lift doors.
also, Asians mostly DONT say "thank you". seems like everyone has a pot of gold in their mouth. u hold the lift for them, they jus take it as if they deserve being treated nice. damn it man. ass holes. so freakin selfish. these pple shud learn some manners. no wonder when Asians travel to the States or Europe, we get laughed at and become the joke of caucasians. we are so uncouth. absolutely disgusting.
talk abt being educated. utter rubbish. pple dun even noe basic manners, so wads the freakin pt of being so intelligent. dats y i always say, its ok, God is fair! those that are intelligent are usually emotionally dumb.

oh well lets hope things with Asian youths will get better soon.

bad mood

today is another mysterious day that Lydia is in a bad mood and it'll be better if NOBODY asks her abt it.
just take it as that.

just for now i wish i didnt have to be nice and give in to pple all the time.
being the epitome of pple's redicule is so frustrating. i wish they know hw it feels. perhaps they do but they jus choose not to bother. its the easiest escape anyway. i tink i will try that. jus not bother. if i'm nice to pple all the time, whos gonna be nice to me? if i care all the time, who's gonna care abt me? if i have to give my love all the time, who's gonna love me?
only God will remain true to me.
i shud really consider being joining the religious sisters and devote my life to Christ. it is then that i will find true happiness and peace. away from annoying, ill-mannered, ass holes, idoits, selfish and back-stabbing pple.
i've been finding it increasingly hard to be always be understanding and forgiving. and it has already been increasingly difficult to tahan pple who get on my nerves. in short, i'm becoming increasingly short tempered.
i'm not gonna do anything abt it for now. perhaps i shud stop controlling my emotions and jus let dem run free once in a while, then only will i be normal.

individuals have to begin to realise this:
if you tink your life sucks, pls stop being so selfish and wallow in self pity.
instead realise dat u r being so pathetic by feeling sry for urself and tell urself dat perhaps someone somewhere out there is in a much worst state then u r. so get ur act together and move on!

tommy page - a shoulder to cry on

i wonder if someone special will give me such reassurance such as the song lyrics below by Tommy Page..
perhaps its better to nvr expect.
maybe remaning hopeful is a better way to put it.
well frens, this song is to all of you.

Life is full of lots of up and downs
And the distance feels further when you're headed for the ground
And there is nothing more painful than to let you're feelings take
you down
It's so hard to know the way you feel inside
When there's many thoughts and feelings that you hide
But you might feel better if you let me walk with you
by your side

And when you need a shoulder to cry on
When you need a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
You won't be alone, cause I'll be there
I'll be your shoulder to cry on
I'll be there
I'll be a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
you won't be alone, cause I'll be there.

All of the times when everything is wrong
And you're feeling like
There's no use going on
You can't give it up
I hope you work it out and carry on

Side by side,
With you till the end
I'll always be the one to firmly hold your hand
no matter what is said or done
our love will always continue on

Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on
everyone needs a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
you won't be alone cause I'll be there
I'll be your shoulder to cry on
I'll be there
I'll be the one you rely on
when the whole world's gone
you won't be alone
cause I'll be there!

And when the whole world is gone
You'll always have my shoulder to cry on....

shopping quiz

Lydia, you're a Pro Shopper

Buyer beware. Maybe you've learned from experience or perhaps that's just the way you are, but it's clear that you're a savvy shopper who isn't afraid to shop around. Impulse purchases? Not your style.From a pair of sneakers to a flat-screen TV to a jacket, you do your research before you buy. Knowing where to go to get what you want at a good price takes work. Whether you go around to different stores, test out the merchandise, compare prices, research on the Internet, or ask other people's opinions, you do what it takes to find the best buy. And that's why you're such a pro. Congrats!

a quiz i did on shopping patterns. haha.. always nice to discover a side of myself.
