Why Cynicism?

Vege_master, harap maaf, rancangan Episod Kedua tergendala sebentar, ya...



Cynical ~ adj.

1. Believing or showing the belief that people are motivated chiefly by base or selfish concerns; skeptical of the motives of others.

2. Selfishly or callously calculating.

3. Negative or pessimistic, as from world-weariness.

4. Expressing jaded or scornful skepticism or negativity.

I ask you, why are we such cynical beings? For the past few days, I've come across a few P.O. Moments. AND the best part (cynical, you think?) is, I have to keep it all under my Hat... theeeennn ahhhh!!!!


*End of Cynicism*

On another note, the Year of the Fire Boar starts from 1.20 pm, 4th Feb 2007 (not 18th Feb - CNY) according to Joey Yap. Generally, according to him, it's a good year. Well, we'll see, won't we? I've taken an interest in one of his studies, Mian Xiang, ie. Face Reading. Since Uncle Lee is a Graphology expert (*in awe*), I want to TRY to learn about Physiognomy. Pretty interesting, doncha think? Because the face never lies...

Oh, if you have a free Monday, try this 366 Birthday Profiles. Interesting... Here's to a Better Week ahead!

  21. Kakakaka!!! That 366 profiles told me:

    At times you may appear pessimistic and so you need to balance your mind with more joy, optimism and inner sunshine. Try to remove some of the cynicism towards your own life processes and by balancing your cautious nature, you will no doubt begin to see better results in your life.

  24. Yesterday, I had dinner at one of my friend's gerai (yup, her hub's gerai) at a food court. The noodles had an overdose of salt. So, I texted her, telling her what happened.

    She asked me what would I had done if it was some other restaurants/gerai. I said if it's some other place, that'll be my last time there.

    She replied saying that I can do the same and that it's okay wan... Cynical, no??

    If she's someone else, I wouldn't have felt P.O.-ed But the fact that she's one of my close friend and yet.....

    After a while, prolly she felt 'guilty' for saying that to me, she sent me another msg, asking me if I had gone home etc and that I could ask to exchange my food if I find it too salty.

    That time, I sudah P.O-ed. So, I said, forget it la.

    And so, that was ONE of the P.O. Mo'...

    Will be back to reply to you laterzzz...

    ReplyDelete
  25. why your friend's response so lansi one? Hmm..caught her at a bad time ah?

    ReplyDelete
  26. wah your kawan so teruk... if you really wanna get even, list out the shop location here... :P

  27. sms can sound quite 'cynical' itself at times even if it doesn't mean to, err.. if you know wut I mean lol.

    cool, cool.. belanja you ais krim nak? :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. ......... ....... ....... agrees with _butt....
    Sometimes, without meaning to, we can send the wrong impression, especially in this day and age of fast-food electronic messaging.. Even in comments, we can so easily say something that could convey the wrong 'feeling'..
    Belanja you a whole bunch of frozen grapes, after _butt's ais krim..

  31. really???the year of the board starts on 4th feb????? WOOHOO~..its my year you know? ^_^

    ReplyDelete
  32. hmmm... mmmm... take that message(s) with a pinch of salt. sometimes people utter (or type) words without really thinking about how the other person would react. and the "real message" behind it gets interpreted wrongly instead.

    s'ok lah, you not P.O. anymore oredi, kan? kan? smile!

  41. To share an experience i had with a close friend of mine.

    This friend of mine had actually asked me for my advice on whether she should stand as a guarantor for her bf(non-local) of 2 months old, who wanted to buy a car.

    So i just advised her in general loh...in very mild words with a touch of caution...obviously, for her own good mah.

    And u know what her sms to me was? hahaha...

    She replied back saying, "So! u think 'urs' is "gold" and 'mine' is "shit" !?!" : O

    After that i always remembered to keep my mouth shut, even if she asked for any other advice.

  46. Dear Ms. A,...
    Thanks for sharing your experience! So, what did you reply to her? U must have been caught off guard, huh?

    In this case, do you think she takes what you said as cynical, or do you think what she said to you was cynical?

    *trying to confuse you*

    Of course we know he's not two months old :P
