Positive Thinking, Healthier Mindset

There is a new advertisement that Government is spamming the media now days. It goes something like this:

Elephant, "Hey Monkey, how have you been doing lately?"

Monkey "Bad... What I'm working now can only let me afford peanuts."

Elephant "That's not consider bad, at least you can still afford peanuts!"

Monkey in deep thoughts then replied, "Yeah, you are right, at least I still can afford peanuts, better than nothing!"

Then they both laugh. (The Giraffe is merely an extra)

End

Correct, it is good to have a positive thinking to have a healthier mindset. However, to think again, it's really hard to have a positive thinking for me in this society. I keep thinking that this advertisement is just a propaganda from the Government that telling us to be contented. How can we be contented?

If you are not aware about this, the society has changed. Thinking positive? Nah, there's a new trend. Selfishness has evolved. Humans not only tend to be selfish and yet they want gaining by not contributing. This syndrome will be the new trend and it is called Spite. Spite is evil, it is a phenomenon that occurs when a player's value of an allocation decreases when one or more other players' value increase. Thus other things being equal, a player exhibiting spite will prefer an allocation in which other players receive less than more, if the good is desirable. Humans today has learn to be spiteful. The will have minimum contribution but they want maximum rewards in return.

Some vivid examples in our daily lives.

Imagine you have 2 siblings. Your mother, Madam Dae Jung Hu is an overworked housewife. After dinner, you and your 2 other siblings dump the dishes in the basin and walk away. The intentions are: Madam Dae Jung Hu will wash for us. You and your siblings only want to enjoy the meal (rewards) but dun wish to help out in cooking or washing (zero contributions!). You and your siblings are being spiteful!

Not only you, Madam Dae Jung Hu is spiteful as well. Happen that one day she went to a supermarket. She took one item and went to the cashier to ask for a discount. The cashier replied that that item will be discounted unless spending more than $50. Without further consideration, Madam Dae put that item back. Her thinking was, she wants the discount (reward) but she dun want to spend more than $50 (no contributions).

With the field of social evolution, Spite has been nailed to our behavior as we grow up. Sad to say, it has became an instinct. The very first innocence of us has been corrupted by Spite. When we are young, we will share and contribute what we can willingly. However, as we grow up, we may think thrice of contributing. But we think nothing when it comes to receiving the reward.

With spiteful act in our society, it is very hard for me to think positively. But think again, if it doesn't bother me, why should I care so much? Hmm... I guess I need to take a break. Maybe to somewhere else, maybe outta this world.

That Sunday we went to...

Been there, done that.

Science Center!! Oh boy oh boy! It has been a long time since I've been there. They say Leonardo Da Vinci is a genius and happen that there was this exhibition for him at Science Center so we agreed to have a visit. I always want to know Da Vinci more.

Okay, they are right, he was indeed a genius. His inventions, creations, productions really impress me. His existence made a lot of contributions for human race till date. And if without exhibition, I would never know that he's an Italian. I would never know the secrets of Mona Lisa Painting. I would never know how Mona Lisa Painting end up in France but was actually painted in Italy. I would never know that he had a big nose. I would never know that he was "happy" but he had a wife.

Not only this that impress me, I'm also impress to see that children now days are not being taught what they ought to do and what they should not do when visiting an exhibition. Yes, they ARE NOT being taught. Signage and notice boards (Please do not touch) are put up for a reason but still, *sigh children were seen fiddling with the art pieces of Mr Da Vinci. It's is a sad thing that parents have not done their part. I'm quite worried and I think I will have to re-consider whether to have a baby next time. Children thought that this exhibition is just another playground for them but this was meant to be an educational trip. If I were Da Vinci, I think I was not being respected.

Edited: Okay, managed to take 1 photo before entering the exhibition. This is the bridge that was designed by Da Vinci. The specialty is that the was constructed without using any screws, bolts, nuts and ropes. The interlocking of each and every logs was used to substantiate the durability. Just imagine that you come across the bridge, will you be daring enough to cross it?

Just too bad that they dun allow cameras in the exhibition, or else you all will see photos flooding all over this blog entry.

Been there, watched that.

Another movie by our homegrown director Jack Neo, "Where Got Ghost?" Maybe because of the coming Seventh Month Ghost Festival that's why have this kind of movie.

At first, when watching this movie, I really hate being Singaporeans . Maybe I'm too drama or what. Budden (But then), actually every Jack's movie convey us a message. For this movie, it tells us that whatever you have done, you must account for it. Dun ever think that Ghost do not exist, you will never know.. Wooooooo~ Scary...

There are 3 parts story-telling scenes. These 3 parts has totally no linkage upon one another. The jokes are funny and some of the scenes are scary. If you are not alert or well prepared enough, you might get frighten and your body might jerk and you will end up embarrassed yourself because you are not man enough!

I jerk a lot of times... Dammit.

Funny show but... I'm regret of watching it.

Bad people deserve nothing

Bad people

A) Selfish, do things for themselves, unwilling to help others.

B) Selfish, do things for themselves, unwilling to help others and still want to gossip about others.

C) Selfish, do things for themselves, unwilling to help others, gossip about others and everything they also want to know.

They can make an effort to go look around and keep asking what is going on but they dun want to make an effort to offer help.

You do nothing but give us hell.

Add on: And it's sad that I can only vent my anger here. After that, move on.
