Deservedness

The state or quality of being deserved. [web definition]

I will never be able to understand how life was in the 80s as described by Papa Soo.
Or ever shall I know the satisfaction of earning a "four-figure" salary.

But I do know one thing. The value of deservedness.

Meritocracy. People rise and fall based on how hard they work. No pulling strings. No brown nosing. No apple polishing. Just plain hardwork.

Trust and respect.

To be trusted and respected, first and foremost, don't lie. unless with valid reasons.

it's never enough even if I scored As since young
it's never enough even if I'm the only one who managed to complete my music studies
it's never enough even if I'm the only one who got into a public institution for my tertiary studies
it's never enough even if I paid for my own education
it's never enough even if have a career of my own
it's never going to be enough even if I have never screwed up big time in these 23 years
it's never enough even if I am always there a phone call away
it's never going to be enough
and I am sick of this stupid Asian culture.

if I am lucky enough to have my own children I swear my life I would never raise them in such culture.

The new Julie/Julia Project!

I am proud to announce my latest project!
(I need a project badly cos I don't want to shop every weekend with my sister. She can be crazy when it comes to shopping)
 
Julie/Julia 2.0!
 
I have not figured out what kind of dishes I would want to try this time. Something new. More Asian cuisines, I hope!
 
Coming soon!
 
2013!
 
that is if we could survive the apocalypse! HAHA!

Hello!

Bonjour mon amis!

Haven't been blogging(ranting?) for a while. Have been  reading a lot lately. *coughs* not serious materials though. HAHA.

Been diligently reading racy books for the past few days (er, a week?) Fifty shades trilogy by E.L. James. HAHA.

Thank you Mr Wong for your very interesting column. Well I'm kind of a curious on the kind of book that had left this papa in cold sweat. His daughter proudly announced that she purchased Fifty Shades of Grey(first book) and that made him er nervous

So I had to know how racy/erotic this book can be!

Sometimes a parent can be a little too protective(?) I guess.

I've got to see it for myself! HAHA!

In short. Umm. It is erotic. Very.

Lame plot. Very Cinderella. In an erotic way. HAHA.

Rich guy fall for a not-so-rich-girl-next-door.

Rich guy has a dark sexual secret. Girl-next-door kinda changed him.

Blah blah blah.

Then they lived happily ever after.

So in my opinion, it is a racy book. I'd only recommend this to MATURE readers ONLY. Take it as a fun reading. No harm done.

But it's definitely not for kiddies. Go read Harry Potter or something! No pun intended.

Now I'm going to try reading all the books I bought last year. 10 of them. Gosh, why the hell I bought this many! HAHA!
