hmm jus realised the last time i posted sth abt my life was 2 weeks ago. haha cant exactly remember everything tat happened.

lessons as usual. wif s47 =)
oh did a pretty cool physics prac which we got to play wif LED lights. and some of us tried to make heart shape haha it was quite nice. had one of the pictures as my phone wallpaper now.
musicfest. was doin spotlight for the very first rehearsal. then switched to stage from the 2nd rehearsal onwards. quite fun lar. but thr were so many things to settle. really quite a headache. even though we had 4 ppl on stage. still quite nt enuf haha.
argh cant believe tat actually marks the end of my pa life in vjc. from now on, no more duty, it jus feel so weird. the stage, control rooms dont belong to us anymore. it's actually cool to be doing PA. really. u dont get much chance to be at backstage and realising how a concert,performance,talk and everything is being run. it's totally different, and u learn how to deal wif diff situations, and weird demands. and of course how to deal wif screw ups and covering them. and the adrenalin rush jus before the start of every actual event, it's jus so great. everything jus falls in nicely. from the mess in the very 1st rehearsal to the smooth flow in the actual thing. ahh and the sense of achievement after every successful event. and of course, the debriefings at PT. i will definitely miss all these moments. thank you everyone in the 24th PA crew, it has been really fun and enriching working wif all of u. all the nonsense we had over the kens, all the jokes, and of course all our hard work. you guys rock. i would say everyone outside the crew dunno how we actually work. but i think i'm really fortunate to be able to work wif all of u. it's cool yo! although we tend to screw up quite frequently, haha.

溫馨小故事
一朵玫瑰花
有位紳士在花店門口停了車，他打算向花店訂一束花，請他們送去給遠在故鄉的母親。
紳士正要走進店門時，發現有個小女孩坐在路上哭，紳士走到小女孩面前問她說：「孩子，為什麼坐在這裡哭？」
「我想買一朵玫瑰花送給媽媽，可是我的錢不夠。」
孩子說。紳士聽了感到心疼。
「這樣啊……」於是紳士牽著小女孩的手走進花店，先訂了要送給母親的花束，然後給小女孩買了一朵玫瑰花。
走出花店時紳士向小女孩提議，要開車送她回家
「真的要送我回家嗎？」
「當然啊！」
「那你送我去媽媽那裡好了。可是叔叔，我媽媽住的地方，離這裡很遠。」
「早知道就不載妳了。」紳士開玩笑地說。
紳士照小女孩說的一直開了過去，沒想到走出市區大馬路之後，隨著蜿蜒山路前行，竟然來到了墓園。
小女孩把花放在一座新墳旁邊，她為了給一個月前剛過世的母親，獻上一朵玫瑰花，而走了一大段遠路。
紳士將小女孩送回家中，然後再度折返花店。他取消了要寄給母親的花束，而改買了一大束鮮花，直奔離這裡有五小時車程的母親家中，他要親自將花獻給媽媽。
一朵玫瑰花：
為逝者舉行盛大喪禮，
不如在他在世時善盡孝心。

沒有上鎖的門
鄉下小村莊的偏僻小屋裡住著一對母女，母親深怕遭竊總是一到晚上便在門把上連鎖三道鎖；
女兒則厭惡了像風景畫般枯燥而一成不變的鄉村生活，她嚮往都市，想去看看自己透過收音機所想像的那個華麗世界。
某天清晨，女兒為了追求那虛幻的夢離開了母親身邊。
她趁母親睡覺時偷偷離家出走了。
「媽，妳就當作沒我這個女兒吧。」
可惜這世界不如她想像的美麗動人，她在不知不覺中，走向墮落之途，深陷無法自拔的泥淖中，這時她才領悟到自己的過錯。
「媽！」
經過十年後，已經長大成人的女兒拖著受傷的心與狼狽的身軀，回到了故鄉。
她回到家時已是深夜，微弱的燈光透過門縫滲透出來。
她輕輕敲了敲門，卻突然有種不祥的預感。
女兒扭開門把時嚇了一跳。
「好奇怪，母親之前從來不曾忘記把門鎖上的。」
母親瘦弱的身軀蜷曲在冰冷的地板，以令人心疼的模樣睡著了。
「媽……媽……」
聽到女兒的哭泣聲，母親睜開了眼睛，一語不發地摟住女兒疲憊的肩膀。在母親懷裡哭了很久之後，女兒突然好奇問道：「媽，今天妳怎麼沒有鎖門，有人闖進來怎麼辦？」
母親回答說：「不只是今天而已，我怕妳晚上突然回來進不了家門，所以十年來門從沒鎖過。」
母親十年如一日，等待著女兒回來，女兒房間裡的擺設一如當年。
這天晚上，母女回復到十年前的樣子，緊緊鎖上房門睡著了。
沒有上鎖的門：
家人的愛是希望的搖籃，
感謝家的溫暖給予不斷成長的動力。

便當裡的頭髮
在那個貧困的年代裡，很多同學往往連帶個像樣的便當到學校上課的能力都沒有，我鄰座的同學就是如此。
他的飯菜永遠是黑黑的豆豉，我的便當卻經常裝著火腿和荷包蛋，兩者有著天壤之別。
而且這個同學，每次都會先從便當裡撿出頭髮之後，再若無其事地吃他的便當。
這個令人渾身不舒服的發現一直持續著。
「可見他媽媽有多邋遢，竟然每天飯裡都有頭髮。」
同學們私底下議論著。
為了顧及同學自尊，又不能表現出來，總覺得好骯髒，因此對這同學的印象，也開始大打折扣。
有一天學校放學之後，那同學叫住了我：「如果沒什麼事就去我家玩吧。」雖然心中不太願意，不過自從同班以來，他第一次開口邀請我到家裡玩，所以我不好意思拒絕他。
隨朋友來到了位於漢城最陡峭地形的某個貧民村。
「媽，我帶朋友來了。」
聽到同學興奮的聲音之後，房門打開了。
他年邁的母親出現在門口。
「我兒子的朋友來啦，讓我看看。」
但是走出房門的同學母親，只是用手摸著房門外的樑柱。
原來她是雙眼失明的盲人。
我感覺到一陣鼻酸，一句話都說不出來。
同學的便當菜雖然每天如常都是豆豉，卻是眼睛看不到的母親，小心翼翼幫他裝的便當，那不只是一頓午餐，更是母親滿滿的愛心，甚至連摻雜在裡面的頭髮，也一樣是母親的愛。
便當裡的頭髮：
先入為主的觀念往往影響人一生的格局，
多觀察、多探討會有更多意外的發現。

種花的郵差
有個小村莊裡有位中年郵差，他從剛滿二十歲起便開始每天往返 五十公里的路程，日復一日將憂歡悲喜的故事，送到居民的家中。
就這樣二十年一晃而過，人事物幾番變遷，唯獨從郵局到村莊的這條道路，從過去到現在，始終沒有一枝半葉，觸目所及，唯有飛揚的塵土罷了。
「這樣荒涼的路還要走多久?」
他一想到必須在這無花無樹充滿塵土的路上，踩著腳踏車度過他的人生時，心中總是有些遺憾。
有一天當他送完信，心事重重準備回去時，剛好經過了一家花店。
「對了，就是這個！」
他走進花店，買了一把野花的種籽，並且從第二天開始，帶著這些種籽撒在往來的路上。
就這樣，經過一天，兩天，一個月，兩個月……，他始終持續散播著野花種籽。
沒多久，那條已經來回走了二十年的荒涼道路，竟開起了許多紅、黃各色的小花；夏天開夏天的花，秋天開秋天的花，四季盛開，永不停歇。
種籽和花香對村莊裡的人來說，比郵差一輩子送達的任何一封郵件，更令他們開心。
在不是充滿塵土而是充滿花瓣的道路上吹著口哨，踩著腳踏車的郵差，不再是孤獨的郵差，也不再是愁苦的郵差了。
種花的郵差：
人生如白駒過隙，時光飛逝，
何妨留下善行，提供後人乘涼。

第一百個客人
中午尖峰時間過去了，原本擁擠的小吃店，客人都已散去，老闆正要喘口氣翻閱報紙的時候，有人走了進來。那是一位老奶奶和一個小男孩。
「牛肉湯飯一碗要多少錢呢？」
奶奶坐下來拿出錢袋數了數錢，叫了一碗湯飯，熱氣騰騰的湯飯。
奶奶將碗推向孫子面前，小男孩吞了吞口水望著奶奶說：
「奶奶，您真的吃過中飯了嗎？」
「當然了。」
奶奶含著一塊蘿蔔泡菜慢慢咀嚼。
一晃眼功夫，小男孩就把一碗飯吃個精光。
老闆看到這幅景象，走到兩個人面前說：
「老太太，恭喜您，您今天運氣真好，是我們的第一百個客人，所以免費。」
之後過了一個多月的某一天，小男孩蹲在小吃店對面像在數著什麼東西，使得無意間望向窗外的老闆嚇了一大跳
原來小男孩每看到一個客人走進店裡，就把小石子放進他畫的圈圈裡，但是中餐時間都快過去了，小石子卻連五十個都不到。
心急如焚的老闆打電話給所有的老顧客：
「很忙嗎？沒什麼事，我要你來吃碗湯飯，今天我請客。」
像這樣打電話給很多人之後，客人開始一個接一個到來。
「八十一，八十二，八十三……」小男孩數得越來越快了。
終於當第九十九個小石子被放進圈圈的那一刻，小男孩匆忙拉著奶奶的手進了小吃店。
「奶奶，這一次換我請客了。」小男孩有些得意地說。
真正成為第一百個客人的奶奶，讓孫子招待了一碗熱騰騰的牛肉湯飯。而小男孩就像之前奶奶一樣，含了塊蘿蔔泡菜在口中咀嚼著。
「也送一碗給那男孩吧。」老闆娘不忍心地說。
「那小男孩現在正在學習不吃東西也會飽的道理哩！」老闆回答。
呼嚕……吃得津津有味的奶奶問小孫子：「要不要留一些給你？」
沒想到小男孩卻拍拍他的小肚子，對奶奶說：
「不用了，我很飽，奶奶您看……。」
第一百個客人：
一念善心助長一棵幼苗，
棵棵幼苗可以成林，人人有愛、社會有情。

世上最美味的泡麵
他是個單親爸爸，獨自撫養一個七歲的小男孩。
每當孩子和朋友玩耍受傷回來，他對過世妻子留下的缺憾，便感受尤深，心底不免傳來陣陣悲涼的低鳴。
這是他留下孩子出差當天發生的事。
因為要趕火車，沒時間陪孩子吃早餐，他便匆匆離開了家門。
一路上擔心著孩子有沒有吃飯，會不會哭，心老是放不下。
即使抵達了出差地點，也不時打電話回家。
可孩子總是很懂事地要他不要擔心。
然而因為心裡牽掛不安，便草草處理完事情，踏上歸途。
回到家時孩子已經熟睡了，他這才鬆了一口氣。
旅途上的疲憊，讓他全身無力。
正準備就寢時，突然大吃一驚：棉被下面，竟然有一碗打翻了的泡麵！
「這孩子！」他在盛怒之下，朝熟睡中的兒子的屁股，一陣狠打。
「為什麼這麼不乖，惹爸爸生氣？你這樣調皮，把棉被弄髒要給誰洗？」
這是妻子過世之後，他第一次體罰孩子。
「我沒有……」
孩子抽抽咽咽地辯解著：
「我沒有調皮，這……這是給爸爸吃的晚餐。」
原來孩子為了配合爸爸回家的時間，特地泡了兩碗泡麵，一碗自己吃，另一碗給爸爸。
可是因為怕爸爸那碗麵涼掉，所以放進了棉被底下保溫。
爸爸聽了，不發一語地緊緊抱住孩子。
看著碗裡剩下那一半已經泡漲的泡麵，
啊，孩子，這是世上最最美味的泡麵啊！
世上最美味的泡麵：
孩子即使再年幼，
也有他們的尊嚴，
如果父母發現錯怪了孩子，
要勇敢向他們說：「對不起！」

原來小男孩每看到一個客人走進店裡，就把小石子放進他畫的圈圈裡，但是中餐時間都快過去了，小石子卻連五十個都不到。
心急如焚的老闆打電話給所有的老顧客：
「很忙嗎？沒什麼事，我要你來吃碗湯飯，今天我請客。」
像這樣打電話給很多人之後，客人開始一個接一個到來。
「八十一，八十二，八十三……」小男孩數得越來越快了。
終於當第九十九個小石子被放進圈圈的那一刻，小男孩匆忙拉著奶奶的手進了小吃店。
「奶奶，這一次換我請客了。」小男孩有些得意地說。
真正成為第一百個客人的奶奶，讓孫子招待了一碗熱騰騰的牛肉湯飯。而小男孩就像之前奶奶一樣，含了塊蘿蔔泡菜在口中咀嚼著。
「也送一碗給那男孩吧。」老闆娘不忍心地說。
「那小男孩現在正在學習不吃東西也會飽的道理哩！」老闆回答。
呼嚕……吃得津津有味的奶奶問小孫子：「要不要留一些給你？」
沒想到小男孩卻拍拍他的小肚子，對奶奶說：
「不用了，我很飽，奶奶您看……。」
第一百個客人：
一念善心助長一棵幼苗，
棵棵幼苗可以成林，人人有愛、社會有情。

世上最美味的泡麵
他是個單親爸爸，獨自撫養一個七歲的小男孩。
每當孩子和朋友玩耍受傷回來，他對過世妻子留下的缺憾，便感受尤深，心底不免傳來陣陣悲涼的低鳴。
這是他留下孩子出差當天發生的事。
因為要趕火車，沒時間陪孩子吃早餐，他便匆匆離開了家門。
一路上擔心著孩子有沒有吃飯，會不會哭，心老是放不下。
即使抵達了出差地點，也不時打電話回家。
可孩子總是很懂事地要他不要擔心。
然而因為心裡牽掛不安，便草草處理完事情，踏上歸途。
回到家時孩子已經熟睡了，他這才鬆了一口氣。
旅途上的疲憊，讓他全身無力。
正準備就寢時，突然大吃一驚：棉被下面，竟然有一碗打翻了的泡麵！
「這孩子！」他在盛怒之下，朝熟睡中的兒子的屁股，一陣狠打。
「為什麼這麼不乖，惹爸爸生氣？你這樣調皮，把棉被弄髒要給誰洗？」
這是妻子過世之後，他第一次體罰孩子。
「我沒有……」
孩子抽抽咽咽地辯解著：
「我沒有調皮，這……這是給爸爸吃的晚餐。」
原來孩子為了配合爸爸回家的時間，特地泡了兩碗泡麵，一碗自己吃，另一碗給爸爸。
可是因為怕爸爸那碗麵涼掉，所以放進了棉被底下保溫。
爸爸聽了，不發一語地緊緊抱住孩子。
看著碗裡剩下那一半已經泡漲的泡麵，
啊，孩子，這是世上最最美味的泡麵啊！
世上最美味的泡麵：
孩子即使再年幼，
也有他們的尊嚴，
如果父母發現錯怪了孩子，
要勇敢向他們說：「對不起！」

Received this from hui ting, and i think it's rly damn true and funny haha.enjoy
Lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.
When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbour.
Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.
The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'
'It was Bob the next door neighbour,' she replies.
'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'
Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.
Lesson 2:
A priest offered a Nun a lift.
She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.
The priest nearly had an accident.
After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.
The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'
Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.
On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'
Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.
Lesson 3:
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.
They rub it and a Genie comes out.
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'
Puff! She's gone.
'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'
Puff! He's gone.
'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.'
Moral of the story:
Always let your boss have the first say.
Lesson 4
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.
A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
Lesson 5
A turkey was chatting with a bull.
'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'
'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.
Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.
Moral of the story:
Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..
Lesson 6
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.
As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.
The dung was actually thawing him out!
He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Morals of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your
friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep
your mouth shut!
