Emotional Support

Have not been blogging for a long time, cannot find the motivation to come in to blog... hee

Just saw Jeff's blog on emotional support, so decide to discuss it here from my point of view.

Is it only girls who need emotional support??? How about guys??? And what is emotional support??? Maybe someone out there can give me some answer, hee...

Some girls would need more emotional support, some need less. It depends on different characteristic of girls. Maybe more independent girls need less but I think no girls would say that they need none. Emotional support does not necessay comes from boyfriends or girlfriends. It can also be from your family members and friends.

Does emotional support neccessary to be in words, that is verbal or written??? Think of the soup or dinner that your mum cook for you after a day of tiring work. Or your dad waiting for your return downstair at the HDB void deck late at night. Or your siblings listening to your 'lao sao' when you feel down. Your mum, dad or siblings need not say anything but you can feel that they are giving you emotional support right?

I personally thinks that emotional support is a kind of feeling and its the thoughts of another person that counts. As long as he or she has the heart to do something to cheer or encourage you, its already a support. Its just that simple, isn't it?

Learning Process and Determination

Just came back from a swim... Nice weather today, so went for a swim and tan :)

Has been feeling down for these 2 days again but didn't tell anybody about it. It was because I can't figure out why I'm down. maybe due to driving... maybe due to the job-seeking process... maybe due to other things... I don't even know how to start to 'fa lao sao' ha... Luckily went for a swim today to relax relax and found out what I have been missing ever since I have started my University study. I have lost something that I have used to have in my Polytechnic days. I have lost my DETERMINATION.

Although I have completed the 3 yrs course smoothly, most of the time I am not determined enough to learn the concepts thoroughly. Even for projests, I also tend to rely on others to provide me with a solution and tends to give up easily. This is unlike me in the past. Is it because of the tight schedule in University system? Anyway I am going to find this DETERMINATION back...

Today is a weekday but due to my wrong timing, the pool was crowded with groups of students learning swimming. It reminds me of my learning process when I have started to learn swimming in sec 2. Gone through the systematic course, yet still don't know how to swim... Think I am slow learner and I am more of a self learner. In the end, I pick up swimming by practicing myself. This is the same case when I learn cycling too. As for my driving course, it will be the same case too. What I need is more practices and that means MONEY ha...

k lah, thats all for today...

Everybody, JIA YOU!
