Well, these past few days after the PLTC Seminar has been hectic for me. There seems to be a never-ending workload to be completed as well as lots of worrying about things not getting done (the way I want it to be). But well, life is filled with uncertainty, you got to learn to cope with it (of coz, it's without the PPF curve and opportunity cost calculation and stuff).
Nothing much has been happening in my life so far, except for working in the kitchen again (I just love to learn how to do things a different way, like cooking). And school is as per normal. I tried drowning (coz I'm Marlin) myself with lots of work and doing work-outs to clear my mind off. However, it seems to always come back again and again. Perhaps, I related my daily life with her too much.
As most of my classmates are eagerly excited about the Industrial Training Programme (ITP), they have seek the course advisor many times to see what jobs are good and high paying. Well, the course advisor did introduced us one, which is related to Citiphone banking. From my understanding, its related to customer-service hot line for customers to call up and enquire about problems or questions. However, the spaces were limited for that particular job. Thus, the course advisor did a mini-test for the applicants to see if they have the qualities to engage in that job.
Thus the calling begins, and of course, when one of our classmates got her call, we would know that our turn is soon to come. Apparently, some of those who were anxious of not getting a spot within that particular limited amount of space, went to look for her when they didn't received her calls. Yeap, they got in eventually, however the problem started to occur. Due to their 'enthu-ness', they forgot or so, to include a friend who was initially the first batch to request for the job. Thus a mini face-off began. I do not know if the problem is solved or is still on-going. But it did taught us some lessons here.
For friend or for money? Which is more important? It's the same as the earlier entry on Self Esteem leading to ... , whereby humans would have to either choose between relationships or achievements or balance them both. Simply, from that particular incident, when it comes to an important matter for us, sometimes, humans will either become selfish or self-less. It depends on the situation and stuff, but maybe, just maybe if humans can just slow down and think of the consequences of their action first, things wouldn't turn ugly after all.
Call me over-reacting or over-sensitive or stupid and childish. However, if those are bad consequences and if they can be avoided, why not? Why go through the trouble of experiencing a few moments of excitement and joy, and experience a broken friendship and trust? Life isn't all about gaining what you want! To gain what you want is simple, as you are working for yourself and your own personal gain. However providing for others, that's a challenge. How many people can actually forgo their own personal gains and pass it on to others? How many people can actually let go of their ego and pride to serve others, willingly?
If there is one thing, that is important to me, that's friendship and relationship. I got to admit that I suck at both, but I treasure them a lot. It's just so happen that I normally keep to myself, which makes people think that I'm easily social-able. It's okay, as long as our friendship stays, I'll be glad.
Money and jobs comes and goes easily. Friendship and trust between each other takes a long time to re-build once it's broken. And if two lovers are able to remain as good or best friends after breaking up, it leads to 2 possibilities. One, which is that they never love each other as lovers at all. Two, one of them is still trying to provide his or her best for the other person.
