you know, there are always such posts around the web. but i believe that i do need to hold such stands. about religion, about respect, about submission, about finance, about love.
which is why i need to
so here goes the post:
In a brief conversation, a man asked a woman he was pursuing the question:
“What kind of man are you looking for?”
She sat quietly for a moment before looking him in the eye & asking, ‘Do
you really want to know?’
Reluctantly, he said,”Yes.”
She began to expound…
“As a woman in this day & age, I am in a position to
ask a man what can you do for me that I can’t do for myself?
I pay my own bills. I take care of my household without the help of any
man…or woman for that matter.
I am in the position to ask, ‘What can you bring to the table?’”
The man looked at her. Clearly he thought that she was referring to money.
She quickly corrected his thought & stated, “I am not referring to money.
I need something more.
I need a man who is striving for excellence in every aspect of life.”
He sat back in his chair, folded his arms, & asked her to explain.
She said, “I need someone who is striving for excellence mentally because I
need conversation & mental stimulation. I don’t need a simple-minded man.
I need someone who is striving for excellence spiritually because I don’t
need to be unequally yoked…believers mixed with unbelievers is a recipe
for disaster.
I need a man who is striving for excellence financially because I don’t
need a financial burden.
I need someone who is sensitive enough to understand what I go through as a
woman, but strong enough to keep me grounded.
I need someone who has integrity in dealing with relationships. Lies and
game-playing are not my idea of a strong man.
I need a man who is family-oriented. One who can be the leader and
provider to the lives entrusted to him by God.
I need someone whom I can respect. In order to be submissive, I must
respect him.
I cannot be submissive to a man who isn’t taking care of his business. I
have no problem being submissive…he just has to be worthy.
And by the way, I am not looking for him…He will find me. He will
recognize himself in me. Hey may not be able to explain the connection,
but he will always be drawn to me. God made woman to be a help-mate for
man. I can’t help a man if he can’t help himself.”
When she finished her spill, she looked at him.
He sat there with a puzzled look on his face. He said,”You are asking a
lot.”
She replied, “I’m worth a lot”.

yes, i believe im worth all that too. and when it comes i'd know it and give my all.

work has been so tiring this week i feel like a prereg all over again. and believe it or not im sleeping as im typing this. seriously, i would sell all my big OD duties man. too shagggged.
i guess it would have been okay if i don't have a presentation next week. waking up at 6, start with at 730 with a have-to-be-fully-alert brain and OT-ing until the normal shift pple leaves plus going home and preparing for a presentation till 12midnight plus at night is no joke. at least i had enough sleep during prereg okay. honestly, im being ultra not efficient now. maybe i should nap 1st.

my brain is a sponge. from young, it soaks up information pretty quickly, such that i once did thing i pick up things pretty quickly. over the years by hearing endless number of pple telling me they didnt study for psle and o levels then i realised what a hardworking geek i was. damn i guess i wasn't that smart. but still i thank God that i was hardworking.
but now i feel like my brain is still a sponge..but an overworked.sponge. u know how if u squeeze a sponge too many times it will just lose it's elasticity right? imagining me doing that to my brain like 28419103 times a year. i think my STM fills the whole brain. i barely keep info in my long term memory. every test i forced my brain to soak up for that 1 paper then squeeze the info out just to soak up another paper's info.
the 1st time i felt my brain resisting was in jc. i was having difficulty soaking up the info already. partly i guess i was alr hardworking in pri and sec sch to do so well that jc just requires me to power up x10. somehow i survived and got into uni, and survived the 1st 3 years. i felt that my brain was still somewhat working then. but in year 4, omgosh i think my brain just refused to be squeezed anymore. i think after yr 4 i stopped retaining information. my brain didn't want to make the effort to. if i wasnt using the information, out it goes.
:(
it was quite devastating. it's really like 101% effort to retain info man. zzz. after a while i gave up trying. so now my brain is just surviving with minimal info for me to do my job and the rest of the info on PRN basis.
the point is: im going to die for next week's presentation. damn.
