i feel frustated today. whenever there's yf coporate event, people just dont turn up. i know it's not the numbers that count, but still, i wish i knew why people in general just dun come for coporate events. i wish i knew their reasons behind it. i want to understand people more. i wish i knew all the answers to everything. i know only God can. but i think its an issue that has to be solved.
+++++
today i spoke to ben about ways to understand others. the difficult thing is that you've to apply a completely different set of formula to every individual in order to understand them better. not only do you have to use a different formula, you've to find out what the formula is yourself, which is the hard part. we all want to be understood. but its seldom that people are willing to invest their times in each others lives to get to know each other better. i guess its the singaporean culture that people just do what they think is best for them. they dont realise that friends can be more important than any other worldy things they're chasing after. so this year it is one of my goals to use my time more wisely and invest it in other people's lives. if a person suddenly goes, i dun want to regret not knowing that person more. i would think it would be a failure on my part as a friend.
+++++
i absolutely hate it when people when people make decisions based on their feelings or simply by saying i dunno. i know i'm guilty of it too and i am angry with myself whenever i dont think before answering. because most of the time i think it's just an excuse they use to cover up for other reasons they dont want to say or are just simply too lazy to explain their situation to you. it's just like an easy way out and i dun like it.
+++++
i want to be the best that i can be. but of course not without God! heh :)
