Getting On Their Nerves.

Asking people to join me for the trip has turned out to be tougher than expected. Is it $ or time? Or is it really just me? Hmmmm... Sorry if you can't feel my sincerity, I seemed too pushy, or I had actually annoyed/irritated anyone along the way. It really hurts to hear it so. Ouchie. I hate this feeling. Grrr... If not for the prompting of "Then", I wouldn't have continued the attempt to convince. My tiny lil' brain just find it difficult to process reasons like "I don't feel like it". Not so rational for a Male-Engineer-Brain. Not to mention single word responses. Is this one of nature's mystery that I have to decipher? Perhaps you think I am petty, perhaps you will feel the same if you were in my shoes. Convincing people is really tough, definitely not the thing I do well lah... =(

It's really strange how there can be up and down within a day, a swing of mood from end to end within hours. Suspecting my EQ level is actually quite low to be affected so easily. =p

Anyone care to join for the trip? heh heh...

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

Saturday Afternoon Routine.

I just got back from the Saturday tuition sessions. It has been almost 5 months since I started.I have two classes of primary school children, P4 and P3, taking Maths and Science, and English, respectively. It has become a Saturday routine. A energy-draining activity. It is somehow different from giving volunteering tuition. When you are paid, the responsibility seems greater. And if you ain't doing a good job, someone else is readily available to take up yours. The fact that I really need that money, I have to put in more effort. Some students have left, and some have joined. I'm not sure whether they left cuz they think I ain't good 'nuff for them. But there are some who seem really happy and appreciative to have me around. On my first lesson, I set the ground rules for my classes. I told them my expectations on their behavior. On boy, how naive I was. They are only nine or ten, they don't understand the significance of those rules. After a couple of lessons with ...
