My thoughts for these few days
These few days, I encountered a bad tempered person and keep giving me problems.... Maybe it is just plain bad luck. Maybe the person is not in a good mood. Maybe.... Ok. Stop....!!!
First step: Breath in and stay calm and stay strong.
And Don't worry!
And Why don't we worry? Dont't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.

Stuck...
Had some (lengthy?) discussion with some people earlier.
These people were kind enough to discuss some of the details and they have provided some suggestions as kind of "workaround". However, the suggestions put forward were not really beneficial (to me).
I felt that the discussions were not really unhelpful.
What are my options? How to get things move forward?

Random Thoughts
I can't sleep well these few nights. No, it is not because of the world cup fever.
It could be the warm nights during this June .... But there are lots of stuff that are running in my mind such as:
- increasing expenses (especially bills)
- cpf (especially for housing and retirement)
- new planned hardware to get but not enough money!!!! =(
What to do?
I guess I have to tackle them one by one... And I need my sleep otherwise I will look like a zombie the next day!

Weekend
Settled dad's 100th day.
I gave myself a good rest for this rest of the weekend. First, went to the barber's and have a nice short haircut. After that went to the beach to walk about.
It is raining the whole day on Sunday, so have a good nap.

2011, 2012, 2013.... 2014 and beyond?
2011, 2012, 2013.... 2014 and beyond?
Last year, 2012, the year of the dragon, saw me in the most frustrating state. A lot of things had not gone well. A lot of things planned and turned out to be nothings.... I hoped for things to go better and whatever the outcomes all turned out to be negative. =(
Fast forward to to the first 6 months of 2013. Had exposed to interesting stuff. Some "Jokers" are ignored as they consumed time, money, energy and dampen mood.
There are 6 more months before the 2013 ends. This time, some things got to change.... from worst to best! Lets make things better!

Some random thoughts:
I really wonder what will happen if all of the one-third of the staff go bersek at the same time?
I really wonder what is the pointed hair boss's reaction if he is also rated as "does not meet expectations"?

Doctor says law professor Tey Tsun Hang under exceptional stress
Doctor says law professor Tey Tsun Hang under exceptional stress

The psychiatrist for law professor Tey Tsun Hang, who is accused of corruption, said his patient was under exceptional stress in April last year.
SINGAPORE: The psychiatrist for law professor Tey Tsun Hang, who is accused of corruption, said his patient was under exceptional stress in April last year.
Testifying in court on Wednesday as a defence witness, Dr Tommy Tan said this was why Tey was diagnosed with acute stress disorder.
But prosecutor Andre Jumabhoy pointed out that the duration of Tey's symptoms of acute stress disorder did not comply with international classification of the condition.
Dr Tan agreed but said he felt that the guidelines were interpreted wrongly.
At the start of the trial, the chief District Judge cancelled the warrant of arrest made out to Dr Tan.
The judge said the warrant was no longer necessary since Dr Tan has turned up in court.
On Tuesday, the judge had issued a warrant of arrest for Dr Tan after he failed to turn up in court to give evidence, despite being subpoenaed.
Dr Tan told the court on Wednesday that he was not "subpoenaed properly" as the defence did not serve the letter to him directly.
He added that he only read the letter of subpoena on Monday night.
Senior counsel Peter Low begged to differ, saying the doctor was served the subpoena properly in March, before the second tranche of the trial began.
Tey, 42, faces six counts of corruptly obtaining gifts and sex from his former student Darinne Ko in return for giving her better grades between May and July 2010.

SINGAPORE: The judge presiding over the corruption trial of a law professor on Tuesday issued a warrant of arrest, saying defence witness Dr Tommy Tan is to turn up in court on Wednesday.
Chief District Judge Tan Siong Thye said if Dr Tan fails to show up on Wednesday, he will be arrested to court by the police.
This is the sternest warning yet from the judge, who indicated that the trial be wrapped up on Tuesday.
His warning follows Dr Tan's refusal to testify in court after being subpoenaed.
Previously, the court heard Dr Tan underwent an eye operation and was not fit to testify.
On Tuesday, Senior Counsel Peter Low, who is representing Tey Tsun Hang in the sex-for-grades trial, told the court that Dr Tan is unable to testify in court as he was “busy with clients”.
The judge ordered Mr Low to convey the ramifications to Dr Tan.
Later in the day, the court heard Dr Tan is only able to attend court on Friday.
Four witnesses also gave evidence in court, including assistant registrar Colin Seow.
Tey, 42, faces six counts of corruptly obtaining gifts and sex from his former student, Darinne Ko, in return for giving her better grades between May and July 2010.
If convicted, Tey could be jailed up to five years and fined S$100,000 on each charge.

Sex-for-grades trial resumes after law prof declared fit enough to testify
Sex-for-grades trial resumes after law prof declared fit enough to testify
By Claire Huang
POSTED: 06 May 2013 1:16 PM
UPDATED: 06 May 2013 8:10 PM
SINGAPORE: The corruption trial of law professor Tey Tsun Hang resumed on Monday after a two-week break.
The sex-for-grades trial was adjourned in late April.
Tey's lawyer, Peter Low, had made a request then to the court for his client to seek assessment from a forensic psychiatrist at the Institute of Mental Health (IMH).
The move was for the forensic psychiatrist to determine if Tey is fit to stand trial.
On Monday morning, the court heard that Tey is well enough to testify.
With a thick scarf wrapped around his neck, the former district judge continued to take the stand as he was questioned by prosecutor Andre Jumabhoy.
The morning proceedings moved along slowly as Tey refused to answer Mr Jumabhoy's questions directly, and the prosecutor had to keep repeating himself.
At one point, Mr Jumabhoy said pointedly that Tey should not "play dumb" in court.
This upset Tey, who demanded for the prosecutor to stop the "name-calling" as it was "very insulting".
Towards the later part of the morning, the prosecution brought up IMH's report on Tey's condition.
Tey has repeatedly said that he does not remember why he told the authorities certain items such as an iPad were a gift from his student, when in reality he bought the iPad himself.
Tey's defence was that at that point in time, his memory was affected.
Previously, it was said that Tey suffered from dissociative amnesia.
On Monday, the court heard that the IMH report by Dr Gwee Kenji stated that Tey's severe memory deficiencies were consistent with "individuals with severe brain damage, or organic disorders, chronic and severe psychiatric conditions like schizophrenia".
Mr Jumabhoy pointed out that Tey did not suffer from any of these conditions, which the law professor agreed.
The prosecutor pointed out the only other basis for Tey's memory loss, as stated in the IMH report, is that he is malingering.
Tey rebutted, saying the prosecution is assuming and "making the supposition".
He said: "You are assuming, and you are making the supposition. Your line from beginning to end is, in your own phrase, flare for drama, play-acting, play dumb. For what? To land himself in this condition, suffering for a year, going to gaol?"
Later in the day, six other witnesses from the National University of Singapore's law faculty also testified.
The court heard about the grading system of the university and the role of the Board of Examiners.
The prosecution made the point that when the Board adjusts students' grades, it does not carry out the actual re-marking of the papers.
The court also heard from some professors who taught Darinne Ko - Tey's former student implicated in the case - that she was at worst a "B+" student and was a solid upper class honours graduate.
They described her as "a very bright student", who writes very well.
Tey, 42, is accused of obtaining gratification in the form of gifts and sex from Ms Ko, in return for giving her better grades between May and July 2010.
Just before the end of the day, Chief District Judge Tan Siong Thye signalled to both the prosecution and defence that he wishes the trial to end on Tuesday.
The defence has about seven more witnesses to go.

I thought I would be expecting some good news this week and I waited and waited.....and all I got... was a silent reply. A silent reply means only one thing which I dread and that is simply nothing. Purely nothing. No opportunities. Nothing at all. =(
This is frustrating. Time is running out....
