Bangkok and Pattaya – 5 Days 4 Nights During Chinese New Year 2015

Olala! First time in Thailand!

What’s so special this trip was that it was my first time to be in Bangkok and Pattaya, Thailand. The third foreign county I have been to. Secondly, I was there with a tour group although it was my second time I have been with a tour group. I used to go to VN by tour in 1999 when I was too small to feel the enthusiasm. There are pros and cons to be in a tour group, but I haven’t got much to complain about as I was like too thrilled as long as I can go out and travel. Thirdly, I first experienced the roller coaster, the snow board, and the sea parachute! They are amazingly cool! I can’t wait to take part in more and more thrilling activities in the future. I am brave enough to challenge myself. :D Finally, I was embraced with that feeling again, a feeling I have long lost, although it will not be realized anyway.

Cheer for more travels, more activities, more outings, more adventures.

Happy Chinese New Year 2015!

Exam Result Day - Completion of ACCA (F - Level)

This is a day on which ACCA releases the results of Dec 2014 exam session. I have been waiting for the result which should have been delivered by email since 7am in the morning until around 2:30pm when I could finally log on to myACCA to check the result online.

Though a little later than others, my results are PASS!!! I took exam for the last two papers of e F-level (F8 and F9) and now the result is 73 and 69 respectively. I'm not really satisfied with the scores I achieved. However, since I didn't put too much effort in them last term, I didn't dare to expect too much. After all I received the lowest score I have ever had in my record (69 marks). For such a high standard setter like myself, I am kind of dissatisfied. But coming to think of it again, others have done a worse job than I did. They failed the exam. A friend told me that he needed only one more mark to pass! By then I should be happy with what I got for the effort I have put in.

Now I declare that I officially a F-graduate of the ACCA. I am undertaking P1 and P2, and I will maintain equal effort and time for the two papers, and at the same time, spend time to read other non-academic books to enhance my general knowledge and way of thoughts. 

Thanks to Dr Ghanty and Mdm Maita for their efforts in teaching me and other Cambodian young generation. I have done a good job in the last two papers.

Cheers,

Afternoon Conversation

In a group of three friends, one boy and two girls, they were talking the love story of the boy. You know what? The boy and one of the girls used to be in relationship but broken up and back to being friends. The girl was still in love with the boy although she has tried another two relationships since then. All failed. She is now single, and is now listening the story how her ex is chasing another girl. Literally they are now just friend, but emotionally she is still having a feeling connected to him.

When the boy was describing the story, he only looked at the other girl without maintaining any eye contact with his ex. She though has been keeping an eye on him at all times while he was speaking and started to feel ignored and taken for granted. It seemed that she was not there or she was an extra existence.

For around more than half an hour, she could not bear with it and poured out what she was not contented. They did notice that she was sad and saw the tear behind her eyeballs.

Nothing she said abt it and allowed them to go on. She was not good at communicating negative feelings. Then at the end of the day she found herself so depressed after meeting the two friends.

Things are going on in her mind. Why does she still have such a feeling for this boy as they have broken up for almost three years? She feels that she is an unpleasant person to be with. She feels failure. She feels down and depressed...

What should she do now?

The Conditions of Being Generous

Generosity has conditions and timing. We cannot be very generous at all times and assist anyone asking help from us or give out money to people without knowing where the money goes and how it is spent.

Someone criticized me when I post a comment on fb saying 'I normally don't give out money to beggars on the street.' He said that I should have a good heart and give out money to those beggars who cannot self sustain. I suddenly felt blamed. I was blamed that I didn't have a heart good enough to care for others. Perhaps I used to be so that embedded this thinking in him. Undoubtedly he thinks so as he has never seen me handing even a hundred riels to a beggar I suppose.

It's true that normally I don't give money to beggars on the streets as I don't wanna support them in this way. What if they simple feel motivated to just continue to beg for living? What if there is someone manipulates them to beg money and benefits the villains behind the scene? I really don't like helping in this way. First I don't know if I am really helping them. Second I don't feel I have actually helped them from their current situation. I have seen the same girl begging of the street every morning at a traffic light. I don't think I will help her out by just giving money to her every day. That's actually destroying her. And that's what I meant of not giving money to the beggars on the streets.

Generosity is conditioned. It is conditioned to the kind of people who we should help and at the time when we should help. I regret that I have not helped many people until now. I will when I can from this second onward if it is apparently for good cause.
