应该是时候累了。


应该是时候停下。


乐观： 不， 再往前几步就是了！走，走，走！:D


悲观： 天啊！还有十万八千里，怎么到得了!?


现实： 不如叫部车吧？

只在于你如何选择。

Achievement ?

take the test below and see what you score, just answer yes or no to each question.

1. if offered a choice of tasks, would you pick one that is moderately difficult rather than one that is very difficult or easy?
2. do you enjoy tasks more if you compete against others?
3. do you prefer tasks that have clear, definable goals and measurable outcomes?
4. while working on projects, do you like feedback about how well you are performing?
5. would you prefer criticism from a harsh (but competent) evaluator or from one who is friendlier, but less competent?
6. do you prefer tasks where you are personally responsible for the outcome?
7. when working on a difficult task, do you persist when you encounter roadblocks?
8. do you typically receive high performance evaluations (e.g., receiving top honors or special recognition in sports, clubs, and other activities)?

scoring:
give yourself 1 point for each yes you answered to the eight questions. people with higher number of yes answers tend to be high in achievement motivation, in another words, KIASU. (especially for those scoring 7 and 8)




so what's your score? :)

Interesting ?

some facts shared by my psychology lecturer during these few lecture classes, not very sure if they ARE facts, but pretty interesting that i can't resist from sharing with you guys :D

1. babies will die because of not being touched constantly. totally amazed when i heard this :O
2. you are still considered in your YOUNG adulthood even if you're at the age of 45. err, maybe i'm just so lack of general knowledge :P
3. children, from birth to the age 2, believe that anything out of sight does not exist, even their mom who leaves for the toilet, to them, does not exist anymore. 
4. people who nod frequently are more intelligent, said to be stimulating some parts of the brain more. i'm not so convinced with this one though.
5. there's a relationship between your attachment to a parent figure when you're an infant and your love for a romantic partner in your adulthood. not only that, this attachment does describe how you interact with your friends/ children/ family members.
6. our trust level towards the others is determined as early as from birth to approximately 12 months old. (ex: your mom failed to feed you when you're hungry in your infant year causes you to develop mistrust) this actually stays till the day you die. wow! just because your needs are not fulfilled at that age, you'll have difficulty in trusting others for your entire life! 
7. at the age of 18- 35, our main focus in life is intimacy. loneliness will attack if failed in finding an intimate partner. err, swt? seriously? o.O

aren't they interestingly funny? 


 

Regrets ?

the path

has been chosen.

the road

has been taken.

what has been and will be sacrificed along the way, 

countless.

time? effort? relationships? what else?

worthwhile?

only future has the answer.

once asked: "ever gonna be afraid of facing it alone?"

HA HA! no point being afraid after you've made the choice.

in the end, independence 

is the only thing you can rely on,

not anyone else.

well, the scenery along this rough route,

reminisced, 

picturesque, breathtaking, mind raping, disturbing, hideous, unforgettable

appreciate every bits and pieces, like a priceless piece of art.

bitter, unpleasant, sweet, memorable, sour, undeniable

taste every flavor, like sipping from a cup of finely grounded coffee.

not that bad after all.

for being given a chance to be different

and have a diverse perspective.

"every cloud has a silver lining" does stand, no?

or just being overly optimistic?
