52 reasons why it's great to be single~lol~

Forget the home-alone image of sad singleton women curled up on the sofa longing for a hug. Independent women everywhere know that being single is something to celebrate. Here's why?

  1. We don't have to fight for remote control ownership.
  2. We don't have to wash their smelly socks and skiddy underwear.
  3. There are no pairs of shoes left in the middle of the floor to trip over at six in the morning.
  4. We can lie in the bath for as long as we want.
  5. We don't put a wash on and then find ten articles of clothing belonging to him lying in heap in the corner of the bedroom.
  6. We don't have to fake an orgasm.
  7. We don't have to shave and can turn into yetis if we want.
  8. We don't have to buy and write our own Valentines/birthday/Mother's day cards.
  9. We don't have anyone saying 'you're not going to wear that, are you?'
  10. We don't have to suffer their cooked meals and then spend an hour trying to get the burnt, congealed mess of the bottom of our saucepans.
  11. I love not being accountable to anyone - if I want to do something, I just do it!
  12. I control my finances and if I screw up, it's my fault, not because my man has spent money we need down the pub, bookies, etc.
  13. I enjoy sleeping in my double bed and having it all to myself.
  14. I can be moody without anyone trying to find out if something's wrong! If I don't want to talk - I just won't!
  15. I have FREEDOM to choose.
  16. I love it now my pillows are a dribble free zone.
  17. I love waking up and not hearing the sound of snoring.
  18. I love going out and not having to say where I've been or what I've been doing and what time I should be back.
  19. I love going shopping and not having to hide what I've bought in the wardrobe and pretend I've had it ages.
  20. I love being able to have control over what I spend and where I spend it.
  21. After being married for 23 years (now separated six months) I also find it kind of scary to go out now that all the restrictions have been lifted...its like being a teenager again. Weird. I feel like I have been let out of prison.
  22. You can tell him what you really think instead of keeping the peace.
  23. You can be rude to his family.
  24. You can eat what YOU want.
  25. You can join a gym because you want to.
  26. You can be rude to his boss.
  27. I can have my friends over to drink wine and behave outrageously WHENEVER I want (because he never liked those friends anyway!).
  28. I can open the curtains when I get dressed instead of fumbling about in the dark trying to keep quiet.
  29. I don't have to worry about what sort of food to buy because he never liked any of it anyway. Now I can eat whatever, whenever I choose.
  30. I'm not made to feel like an idiot for sitting on the Internet - I can surf to my hearts content.
  31. I can listen to Depeche Mode 24/7!
  32. I can spend all night on the phone without having to justify it.
  33. I go to bed when I please, not when he 'wants to'. I can read all night and have the radio on.
  34. There's no one to criticise the state of my car!
  35. There's plenty of space in the wardrobe.
  36. I don't have to appear interested in his job.
  37. I no longer spend hours looking excited in computer stores or car showrooms, do not need to admire mobile phones, personal organisers, latest gadgets...
  38. I can make a mess, and never tidy it up.
  39. I can drink wine out of a mug.
  40. I don't have to write cards on his behalf for birthdays or Christmas.
  41. I no longer have to excuse his behaviour - OR MINE!!!
  42. You can do a smelly fart without being told it's 'unladylike'.
  43. You are entitled to an opinion!
  44. You don't have to satisfy yourself while he's in the bath to make up for the fact he couldn't manage to give you an orgasm in the first place.
  45. You don't have to like Starsky and Hutch/Dads Army/Airwolf.
  46. You don't have to watch the '10 minute free view' on the Playboy Channel with the sound turned down.
  47. You don't have to take being called a 'man hater' just because you disagree with what he says (let's face it, they're usually always wrong anyway).
  48. You can wear the same knickers for two or three days without caring that there might be a 'spontaneous going down' session on the cards.
  49. You can love Adam Ant, Boy George, Simon le Bon and David Sylvian without being lectured that only gay men look that good - THREATENED!
  50. You don't have to listen to him hyperventilating every time a Kylie Minogue video appears on MTV.
  51. You don't have to worry about your sanitary towel not flushing away properly.
  52. BONUS: You don't have to pad the toilet with bog roll to disguise the fact that the poo is gonna make a big splash.

Personal DNA Report~

O Yeah~~~继点名游戏之后,我又完成了Sissi布置的第2项作业~感动伐?哈哈哈~ 

My personalDNA Report

You are a Free-Wheeling Leader.

 

about you

You are a Leader

  • Your solid grounding in the practicalities of life, along with your self-assuredness and your willingness to appreciate new things make you a LEADER.

  • You're in touch with what is going on around you and adept at remaining down-to-earth and logical.

  • Although you're detail-oriented, this doesn't mean that you lose the big picture.

  • You tend to find beauty in form and efficiency, as opposed to finding it in broad-based, abstract concepts.

  • Never one to pass on an adventure, you're consistently seeking and finding new things, even in your immediate surroundings.

  • Because of this eagerness to pursue new experiences, you've learned a lot; your attention to detail means that you gain a great deal from your adventures.

  • The intellectual curiosity that drives you leads you to seek out causes of and reasons behind things.

  • Your confidence gives you the potential to take your general awareness and channel it into leadership.

  • You're not set on one way of doing things, and you often have the skills and persistence to find innovative ways of facing challenges.

  • You are well-attuned to your talents, and can deal with most problems that you face.

  • Your independent streak allows you to make decisions efficiently and to trust your instincts

  • You have a strong sense of style and value your personal presentation - friends may even seek your style advice from time to time.

  • If you want to be different:

  • There's more to life than the practical - take some time to daydream and explore the aesthetic sides of things.

  • how you relate to others

    You are Free-Wheeling

  • Your charismatic nature, liveliness, and independence make you FREE-WHEELING.

  • You don't mind being in the spotlight, preferring social gatherings to quiet nights at home.

  • You take a practical approach to people, not getting too involved in their feelings—or their business.

  • At the same time, your acceptance of others leads you to be understanding of their life circumstances, even if you don't quite understand their emotional reactions to some things.

  • Although you have a wide circle of friends, you're very discerning as to whom you can trust.

  • You're not rigid in your beliefs about the world, and you don't want to impose your perspective on others, but at the same time, you know that plenty of people don't always act responsibly.

  • Engaging with others is a large part of how you live in the world, and most importantly, it plays a role in how you see yourself—you tend to learn a lot about yourself in situations where you are with other people.

  • You have an understanding of the complexities of situations, and you don't judge others too hastily.

  • If you want to be different:

  • Your open-mindedness about the world gives you a great perspective on things, but your lack of trust in others limits how close you can get with them. Try opening up to people a bit more without losing your healthy skepticism.

  • While being the life of the party will occasionally come naturally to you, be sure to reserve time for yourself—see what you can learn by spending some time observing the world rather than just by diving in.

    被你点名我真是激动万分啊~弄看我乖伐,噶快就完成任务了~哈哈哈~

     

    2.你觉得自己快乐吗

    表面上是吧,好像我总是过度的乐观,总是带着过剩的笑容,永远都是一副无所谓的样子;那些不快乐大多埋在心底,被快速稀释后不愿再去刻意记起~

     

    3.2007年最大的心愿是什么?

    不再那么迷茫,希望未来能够更清晰一些~

     

    4.你会毫无保留的相信你的朋友么?为什么?

    越远越好,在这里压抑了太久~

     

    6.哪种类型的异性让你最反感?你喜欢暧昧的感觉么?

    素质差,人品差的~

    借用一下歌词:暧昧让人受尽委屈/ 找不到相爱的证据/ 何时该前进何时该放弃/ 连拥抱都没有勇气~

     

    7.他(她)做过得让你最感动的一件事情? 

    现在还不知道在哪里来,怎么回答啦~

    一个人大吃大喝大睡外加自我疗伤,希望一觉醒来统统忘光~

    看人咯~人与人对待不开心的态度各不相同,有人喜欢被关心安慰照顾的感觉,会找人倾诉发泄;有人习惯了独自面对,有什么东西自己扛有什么苦水自己咽,会闭关修行静静思考~对于前者,可以扮演知心大姐心理医生咨询顾问的角色;对于后者,我也无能为力,会留给对方时间和空间,在事后选择适当的机会给予支持和鼓励~

     

    16.你觉得自己什么时候最倖福!?

    19.跟多少异性交往过?

    先来个笑话热身一下:

    同志们,我们目前正处于成家立业的初级阶段。虽然在二十多年的生活中我们取得了认识众多异性的巨大成就,但在将这些成就转化为成果方面做得还不够。面临的主要矛盾是:日益增长的爱我的人我不爱和日益减少的我爱的人不爱我之间的矛盾。情敌斗争已不是主要矛盾,但在一定时期还长期存在,个别时期还可能激化。最后让我们以必须快找、必须快结、必须快生的重要思想指引,让一部分人先婚,先婚带后婚,最后全婚!

    哈哈哈哈哈~异性么大多都是称兄道弟称姐道妹的哥们呀~

     

    20.你通常对爱人撒谎么?为什么?

    爱人啊?还不知道在哪里来~不过人生本来如戏,生活需要善意的谎言,只要不是通常”~

     

    21.大学里最让你开心和不开心的两件事?

    哎,我的大学生活不堪回首啊~拒绝回答~

    (哦哟,下面这段话撒情况啦~anyway~)

    施加欢云:好了~~~终于答完了~~~累死我了,但是让我兴奋的时候到了!!!!点名开始了!!被点到的同胞自觉点,没被点到的同胞也不要暗自庆幸,更不要伤心难过,因为只能点10个人,要不然认识我的人无一幸免!!

     

    *22:事业家庭哪个重要?

    放在以前我肯定会不假思索地回答--事业,实在很难想象和另一个人去分享这种自由自在随心所欲的生活,和自己好好相处也是一门艺术啊~

    可最近不停地听到周围有意无意的苦口婆心~Lane啊,朋友有了伐?小姑娘要快地呀,满叫年纪大了就么机会了,看看周围有撒合适额人选自噶要多多留意blahblahblahblahblah~Geez,怎么人人都成了结婚狂?这个疯狂的世界啊~

     

    *22: What did you think I needed to improve on to make myself more feminine??!

    ~我也很想知道问题的答案究竟是什么~

    男人的等级~ (ZZ from Life Weekly)

    话说阿宝同学在受到我的蛊惑后着手进行了无比变态的保鲜膜大法.由于我一时疏忽,忘了把要领解释清楚,导致他在使用了某种Scrub Cream包上保鲜膜之后,犹如自焚一般,结果酿成一出"小宝烫伤了"的惨剧~对此我深表歉意~阿宝啊,真是对不起呀对不起~

    谨以此文安慰阿宝同学幼小受伤的心灵,并且感谢刘老板带我们这帮小的出来混~

    男人的等级

    by 牙牙鱼(澳大利亚悉尼)

            在我成长的祖国据说有一种说法:一等男人家外有家,二等男人家外有花。而在我生活的国家澳大利亚也有一种说法,那就是一等男人家里有他,二等男人家外有他
      强烈的中西文化冲突就在这个时候再一次体现出来了。
      一等男人家里为什么有他?他是谁?他叫什么名字?这是一个个令许多各个不同等级的中国男人都百思不得其解的问题。
      好吧,现在我就谈谈这个的具体情况。
      刚来澳大利亚的时候,我有一个女朋友就告诉我说:一般来说是这样的,全澳大利亚,最有文化,最有品位,最帅,最好身材,最有礼貌,最一流最一流的男人肯定是同性恋。
      我有一次就在酒吧看到一个男人像布莱特彼德,一个男人像裘德洛,本来他们还只是勾勾肩,后来他们就亲嘴了。我当场就昏死了过去。
      我被救醒后对这种说法就深信不疑。后来我自己身边也出现了很多同性恋的优秀男人,让我更加拥护一等男人家里有他这个说法。
      我后来和一些同性恋的男人成了很好的朋友。虽然澳大利亚社会对同性恋很宽容,但是有些华裔的同性恋还是会受到一些家庭的压力。
      我的好朋友P就是其中一个。为了避免家里不停给他介绍女朋友,他邀请我扮演他的女朋友长达两年之久。直到我在街上和我真正的男朋友逛街被他家人看到以为我劈腿才告终。最后他用她伤尽了我的心,让我从此不要再看到女人为理由终于可以正大光明地不谈恋爱,而我就含冤戴上潘金莲的帽子,很长一段时间在街上冒着要被人扔臭鸡蛋的危险出入。
      虽然直到现在他家里还是不清楚他真正的性取向。但是他在公司里,每个人都知道他有要好的男朋友,在朋友圈子里他也一直和他的男朋友出双入对,但是面对他那两个香港移民的父母,他始终无法说出自己真正的性取向。
      所以我的朋友P只能算是二等男人。许多一等男人就可以公开和自己喜欢的男人同居生活。澳大利亚是一个承认同性伴侣的国家。同性的伴侣甚至可以申请移民。还值得一提的是澳大利亚每年有一次盛大的同性恋游行。这一天,许多花枝招展的男女人就走到街上去了。那天全澳大利亚人民都好像过年一样,他们的喜悦深深感染了身边每一个人。
      其实我们年纪越长,越是明白爱无国界,爱也不分性别。比较起我们祖国传说中那种家外有家,或者家外有她的一等二等男人,其实都是垃圾。
      爱是尊重别人也尊重自己。一个人爱她还是爱他都是不重要的,重要的是他尊重了他的爱,也等于尊重了自己。 

    2007/8/5

    Summer Intern 1 (to be continued)~

    生活总是充满着数不清的变数,促不及防。好像已经习惯了什么叫做跌宕起伏,一次次从云霄飞车上跌落到谷地,随后又一次次的循环往复。

    一两个月前,总以为暑假又会在日复一日的上课中度过,把汗水挥洒在黑板前,把喉咙奉献给伟大的民办教育事业,继续拜会各路牛人牲口畜生。与之相伴的还有那些可爱的或是不可爱的学生,吃到想吐的利华快餐,自悔形象的夸张笑话,浑身粉笔灰的女民工造型,甚至是倒霉的咽喉炎。自然而然也就不会去考虑什么实习的问题,整个四五六月当别人都在忙着弄CV去神奇照相馆拍照奔波于校内三天两头的各大外企外资银行咨询投行四大等实习宣讲会随后不停地参加各种笔试面试,我的脑海中出现的总是老杨那千篇一律的口头禅——好好给我备课!

    可计划终究还是没赶上变化。

    我是个习惯了把事情提前都安排好的人,schedule上总会排好每天的大致行程,一周的活动安排等等,因此对于突然袭击永远感冒。可生活一而再,再而三地上演超级变变变。哭笑不得。如同SY说的那样,我就是个很好笑的人。

    某日的一通电话,将七八月的日程表全部打乱。

    期末的最后两天,一边临时抱佛脚心不在焉地复习专业课,一边焦头烂额地弄CV,上网,打电话,找实习,问东问西。发现自己的心理承受能力好像突然间加强了,对于各种刺激都能颇为平静地接受,清醒地回归现实,计划着下一步该怎么走。

    于是就有了所谓的实习。

    实习的日子里莫名其妙地怀念起去新东方上课的日子。以前上课的时候可以优哉游哉地八点出门,心情好的时候坐公车,心情不爽的时候美其名曰为了保存体力节约时间就打车去教学点,昭化路和徐家汇那里恰好都是不多不少三公里的路程,然后在休息室小憩一会儿翻翻课本说说笑笑,八点半准时出现在教室门口。

    现在的上下班可谓是恐怖,从家门口开始,拜轨道交通几号线的浩大工程所赐,在一阵尘土飞扬,黄沙泥土石头的坑坑洼洼,不绝于耳的机器轰鸣声,还有熙熙攘攘挥汗如雨的民工兄弟中,穿着衬衫一步裙之类束缚行动力的衣服踩着高跟鞋提着大包,杀出一条通往一号线的道路。八点左右的一号线挤得如同沙丁鱼罐头,偏偏我又不会什么挤车秘诀,每次都习惯了最后一个钻上地铁,结果等了几班地铁后在一阵嘟嘟嘟的提示音中好不容易踏进了地铁门。到了人民广场后又和无数人推推搡搡,以蜗牛爬行般的速度涌向二号线,再次领略地铁门一开一关时的洪水猛兽景象,几班列车经过后再踏上二号线,通常是双脚踮半天手也不知道该往哪里抓,反正大家前胸贴后背,不分彼此亲密无间,怎么也不可能东倒西歪。有时一穿鱼嘴鞋脚趾就被狂踩一通,还要忍受地铁里弥漫的各种气味。

    偶尔无聊就顺便观察下陆家嘴金融男和张江IT男的显著区别,发觉张江男果然大多属于不拘小节的豪放派,而陆家嘴男则异常痛苦,大多是长袖衬衫必恭必敬扣好,领带有模有样系好,有的全套正装上身,在这样的高温下怀疑都要捂出痱子了,头颈里还吊块胸卡,一手提着笔记本,一手翻翻红底白字报头之类的财经类报纸期刊,人人都呈现出汗流浃背及面部狰狞状。

    二号线一到陆家嘴,又是一阵死命地推啊挤啊,随着滚滚人流走出地铁站,在一阵蹬蹬蹬之后,踏进金贸,冲上电梯刷了若干次门卡外加输密码后,长吁一口气坐定下来,早已是人魔鬼样了。路上常常会看到不少经院的熟悉面孔,估计大多是在陆家嘴一带实习的,每个人的表情都貌似非常痛苦疲惫,还有一对04WEcouple上下班同进同出二号线和金贸,有段时间里几乎每天能在路上碰到他们。后来还发现了在10F实习的婉约同学,真是巧啊,哈哈。

    说到地铁,真是搞笑无比。有一回上班比较空闲的时候用ebuddy问候在IBM实习的M同学,听gaga说他异常辛苦,对于一个无比喜欢睡懒觉一天睡眠超过10小时的人来说,要每天大清早6点半出门奔赴闵行。他说最近有个重大发现,每次一号线快到莘庄站时总会有一帮子人哄向同一个地铁门口,随后地铁一到站,那帮人就拼死老命往同一个方向赶。起初M同学还以为他们是要赶时间急着出地铁换轻轨或是继续赶路,后来终于发现了其中的奥秘。原来那帮子人一同浩浩荡荡奔到对面反方向的一号线上,找个位子舒舒服服坐下来,再这么坐回去。怪不得从莘庄方向开过来的一号线永远都是那么的挤啊~

    (废话太多了,后面的东西下回继续分解~
