Love Cannot Be Compared

爱情不能做比较 (Ai Qing Bu Neng Zuo Bi Jiao) by Baby pinyin lyrics

zhe che li shou ying ji kong qi zhong hai piao zhe yu
zai zhe ge shen ye li ni ying gai zai ta na li
you duo jiu mei zai yu jian ni
fang li mei le ni de qi xi
er wo zhong yu reng diao le ni gei wo de suo you dong xi

wo ke yi tian man le sheng huo li mei cun kong xi
wo zhi dao bu rong yi dan wo reng shi zhe ji xu
ting shuo ni bi cong qian kai xin wo hai neng you zeng yang de qing xu
chu le zhu fu wo bu xiang zai duo shuo yi ju

ta hen hao ta duo hao zhe xie wo bing bu xu yao zhi dao
zai nan wang diao duo kuang lie de yong bao
zhe hui yi ta ye gei bu dao
ta duo hao he wo bu tong de hao zui hou shi shui bu zhong yao
ying wei wo zhi dao ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao

zhe hui yi ta ye gei bu dao
ta duo hao he wo bu tong de hao zui hou shi shui bu zhong yao
ying wei wo zhi dao ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao

xi wang ni zhi dao ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao

Politics, Politics

I am never a person who is interested in politics, no matter how colorful it is... for instance, like our beloved country's politics scene which is like a long boring soap opera. Unfortunately no matter how I dislike them, I still need to know what's going on so that I can make my decision when it comes to voting time again. Even so, I still feel ashamed and depressed whenever I see how politics are used for one's own gains.

Politics do not just stop there. It is everywhere - at work, among friends and even in families. Perhaps this is how humans are built. Perhaps we are built with this defense mechanism and protectiveness towards our own interests that give us the sense of security. So whether it is to gain something, out of jealousy or merely just to vent our dissatisfaction towards someone or something, politics happen.

Sad thing is, those "innocent" ones without all these interests do get caught up in the politics conjured, and not by their own will.

"Whose side are you on?"

At times it's a no brainer to this question, at times it's really a mind boggling one. For these people, they sometimes ended up as the casualties... you know like the Malay saying "Dua gajah bertembung, pelanduk mati di tengah".

So no matter how uninvolved you want to be, sometimes it's really not your choice. Just have to learn how to protect your own ass so that you don't end up as the "pelanduk".

Politics, politics... you can't live with them, and you can't live without them either.

Know why I became a hermit with a cute dog? Cause between Axel and me, we definitely have no politics. ;-p

Sleeping Fatty

Plain Stupidity or Pure Stubbornness?

I have just returned from a 2½ days/2 nights experiential learning type of event organised by my company. The purpose of this is to instill the spirit of team work and to excel in how we do things as an individual, team and a company.

So like all other experiential learning type of events, there must be a series of activities that you go through, and from there "understand" what went wrong and what went right.

I really enjoyed myself and got to know a lot of diverse people from all the different offices in Malaysia and "worked" with them in these activities as a team although I have to say, some people are just a pain in the neck.

There was this activity where each team was given a 6ft pipe with many random small holes. One side of the pipe was sealed and it was placed upright with the sealed part as the bottom. A ping pong ball was dropped into the pipe and the team's mission was to get the ping pong ball out by pouring water into the pipe.

As there wasn't enough members in a team to accomplish this, we decided to collaborate with 3 more teams to get the task done. So some people were busy blocking those holes with their fingers and some were getting water from the lake nearby and pouring it down the pipe so that the ping pong ball could float up.

At the beginning of this process, there was this girl who decided to take her own initiative and acted without consulting others.

She took some big rocks and started to put them down the pipe. I guess she was thinking along the line that her actions would raise the water level, but she failed to see that these rocks would weigh down the ping pong ball.

When I saw her doing that, I asked "Wouldn't that be blocking the ping pong ball from floating up?".

The girl looked at me, gave me a very icy look and said "Maybe".

Then she continued to put more rocks into the pipe.

I was like... "What the ...?!!!". Is this plain stupidity or just pure stubbornness?? I was so pissed but I kept telling myself to keep my mouth shut. If I didn't, an argument would surely ensue.

Ended up, indeed her actions did not help much and we changed to another pipe to complete the task.

I am so glad that this girl is not someone that I need to work with in a long run.

Bad Romance

I am so into this song lately.
