Its rather strange you know. I thought it is always a known fact that whenever a guy asked a girl out whether as friends or not, the guy would do the gentleman thing. These days, its not. First date, walk into food court and say, " Maybe you want to get your own food first?" I was like, shocked. Next, he said, " Lets go and get some dessert". I said, " Sure, no problem" and he led me to a dessert place. We placed the order and he took the receipt and place it in front of me peering down to look at the price i should pay for my OWN dessert which is, " $1.90" I handed out the money and he pocketed it. That was shocker number 2. This thing happened quite sometime ago but till this day it is still fresh in my memory. Whatever happened to the well-mannered gentleman behaviour nowadays?
Is it the age thing, upbringing or our country's culture? The foreign man i dated were never ever like that. They offer to hold your things, they make every effort to make a date a success and that is where they aced. ( i am not even talking about caucasians here) And guess what, they even follow you go shopping with never a bored look as they would be busy trying on the new clothes too! Most importantly, they never make you their servant. THEY DONT SIT THERE AND WAIT FOR YOU TO BUY THEM FOOD.
Excuse me, i am a precious daughter in my household and you make me buy food for you? Are you ok?? Dont tell me i am pampered and all that, every woman deserve to be treated better.
That reminds me. I remembered there was this guy i met, i went to buy fries for myself as he didn't want any (i didn have lunch while he had his without me!) After buying, i started eating on my way and he was beside me, so kindly, i offered him a piece. Then he started taking more and more of my fries so naturally i made him hold it (altho' feeling frustrated due to my hunger). The next thing i know, he said, " Well, let me have the rest of the fries ok?" WHAT CAN I SAY????? Well, i think i said " Whatever!" That was the last i saw of him as he will never make it to my PEOPLE TO MEET list.
To the guys who happen to read this, " If you have tasted chilly, you know how it is" Please, respect all woman. If not, in my books, you are never civilized. Please do not knock on my door. Thank you for your cooperation. I rather have no date than date rubbish.

Success & Goals
I believe everyone wants to taste success. For a person who does not have success would not have motivation. As i always say to people, if they do not have motivation, why bother to wake up in the morning? Why bother to wake up, brush teeth, eat? If there is no motivations and goal in life, we are just like living corpse!
Mostly our goals are driven by our desires, ambition and aspirations. As for me, i wake up every morning with a set of agendas written on my mind to fulfil everyday. These are the set of things i want to accomplished before going to bed.
There are long term goals and short term goals. But right now, i only need to focus on the task at hands as i past everyday being busy with my school work. Well, i find that being able to manage time and plan your workload helps ALOT. But then, thanks to my school workload, i did not have as much time to do my weekly shopping. My weekly shopping is the 'reward' i give myself after a hard week's work. I believe in full pampering myself and indulging myself in order to boost my performance.
Well, i hope everyone has their goals written down somewhere or always in their mind. I am not telling you all what my goals are but i am working towards it.
"DO NOT SELL YOURSELF CHEAPLY-You are worth exactly what you say you are worth."
