He is eyeing on taking Marine Business Management. Looking for company sponsors. He said he is not interested to take engineering masters, No Point. Else he will just take doctorate in Engineering. Wild ambition indeed. Anyway, his mummy is a 'graduate' of 'University of Society' and holds a 'Master in Home Management'. Knows nothing about what you guys and my son are talking here.....

BaZi Profile - The Warrior Warriors are agressive & have non-giving up attitude, like to bring chaotic back to order. They like to fight for the powerless. Like to see everything as danger when negative and becomes a burden to them. They are slower to take action because they like to evaluate everything, very cautious people, also reliable, responsible and dutiful. Warrior does not trust people easily; first doubt you before they trust you, until you are proven trustworthy. Can be quite impulsive though...anything can ignite Me vs You kind of argument. However, once they are committed, they stick to 101% commitment! Path of least resistance to success: Warriors do best in organising resources, see things work through, like executing strategy & implement it in the long run. Hence, warrior should be the CEO, MD or GM of company, offering your service to run the company, as you can re-energise the company.

The brand for the Rain Shower is ONIMI ITALIA, and I paid $400 for it. Retail price stated in the catalogue is over $600+. My ID brought me to Asia Excel at Balestier Road where the sales lady Roslyn gives good discount to his customer.

You write like a Professor lor.... Too many ambitions become a lost child lor....there is always a better choice as he thinks. That famous shipyard is known for generous VB payout.....both giant shipyards paid good bonus. But he has to work long hours, and half day on Saturday as Production Engineer. That's why I hasten him to sign with that firm who offered him as Architect, the design core team members. I told him engineers position already flooded the street everywhere! Not easy to get vacancies for naval architect which is what he is good at (he is a mathematician, won many accolates and prizes during his secondary school days, locally and overseas.)

The toilet bowl, brand Lucia, an Italian brand. So far, seems alright as NO poos left behind after flushing, unlike the old toilet bowl supplied by HDB contractor where poo stain on the side wall. Most forumers took the picture of toilet bowl with seat lifted up...but I prefer to put down the lid. So far no flies come near to this light in the toilet - may be because of the wooden slabs which emit a kind of scent which can deter them from entering? The 2 doors for the toilet...taken inside the toilet

Yes, the Merlion is supposed to be the guardian of Singapore River, as in the olden days, the river was choppy and posed risks for the traders. So, it was told that the senior Lee seek someone to craft the Merlion to protect the river mouth. It was shifted from its old location because of the bridge constructed over there. Then, it was moved to its current site but still obstructed by another bridge. My sifu had suggested to someone the Merlion should be position farther away near the MBS. Red is Fire...looks like the lion is going to be cook for meal for tourists.

We asked our FSM and he explained (his opinion) that most probably the 'eyes' opening is to let the sunlight, yang energy into the top of the building. I didn't take the readings of the building, forgotten all about it as our focus was the Chinese temple. So, unable to fathom the sharp metal studs on the facade of building. The long 'throat', in my opinion, probably is to devoid the direct confrontation with the facing of opposite Chinese temple. It is 'mouth-to-mouth' facing each others' entrance. As for that poor thing Merlion, don't know why the Singapore Tourist Board housed it in that one-room hotel, which is $3000 per night stay from evening 6pm to next morning. In the daytime till evening, tourist can pay a fee to climb up the hotel and get close to the Merlion. Do you think it is worth it to attract tourist at the expense of the famous iconic Merlion?

I guess my youngest son did it on purpose....now the result is out & he is physically fit, under PES B. No more nonsense from him liao...MINDEF sent me the handbook "My Son The NS Man - what parents should know about NS. Prolly he will be enlisted after his May birthday. I am happy that he goes NS early to transform him to a better person, especially his strong character. Life is not always a bed of roses. If roses also got thorns, can prick you right? My past 13 years had not been easy too...it is these few years I dare to say I have slightly better life as I have set my goals seeking harmony and fulfilment in my own way....no longer living in the past of guilt for failing to find a partner or felt stressed for not being able to give my youngest son a complete family! He has grown up already....when we divorced, he was only 3 years old then. Looking forward, my life has just begun after seeking knowledge in Chinese Metaphysics and joining this forum here. Thank you all brothers and sisters here....you are like my family now

Feng Shui - Trigram The sectors of the house have different representation on body parts, as following: 乾卦(Qian Trigram) = Head, Lungs 坤卦(Kun Trigram) = Abdomen 震卦(Zhen Trigram) = Throat 坎卦(Kan Trigram) = Kidneys, Ear, Urinary System 艮卦(Gen Trigram) = Hands, Spine 巽卦(Xun Trigram) = Hips & Buttocks 离卦(Li Trigram) = Eyes & Heart 兑卦(Dui Trigram) = Mouth Let's say the South sector of your house has poison arrows or badly affected, then you know that there is possible eyes & heart related issues for the member of the family. We can even foretell which member of the family too...by looking at the house chart and bazi of family members.

That's why it is tough for a mother at this stage worrying for children what is best for them. Most people thought that once our children are grown up, we will have less worry...but reality is always far from dream! When they were younger, parents came home unhappy, they became worry. But when they have grown up, we worry for them instead.

Just weeks ago, my second son, who is graduating in middle of this year, has found a job in a shipyard as Architect, offering him a good starting pay (if he gets 1st class honour degree). So, he emailed me his pay scale using the salary benchmark 2010 here: http://www.salary.sg/2010/benchmark-your-m...ge-gender-2010/ Within the "15 - 24" age group, your gross monthly pay of $xxx (he excludes the bonus) places you at the 98.2th percentile among males. You are in the top 1.8% of your cohort. I thought his basic salary is considered very attractive for fresh graduates......yet he is not that happy with it as he thought Firm B will pay him higher as a Production Engineer. Moreover, his ex-classmate who is now with Firm B, received 9.8 months variable bonus on top of another 3 months performance incentive bonus, as compared to average 6-8 months VB payout by Firm A. Nevertheless, he likes the position offered by firm A, Architect, without the need to wear the overall jumpsuit everyday. He ever thought of joining the Singapore Navy, which pays him much higher starting pay Then, he told me that he might go into lecturing at Poly.... It looks like he still can't make up his mind....seems like he is a lost child now! Infact my second son picked this course (major in Naval Architect & Marine Engineering) due to the demand and higher starting pay when he graduated from Ngee Ann Poly then. This morning, while he was leaving for school, he told me that he might apply for scholarship to get a Master degree... Is $$$ is the motivation factor for young generation these days?
