Official Opening of Sales Office of Synergy Dynamics

Today was the official opening of the sales office of Synergy Dyanmics. The located at the west coast recreation centre.

It was nice of them to invite me to the place. Had some nice catch up with Ras, Ray, Kris - Pahang Camp's partner and Wilson - a super old senior in NPCC that I never really talk to in the past.

SD is going to have a campsite in KOTA TINGGI WATERFALL!!!! Has always wanted to go there since my NPCC days... ... maybe one day I shall go there and take a look myself... ...

Anyway, we had a bowling championship today. Boss drew lots and paired us up. I was "paired" up with Wilson. All teams had a male and female but ONLY Rayyan and Kris one is not. KRIS is a guy btw.

Today, my bowling skill was the best ever. Both my game I had score over 100 points. I seldom score more than 100 points when I played in the past. Don't believe you see here:


Wilson is quite a good bowler too... luckily he was my partner. Okay. Soon, it is time to annouce the winner of the 2 games. Guess who won?

It is the Team that has 2 GUYS!!!!! It is so unfair!!!! And my team got 2nd, with a total score of 518 points. =) Wah liew..... we should have given the 1st prize right?

Anyway, I got the BEST FEMALE BOWLER AWARD with 234 points. lolx.

Left early as I was meeting Huihui to buy shoes.... =P

Okay.... gotta go bathe and do my E-LEARNING liao.... ciao....

Respect

"If you want people to respect you, you have first to respect yourself."

"Undo unto others as you would have them undo unto you"

In other words, release all the past, don't hold onto anything but the joy, from everyone, including yourself. Forgive it all and bask in the peacefulness it brings.

*People can talk whatever they want... ... so long I know I am respecting myself and am not doing anything against my conscious.*

Understand a person better using Psychology - Part 3

Welcome to the Part 3 of Understanding a person better using Psychology. In the previous 2 parts, I talked about Id, ego and superego, and Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

Today, I am going to share on Erik Erikson's Psychosocial Development.

There is a total of 8 stages in his Psychosocial Development. He believes that each stage of life is marked by a specific crisis or conflict and that individuals can continue to develop in a normal, healthy manner only if they resolve each crisis successfully.

No.	Crisis	Description
1	Trust vs. Mistrust	Infants learn to trust the environment (if needs are met) or to mistrust it.
2	Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt	Toddlers acquire self-confidence if they learn to regulate their bodies and act independently. If they fail or are labelled as inadequate, they experience shame and doubt.
3	Initiative vs. Guilt	Preschoolers (3-5) acquire new physical and mental skills but must also learn to control their impulses. Unless a good balance is struck, they become either too unruly or too inhibited.
4	Industry vs. Inferiority	Children (6-11) acquire many skills and competencies. If they take pride in these, they acquire high self-esteem. If they compare themselves unfavourably with others, they may develop low self-esteem.
5	Identity vs. Role Confusion	Adolescents must integrate various roles into a consistent self-identity. If they fail to do so, they may experience confusion over who they are.
6	Intimacy vs. Isolation	Young adults must develop the ability to form deep, intimate relationships with others. If they do not, they may become socially or emotionally isolated.
7	Generativity vs. Stagnation	Adults must take an active interest in helping and guiding younger persons. If they do not, they become preoccupied with purely selfish needs.
8	Integrity vs. Despair	In the closing decades of life, individuals ask themselves whether their lives had any meaning. If they can answer yes, they attain a sense of integrity. If they answer no, they experience despair.

Some elaboration extracted From Wikipedia:

Trust and Mistrust

"Erik Erikson proposed that the concept of trust versus mistrust is present throughout an individual's entire life. Therefore if the concept is not addressed, taught and handled properly during infancy (when it is first introduced), the individual may be negatively affected and never fully immerse themselves in the world. For example, a person may hide themselves from the outside world and be unable to form healthy and long-lasting relationships with others, or even themselves. If an individual does not learn to trust themselves, others and the world around them then they may lose the virtue of hope, which is directly linked to this concept. If a person loses their belief in hope they will struggle with overcoming hard times and failures in their lives, and may never fully recover from them. This would prevent them from learning and maturing into a fully-developed person if the concept of trust versus mistrust was improperly learned, understood and used in all aspects of their lives."


Intimacy vs. Isolation
"According to Erik Erikson the young adult stage, Intimacy vs. Isolation, is emphasized around the ages of 19 to 34. At the start of the Intimacy vs. Isolation stage, identity vs. role confusion is coming to an end and it still lingers at the foundation of the stage (Erikson 1950). Young adults are still eager to blend their identities with friends. They want to fit in. When we arrive at stage six we should be prepared for intimacy, a close personal relationship, and isolation, the fact of being alone and separated from others. A balance between intimacy and isolation makes love possible as we must know how to be alone in order to learn to truly love. Having a balanced stage 6 will help tremendously later in the coming stages when unwelcome or unexpected isolation surfaces, for example, the death of a spouse or a loved one (Erikson, Erikson, Kivnick 1986). In stage six, one is ready for commitments, is able to handle real relationships to a certain extent (Erikson 1950), after all, establishing a real relationship takes practice and many of us do not marry our first love. Our ego should also be prepared for rejection, the challenge of break-ups, and isolation, being alone. Erikson believes we are sometimes isolated due to the above. We are afraid of rejection; being turned down, our partners breaking up with us. We are familiar with pain and to some of us rejection is painful, our egos cannot bear the pain. Erikson also argues that "Intimacy has a counterpart: Distantiation: the readiness to isolate and if necessary, to destroy those forces and people whose essence seems dangerous to our own, and whose territory seems to encroach on the extent of one's intimate relations" (1950)."


Thus, using this theory, when we know of someone who is unable to trust people, it could be that the crisis was not resolved when he/she was an infant. And when someone is not able to be intimate with others, could be that his/her role identity was not resolved and he/she has some identity confusion.

Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

There's just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I've found my way home

I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
(add the whos here)

A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I've found you
(and the whos here)

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
(and the whos here)

SO..... is time constant? or is 1 minutes no longer 60s? Weird.... I don't know....

*My date*'s Lunch

It was raining CATS and DOGS when we were about to leave. We found our way through to the Settlers@Holland Village. We took up a 2 hr package with 2 Welcome drinks, 1 snack and 1 tibits bowl.

And there is this drink that looks and sounds interesting to me and I decided to take that. And it is called..... PURPLE DINOSAUR.....

It tasted quite nice..... sweet sweet de..... And *my date* ordered a root bear float.

Of course.... how can I forget to snap some more photos.... ....

Building a Zoo!!!!

My Zoo... there's no koala bears and penguins... sad...

In these 2 hours, we only managed to play 2 games. This Zooloretto and another beans plantations one.....

But if I were to choose to go between Settlers and Pitstop.... I think I will like Pitstop more.....
My previous experience there. I guess the staff at Pitstop are more friendly and the "feel" at the place is more warm and homely.... =)


Now Million dollars question..... who is my date?

Well.....









Did you guess it correctly??










It is none..........

Haha.....











Aiyah......

Guy's Ego

We all knew that the phone was not working well. My dad don't believe what we had said. I don't blamed him for that because he brought back the phone 1-2 years back. Perhaps he felt it was his responsibility if the phone doesn't work. I think I will do the same if I were him. He tried calling the house phone using his handphone many times....

Anyway I was in bed still....... lazing in my bed..... I just let him try.... before I put my foot in. Soon enough, he confirmed it was not working. Mum asked him to fix back the previous phone before this. Then I get up from my bed.... and took a phone out. It was the Philips cord phone that I won in my dinner and dance lucky draw this year. (this reminded me that I still have not use the pizza hut voucher... not sure if the date due has passed....) I passed it to dad and went back to my sleep and just let him fix. He fixed it and he called the house phone. It rang. Mission accomplished. He is happy. And I am happy. Fullstop.


And so conincidently, I check my horoscope for today:

Your leadership role at home or in the community is especially important to you today, but it can also put you in a difficult situation. You know what's best for others, yet they may disagree with your strategy. Using logic won't work as you try to convince anyone that you are right. You may need to let your friends and associates go their own way to discover the truth for themselves.

Sometimes it is better for them to try and fail than we try for them... ....

Have a break....

...... have a kit kat!


But since I don't have a kit-kat, please make do with.....

"If you love someone set him/her free. If he/she comes back to you, you know they're yours. If they don't then it was never meant to be."

Just be there for you... ... whenever you needs it.....

Raining... ...

It has been raining all day long... ... think I am not going to see my fireworks....

Let's us all listen to the Rhythm Of The Falling Rain

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again

The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know
That when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart

Rain please tell me now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another when my hearts somewhere far away

The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart

[Instrumental Interlude]

Rain won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again

Oh, listen to the falling rain
Pitter pater, pitter pater
Oh, oh, oh, listen to the falling rain
Pitter pater, pitter pater

Shadows

I don't know since when, I started to like to look at my own shadow. It seems to be telling me things that I did not see. Don't worry guys.... I'm not having schziophrenia. My shadow did not run out when I am not moving.... neither did it really come to talk to me. =P

Somehow, I just got addicted looking at my own shadows. Fear not, I am not having autism too.

I just like shadows... ....

“Everything that we see is a shadow cast by that which we do not see.”

Something is missing... ...

I saw this sky the other day when I was walking to the neighbourhood for my lunch..... and I can't help but to take a photo of it.
