6th May 2011: Photos from Pre-election Day

GE2011 has been a truly memorable experience for me.
Prior to nomination day, I have been trying to find out
which opposition party and the candidates
who will be involved.
I believe that everything happens for a reason and every decision made
should be a responsible one.
In order to make an informed decision,
one has to know the options, understand the issues
and search for the best possible solution.
Of course I have to make a disclaimer that
there is no guarantee that your decision is the
best or correct choice.
I am happy to have researched before I decided
to volunteer with NSP and I'm grateful for
the friends I have made, knowledge that I have gained and
experience I will not trade anything for.

If you have been reading my previous few blog entries,
I would like to update you that I have emailed to
Mr. Masagoes Zulkifli again this week.
Hopefully he will respond to me within 3 - 4 months?
Thereafter, I will write him another email to remind
him if he has overlooked.
In the meantime, the likelihood of attending
Meet the People Session by Tampines GRC (PAP) is on my cards.
My purpose is to understand what are their plans
for Tampines and the aspects that our 5 MPs are involved in.
Personally, my objective is to be well-informed and as the
role of a concerned citizen, I want to get to know the story from
both sides (PAP, the ruling party & the opposition party).

I do not agree that life is fair and answerable to everyone.
But I believe that everyone should be accountable to
themselves and the people whom they are responsible for.

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Grandfather Lee: YOUR vision, not mine!

Mr Lee (Kuan Yew) is a well-respected figure in my family.  I shall take a picture of the biographies my parents have religiously bought some other day (maybe I should contribute by purchasing Hard Truths just to complete the collection).  Anyone who studied Singapore history would respect him in some way or another.  However, lately grandfather Lee seemed to be revealing his true self and not bothering much about how the current generation thinks about our society. Here is an article from New Nation, an online magazine I read. Former MM Lee Kuan Yew: The Singapore vision is your vision, not my vision. Pam Petite

I believe that a person's life experiences will largely influence how they behave & react in any given situation. I believe that I have become more optimistic nowadays. Thanks to: 1) God, 2) boyfriend & close / good friends, 3) inspirational & motivational books, These 3 things really played a huge role lately; especially this year. Personally, I am into the idea that one should eliminate anything that brings you down. I know that "eliminate" seems like a BIG word, what I'm trying to put across is, don't let anything come between you and your dreams. To being wealthy is genuinely 1 of my desire. It is the thought of being affluent & rich someday soon that keeps me going forward. In my opinion, becoming rich doesn't have to cost you anything. Meaning, you don't have to sacrifice your very precious time with your family members; neglecting what's emotionally of higher importance. I'm a believer that there's a way to strike a balan...
