Assignment Bonanza

My my my....

Passed up 2 assignments yesterday

A demonstration next tuesday

A code challenge assignment hand in on wednesday

Another demonstration and report to hand in on friday

and the following tuesday and friday, each day demo and assignment

WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKKK!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!?!!?!?

And the FOLLOWING tuesday and wednesday are my two final papers

OH MAN.

What a busy busy schedule. You guys have no idea how dead I will be by the end of this whole thing.

So let me tell you what just happened.

Yesterday I had to pass up TWO assignments (hurrah that's 2 down 3 to go b*tches)

Okay, so here is the deal.

The first assignment, I started two weeks ago, but it wasn't until last saturday that I seriously started DOING it (hurrah I'm the world's best procrastinator)

By tuesday (which was 2 days ago)

That assignment. I did up till 70 marks out of 100.

I had to build an aircraft online reservation system.

So there was a marking scheme, and I did all the functionalities up until 70 marks could be obtained.

However, it was Tuesday. I had not done the Graphical User Interface (GUI) (So that users can click on buttons to book stuff, instead of typing things in the console window. Just imagine if you had to type stuff for your atm machine for everything other than password and digits. Yeah, that's why they have GUIs. So people just click buttons to get things done.)

The GUI was worth 10 marks, and I had to pass it up the next morning (yesterday morning)

So the thing is. I spent the ENTIRE tuesday just sitting down trying to create the GUI. I started at 10am.

And it was.... Not such a pleasant experience. I was trying and trying to get it to work. It couldn't compile. The code was not working.

So here was my dilemma. I had the OTHER assignment (remember I said I passed up 2 assignments)

Which I have NOT started the report. (It's a report on the documentation of mercurial Hg WORTH a WHOPPING 40% which I have not started )

So I had to decide. It was 8pm. My GUI was not working.

I had to decide. Do I continue doing the GUI. Or do I do the other assignment?

Do I leave the first assignment at 70 marks out of 100, and start doing the other assignment?

Or do I continue trying to get the GUI to work, and risk not being able to finish the other assignment which was worth 40%?

I had to make a decision.

If you were me what would you have done?

And there's really no real correct answer here. Ya know.

So what did I do? Make a guess.

I FREAKING TOLD MYSELF 70 OUT OF 100 IS FREAKING NOT GOOD ENOUGH HOW CAN I ALLOW MYSELF TO SETTLE FOR SECOND BEST?!?!?!?!?! I DESERVE A FUCKING 100 OUT OF 100 DAMMIT AND I WONT SLEEP UNTIL I DO THE FUCKING GUI!!! YOU GOT THAT?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!!!?

.

Sorry I get a little... Emotional when it's my time of the year (because it's the assignment time of the year)

So, I KEPT on doing it, persistently. I just sat there. It kept failing and failing AND failing. I felt so. Discouraged. I felt like giving up.

I even said to myself. "Maybe this can't be done. Maybe there's no way to get it to work".

If I had listened to myself then, and abandoned that assignment, I would not have achieved what I had achieved the following day.

It was around 9pm, I was frustrated so I started to walk around the house. I always do that when I'm thinking about something. Of course my mom just thinks I'm crazy when I'm doing that because I look like a walking bullet train trying to ram an entire city to death do us part.

I sat down again. Then I thought "what if... THIS thing here, THIS portion of the code, was the problem? I might have closed the socket of the server, so that's why the client is unable to send messages to the server and request for booking"

I made the changes. I deleted that part and put it in another section, so that the closing of the sockets only occur when the user CLOSES the GUI.

AND YES OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCK HELL YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS IT FUCKING WORKEDDDDDDD~!!!!!!! IT MANAGED TO WRITE DATA TO THE SERVER~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I INCREASED MY POINTS TO 80 out of 100!! IM CLOSER TO MY TARGET!!!!!!!!!

OH HELLL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~!!!!

So then after I did the GUI.. I stopped. I said.

Oh shit. It's 1am. Fuck. I haven't started on my other assignment.

So I said "oh boy, no sleep for me tonight"

So yeah! I started doing the report on the documentation on the mercurial hg which was my other assignment.

I did it until 4.30am. Then I said...

Oh shit... The other assignment is still only at 80 out of 100. I NEED MORE MARKS DAMMIT.

In order to get the other 20 out of 100 marks, I needed to add additional features to the GUI.

I started thinking.. Hey, maybe the user wants to see their history when the next time they login

So I created a button, called HISTORY where when the user clicks it, it will open ANOTHER GUI frame which shows ALL the history of the user's previous activities during their last login to the server.

And I made it so that the server was RECORDING all user activities for each user and storing it in text files.

Also, I made the GUI have a FLIGHT INFO button, so that users can open a list of dates of flights to book.

I finished at 8am.

I waited for my bro, and we went to college.

I entered class. I wasn't walking straight. It was 22 hours of looking at the computer screen. (okay so I did watch 3 or 4 episodes of the big bang theory but hey everyone needs to laugh a little everyday)

I sat down. I copied my program into one of the lab computers.

It wasn't WORKING. DAMMIT.

It was not able to open the project file. It seems that the software in the lab was of an older version hence it could not read the file.

OH SHITTTT~!

But all hope was not lost. I decided to open it, and then. Manually transfer the code, by copying and pasting it into a new project of the old version of that software.

One after another file. Copy, paste, compile. To make sure it works.

After a long while....

I clicked "Execute Project"

The screen came up. I thought SHIT. No GUI screen is appearing. My friends were like teasing me, saying that "hohoho it might not work it might not appear"

And at that point, I was wondering if their curse had really worked. There was no time for me to modify the code anymore at that point.

And then I realized, I only opened the server file. I haven't opened the client file which was where the GUI was. LOL!!!!!!!!

Hahaha, I must've been too tired.

Anyhow, I opened the client file. Logged- in.

Then I waited. No GUI.

..... this can't be happening......

THEN VOILA!!!! THE GUI FRAME APPEARED!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! I WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

OMG IT WORKS! I TESTED THE BUTTONS IT WAS WORKING! FULLY FUNCTIONAL WITHOUT PROBLEMS!!!!!!

I RECEIVED A FUCKING 98 OUT oF 100 FOR THAT AWESOMELY EPIC PROGRAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH HALLELUJAH!!!!!! IT'S LIKE THE WORLD IS FILLED WITH WONDERFUL FLOWER FIELDS IN WHICH I AM RUNNING THROUGH THEM LIKE A LITTLE INNOCENT HORNY BOY!!!!! =)))))

OH YEAHHHHH BABY I PAWN THEM ALL!!! THE SECOND HIGHEST WAS 82 OUT OF 100!!!!!! BWAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

.
.
.
.

Sorry I get a little emotional when I get too attached to my projects. Hey I spent a lot of time on that baby. I didn't sleep.

Then I was showered with praise.

I felt so happy. Some were sincere praises, some were maybe enviable praises, some might have been jealous. But it doesn't really matter.

What really matters is , I did the best I could and I stuck with my decision. I made a difference. I learned to persevere once again when it felt like there was no way to get that GUI to work.

It made me feel that, on the road to success, there are a few points where you will really feel like giving up. It's a test. To see if you are worthy of taking the road of success. If you choose to give up, then you will slowly start to divert toward the road of failure.

And this has proven to me again, that not giving up, and persevering, is a very important aspect of life. To those who give up easily. You do not know what is waiting for you at the end of the road of success.

That satisfaction. Those praises you get from your friends and perhaps colleagues.

People were telling me "danny, you made a GUI in ONE day?"

"wow, you really did a GUI? It's damn hard you know."

"no one else did the GUI, only you did it. Wow"

"I feel like killing you now danny" (I guess he wasn't so happy with my accomplishment deep down)

"Danny, you are so smart"

To which I replied, No lah, I'm just normal only

Then she said to me, "Just take the compliment la, when people tell you a compliment you say thanks."

So I did thank her. Although I did it quite softly (was hoping she wouldn't hear it)

.
.
.
.

So if I had, just given up half way, I wouldn't have achieved that. And it matters, very much to me. It's like the world teaches me good things. Not to give up. Be good to others. Make others laugh. Make others happy.

I don't know.

I was born for a reason. Day by day I start to see the affects of my existence to others.

Maybe I was born smart. I don't know. But I do know this.

I was born to entertain.

I'm an entertainer. I was made that way. To bring smiles to people's faces.

And their smiles bring a HUGE smile to my face.

Being good in my degree is only an added bonus to that.

And it's allright if you don't take my word for it, I understand my level of capability deep down. I have still a lot to improve on. (especially time management)

I went home. Did some stuff.

Went to sleep at 10.35pm. So I was awake for about 37 hours.

BUT FUCK HELL YEA IT WAS FUCKING WORTH IT!!!!!!!

I paid 37 hours to increase my marks from 70 out of 100 to 98 out of 100

Was it worth it?

HELL YEAH IT WAS WORTH ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!! I HAVE NO FRIGGING REGRETS DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a price to pay for success. I paid my dues. In terms of time.

But let me tell you this. The price of success, may be expensive.

However, the price of being a failure your ENTIRE life, is WAY more expensive and heavier than the price of success.

So will you pay the price of failure.

Or will you pay the price of success.

Choose. Make a decision.

If you say yes to either of those question, it is no normal yes.

That yes, will determine WHAT the rest of your life will be like.

Everyone will say yes to the price of success and no to the price of failure.

But how many will actually mean their words and do what they say? Actions speak a lot louder than words. The fact is anyone can say anything except if you cannot speak.

IF I had believed that I only deserved 70 out of 100, my marks would have BEEN that much.

But my mindset is different.

You want to know the difference between me and the rest of my classmates? (no disrespect to them, they are all great people)

The only difference is I believed I could do it.

Whereas the others, didn't.

I knew I could do it. I deserved better. I don't deserve anything less than what I believe I can do.

And because I made the decision. I PAID the price.

They didn't have to pay the price, because they made the decision that 70 OUT OF 100 WAS THEIR PRICE. IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM. (most of them actually got 76 out of 100 cuz they implemented one additional function at least)

So that's what 85% of the class got as their marks.

It isn't really smartness. That paved the way to that 98 out of 100. Trust me when I say this.

It was persistence. It was belief. It was because I saw in my mind, that I could achieve it. It's not about smartness, I'll say it again.

They thought I achieved it because of smartness. But if I did not pay my 37 hours I would not have achieved it.

Trust me. There are alot of smart people who don't accomplish anything because they do not believe in themselves. They believe they are only worth so much. So they accomplish that much.

I am persistent. I sit and stare at codes all day long. Trust me, ask my classmates.

And I don't get tired. I don't give up.

If I had to choose between having an attitude for life, and smartness

I would choose attitude, definitely. Smartness does not determine where you get in life. Attitude does.

That's why I don't like to talk about my smartness. I never really had before. Very scarcely even on this blog.

I don't want people to just see me for that. I want people to know that I am a persistent person who does not give up. I don't want people to label me for my success just based on my smartness.

I know a lot of people who are WAY smarter than me. The only way for me to beat them is to have a greater attitude than those smart people.

So that is why. I don't talk about it much. I don't really enjoy talking about it. And it's really hard for me to accept it when people say I am smart. Why can't they say I am persistent? Why can't they say I am able to genggam bara api sampai jadi arang? I would be a lot more proud of myself if they could see that in me.

But apparently they haven't. All they see is smartness. When will they ever recognize me for my true worth?

I will pay the price of success, because I do not want to live my life as a failure. And it is my responsibility to make sure I succeed. For me, and for everyone else. How else can I make others laugh if I can't even take care of my own life right?

And I won't this will be a very great life. I will go around making people laugh all the time.

And even when I am down, I will get up again even stronger than ever. Then I'll make others laugh even harder than ever. Every pitfall is an opportunity, not a curse.

I will become and inspiration to everyone who wants to succeed.

I want everyone to say, I want to be just like that guy, who never gave up, who does WHAT IT TAKES to get the job down without excuses.

I pay the price. Will you pay the price for your success?

.
.
.
.
.
..

Wow , that was longer than usual. I guess I haven't blogged for a while that's why. The war isn't over for me yet. I still got loads of assignments. As long as I presevere, I will do better. I will make a change. I will become a great 1st class honours student.

And because of that my mom will stop nagging me once and for all. (haha)

My adult life, is nearing. Once I leave college, it's the next level. And having a 1st class is a good head start, though it is not the main deciding factor in determining my life's success.

I will do it. For my sake, and everyone else.

Good night ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for reading yet another long Danny Siah post. (Really, thank you if you really read all the way until here it means the world to me if I ever find out who you are I will thank you profusely for doing me the honor.)

P.S. After yesterday's events I had a cooldown period today by watching 23 episodes of the big bang theory and playing resident evil 5 destroying that huge zombie asswipe by blasting my machine gun at his balls. Stress reliever much? Whole day, wasted? Nah, I won't get a break for a long time at the rate my schedule is going, so today was my last day off (in a longggggggggg time)

Ciaoz peeps! I dont know when but I'll SEE YA NEXT TIMEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! =DDDDD

Although assignments are SLAUGHTERING ME but let us not talk about that XD

.
.
.

You know what? Today, in the lab, I was actually... Erm.. Class haven't started yet that time

I was watching youtube videos in the lab

and I was actually watching this swimsuit modelling contest( OMFG THE CHICKS THERE ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOT)

On youtube, and, um, out of the blue, behind me... "WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING?"

After class, went out for lunch, came back to college, wanted to do work , but the lab was being used.

SO! I instead went to the student service department.

AND THAT WAS IT LAR. LOL.

I STARTED PLAYING PING PONG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!!

MAN! WE LAUGHED LIKE CRAZY LA!! HAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHA!!! IT WAS LIKE!! I SERVE THE BALL!! AND IT WENT BOUNCING ON THE TABLE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

AND LOADS OF OTHER FUNNY SHIT! EVEN THE PEOPLE WATCHING US WERE LAUGHING!!

hahahahahahahahahaha!! total fun after a day of work! XD

Made some new friends today! I think her name was julie... ermh... YEA! and the guy was... leon. Mm.. They remember me! From orientation ahahahaha!

Cuz on orientation last monday, when vicky gave me the mike I went "IM SO HORNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!"

HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

TOTAL AWESOME FUN!!

So anyhow! Even they started laughing when we were playing ping pong XD Was playing with the new intake guys, they are so AWESOME and FUN! bwahahaha!

.
.
.
.

I realized this, my personality is ACTUALLY pretty easy to get along with. Catch my drift?

I have a very ... easy going and likeable personality~! I just realized that!

CUZ EVERYWHERE I GO I JUST TEND TO MAKE PEOPLE LAUGH JUST BY THE WAY I LOOK! ROFL!!! HAHAHAHHAHA!!

AND PEOPLE ACTUALLY LAUGH AND WE BECOME FRIENDS AND THE WHOLE WORLD IS SAVED AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! XDDDDDD

HAHAHAHAHA!

And I also realized that a very huge reason is because of my laugh!

just now around 5.30pm, I was talking to my new friends in the canteen and ANOTHER friend of mine from the floor above SAID SHE COULD HEAR ME!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

ROFL! AHHHHH~!! LIFE IS GREATTTTTT~!! =DDDDD

So in life, we should

fall in love

forgive

laugh with all your heart

remember the good times

love your family

love your friends

have fun

be y0urself

be happy

live everyday like it was your last

.
.
.

Now, it is kind of weird, but in my experience, falling in love is a really great process. It's actually good for health when you are in love. The brain releases certain hormones that make you feel like you are in cloud nine.

You could say it's a drug? haha! A natural one =)

Don't worry so much about falling outta love. If I had to do it all over again I still would have gone back and fallen in love with the same girls that I did fall in love with throughout the course of my 20 years on this earth.

Its umh... A really good experience, and remember that nothing comes for free in this world, if you want to fall in love you must be prepared to fall out of it as well. And trust me 90% of the time it happens =)

So yes, and I know that I have learnt a great deal from all those experiences. Ya know? So no regrets, forgive quickly, and move on, life's too short to be crying over spilt milk ya know?

THERE ARE SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS ABOUT LIFE!! AND THE NUMBER ONE REASON ITS SO WONDERFUL IS BECAUSE WE HAVE THE FREEDOM TO DO WHAT WE WANTTTTT~!!! =D

.
.
.

You know that, I actually, discovered that because of my gift of laughter, I've been able to make others laugh too? Yes, I made others laugh their hearts out! And honestly it's the best kind of pleasure I could ever get. More than watching porn.

I'm happy. Thank you for granting me this treasure, I shall use it to make EVERYONE I MEET LAUGH! =D It's so great.

And I want each and everyone of you to know. That all of you have gifts. Gifts that were specially made for you. Something that makes you stand out and different from one another. That gift makes you special and unique.

Never take it for granted. It is the best thing that could ever happen to you. And to me, each and everyone of you who are reading this right now, deep down I know you are someone beautiful and you have a great gift. It doesn't matter what others say about you or your gift. You gotta LIVE your gift.

People often complain I'm too loud when I laugh. So yes, I apologize to them, but I still believe that my gift is used for the reason of making others laugh. It doesnt waiver my determination =)

When someday, you understand your own gift, and use it to make other people's life wonderful, then maybe you'll understand what I mean =)

It's so wonderful. All of us are so blessed. In ways we couldn't imagine. If everyone saw how beautiful they really are on the inside, and started to love themselves, and start to gain confidence about themselves, then the world, will be a very peaceful place!

So I shall end here for today, it was so great. Today feels like a very blessed day. Thank you. For reading. You never know how much it means to me =)

And to those whose lives cross paths with me, I am sorry if I was not able to make you laugh with my gift, and you are welcome if I DID make you laugh =D

May our paths cross again reader =)

My Gift

It's been a roller coaster ride of a week, and I was pretty busy, either with assignments or other things.

This week I realized something quite important. And I just had to blog it out, despite not having much time. Otherwise I might forget this important thing.

I realized, that I'm quite different from a lot of people. I don't know if it's a good thing, but I'm definitely different in more than one way.

I realized, that I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO loud. SO SO SO SO SO SO SOOOO LOUD!! Very loud. Loud. VERY VERY loud.

I think you get my point =)

So loud, sometimes, that I might annoy people, so loud, that sometimes I might disturb people, or cause others to dislike me.

But it is also that loudness and craziness that is one of my gifts from above. I am able to put smiles on people's faces just by laughing out loud! It's crazy! I don't know how I do it either, but I do!

It's... Really special... And I just realized this lately. I always thought that I was too loud also. But I didn't realize, that it had that kind of purpose.

The energy that I generate from laughing is so contagious that eventually people around me start LAUGHING! And... I'm really happy when I can do that.

I started to understand my true calling in life.

I am born to entertain. That's Danny Siah. The great entertainer. The greatest one that may have ever lived.

Though I still got lots to learn =)

I'm happy to have lived so much already. Though there is a lot more of life to 'live'. I believe that. And with each passing day, I do feel as though, more and more of what I could be, is appearing. Slowly, but surely.

We are all on a journey to find ourselves. To find our true calling and definite purpose of being on this earth.

Most of the time we are confused about what we are doing here. But I start to understand, a small piece of my own puzzle. In a few years... I would collected even more pieces of my puzzle

And it will form that image. That picture.

An amazing and wonderful picture. Of my life.

The process of life is truly and amazing thing. Thank you for this great gift you have given me, whoever you are who created me =) I will put it to good use to bring smiles to everybody's faces.

Goodnight folks have a wonderful night =)

I Dreamt About Her.......?

OH man.... I just woke up over an hour ago.

I had this very weird dream.... I was... somewhere.. It was night. The buildings were old. It was like a very empty china town.

I can't remember what happened prior to that.

Suddenly the girl next to me broke down

Girl : You never loved me!

Me : No, it's not true! I've... missed you all this while. Everyday... But I'm okay now...

I hugged her. For a long time...

I felt a huge burden off my heart.

That girl... It's her... Why??? Why??? Why????

Ah, it's just a dream. I probably shouldn't think too much about it.

I must've probably been too tired. After all, the past 3 days were quite tiring.

Still though, it's rare.. to remember your dreams. It felt real, it felt like I was really saying those words out loud. Did I? I will never know.

The worst part is... It isn't the first time... To dream about that girl. Fuckkkkk. Why won't these dreams just leave me alone?

Though the other time she was in bed and I was ... touching her ass. And she was on my PARENTS bed.

I don't know about you, but I just think that's freaking creepy and F-ed up!!

FUCK MAN. Why the hell are my dreams so weird???????? I HATE IT!!!

Man I'm ranting like an emotional bitch.

Have you ever had such dreams?

I just find it ... So strange and real and unreal at the same time. I just don't get it. Why couldn't I dream about something or someone else? AND WHY DO I HAVE TO REMEMBER IT?!?!?!

Does anyone knows about dreams? What is the weirdest dream you ever had that you remember?

Maybe I should look it up. They say dreams, have certain meanings. I don't know if it's true.

You ever had that dream where you walked off the cliff? And you really felt like you were gonna fall and woke up?

Yea! I had it too. When I woke up, it felt like gravity was pushing me back down to bed again (thankfully!)

And my leg was really in midair (walking off a cliff position)



.

I looked this up on wikipedia

"Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions and sensations occurring involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. The content and purpose of dreams are not yet understood, though they have been a topic of speculation and interest throughout recorded history. The scientific study of dreams is known as oneirology."

"The definition of dream used in quantitative research is defined through four base components: 1) a form of thinking that occurs under minimal brain direction, external stimuli are blocked, and the part of the brain that recognizes self shuts down; 2) a form of experience that we believed we experience through our senses; 3) something memorable; 4) have some interpretation of experience by self. In summary, a dream, as defined by Bill Domhoff and Adam Schneider, is "a report of a memory of a cognitive experience that happens under the kinds of conditions that are most frequently produced in a state called 'sleep.' "

Hmm.. There are more stuff they wrote on dreams. But perhaps I'll read up more on that when I get home. I gotta go, got stuff to do at college =D

I'm lovin' this girl right here... Mm mm... =333


Most guys I know actually have trouble getting over their break ups. The thing about break ups is..

about 60-80% of the time, it is initiated by the girl, not the guy. (girl dumps guy)

Usually because girls are better at detecting when a relationship is way past gone.

There are exceptions, but definitely, more than half are initiated by girls. Remember, I'm talking about relationships, not flings.

Guys don't always get off so easy, especially if they are still in love with their girl. (Players are an exception)

The process usually goes, you meet a girl, you start to spend a lot of time with her, you feel a surge, a flow of positive emotions within you, and you. Fall. In. Love.

This girl is special. This girl is one of a kind. No other girl has made me feel this way.

You feel like the happiest person on earth. You feel like you can achieve ANYTHING together that comes your way.

Nothing can stop you. That is the euphoric emotion, and beginning stages of falling in love.

Due to this addictive and incredible feeling, breaking up could really just make you fall apart.

Easily. I've had a guy friend who told me personally that he could not eat for a month after his girl broke up with him. Poor guy. But I'm sure the girl was doing what she felt she had no choice but to do.

No one is really right or wrong here, it just happens that it couldn't be.

So the question really is, how DO you get over a break up?

1) There is an ABUNDANCE of HOT women

Give me a sec while I look this data up....

There are 6,911,287,052 people in the WORLD right now.

(taken from http://opr.princeton.edu/popclock/)

That's right, 6.91 BILLION people in the WORLD.

More than half of them are women! (You do know that there are more girls than guys on the planet right?)

Meaning that more there are more than 3.45 BILLION women on earth!

Let's say that 10% of them are hot in YOUR eyes, that leaves you with 345MILLION hot chicks to OGLE at.

lets say out of that, 5% are women with personality that YOU are attracted to.

Which gives you.... *counts in head*

17,250,000 possible candidates for you to date and marry.

I don't know about you, but if you meet just 100 out of these 17,250,000 WOMEN, chances are you'll fall in love =)

(And I REALLY did count in my head, just so you know, mental maths ftw. I learnt abacus when I was young =D )

So LIGHTEN UP! There are SO many HOT women out there for you, there is no reason to say that there is no girl better than the girl whom broke up with you. You just never know, really!

And I didn't even count the girls who have very attractive personalities, but are sadly not gifted with an equally good look to boot.

But hey, personality way overshadows looks man. In. Every. Way.

Get over your break up by EMBRACING this fact! It's a fact! I ain't lying here. The only thing you can do is move on. Or forever stay where you are, never knowing if there really is someone else out there for you who COULD love you back. Your choice bro.

2) Dig Deep

Remember that time? Yes, that time. That time, you were a capable, self-sustaining and attractive man. Do you remember?

You got women attracted to you. Do you remember? Even if you don't, it's there inside you. He's just not awake at the moment.

Before this relationship, that's how you were

Dig deep, and remember that man! Where are you? Where is the real you? The real you hasn't appeared for so long.

The real you is the most amazing you. And no other you can beat that. Not the sad you. Not the heartbroken you. Not the you who is unable to be honest with yourself.

Connect with yourself

And now, you must take. Action.

See that cute girl over there? GO talk to her!

Who knows. She might be the next 'perfect' girl for you!

What if she's even MORE perfect than the previous girl?

THINK ABOUT THE POSSIBILITIES!

Once you understand the abundance mindset, and once you dig deep and take action towards becoming the real you, you'll find that, life is good once again =)

You'll see life through rose-colored glasses.

And remember that EVERY relationship you go through enriches yourself with experience. So take it as a learning curve for yourself. And I promise you'll do better and become an even MORE attractive person next time round =)

lol. You. Know. What.

I ALWAYS GET SERVED LAST!!!!!! THROUGHOUT THE LUNCH COURSE!!

)(#@(#_@!(!$()@(#_!#)!@)#@!%$

Let's just say a very fei mao had something to do with it =3

HEY! Guess what. After practice, had a chat with a few buddies, and I got home, had dinner, opened facebook. ANDDDDD, I received a message from a girl by the name of Phoebe Tay!

She came across my blog here and linked it to hers! HOW COOL IS THAT!!! I linked her at the side so DO check out her blog! >>>>>>>

The best thing is, we don't KNOW each other! XD Man, I sure am getting all psyched over this XD

So anyhow! you can FOLLOW me too! with this link =D So do subscribe and let your friends know if you think reading this blog would help them! =D

So let's see now.... Previously we talked about what women want from men. And it was for men to listen to them talk and let it all out of their system.

Now the profound thing here is...

As a guy, we can NEVER understand how women are able to talk so much.

It's not really a bad thing, it's just that guys don't talk as much. Why is this so? What makes them good or rather, great at talking?

.
.
.
.
.



The reason is that women's left and right hemisphere are BETTER connected than men.

Imagine a human brain. The thing that links the left and right hemisphere is known as the corpus callosum

And it is more profound and has a much stronger connectivity in women than in men.

Think of it this way, men have a dial-up connection between their left and right brain, while women have a FIBRE OPTIC connection.

This is because the female hormone, oestrogen, is the reason for women developing a better structured and stronger corpus callosum than men. So you could say, women, by way of their hormone, are made for speech =)

The more fluent flow of information in women also brings out one of women's inborn talent.

MUTLI-TASKING

Incase you haven't noticed, majority of women are particularly good at MUTLI-TASKING. They are so good, that they can actually listen and talk to each other at the SAME TIME.

Remember in the previous post, where I mentioned that guys can EITHER listen OR talk? We can't do both.

But women can. Brain scans of women show that while they are talking to each other, the listening areas of the brain are also functioning. Most guys would fail if they had to do both.

I can NEVER do work in class, and listen to my lecturer speaking at the same time. It is extremely hard for me to do both. But women have a better chance of doing it. Both.

Also, women are able to talk about SEVERAL subjects, all at once, in a single sentence, and keep up with the information that is being passed to one another, about different subjects.

Which explains why women can talk non-stop and sometimes men simply get lost in a group of women chatting. (If you ever sat in a group of 4 women or more, and you are the only guy you'll get what I mean XD)

After a while, I usually go like... What are we talking about? Haha!



I agree with the pic, just so you know =3

.

So, why else is this connectivity between the two brains important?

The speech and linguistic areas of the brain is located in the frontal area of the left and right brain in women.

In men, the area of the brain for speech and language is in mainly in the left hemisphere, and it has no specific area and is lesser than in women.

Due to this, men take more time to process information out into speech form, explaining why men tend to use 'ah, uh... er...' and pause more often than women.

Also if you realize, most linguistic and language teachers are WOMEN.

While most teachers in maths, physics and science are MEN.

.

I have also personally realized this myself. I started to pay closer attention when guys and girls speak.

Yesterday, I was watching 'So You Think You Can Dance', the AWESOMELY FANTABULOUS dance show =3

And I realized the male judges were using a lot of pauses, uhhhh, ahhhhs, errrr... when speaking and giving comments to the contestants

On the other hand, the women judges who spoke, are more fluent and fluid in their speaking, using more words, and they don't really pause a lot, and they don't use all those uhhhh, ahhhs, etc.

It pays, to pay attention =3

.
.

Now let us understand, the differences between men and women when it comes to speech.

MEN, when they watch football. YOU CAN SURE AS HELL BET THEY ARE WATCHING FOOTBALL.

WOMEN, when they watch TV, YOU CAN SURE AS HELL BET THEY ARE ALSO TALKING ABOUT THE BOYS, GIRLS, SKY, EARTH, SUN, MOON, SEA, BOYS, LOVE, FAMILY, PERSONAL STUFF, POOL, PARTY, CELEBS, CLOTHES, SHOES, HAIR, FASHION, STYLE, MODELS, TV SHOWS, THE LATEST GOSSIP, PEOPLE, COLLEGE, DRAMAS, STORIES, and the list goes on and on =3

I am by no means saying that it's bad to talk while watching TV. Just that men and women are different.

Girls, when they get together to watch TV or sleepover, it's really just a reason for some pillow talks and all the juicy awesome gossips. Women are just wired that way, it's not wrong, it's just the way they are.

Guys... Well, when they are watching football, the only time they REALLY start a conversation is WHEN THE CROWD GOES WILD AND GOAAALLLLLLLLLL~!

Yea. Or they just say pass the chips.

Yeah. Men are. Men =D

So understand this, when men talk, it is to talk about facts.

When women talk, it is to build relationships and trust, and make friends.

.
.
.

Another noticeable thing is that, guys only really call another guy to if there is a REASON to call.

Like, to give or ask for information, talk about business, or something important.

On the other hand, girls can go out together shopping, and when they come back, they call each other and can continue talking for another few hours

Men relay facts, while women bond through the phone.

.
.
.

Another funny thing I would like to point out.

Whenever my mom speaks to me I never really give very good or complete replies.

My replies sound like... "Ya, mm, ok, yes. allright. ok la. mmmmm. yes la"

LOL! It just goes to show that we aren't very speechy people are we guys? Or maybe it's just me aha!

So usually moms find it easier to get a real conversation out of their daughters instead of their sons.

It's just my guess but it's probably true XD

.
.

So the question is, why are men unable to multi-task?

In olden cavemen days when men were hunters, speech was not part of their job prescription.

Their job was to hunt for food. And they do so in silence, as to not alert the prey. Often times they would wait patiently, alone, for their prey to appear before they launch their attack.

They come back, and gaze silently into the fire, thinking about the next catch.

That's how men are. After a long day of work what most men want is to gaze into the fire. Silently.

We were built this way.

When we are faced with problems, we need to think it over in SILENCE.

However, when women sees a man who is silent, she thinks he has nothing to do or is bored, so she tries to talk to him.

Sometimes, the man reacts badly when interrupted. Remember, he can't multitask.

One thing at a time. That's men =)

The same goes with me personally. When I am faced with problems in my programming, I like to think about it in silence. Wondering why and how. To resolve it.

Once a men is done thinking, then only does he show signs of animation. Otherwise he is thinking in his head.

.
.
.

On the other hand, this may sound familiar to most people... Women think out loud!

Since their brain is wired for speech, they tend to TALK about their problems.

When a woman has a list of things to do, she voices them out in no particular order.

When a man has things to do, he says "leave it to me" and he's gone.

Haha! However, because of this, once women talk to men about their problems, men tend to think that women are giving them problems to solve.

Cuz that's what men are. Problem solvers.

Women on the other hand, are talkers.

.
.
.

So here is the CATCH!

If you find that a woman talks to you a lot, take it as a good sign

Women generally use words as a method to bond with each other, and if she talks to you a lot, it shows that she has positive intentions to get closer to you

So if they like you, they talk to you. A lot.

On the other hand, if they DON'T talk to you. It's bad. I'm sure this scene is familiar

Girl : Hey do you want to drop by the petrol station for some coffee?

Guy : No, I'm fine.

*after 5 minutes of silence*

Guy : Err... Honey, did I do something wrong?

Girls : You jerk!

Guy : What did I do?

Girl : I told you to stop!

Guy : *bewildered* Well why didn't you say so?!!?

Hahahaha!

Women are indirect, and if they are SILENT, something... is generally wrong.

So if a woman tells you she doesn't EVER wanna talk to you again, take it as a VERY serious issue.

Yeap! So that's pretty much it for today!

It's interesting how different men and women are, and there are actually scientifically proven explanations, which MAKES IT EVEN MORE INTERESTING! XD

Hope you found it enjoyable, and I hope you could share it to your friends who you think would find this information useful and would help them with their relationships and daily life. Who knows! It really could benefit someone

And remember to follow this blog! =D

Thanks, and have a good night!

p.s. My assignments are waiting... what a "GOOD" night I'm gonna have XD
