Procrastination...

This semester I am really addicted to procrastination, always doing unneccessary or unimportant or not the priority things and really avoiding things that I am supposed to do; last few semesters I was better, managed to use my time well, completed my assignments earlier and had time to proofread, and had a more balanced life -- enough sleep and exercise.

 Procrastination may be fun in the beginning, but it pays off soon... This semester, it's the first time I really experience how hard it is to rush to meet assignments deadline. Really handed in assignments at the last minute!!! Luckily I have friends who have transport, if not, I will surely be late already.

 Finally getting to experience the consequences, I MUST NOT repeat this ever again!!!!

 Hope I revert to my old self! Go go go!!!

And finally enjoy the benefit!!!

DeeJay!!! You, must be more self-disciplined!!!!

林连玉基金 《2013年大专生文化之旅》 之 “茨厂街+苏丹街考察”

来来来！

一起跟随理大的几位学生，展开一段前所未有的 《大专生文化之旅》吧！^.^

10月26日，我们搭了5个小时的巴士，终于于凌晨5点抵达了 KL！首先最重要的是—— 到林连玉基金的办公室继续睡觉！大约早上9点，我们才前往尊孔独中，与来自马大、工大、博大、UTHM等其他大专生会合。

这就是我们每次活动集合的地方。左边是尊孔独中，建筑物是现代型的，11层楼高，而且还有电梯！右边则是尊孔国中。本人很喜欢国中的建筑物，因为带有古色古香气味，勾起以前在学校走廊奔跑的回忆，好怀念哦~~  

非常钦佩尊孔的历史！有兴趣知道的同学们可以浏览：尊孔历史

早上10点，苏丹街和茨厂街的文化之旅开始咯~！我们分成两队，并且有导览员带领我们，向我们介绍吉隆坡的古迹文化~ :)

茨厂街的由来：

原来，“茨厂街” 的名字是原自于一间木茨（木薯粉/Tapioca）厂。。。当时，叶亚来，吉隆坡华人加工业的始祖，在那条路设立了木茨厂，并聘请外国工程师和引进欧洲搅拌器，将木茨加工成粉。“茨厂街” 的名字也就因此而来~~ （可惜最终茨厂因生意失败而关闭了。）

那为何英文名又称 Petaling Street 呢？那是因为茨厂街一代有座山，名为八打灵山（Petaling Hill）。可是因为于1953年，在八打灵山建了精武体育馆后，人人都把这山命名为精武山，慢慢地，大家就忘了精武山的本名——八打灵山。。。:(

1。人镜慈善白话剧社（Yan Keng Benevolent Dramatic Association)

成立于1920年，是吉隆坡历史最悠久的文艺类社团，以研究改良戏剧、音乐、歌咏、艺术及慈善为主。在全盛时期时，会员多达13000人。如今，社团依然存在，但是剩下的会员很多都已上了年纪，而鲜少年轻人对文艺感兴趣。人镜白话剧社本着“以人为镜，可知得失”的名言走过漫长世纪，多年来也为社会贡献了不少。他们注重慈善工作，为社会进行募款和义演，所筹募的善款有几百万令吉！

大家有注意到这座建筑物的特点吗？西方的构造 + 中方的水墨书法招牌 = 中西合併！

2。邝福荣洋服（Kwong Fook Wing Tailor）

跟人镜白话剧社同一个建筑物。别看它小小间，路过都被忽略的样子，它可是帮了很多政治人物量身定做英式风格的洋服哦！现在已经是第三代在经营了。:)

1974年，我国第二任首相，敦阿都拉萨传着邝福荣的洋服，到中国与毛泽东会面，并踏上万里长城。

3。杂货行

建于1932年，是整条苏丹街最漂亮别致的一栋建筑物，也是吉隆坡少数具有建筑艺术价值的店屋之一！目前杂货行已经变成背包客栈，可以看到外国游客坐在阳台，一边享用早餐，一边观察吉隆坡一天忙碌的开始。
导览员告诉我们，客栈不允许大量的游客进去参观，因为以前他们开放时，很多古董被偷了。不过，若想要进去参观，可以尝试问问店员。:)

4。李霖泰菜市场（Lee Lam Thye Market）

原名为道理巷（Truly Lane）或菜巷。它是由建筑物之间的巷子所形成的，一共有4个出口。1990年代，为了纪念当时的人民代议士为维护小贩的权利而做出的贡献，因此把名字改成“李霖泰菜市场”。这个菜市场是目前茨厂街一带唯一的传统市场。

菜市场里面，有4个古老的钟，有人称他们为东南西北钟，或者高钟。虽然那些钟已经不能操作了，但是它们属于历史的一部分，值得留念。

 5。中华戏院
位于中华巷（Madras Lane）。巷子的名就是原自中华戏院而来的。在30或40年代时，这里是一家演大戏的戏院。孙中山也曾在这里的舞台上演讲。过后，建了中华戏院，开始放映电影。以前，会有很多人来看戏，而戏院附近也开了很多小贩的摊子，非常热闹！
可惜的是，中华戏院曾经发生数次的火患，少了又建，建了又烧。慢慢地，繁华热闹的情景也就变得沉寂起来了。如今，如果你去到那里，已经看不见中华戏院。迎面而来的只是一个泊车的空地。。。

6。恩记唱片行

站在中华巷，后面是李霖泰菜市场，前面是停车场（以前是中华戏院的所在地），右边便是恩记唱片行了。若想寻找六、七十年代的歌手唱片，可以来到这里。老板娘虽老了，但是仍然亲自打理公司。老板娘不舍得把店关闭，因为这间店是她的丈夫的一番心血。虽然丈夫已去世多年，可是可以感觉到老板娘对丈夫的思念。所幸的是，这间店还是有顾客，而且他们也做批发的生意，而老板娘也把儿子叫回来替她接管这门生意。（摘自：LaTeaFor2 ）
真希望历史能长久地延续下去，在这科技与工业发展蓬勃的年代，也有空间让历史融入我们的生活里。

1972年5月10日下午1時正，邓丽君来到了恩记唱片行举行签名会，几乎把店挤爆了。

7。旧邮政局

1911年落成，采用Tudor风格，在一楼有走廊，屋子的角落处则切割成斜面式的入口。很特别的是，每当人们看见邮政局升起红旗时，就知道邮件将在不久后抵达。这是因为当邮件抵达巴生港口时，消息便会通过电报（telegram）传到吉隆坡，然后邮政局便升起红旗告诉公众，邮件将要抵达了。当邮件抵达后，红旗便会下降。
有人建议把这间旧邮政局修复，然后变成博物馆，但至今仍没任何动静。。

8。鬼仔巷

鬼仔巷的名称由来，有两种说法：

（1）以前有很多小孩子在那里完，因此把那些小孩称为鬼仔，名称由此而来。
（2）因为那条巷子聚集了很多吸毒鬼等等，因此被称为鬼仔巷。

9。古时候精美的路灯

看到这个精美的路灯吗？它的杆子有凸出来植物花纹，而上面的路灯则是像灯笼那样。这是在英国殖民时期所建造的，而且整个茨厂街一带只剩下4个了。据说最早的是在1905年便存在了。
有种感慨，为何槟城的壁画会让那么多人不惜顶着大太阳也愿意到处去寻觅，而吉隆坡这么特别的4盏路灯却留在偏僻处，没人发觉？或许吉隆坡的文化团体可以像槟城那样，搞类似“寻宝”的活动，让游客能够根据地图把4盏路灯都寻出。

10。Gurdwara Sahib Polis

以前马来亚的警察，很多都是锡克人（Sikh）。这间不是一个警察局，只是一个转站。从外国来到马来亚当警察的锡克人，会在这里集合，然后才被派到不同的地区去服务。

11。积善堂

积善堂是一所老人院，于100多年前，由吉隆坡开拓功臣，叶亚来，所建成。它是让无依无靠的年迈矿工养老的地方。此外，它也是个殡仪馆。去世的无依无靠的老人，尸体将会摆放在积善堂。一些富有的善心人士会捐款，作为这些死者的葬事资金。若死者得到很多捐款，就能拥有华丽一点的丧事处理，否则只能简陋地被埋葬。

1980年时，有个大集团收买了积善堂，欲在该地建造18层楼的酒店。1985年，积善堂正式迁出该地。可是，建酒店的计划迟迟未落实。当时，积善堂还留有一名两层楼的外墙，刻着“积善堂”三个字，无时无刻提醒着人们它的存在。荒废了一段时间后，该地成了吸毒者天堂，也因为吸毒者而引起来数次火灾。在2006年12月，积善堂在隆市政局（DBKL）的喝令下，连外墙也被拆除了，成为一个停车场。从此，这百多年历史的建筑物也正式离开了我们。。。

12。Sri Mahamariamman Temple

建于1873年，是个非常美丽的印度庙宇。五颜六色的雕刻非常吸引人，让人忍不住拿起相机拍照。但是，忘记了到底是不能在里面拍照，还是为了尊重，所以我们没有拍到里面的照片。

这是它的外观。 

 它的雕刻是不是很精致呢？

每年的大宝森节都会有游行，从这里到 Batu Caves 的黑风洞，场面浩大壮观！

13. 乐安酒店

 

1938年 - “乐安茶室”创办。只有两层楼高，业主在楼下经营茶室，楼上则充当住家用。

1955年 - 改建成三层楼，改名为“乐安大旅社”，楼上开始供做旅馆用途。

1971年 - 再次修为四层楼，改名为“乐安酒店”。

 关闭前的乐安

政府为了要建MRT捷运，收购了许多苏丹街一带的店屋。乐安酒店奋斗了两年多，最终于2013年10月1日暂停营业。乐安酒店check out了。。。:'(

 

我们站在已关闭的乐安酒店门外，听着导览员解释。我心里真想乘坐时光机，回到乐安酒店还没关闭的时候，看看它营业时的情景，尝尝它的食物。。。虽然我是土生土长的吉隆坡人，可是却从来没有想要去留意这些吉隆坡所拥有的独特风光。如今它们即将消失了，突然感到很遗憾，为何之前从不惜福。。。

乐安酒店的铁栅栏以及墙壁上，贴满了许多公众的心声：

“Hentikan rampasan tanah adat”

“你的良心去了哪？”

“乐安在心中”

“没有乐安，去哪里买好吃的鸡蛋饼？ ”

“还我乐安”

“乐安加油！乐安长存！”

“土地是人民的，不是政府的！！”

“奸商掠夺土地，政府竟是帮凶！！”

“乐安，永远怀念你，支持你，加油！！”

“All the best to Lok Ann！”

“建立历史需要上百年，摧毁历史只需要一天。支持乐安！！”

 “乐于己利，安得人心？”

“纳吉要埋葬多少马来西亚的历史？！”

乐安也挂了一张布条告诉公众们：“乐安谢谢您在过去75年的惠顾和支持”。

14。 吉隆坡福音堂（KL Gospel Hall）

是在第二次世界大战前由英国宣教士筹建，最早的教堂是由木板构造而成的。第二次世界大战后重建，才有如今的砖造建筑。它是马来亚第一所招收女生的学校，因为当时的宣教士认为，女性也应该拥有教育的机会。

The thing about Mission Statement~~

Mission statements of an organisation... Is it really that effective? Should it be top-down or bottom-up?

Today during English class, we listened to a recording about how to become a good manager. The first thing it said was, "Throw out your mission statement!" Why? Because mission statements are fixed by top management and employees may not feel connected with the company as they are not involved in drafting the mission statements. Besides that, if you analyse the purpose of mission statement skeptically, actually mission statement is for promotional use only! The company set up a mission statement to present itself well in front of bankers, investors, potential employees, clients, etc. Inside the company, it is seldom used.

Well, in my opinion, I do agree that in certain extent, mission statement is "for display" only... But mission statement also plays its part in sometimes. When I am searching for internship, I will look at the company's mission statements to get a glimpse of what the company is about. Even though I know that it may not portray the REAL culture of that company, but at least it will provide a basic introduction about that company.

Besides that, by displaying mission statement to the public, this will help company to attract employees who are in sync with the company's objectives. It can help to pool talents and also reduce employee turnover rate.

Employees in general do not have any concrete perception about a company. It all goes back to the top management, who understands the best about the company and the direction it is heading, to line out the mission statements so that all employees have the same goal to pursue. If management wants to include employee's role in strategic planning of the company, maybe the management can ask for suggestions or feedback from employees after the employees are clear about the mission statement and have been working towards reaching the set goal for quite some time.

But for other things aside from mission statements, maybe bottom-up is more appropriate. For example, the bus issue of USM. USM administration changed the bus route without consulting the students. They are like the hawk's eye, sitting at the top and managing things, but they are not the people using the bus, students are! As predicted, the new bus route received lots of complaints from students. In the end, the admin has to revert back to the old bus route.

11/10 International Day of the Girl Child

Yay! Today is "International Day of the Girl Child" declared by the United Nations!
http://www.un.org/en/events/girlchild/

This year's theme is, "Innovating for Girls’ Education."

There are many activities done, such as the "Techno Girl" programme which teaches skills to African young girls. There are still many countries where the education of girls are not given attention to. Hopefully through these efforts, it will help to raise public's awareness about girls' education rights.

DeeJay hopes to join actively in an NGO 

in the future ~ ~ ~

第一次当华文班老师

有 a 不放过

无 a 找 o e

i u 并列标在后

单个韵母不必说

哈哈，好怀念哦~~！！今天在华文班当老师，超好玩的！^.^ 

为什么一年级背的东西到现在还记得，而现在读着的东西，下个 sem 却忘记了呢？会不会是因为老了，记忆力衰退了？还是时常迟睡，造成精神不好？

I really should use my blog more! I have lots of thoughts that I wish to pour out, and this blog is a very good place, because not many people know about this blog. Besides, the space is larger than my diary book, can write more things. However... I feel really lazy to log in... X(

********************************************

Next semester is my internship already. I think ALL of my course mates have already secured placing in some companies, but... I HAVEN'T EVEN APPLY!!!! Oh no!!!! I think I should start to panic already... 

DeeJay rolling out ~ ~ ~

# Recent updates #

I should maintain the habit of updating my blog... Actually, a lot of things happened this semester, and all of the events have brought new realisation in my mind. But because of my procrastination to write down in this blog, I have forgotten a lot about the things that I had wanted to write... @.@
Anyway, I will try to write as much as I can remember. I really think keeping a record of what I have gone through in my life is very important, because I can look back into my past in the future, and who knows, I might learn a thing or two from the past me. :) Besides, writing blog trains me to be more spontaneous in converting thoughts into words. This is very useful in exam, in order to save time!

Thus, flashing back ~ ~ ~

***********************************************************

Continuing from the last post, I continue to be a committee of the society, but I do not hold any specific position anymore. I am just a normal AJK. Although I am still allocated some jobs, but I feel more free in this position, as I am not tied down to a specific job that I must do, such as secretarial or treasurer duties. Besides, during the 2nd semester of my third year, I will have internship. If I really feel tired of my position, I can choose to intern at another state, thus escaping from everything; If I still have the passion to help the committees in dividing the jobs, I can choose to intern in Penang. Oopps! I'm so bad! XD

*********************************************************** 

Next is mid-sem break. I went back to Alor Setar, not Kuala Lumpur. I helped my cousin sister to do her accounts for reporting to the IRB. I did everything according to what I have learnt, but not sure whether I have left out anything. But she only owns a small shop, I doubt that the government officer will come to spot check her company. XD

***********************************************************

Then comes a big conflict of mine... I have paid RM150 altogether to AIESEC for the exchange programme, but mummy is concerned about me... She still cannot let go of me to go to another country by myself for about two months. Besides, it is hard to find a project that I really like. I found one after searching for a long time, but the place is in China, where H7N9 is now the big issue. Although China is very big and the location of the project is far from the outbreak cities, but still... I was told, "Prevention is better than cure"... So, I have to let go of this project... Last time, I was really passionate in pursuing my dream of backpack travelling by myself, but now, I am not so sure anymore. As days pass by, my desire disappears bit by bit...
Or is it because I have expressed out my desire? I realised that whenever I have expressed something personal, the opposite will happen. For example, when I said that I am very lucky because mosquitoes will not bite me, it happens instead. (For this, I have done experiments to test it, and it is very true. When I remained silent when my friends complained that there were a lot of mosquitoes, I was not bitten at all.) When I said that I want something very much, later I will realise that my desire has weakened. When I tell my friends what type of person I am, not long later I will realise that I also have another side of the type. Maybe I should keep the things that I want to see continue to happen to myself...

***********************************************************

Following this is the hotly-discussed event of the whole Malaysia -- GE 13! This is the first general election that I started to be aware and concerned about.

I support the Oppositions. I hoped that this time is really "Ini Kalilah". I loved the mascots of the Opposition Parties very much!
This general election let me see and experience many things. This is the first time I went to a political speech. It was at Han Chiang. I knocked my head on a billboard when walking to the venue. @.@ I see how a huge field turned from quite empty to very full. I was laughing even though being squeezed even tighter than sardines in a tin when trying to exit the main entrance. I got a plastic hand fan with the three birds on it. ^.^ I felt for the first time that watching the announcement of results is like watching football, and the feeling is even more tense than waiting for the results of final exam.
This general election has made me realised that not everything on Facebook is trustworthy. We must really find out the source and verify its credibility before sharing it out. Even though it may be a message that is beneficial to the party that you are supporting, but we must all have a skeptical, objective, and independent mind to analyse the matter before believing it. Facebook can be a dangerous "weapon"!!! Messages spread too fast in it, and people do not care to verify whether the message is true before spreading them.
Well, the Opposition did not manage to become the central government, but the percentage of Opposition in the Parliament has definitely increase. This is a good sign as both BN and Oppositions have about equal number of representatives in the Parliament. Hope there will be more beneficial policies in the next five years!

***********************************************************

To end this post, I would like to share the most recent, most enjoyable and happiest event to me (for this sem, I think)! ;D 文化坊+编辑族“传承夜”！^.^

We went to Batu Feringghi for a one-night stay. Actually before this event, I did not have any expectation or any feelings of looking forward towards this event. I was not even involved in the planning of this event... But! The moment when I reached the bus stop to gather, the feelings came!!! The atmosphere was really comfortable! Even though I have not really interact with the group since our first 考察团 at Georgetown, but I instantly felt very comfortable and can talk with them like there is no barrier! After nearly two hours of journey by RapidPenang bus, we reached Bayu Emas apartment. 文化坊 went strolling at the beach while 编辑族 had their 传承。Each group stayed at different units. 文化坊 was at the fifth floor, while 编辑族 was at ninth floor! Then, 文化坊 started to prepare materials for steamboat.
Steamboat was really filling!!! There were some food left. They bought too much 金针菇. I believe that since that time, everyone will have phobia towards 金针菇 for a while. XD Then, we played some games together. There were games such as singing and "Running Man"-type of games. Maybe I was tired, so did not really enjoy the games, or maybe it was because the games were copied from Running Man, making me felt that they were not creative. But I know that I should really appreciate their effort in preparing the games. Moreover, the games are considered new innovations if compared to the usual 理华 games. One game that we enjoyed was the game of having two people biting a chocolate stick from both ends until there was a small piece left in the middle. It was a very awkward moment for the two people at the center. XD
At 12am midnight, 文化坊 小瓜 brought us 中瓜 to the beach. We had a candlelight 分享会。:D It was a warm moment. Everyone did not cry. :) The conclusion that we made from that night was: 文化坊 will not follow other 小组 to stress on the feeling of a family, but we definitely have the feeling of a group of F.R.I.E.N.D.S! :DDD It is at that moment that I really, really realised and felt the difference between 小组 and 执委会。After one year of being in 执委会，when going back to 小组, the feeling is really different. In 执委会，everyone meets to discuss about official matters only. Maybe this is the problem of lack of 联谊。In 12/13 文化坊, I also did not feel the bond with Silicon and Soon Loong. (Ah Ben no need to include, he seldom participate in 文化坊 one...) 联谊 is really an important part of an organisation! But 13/14 文化坊 batch, I can feel their bond! :) When I attend their meeting, I will feel unwilling to leave the meeting early~~ XD Good luck to them!!! :)
Then the next morning, 文化坊 went to 编辑族 unit for breakfast. 编辑族 boys are really great! They were the ones preparing the breakfast. It was a really healthy and 丰富 breakfast! We can make our own style of sandwich with eggs, mayonnaise, cooked beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, and sausages!!
After that is 文化坊 传承 at our own unit and then we started to pack our things. We took 全体照 before leaving, hoping to preserve all the precious and happy memories in the pictures.

That is all from DJ. See ya later~~~

矛盾的我 Conflict conflict。。。 @.@

There is a hot debate happening in my brain now. The title is, "Should I continue to be the committee of ABC Society?" The roles are:
1. Angel - You can say that she is quite noble. Like a candle, she is willing to sacrifice herself to bring light to others. Very responsible. She supports to continue.
2. Devil - She is very bold. Her motto, "Just follow your passion." Lazy to do things that she is not interested in. She doesn't want to continue.

Well, I do not mean to say that Angel is good while Devil is bad.
Angel may be bad, as she is not brave enough to reject other people and follow her own desires; whereas Devil is honest and remains true to herself.
However, sometimes Angel may be right. Living in the society, sometimes our little sacrifices can help a large group of people. The concept of utilitarian: "It is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong."

Below are their conversations:
Angel: I think I should continue to be the committee of ABC Society. As a senior now, I have the responsibility to pass down what I have learnt to the juniors. It would be too selfish if I just keep what I have learnt to myself.

Devil: But don't you feel bothered and frustrated at all? Meetings and other small details, such as problems of all 11 groups, university administration, outside NGOs asking for 联署文告, need to think of ways to raise funds, what to do if a group asks for funds for an activity, etc etc etc......

Angel: Of course will feel frustrated, but in our lives, we also have other small details that make us feel frustrated. We still have to face them even though we dislike them. Besides, if I always think positively and try not to stress too much on those details, I believe I can get over it. 船到桥头自然直嘛~~ I can learn a lot of things too if I continue to be committee.

Devil: Yeah, maybe you can learn a lot of things, but do you see that you are neglecting your studies? Now that your interest in accounting is declining, if this situation persists, one day you may start to hate accounting! I do agree that learning leadership, cooperation, and other skills to be street smart is important, but you also cannot neglect your studies!

Angel: Aiyah, some days when I was free, I did not even revise or do my homework! I was just wasting time watching movies or dramas, or reading story books. But when I am busy with Society's activities, my time will be used for more beneficial things.

Devil: Reading story books is one of your hobbies, and it's good. If you join the committee, you may have less time to read books that you like. Besides, you can really learn a lot and mature through reading books, not necessarily must take part in activities.

Angel: But through participating in activities, I have the chance to develop my interest in other areas, such as doing crafts. I can design things and this can help to develop my right brain (creativity part).

Devil: But being too active is not good for your health! Everyday late to sleep and has to wake up early for class, will feel tired and sleep during class... Assignments also dragged for so long already still haven't start. If during the first year, when you are not so active in activities, your time is very systematic, and all the assignments were progressing smoothly.

Angel: But you also cannot guarantee that if I do not join activities now, I will do my assignments on time. During first year, my time was more systematically-arranged, this is because that time, I was using my old laptop. It often hangs, so I have to finish important things first before seeking for entertainment. Now, this new laptop, I can do a lot of things at one time, of course my attention will be dispersed. But I myself also are to be blamed. I am lack of self-discipline.

Devil: How about your friends? You feel sad because 2 of them, whom you were used to hang around with, are now drifting apart from you. You don't have common topics to talk with them anymore... You feel that they are trying to get away from you. (Even though this may only be your own one-sided feeling.)

Angel: Yeah... But I have also made a lot of new friends through activities. Maybe these new friends are the ones who will accompany me for the rest of my journey... Maybe it is time for the 2 old friends to depart from the train of my life... Besides, there is one friend who still sticks with me even though she knows about my busy life in this Society. I have to really thank her and appreciate her. Maybe by going down this road, I can really get to know friends who are true to me, who will support me, who will not judge me through stereotyping. Those friends who left, maybe they are not destined to be...

Devil: Then, if you decide to continue to be committee, what post do you plan to take? President? Or just normal Exco? Remember that you have internship in the second semester of next year!

Angel: Yeah. I would most probably want to just be a normal Exco. However, if no one wants to be the President, how? Some seniors were trying to persuade me to be the President, saying that I have the ability. But I know myself the best. I certainly am not the material of a President. I have no long-term vision for the Society, and sometimes my stand is not firm enough, will be easily influence by others. Besides, I am not outspoken and bold enough, and I have no charisma as a leader which can lead all the members to follow me.

Devil: Being the committee is like 自讨苦吃。No one who is member appreciates what the central committee is doing. All they know is to critic.

Angel: Hmm... It's okay too. Let them critic. As long as you know that everyone will make mistakes. Actually, ABC Society is really a unique society. Although its members may critic a lot, but on the other hand, they are also very accepting. It is really a free space for everyone to make mistakes. I thinks it is the only Society which I know that is so different yet able to continue as a body. All the 11 groups, imagine how diverse this society is! People from different backgrounds and have different principles. Yet, this Society is so open. Everyone has the freedom to comment on anything and share their thoughts and passion.
I have seen a person whom everyone said that they hate her, but they still support her and help each other when planning an activity. I have seen a person who talks really soft (even when he shouts, his voice is still softer than our usual voice volume!) and slow, but he has his own thoughts that he is eager to share with everyone. ABC Society provides the platform for him! He even gets to be a speaker for many talks! I really do think that ABC Society is a great platform where it does not discriminate and it gives us - university students a platform where we can make mistakes as much as we want.
Besides, one senior said, maybe having its members hating the central committee, this is also one of the unique characteristics of this Society.


*Sigh* There will be no end to this debate...

DeeJay。。。 rolling out。。。

超准的星座分析！！！

Did an analysis of my horoscope through Facebook apps. When I read the analysis, felt like I was being looked through totally... Although there are some statements which I don't wish to admit, but they are the truths...

【给 DeeJay 的一封信】

你有大地的特質，承擔一切，喜歡保護弱小，
擅長照顧別人。
簡直到了犧牲奉獻的地步。尤其對於情人的要求，
會放在第一位。甚至不等對方開口，都能察覺對方心意事先為對方準備好。
你的心很軟，很敏感。會因為悲劇的情節或他人的不幸而流淚。

（超准的！看到别人无助时，我总想要去帮忙。我也认识一个金牛座的朋友，也是特别保护和照顾别人的。她看到朋友被欺负，一定会拔刀相助！
我的心确实是很软，很容易被别人说服。。。就算不是我喜欢做的东西，也很容易“被骗”去做。。。看戏时真的会哭。。。
会把别人放在第一位，但至于不等对方开口也能察觉对方的心意，就得加强了。我对别人的心事还没那么敏感。可是我那位金牛座的朋友就真的很厉害！她看你的表情和动作就可以猜到你在想什么了！）

你：
特悶騷，特害羞，特膽小，沒安全感，佔有欲強，
控制欲強，容易胡思亂想，多疑，極敏感，嫉妒心強，
容易吃醋，忽冷忽熱，忽遠忽近，愛顧影自憐，
雙重性格，嚴重精神分裂，特大號神經病。

（占有欲强 - 还蛮强的。。。买东西时，第一次选到的，我就会对它很loyal的，总觉得它比其他柜子上同样的产品更特别，因为是我第一次选到的，算是缘分。就算有小缺陷，都不舍得换另外一个。
容易胡思乱想 - 是真的。。。如果你进入我的脑海里，你可以看到我平时的想象力是多么的random！一下子想这个，隔不久又想另外一个根本不想干的事情！
妒嫉心强，容易吃醋 - 是有点啦~~ XP 不过已经改了很多！以前更严重！！
忽冷忽热，忽远忽近 - 这要看人。对情投意合的，一见到面，热情到吓到对方！XD 可是若不熟，或直觉中有点排斥的人，就会这样。
双重性格，严重精神分裂，特大号神经病 - 这。。。哈哈！只有跟我超级熟，和我原意向他展现我那疯狂的那一面的人才知道了~~ ;p）

你的愛情，講究一步一個腳印，
而不是敗絮其中的徒有外表。
你一旦愛上了，就一頭扎進去。
你會從細節入口，
一寸寸的呵護這份緣妙不可言的愛情。
你對待愛情的這股認真勁兒，即使沒有甜言蜜語，
卻實實在在做著牽手到永遠的努力，
你給予的愛情你傷不起。

（虽然没谈过恋爱，但感觉真的是会这样，因为我喜欢按部就班地，慢慢了解对方。跟朋友也是这样。:) 而且我对付诸感情的东西都很忠诚的。。。就如我的soft toys，被单，钱包，手机，电脑等等所有其他我拥有的东西。）

你脾氣很倔，如果有天真的把你惹怒了，
絕對敢和你同歸於盡。讓你消氣很容易，
不管是你男還是你女，也不管對異性或者同性，
只要你撒撒嬌說兩句軟話，包准你不會再有脾氣。
但如果是欺騙你，那你要做好被傷心的準備吧!
你的世界對欺騙者可是很無情的哦。
（脾气真的是很倔。。。别人越说不应该做，我偏要去做。。。
但真的没那么容易生气啦！让我消气也是超级容易的！有时候，时间的洗涤也能让我消气了。:)
至于欺骗呢。。。就算被骗，我也可能到最后也没察觉到，因为实在是太不懂得分析人了。。。）

不善改變，你喜歡的就一直喜歡；
你不喜歡的就永遠都不會喜歡。

（对！）

你可以為朋友兩肋插刀，可以做任何事。
（是的！总觉得义气很重要！！！就算自己已忙得自身难保了，还是把别人排第一，自己的事再挤一挤时间，就可以了。也是这样的我，所以经常被妈妈骂。。。@.@ ）

但你討厭被別人利用，所以如果你想與你交朋友就不要利用你。
如果你知道了，雖然嘴上不說但是心裡會開始慢慢討厭你。

（通过这个分析我才知道，为什么我对某人有排斥。。。虽然我们经常在一起，但总觉得不能把自己的心打开，与她谈任何事情。。。反而跟她身旁的人，虽然相处的时间不比她多，却能很开心地交谈。。。原来是这个原因。。。）

你生性渴望理解，卻不奢求理解安於孤獨。
你的優勢在於，對於別有用心的人能夠一眼看穿，
並完全做到視若無睹。
（我是好奇宝宝，看到神奇的事，都要去看个究竟。XD 但不喜欢gossip 别人。XD 自己独处也可以很开心。就算参加某些活动，只有自己一个，其他人都有伴，谈得不亦乐乎，我也能很安乐地在一旁。:)
别有用心的人，是不能够一眼看穿。可是，我的直觉总是很准的。。。初次遇到某人，直觉能告诉我能否与他亲近。而通常潜意识里排斥的人，经过时间观察，也证实他别有用心。。。可能是因为自己思想很直接，没有别有用心[对不起，这句有点自恋 XD]，所以对那种人就自然有排斥，而对同类的人，能直接感觉出来。 ）

也許當自鳴得意時你想的正是不和這頭牲口一般見識！
看你就是這樣的心態清高地忍，
讓憂鬱地承受卻酷得乾脆利落，只要不觸動你的底線一切都好。
（对啊！我对那人是一忍再忍啊。。。虽然她说话不怎么客气，也很伤害人，但这是她平时说话的方式，可能她只是随口说出，并没真正有那想法。。。很想提醒她很久了，但还没做到。不知道其他人是不是跟我有同样的想法。。。有时候觉得她说话挺伤人的，还在很多人面前亏损某人。。。有时是笑话，但她的笑话感觉不像幽默那种。。。知道她不是故意的，但如果一个人每次都这样，表示她本人的内心想法就真的已经是这样了，只是她自己没察觉。。。）

一向以守財奴出名的你，
面對自己重視的人卻可以非常的大方。
對你而言，一些不必要的花費是可以省下來的。
(Hee...守财奴形容得很贴切。XD 哈哈！但下一句是真的！吝色，只是对于我自己； 而对重视的人，是很大方的。:) )

但若遇到重要時刻，你可是花大錢絕不手軟，
對情人更是大方。
對你來說花多少錢在情人身上，
是表現愛意的最好方式。只要覺得有價值，
你是不會捨不得的。
（看到自己超超超喜欢的东西，不管多少钱也会狠心买下。必须注意：一定要是超超超喜欢的才会这样哦！
至于情人嘛。。还不知道！XP 但我不会以多少钱来衡量爱情的深度。该花的我会花。例如：特别日子时，会花钱准备一些礼物。我喜欢手工，所以可能会花钱买材料，手工的材料都很贵耶！可是如果要我买贵重又没什么意义的东西来送，我是不会那样做的。）

以上是DeeJay的个人分析。
原来我是这种人。。。XD

Introvert ------> Extravert ??

I have really changed A LOT...

When I was in secondary school or matriculation or the first year in USM, although I enjoyed interacting with my friends, but most of the time, I enjoyed being alone. I was motivated by my inner strength every time I faced any hardships.

But in the second year of uni life, I feel like I have become different. When the hardships become unbearable, I find myself wanting to find someone to spill them out. Or even though I don't tell somebody about my problems, being around with people when I am down is enough to change my mood. Is it because I have made more friends? Or is it because the hardships that I've faced have come to a point that I can't bear them alone? Or is it because I have become more dependent on other people? Or is it because my socialising skills are improving and I like to talk to people more?

Quoted from Wikipedia:

• Extraverts are action oriented, while introverts are thought oriented.
• Extraverts seek breadth of knowledge and influence, while introverts seek depth of knowledge and influence.
• Extraverts often prefer more frequent interaction, while introverts prefer more substantial interaction.
• Extraverts recharge and get their energy from spending time with people, while introverts recharge and get their energy from spending time alone.

I think that lately I have become an extravert...

People do change after all。。。
