It's life's rules
It's destiny's taunt
You don't have to choose
You'll live forever
I won't
I'm getting itchy
You're nagging me
If it's that simple
why don't you give it to me?
So I'll make my own dots
That has nothing to do with you
just wait and see
I'm going to be me
But still..
however I look at it..
you're just a dot away
and smiling so deviously
I'd forget you were God
Anyway.. missing them everyday :)
Rain falls ever soft
a gentle reminder of..
is the sun hiding away
from having to see you walk away?
Grey is the wet pavement
nothing is ever so wrong
for a gentle reminder of..
the day you went away
It might be easier than I thought
to let something go
maybe I already have
a few weeks ago?
When the seat is empty
and I have survived even
how anything would not be
be a reminder of you?
Enough already!! Please no one get married these few months anymore!
I ran out of money, ran out of dresses, ran out of hairstyles!! :))
I got 2 weddings this weekend, which means my whole weekend. One is a
junior high friend, and the other is a work mate.
The first one is more like a reunion, it was so funny meeting all those
friends from way back.
Most of them look the same, but some have an amazing transformation.
I'm glad to see how some people were still as friendly and clicked as we
used to.
The second one was .. well.. like working since I met most of the people
in the office as well :)) only in a different outfit.
It was pretty good and pretty windy. I think i caught the wind.
It was also rather sad when they asked us to take a picture, since it
would probably the last picture we will have together with the Groom.
The groom is resigning soon.
Oh well, congratulations to both couples. I'm happy to be a part of your
big day.
Sometimes people die not in the midst of the crisis.
They got through the crisis.
They die after. Some time where they've thought they've faced the worst.
But actually the worst part is not the loud chaos. It's the silence after.
Like in Titanic where Jack and Rose had survived the ship. When
everything was so much calmer, he had been to tired to hold on.
Sometimes you put every strength in your body and mind to get through
something and to win or achieve something, only to find out that when
you've won it you don't have any strength left to keep holding on.
I cannot bear to see you lying there..
I cannot bear to be helpless
I want to be the one beside you when your tears starts rolling
I want to be the wind that supports you when you fly
But I am simply reminded
How I can't..
to realize I do not have many friends at all, no one for me to be able
to say, he/she is the one who is able to propose the toast for us..
who knows enough about us, to say the truth...
one who I can ask to shop around with me, laugh, coffee, and live my
last single days with me...
Hopefully by the time I get to that point, I'll have a few ;)
Do you know
how much time passes
if you disappear
and come back again?
I would say
not a thousand years
but there simply would be
no time lost
All because
that I would
simply disappear too
and reappear with you
Do you know
what would I dream of
if I didn't dream of you?
I would say
there would be no dreams
and only sleepless nights
without you in my dreams
Do you know
how the world would sound
if you go?
I have to say
the world would simply be
a mass of noise
a scream
for you
Here's a pic of Scotty!! My all new latest creation!! Made just for hmm hmm... with the right formula!!In the end.. I was saved.. time again.. by your smile.. and your chids...
In the end.. I was saved.. by the outsiders..
by the unknown
If I send email would I be reprimanded
If I ignore.. would I be scolded
If I follow.. would this be worth it?
Birthday Resolution to be
1. Need to finish Scotty my dog so I'll be happier
2. People don't tell the truth so stop believing
3. Give up about the company
4. Get over bitchy and backstabbers
5. Plan next craft project, something to keep me sane !
There are a bunch of problems in the office.. and not all of them are
the management's fault.. though some are!
I'm trying to juggle my way through the information passed through me,
making sure I pass the right ball to the right person, making sure I
threw the ball hard enough for him/her to catch and easy enough. We
desperately need some kind of management information flow here where
people know where to go to with what information. Right now everyone
says different things about one single issue which shows how much
information is lost on the way between one person to another.
Today I found out that I missed an important information, because my
'colleague' didn't think it was relevant to me and was relevant that if
I know that the plans would change or something.
We need more trust here!!!
Then I found uot that the production team has also missed telling the
marketing people some real critical infos... which I accidentally found
and passed through instead. The info has no important significance to me
myself but I found myself getting dissapointed of how much people missed
telling each other. Hopefully these kind of 'accidents' won't happen to
me. I have notified the proper / related people about these info flow
problem and hopefully things will get better.
Things will get better if we try to make them better, ain't it so?
Lol, I got a free pattern on one of the blogs on the internet and I
sewed up a small lamb doll.
Overall... well it's juat OKAY. The ears were too large, and I didn't
sew up the under gusset properly. Plus, I didn't fill up the lamb with
enough fillings.
:( It certainly isn't perfect despite everybody's comment that it looks
nice.
Frankly I want to make it better! Shall I cut it up? I'll post some
pictures later on.
The lamb is now at my bfs house, standing on a glass shelf in his and
his sister's room.
I hope next time I'll do better..
Relationships are like the pictures of chromosomes in those biology books..
Long, with strange holes that you don't recognise, and bumps or crosses
each other at some point.
Some will never cross again, some will be paired through the whole length.
No idea where the strand will go, and have no idea that however I try to
cross or pair it with another if it will ever work.
But I need to survive in the meantime, and see where it leads, don't I?
We all need to survive however our strand is filled with those holes and
never cross with any other's.
There are going to be many goodbyes soon, and it is just starting.
It's funny how nothing happens for a long time.. status quo.. and then
suddenly everything changes in an instant that you never expect it would.
Like journey(ing) through this nagai.. time tunnel and suddenly when you
got out of it everything pulls you and sucks you out in a black hole.
I just hope I'll see you at the end of the tunnel.
He he..
On my first day in Soerabaja there's a few missed calls with no numbers.
At the afternoon I managed to pick up the call and it was from a woman:
Me: Hello?
Her: Hello?
Me: Yes?
Her: Who's this?
Me: Huh?
Her: Is this Dewi?
Me: Yes. Who's This?!!?!
Her: No. Nothing important.
Click
She put down the receiver..
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Who's that womannnnnnnnnnnn..
If she's a friend checking out or forgetting my number how come she
didn't say something like "oh.. it's me. Just checking out that this is
still ur number"
She said "No Nothing Important" in a chotto unfriendly way.
...
Might she be a ghost?
Or a jealous woman?
Or a predator?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaa....
----- Click ----
I have found a need to know my relatives better :( I've been half-asleep
living through these world.
I love the patience of my grandma..
How she is often silent, unobstrusive and doesn't ask too much questions..
She is highly attentive though, though I cannot say I'm very close to
her since I don't get to meet her that often.
I should say however, that I'd love to grow old like her
*personality-wise* if I ever get old.
:D
Back from Surabaya.
Had a wonderful holiday, and got tired of Indonesian food. Need
Japanese/Western and more Chinese food!!!
My sis going off on an airplane to NZ first, hope she has a safe journey
all the way and enjoyed the trips.
I hope she'll enjoy her new job as well and will tell me more about it
later.
*Sending hugs over the air*
In our lives we make choices. Some choices are hard, some are easier to
make like what's for dinner today.What if, one day, you have to make a decision that's either way is bad. Like the silly test about who to save when you can only choose one person to save. Like what if you have to choose between bad and the worse. Can one be fair in one's choices?
Am I ready to be a bad person when the time comes? Are you?
Knowing that either way around you're going to carry a large hole in your heart, a burden in your deep soul, a tear that you might never allow to fall, can you make the decision?
And if that's not enough, you know people are going to hate you for the decisions you make, and you yourself will be haunted and will sometimes regret it. The path you took. No one might ever understand why you said what you said, did what you did. And sometimes you would have no chance
or no strength to tell anyone. Can you make the decision?
But hey someone have to do the dirty job, someone has to be blamed.
People need to blame to rectify themselves, to reassure that however hard the decision is, it's still wrong to some people. We can't always be right. Or can we?
I always thought it's great to be a good person, but to be a 'bad' person, at least from everyone else's view, well sometimes it took more sacrifice, more courage, and more heart.
...
I want to meet new people, who so wonderfully changed me and how I live
my life in their little ways..
I have loved the experience last week.. of me meeting people in Malaysia
all by myself.. then meeting a beuatiful Korean woman.
I've learnt so much from how they talk, they present themselves and say
what they want to say.
It has particularly pushed me to be a better person.. a better person at
communicating I hope.
I used to be very passive. When there're new people around I would hold
myself back until that person is introduced by someone else or introduce
themselves.
Now I realized that I need to take a more active role, be more cheerful
towards new people and initiate myself to introduce myself.. and it has
worked I think in a much better way.
I just want to improve who I am, whom I work with, and how I work..
Thank you for those of you whom I have met.. because you have touched
and taught me things that you never realized teaching.
Relating on what happened on my trip besides the Aircraft and the hotel,
I get to see some of my friends!!
I got to meet Lulu and KahLeong!! We spent the whole day shopping, I had
lunch with Lulu in 1Utama which is now a very large Mall just outside KL.
It was a quite good ramen shop, although they gave very little sashimi
to us :(.
I bought some omiyages for the people back home, rushed over here and
there before finally getting picked up by KahLeong outside the mall.
He drove this cute Kancil that seemed small for his size hahaha. Anyway
we went to Petaling street, and shopped some more.
I bought 3 cool T-Shirts that I hope won't be ruined by washing. It has
a printed monkey face that's just catchy and good. I'll post up a pic
when I wear it.
I also gave 2 of the other T-Shirts to My Dear and he loved it!! Thank
Goodness!!
I caught a glimpse of a good oriental looking bag but didn't get to ask
how much was it for. :(
I also bought some J-Drama VCDs with Bahasa Malaysia text which I 'm
sure not many people would love reading it. Anyway it's for me myself so
I'm pretty satisfied.
I have yet to watch them though. Plus I bought an original DVD of Grave
of the Fireflies live action for RM 12 something hopefully with a good
English subtitle.
I ate a so-so Char Siew Rice with Kah Leong. They gave so many Char
Siews that we couldn't finish them all! I actually have unclear pics of
the Char Siew and the Petaling Street. Will Post them when I get home.
What a wonderful... stress-free ... day!
After a few days over there in KL, I've realized how much my English
have deteriorated (verbally).
But, I have the amazing ability to adapt to my surroundings and within
two days have reduced myself to a sound Manglish!
Now I need to review the hotel. I stayed at Eastin Hotel in Damansara.
Overall it deserved the 4 star it has received, and I'd give them that
in any review.
First time I came it was 12 PM, and they didn't have a room ready yet
for me.. which is quite dissapointing because I had wanted to freshen
myself up.
The room was spacious but bare, kind of boring and lack of decoration.
But still the large space is good.
The bed is a bit too hard for me, but since I'm alone and it's a queen
size, I can roll around for all I want.
Then they didn't have an international adapter, which I desperately
needed for my laptop, so I headed to Mid Valley and bought myself one.
After a few days I think all the housekeeping, room service people has
known me. I've called almost to all extensions available.
The internet is 40 RM per 24 hours, that's quite a lot but I guess its
hotel rates. The speed is OK.
I had some problems with the telephone lines. On two of the three phones
in my room and bathroom, it keeps saying "You have message" but I
couldn't do anything about it.
On another phone, I could call to the other extensions but I couldn't
call outside with the 9 + Number code, so I had to bug the operators on
and on.
The good thing is , for failled calls they didn't charge me anything. I
remembered in some hotels they would charge you for trying to call even
to a busy or wrong number.
The basic amenities were ok, good packaging. They didn't check the mini
bar when we went out, they just asked me if I consume anything and they
just trust me. (Yes I'm telling the truth that I didn't consume anything!)
The conclerge were nice people, I like them the most compared to the
front desk people. So I gave them a RM 5 tip on my way off.
So that's how I gave them the 4 star they deserved. Hope my next trip
would be better (Or maybe I'll stay in a better hotel downtown)
Here's a pic of the hotel where I'm staying! bare,huh?
Geez, another cousin of mine got formally proposed! Another one! In a
few months I've heard of so many weddings.
Whats the hurry gals?
Are the boys getting scarce or what?
Anyway congratulations and hope I can wear something nice for u guys
wedding
And a curious zebra!
Things does not have to go my way, they just have to be right... and I
happen to be telling you the right way to do it...
LOL
I found a new destination to go. Disneyland.
A perfect place where at least I think my good dreams should come true.
Though I haven't heard people around me buzz after going there but
still... a must see.
When can we go? How can we go?
Still searching, but never gives up.
I hope I can go there .. before I'm too old to enjoy it!
A typical title for a typical story.
Women are happy with a happy partnership life, preferrably with a good
husband or spouse.
Women are happy with a happy career life, a career where it isn't
crucial for her to have but where she can explore and test her abilities
and not be bored with life.
How many women have this? I just want to write on people I think have
what they want.
As far as I can remember I have only 2 good friends that I think have
this, one is Lulu, a happy wife with a photo studio as a job, she
travels from Bandung to KL every now and then. From her husband to her
family and job. Wonderful, simply enviable.
The other one is a pretty friend from my junior high, she is beautiful,
she is happily single, and she has a career in linguistics and joins a
drama/theatre group. Maybe not as life-fulfilling as my previous friend
but she seemed pretty satisfied.
In the end I just want to question, how happy are you, are me ? :D I'm
always in awe when I read about their lives, but actually, mines aren't
that bad either.. hah ha.. well I hope the worse part of my life proves to be well worth it.
A wrong movie for the wrong country to play. Though I am sure and have
witnessed that many liked the idea!
I myself am not impressed by the idea, well I must remember that it IS
from a comic book.
Exploding the parliament building (by a supposedly protagonist) is
stupid whether it's in real life or in a movie.
How does the author / writer think to impress a reader of the idea of
blowing up the parliament building?
"Wow, what a great idea, blow up the symbol of the people. Kill
government officials, then... ? Leave the reader to think what's next."
I'm giving it a C.
| The Keys to Your Heart |
 You are attracted to good manners and elegance. In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you. You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic. Your ideal relationship is traditional. Without saying anything, both of you communicate with your hearts. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted. |
| You Have a Melancholic Temperament |
 Introspective and reflective, you think about everything and anything. You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for your ideal life. You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is usually too chaotic for you. Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find inner peace. You tend to be spiritual, having found your own meaning of life. Wise and patient, you can help people through difficult times. At your worst, you brood and sulk. Your negative thoughts can trap you. You are reserved and withdrawn. This makes it hard to connect to others. You tend to over think small things, making decisions difficult. |
| You Are a Caramel Crunch Donut |
 You're a complex creature, and you're guilty of complicating things for fun. You've been known to sit around pondering the meaning of life... Or at times, pondering the meaning of your doughnut. To frost or not to frost? To fill or not to fill? These are your eternal questions. |
We went to this restaurant in Menteng, called Miranda.
I went there a few times before when I was 'younger' with my fam. And I
remembered that they sell Ox Tongue steak, and that my dad and sis liked
it quite a lot.
So I brought my dear there in hope to introduce him to the Ox Tongue world.
Surprisingly though, the word Ox Tongue now had more impact on us than
when I was younger, probably the fault of a popular TV show called "Fear
Factor".
So every bite that he took, that I took, we kept thinking about the idea
of tongue eating. Very hillarious and he named it "Psychological war" .
Very haunting, I could even feel it now.
Otherwise the Tongue was quite acceptable, though a stronger sauce could
help get rid of the "tongue aura".
Maybe if we could find another restaurant with a better concoction for
the Tongue that kept our mind above it.
A friend typed to me, that he's going to a wedding being the bestman,
and went insanely annoyed with the bride and groom before the wedding.
And even the bride seemed to be annoyed at the groom, and vice versa. So
spouses-to-be went fighting in public and all. Well perhaps one party is
embarassed about the other one and tries to stop and there goes a
fight.. How many people in the world are able to say to their spouses
something like, "Honey I love you but don't do that, it's annoying"
without getting a fight going on afterwards.
Especially if it's in front of other people, and you saw a friend or
even your spouse embarassing themselves, or making other people
uncomfortable, and you just itch to tell them to stop but they can't
take a hint!
Well I pity my friend but glad he's through with it.
For the rest of the world, good luck with your friends and spouse.
So I watched the movie last night, and rated it somewhere B to B+
But the more I think about it, now after 18 hours later I couldn't
remember much of it. Which is a shame.
And which inclines me to think whether the movie was not as good as it
seemed to me after all.
The story was less the same, a bit dramatized, and I wasn't as stunned
with the culture as I felt I should be.
Most of the time the movie was dark, and the rich culture and simple
details failed me.
Some controversies involving what is geisha:
1. Depicted as Not a prostitute
2. But sells / auctions her virginity
3. Finally succumbs to have a danna who pays all her expenses in return
to her time, art, body?
Most people I think, and I, watched the movie because we wanted to see a
movie of a hard
and beautiful profession. But it seemed that the movie focuses more on
the love life of Sayuri.
Nevertheless, interesting and entertaining. Quite worth the money :D
Tidak semua orang itu baik dengan tulus.
Hampir semua orang jahat dengan tulus.
Kalaupun ada orang jahat yang tidak tulus, pura-pura jahat, berarti dia
sebenarnya baik jadi lebih bagus lagi.
So trust the bad guys, they don't fail you.
I think there's a famous saying that supports this, but I forgot what.
Religion Is Dangerous said a merchant in Taiko.
Why? Because it can easily gather many followers, and therefore is a
powerful 'weapon' if used.
Since religion is too complex, much bigger than our human apprehension,
therefore we cannot define valid religions by mere perception.
Because we have no right nor power to stop, ban, or proclaim a religion
wrong,
therefore we have no right nor power to stop the actions of the follower
except by mere human/nation law.
Therefore, religion is dangerous.
Yesterday bought some ballet dvds, and turned out disappointing, the
first one turned out to be a parody ballet with she-males. ha ha..
The second one, was George Balanchine's Nutcracker, supposedly, but
turned out to be Maurice Bejart's Nutcracker.
A bit of modern, though I must admit I liked how Felix the Cat seemed to
fly all around the room.
I don't really understand the story, need to do some research to
enjoy it.
I'm so misunderstood.
I'm not sure why.
And I do so misunderstood
or so people tell me.
Are things out of the loop for me
in purpose
or just because?
Am I saying this coz
I'm really feeling the right thing
or did I misunderstood
I had bad dreams these days..
The first one is a few days ago, my dad was swimming in some sort of
lake, and there are a few other kids swimming there too. Then somehow
there's a large crocodile at the edge of the lake.
and the kids played around and sort of touched the crocodile's nose and
quickly get away. I don't know why, but my dad approached the crocodile
too, he touched the nose with his leg, like the kids, but he didn't get
away fast enough and the crocodile at his whole right leg. It was very
gory, scary, and terrifying for me. Then I head Dad's voice saying in
his melancholic way "wah.. papa kena ni wi.. gimana dong wi.. " It was
very sad because I was so far.. and his voice sounded like he gave up.
Then Dad's struggling to get to land but the crocodile was very fast
behind him... then I woke up.
I really wanted to cry..and I kept thinking that if it truly happens
what could I do? Run to him and hit the crocodile? Shoot some stones at
the crocodile? What?
I don't think I'll forget this dream. And I am making sure of that by
putting this in the blog.
The second dream was last night.
I was talking to my boss, my dear 'brother' that I wanted to resign. And
he didn't so much prevented me to go, but he has this very dissapointed
look on his face. He was like 'You've dissapointed me after all I've
done for you and all my hopes for you' and eventually he puts up this
'whatever' attitude and he doesn't care anymore what I do.
This is very hurtful! Then I said "well I'm not sure if I can make it
there anyway, a success"
then he answered, "That's why! and We've never doubted you here." but he
didn't say that to keep me from going. He's just saying that.. 'look at
the difference between me and your future company'. And then he gave me
some simple task that I can't concentrate on doing because I was so
devastated with the way he reacts.
God Help Me.
Very scared... very sad..
5h17 it's hard to be different.
Yin was the moon
Yang was the sun
They never met.
But then again, did not the sun rays reached the moon after all?
But then again, aren't they a perfect circle?
But then again, who cares?

Dear Friends,
"Sugar we're going down swinging... I'll be your number one... "
the lyric is unrelated, but I'm definitely reminded of all of you when
I'm hearing the song.
It's like we're all standing on a high mountain, and I'll be leaving,
dropping to the midst of nowhere. Hopefully for the better.
Please pray for me good friends. Please don't get angry with me..
Although there's also a possibility that you will be happy with me gone,
I don't mind. I will miss you anyway.
I'll be doing a huge jump, hopefully if I fall, you will still be there
to catch me.
Thank you for so much good time.
Your Humble Turtle.
Once again I'm at the same fork of road.
Both roads leads to fine places, I don't know which one I should go to..
I don't want to be a materialistic girl. I don't want to be a person who
doesn't know how to bide her time.
Yet I don't want to be someone who always loses good chances, and this
is a good chance.
Should I?
Tell me, book of answers. What does my heart say?
Even without the numbers, I will be as confused. It's not about the
numbers, it's about the opportunity. It's about how life would be
afterwards.
I want to ask everyone what their opinion is, but I know everyone would
say it's up to me.
But I can't help it.. I'm just not sure.
What should I do ?!
When I saw all about her
When I read everything else
When I imagined all about her
I want to forget myself
want to forget who I am, what I was, What I became..
When I remembered about her
I said sorry.. to myself.
Yay! It's been 1 year and 5 months ( + 1 if you count the posting date)
Me be very happy. Hopefully this will last years and years and years to
come.....
I adore you!
Running Running
Reaching for your Hope
Running Running
Once Again
Behind the frown
Did I see a hint of a sly smirk
Just as I pass by
I know you're holding on
Friends as we are
We'd meet while we run
saying hi
And it's morning all over again
While we run...
I don't want to play games with you. I've had enough. You've had enough.
It's sometimes wrong to say the truth.
I'll hold you dear but we won't be together.
I've seen enough people trying to leave me.. and left me.. with anger,
with sadness, or just simply shut me down.
Am I so wrong?
I remembered crying, I remembered pleading, I remembered all the hurt,
but I can't learn. I'm so stupid.
But I can't understand.. how can people leave so casually?
I need people who never leave me.. I need that kind of friend...
I need you to never leave me..
A: Wow you hit another homerun! How do you feel about this?
B: I know it's gonna happen.
A: Wow, so are you aspiring to be a no 1 batter?
B: Not really. I just really hate running.
I've always been awed, and I always worship stories of childhood
friendship. Friendship that lasts till you're all grown up.. although
most people would think it's too mushy.
I can't imagine having a friend who totally understands me and what I
do, always there, and not fall in love with him.
Therefore I also adore these childhood friendship stories that ends up
in love. ha ha.. how naive..
My top list would be...
H2. Hiro and Hikari. Although I know it's impossible for someone
to know each other so much. It breaks my heart when they din't after all
get together.
I do SOOOOOOOOOOO want Hiro and Hikari to be together. Why don't we just
rewrite the story? It's a beautiful friendship, and more of a love story
rather than Hideo's with Hikari. aah.. regret for life..
Little Women. Laurie and Jo. Not as heart wrenching but still..
Gift (Korean). *forgot the names*. This one really did end up
together. But it's not so touching..
I'll add some more when I can remember them.
But for now.. I just don't have the energy..
because H2 has left me
bereft..
I let a friend cut my hair for experience !!!
it's ... very japanese now HAHAHA
I loook like a japanese high school girl!!!
But it's all cute and fine :)) *altho it did took almost 3 hours for her
to finish with my hair*
Thanks Yumi!
A good friend just reminded me of a card game named quartet, actually it
has also popped into my head a few times this week, I don't know why.
It's a cute card system where you must collect 'family card' that
consists of 4 cards that would be distributed randomly to the players.
It's a creative way to play cards and the design is usually interesting.
I remembered that I had a set of card, and one of them was the 'Dewi'
family card. So in the family group there's Dewi Malam, Dewi Hutan, and
another two which I cannot recall. The pictures are interesting .. hmm
remembering the cards make me want to make my own card set. If only I
have the money and enough Photoshop skills .. lol
Stairs.. to be exact.
Hahaha I fell down the stairs in a stupid way..
sliding and can't stop myself.. lucky I saved my glass from peril. in
the end I got just a few bruises and a 5 inch skin scrap.
nothing much except that a certain panda was behind me and laughing
saying I fell down in a funny doink doink sequence.. err..
On another note I noticed that people deffinitely work or performed
better when a certain standard or target is set. When a person is given
a standard / target to go over to, they actually believed somewhere in
their mind that it would be possible to do it or that someone else had
done it. I've seen it numerous times, especially in Fear Factor the Tv
Show. The first person is at a disadvantage, because he/she/they don't
know what would be the normal time to do a challenge so they can only do
their 'best'. But when the second person goes, he/she (apart from
already watching how the first person does his act) knows that he/she
has to break that time limit no matter what to get the prize, and
besides the first person had proved that he can do it in such a
time.When you know someone before did it, it became something human to
do. Even if the person who did it was very strong, or that you have only
1% chance of winning.
I've also seen it in my workplace, when I set something to be done in 4
days, it was done. But of course put a time limit that's feasible if we
work efficiently. Not a time limit that's feasible if we work 12 hours a
day.
So the other day Oil of Olay held a program offering to exchange old
moisturisers with their new product Total Effects+.
So mom and I went to the mall at 9.45 AM, before the shops have openned,
and we head to the stall once the doors were openned.
When we got there apparently there's already around 60 people (God knows
from where since the door has just openned). I counted around 60 people
then out of nowhere annoying people come and cut the line, friends from
those in front of us. It's pretty annoying but I thoguht it'd get only
to 70 people or so, but by the time the stall openned at 11.40 (yes it's
a 2 hours wait!) so many people had cut the line.
And guess what, Mom and I didn't get it coz we were the 101st person
from a 100 quota... bummer.
Bad marketing system.. They claimed that they're not responsible for the
line cuts and all.. and I agree, but if I got there at 11.45 and cut the
line in front of their eyes, would they let me ?
It's all probably a lie. Maybe there are some of their own people too in
the line. Cutting the quota short.
So the government decided to raise the price.. again..
Can't they find any other solution besides making the poor poorer and
the rich richer?
If the problem lies in too many vehicles going around then why do they
give each Representative a lux car?
And all the marketing program involves giving cars away?
Why not instead take all the illegal money from the corruptors instead?
Heck Indonesia's rich enough to let outsiders take its oil for cheap
