Quote of the day~


No One can make you feel inferior without your consent.

I came across this quote by pure chance. Been webbing and saw this article.  Everyone who has ever been bullied before should read this. 

Bullying can take many forms, including verbal abuse; threatening, humiliating or offensive behaviour; or work interference.

The following common tactics form part of the workplace bully’s arsenal:

  • Spreads malicious rumours about other people
  • Ridicules or demeans people
  • Excludes people
  • Micromanages people or is an overbearing supervisor
  • Makes unwelcome sexual advances
  • Threatens  people
  • Persistently criticises people
  • Withholds information
  • Removes people’s responsibilities
  • Overloads people with work

Psychologists say the following could trigger bullying behaviour:

  • a feeling of incompetence in handling his or her own job
  • a feeling of having missed out on a promotion
  • a feeling that a highly competent and popular colleague might be a threat to his or her position
  • a personality clash with a colleague
  • domestic personal problems, which make the individual feel insecure and inadequate

A Reminder of why we keep doing what we do..

This SOng is like a wake up call...






The CLIMB

I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head sayin,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they might knock me down but
No I’m not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I’m going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on,
cause

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Somebody's you're going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It’s all about
It’s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Living in Content vs Living Cluelessly

A friend commented that i am always complaining about not meeting expectations fast enough. I do realise that i havent been  savoring my victories much or basking in my glory. In fact, i think i kinda dismiss it like it was a stepping stone which was just part of the expectation. Looking back at my past few entries i think i preetty much turned into a super big sour puss and just very un-contented with alot, nick-picking the impossible, having unreasonably demanding expectations in such short period of time. She says i am possibly being pressured by mum and her expectations for me. All thanks to all the men living with us, slowly but steadily giving us more reason to embrace divorce and singlehood. 




I think never knew stopping to smell the flowers and savoring victories was this difficult!

Powerful nice girl?


I'm always battling this dilemma. Struggling between being a nice person and being someone with authority. I dont like feeling bad after correcting my team members. Neither do i enjoy picking on them. We all just want to do our jobs. When things get too friendly it gets complicated. how do you draw the line where respect, age, authority and friendship lie? 

I feel like a mum.. at work and at home. I should slow down.. worry less. Though it still bugs me that the bosses are not as worried as i am abt where things are going. At this rate it is so difficult for me to convince my mum again. Who has been nagging AGAIN for me to move on to another company. she says my pay... sucks =( .

It doesnt help that all my "friends" decide to either have depression or are emotionally unavailable or just too tired to help. I look at my phone and gosh.. no one person pops up in my mind. Why do i feel like this ever so often? Mum says i need new friends.. i cant disagree.

Dear God, 
Show me the "light"?

That Thing You do...


Hmm.. Snappy!

That Show brings back memories. I cant recall exact details. But i vaguely remember enjoying this show with some guy on the phone. Was sharing our thoughts and how cool the whole song was. I cant remember who it was but it was just snappy.


I forgot how yummy Blues music can be..
