One Minute Singapore (Commuter) Four.

We are continuing the Commuter-Series from long time ago. Thanks to some experiences I had on the bus. Now that I am no longer that tired and start noticing the environment, my urge to complain and blog came back.

Sitting at the back row of the bus, three commuters really irritated me.

Irritant #1: He was playing techno music so loudly on his phone. This DJ-Wannabe boy probably just wanted to share his lousy music with the rest of the world. Imagine loud, high pitched, fast tempo noise? Yes you get the picture...

What I wanted to do?: Snatch his phone and throw it on the ground. If it doesn't break, I will pick it up and throw till it breaks.

Irritant #2: He was enjoying his wonderful Mc-Chicken meal in the bus. Using his wonderful skills, he managed his burger with one hand and chili sauce on the other (he squeezed some sauce onto his burger). I think next time he should also try having steak or chili crab in the bus. If not, a bowl of laksa would be good too.

What I wanted to do?: Grab the chili sauce from him and spread it on his face. Then smear the sauce of his burger on his nose like applying suntan lotion. Maybe I will also pour his cola down his shirt too. The chili maybe too hot for him to handle, need to cool off abit.

Irritant #3: He sat with his right leg raised against the chair in front. I ain't sure if he had swollen testicles or he wanted to stretch his thighs. Maybe he was kicked on his groin before he boarded the bus.

What i wanted to do?: Since I was sitting on the elevated seats of the last row, Ii wanted to just raise my foot and stamp on his head. Maybe a good kick will give him a wake-up call. Not too interested in inflicting anymore injury to his groin.

Luckily I was in control, otherwise I can't imagine what would had happened to myself.

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...

What Do You Think?

What makes a good leader? Some will say a good leader is someone who can bring the best out of his/her people. How do you bring the best out of his/her people? Some will say by giving pointers and guidance.  How do you give pointers and guidance? Some will talk. In fact, most will just talk.  I think a good leader should be someone who walk the talk, not just talk. A good leader gets his/her hands dirty to show his/her people the way. Some may say this is spoon-feeding. I think otherwise. For example, if your staff ask you for guidance on work, most bosses would dispense some wise words, "Do this, look out for this, highlight this...". At the end of the day, the staff will come back to the bosses with the work and bosses will say, "no no, do this, not that". I would think a good leader should draft out the frame on the actual work (may it be slides or documents), then dispense his words of wisdom. The staff will do his/her thinking along that frame and f...
