A Life Path 7 person is a peaceful and affectionate soul, and by nature rather reserved and analytical. The overwhelming strength of the number 7 is reflected in the depth of thinking that is shown; you will garner knowledge from practically every source that you find. Intellectual, scientific and studious, you don't accept a premise until you have dissected the subject and arrived at you own independent conclusion. This is a very spiritual number and it often denotes a sort of spiritual wisdom that becomes apparent at a fairly early age. You need a good deal of quiet time to be with your own inner thoughts and dreams. You dislike crowds, noise and confusion. You are very thorough and complete in your work, the perfectionist who expects everyone else to be a meet a high standard of performance, too. You evaluate situations very quickly and with amazing accuracy. You rely heavily on your experiences and your intuition, rather than accepting advice from someone; your hunches usually prove to be very accurate, and knowing this, you are one who tends to follow the directions they seem to guide. It's easy for you to detect deception and recognize insincere people. You aren't one to have a wide circle of friends, but once you accept someone as a friend, it's for life. You really aren't a very social person, and your reserve is often taken to be aloofness. Actually, it's not that at all, but merely a cover up for your basic feeling of insecurity. You actually like being alone, away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. In many ways, you would have fit in better in much earlier times when the pace of life was less hectic.
In the most negative use of the 7 energies, you can become very pessimistic, lackadaisical, quarrelsome, and secretive. A Life Path 7 individual who is not living life fully and gaining through experiences, is a hard person to live with because of a serious lack of consideration and because there is such a negative attitude. The negative 7 is very selfish and spoiled. If you have any of the negative traits they are very difficult to get rid of because you tend to feel that the world really does owe you a living or in some way is not being fairly treated. Fortunately, the negative 7 is not the typical 7, at least not without some mitigating positive traits. This number is one that seems to have some major shifts from highs to lows. Stability in feelings may be elusive for you.
And for my horoscope outlook for the year 2009.. =p
General Enviornment:- Work pressure and tensions in personal life await Cancerians in 2009, especially the first quarter. As a result the Cancerian may feel suffocated and caught up in the second quarter.
Profession:- A great start in teh early part of the year may change to a tough time as the year progresses. Things might however not remain so bleak at the end of the year.
Finance: Mid year investments may get you some profits.
Family and relationships:- Problems may rise to great hieghts and test your endurance in the first quarter. The second quarter of 2009 may not continue to put pressure on you.
Sagittarius/Cancer Horoscope
The combination of the Sun in Cancer and Moon in Sagittarius blends the contradictory elements of caution, tenacity, and a need for security, with the much more outgoing Sagittarius tendency to be outgoing and independent. This pairing gives you a more sociable and progressive demeanor. You can relate to generalities and ideals, but on a more real and practical basis. You can inspire confidence in people. In your relations with others you demand absolute honesty. When you detect falsity and insincerity in your dealings with people, the sensitive and defensive side of your nature quickly appears. Petty jealousies and trite behavior repels you. You live more or less by your own set of rules, often trying to live up to some ideal or idol you have set up as a goal or inspiration. You are innately the philosopher in the way that you look at life and consider those around you. In many ways, you are a true "free spirit." While you are extremely polite and tactful, you seem to have no difficulty being firm and definite. Communication is frank, open, and no one has to wonder where you stand on an issue. Weakness or timidity is rarely a problem with this placement.
haha..this is cool..

received a msg from my ex-tuition student, conveying the msg that her mother still wants me to teach tuition, this time, for the younger brother A-maths. this is the third time when i received her msg of her mum's request to ask me teach tuition..rejected the mother twice..
but this time, the mother seems persistent and has more confidence in me teaching tuition..
gosh..i'm very hesitant right now..one side of my hesitation is that i'm honoured that the mother is more confortable with my teaching method which highly likely produces positive results to her daughter (who was my student). the other side is that i've been very busy, trying my best to juggle everything..and weekends? i want to focus on one student, my study and AG..
next semester, going to have clinical attachment..arg..
but probably will be taking this assignment..just that this time, to save time and increase my productivity, i'm going to take a cab to and from this student's house..
Suddenly i miss AG...and i miss myself pampering him..for the past few weeks, i've not pampered him well, been focusing on my studies and yet at the same time, my paranoid perked.
can't wait for exams to be over, and i can cook him nice food.. =p hopefully nice.. =p haa..
and he's a good cook =) guess it's the overseas training which trained him up as a good cook..in fact, i dun mind not knowing his "secret" recipes..it makes me feel that that's one which makes him whom i love and will always remember..but on the other hand, if he wants me to know his recipes and cook for him, i dun mind either, cos i can feel i'm the one who will cook for him, just right for his taste buds. =))
oh ya! met DLY yesterday for a short coffee break in starbucks..i realise i need a break from my study..i realise i can't focus long hours now, partly cos it's a total different curriculum which i'm studying right now..
haha..anyway good catch-up session, realised that he, too, is facing the almost equivalent transition phase as me..haha..

Feeling a lot better now, after taking a few break by getting out of my house...
Met AG last night for steamboat dinner and guitar hero..! =) Dun know why..i always feel a lot better after meeting him..
after much self-reflection and advices coming from my close friends, my paranoid gets the worst of me, maybe cos i'm worried that i can't spend time with him..and that negative thoughts and phobia juz keep coming into my mind, affecting my every emotion and communication, including my faith and trust..trying my best to destroy that self-barrier and once again build up my faith and trust in r/s..
And i need to have the faith and trust in God that He has indeed sent me a wonderful gift - AG. As what i had prayed to Him before about my worry just prior to my attachment to AG.
Anyway 2 more days to my first paper..am not very worried about the first paper..
what i am more worried is the 2nd paper, which is this module on chinese medicine formulae..so many medication with different kind of herb combination, under different treatment efficiency..and can get real confused about each function for each medication as they can differ by just one or two chinese words... (o_O)
i know i can do it, as i was told by many...i am a tough mantou..!! i know i can do this..!! i can do this..! i will survive this round..!!!

started searching for the buried hp.

tell me, where is it?! where is it?!
Silent, with the smile.
ARGH..! dun give me that stupid silly irritating smile..! you think it's funny?! you think it's enjoyable to watch me in silent pain?!
With great force, threw Blogspot.
Yet, silence again..
with the smile.
Noo...i'm sorry, blogspot..! i'm sorry...! i din mean to hurt you..! i'm juz frustrated....you are my only friend right now!! you are my only listening ear right now!!!
Burst into tears and slowly dozed off into a deep sleep.
Carrying the mona lisa smile on the face.
arg...bored of studying...!!!!
getting to get a little burnt out..argh...
and i'm so bored...bored of playing games too...bored of watching shows...bored of those things which initially can help me relieve stress or boredom..even a good lunch meal which i treated myself just now couldn't help much..
argh..boring boring boring boring...
switched my hp to a silent mode and kept it in a closet, juz to force myself to forget about waiting for AG's msg...or else i get myself paranoid again...
i dun know..think i'm very stressed up..so stressed up that i can't keep my focus well...

my one-day leave's been burnt out half, cos of the meeting..sigh..lasted for almost the whole morning..it's like as if i should have taken half-day leave today..
not sure whether can take time-off from my boss.. =p
had lunch with AG near his workplace after that.. =)
starting to have more scholars in the company..and definitely the treatment to them is totally different, based on my observations and some of my colleagues..it's the reality and the pressure which i myself am starting to feel it..
but gonna be zen..stay cool and hold firmly to what i really want in my life..just keep zen and avoid any form of jealousy, envy, etc from harbouring..
ok la, at least right now, i know i've a goal to fulfil..
NTU's proposing to build a third medical school..
i feel so tempted to try my luck, although i feel that this chance's relatively very slim..it's a realistic world out there..
even when i looked at the requirements for the NUS's post-graduate med programme, i totally gave up..it's totally impossible for me to get in..
oh well...

Watched the last one hour of this movie "Mr Brother" over Channel U..a very touching story..excellent acting skills and the story plot is focused and brings a very strong meaning to the viewers. Sibling love, motherly love..the love of kinship..how the elder brother has tried to help or care for the younger bro who is played by Won Bin.
haha..still remember Won Bin was a big-time fav among ZJ they all, but not for me. He's not my cup of tea.. =p
Love the ending and how the director films and directs the story..the director manages to capture the meaning of kinship very vividly..
The story ends with the elder brother who was killed by an accidental assault and how Won Bi's character and the mother tried to cope with the loss.
And it kinda reminds me of one colleague in my department who has lost her daughter quite some time ago.. the loss was a big sudden to her, as well as the other colleagues who have watched this daughter grow up into a young adult...and i can feel that this colleague's still going through a tough time even though she talked cheerfully to us..but..it just doesn't feel right..then again, i believe she knows she has to be strong..and it's not easy for a mother to take that kind of hit...
*********************************************************************
Managed to have resolved that HR issue..hee..was pretty happy, mainly cos i feel i've striked a balance..and that my boss is relatively pleased with the way i managed it.. =)

yeah..meeting kim phong they all for dinner..!! cos tjhin has come back to singapore for a visit..!! yeah...!! the chia se team meets up again... =p
this dinner, i have to go cos i've no idea when can get to catch up with tjhin again..i always remember him to take really nice photos and made a lot of lame jokes in vietnam..

starting to get very stressed up..exams soon...has taken 7 days of my annual leave..
sigh...and i really wanna go overseas....but...i can't...cos i only have 18 days of leave....and i need to save up for exam leave...sigh....even my colleague asked me before why i am not going overseas at all, at least to take a good break..i want too...but ....i know i need to scarifice and be patient...be patient for my 2-yrs contract to be confirmed and have my exam leave to approved by then...and eventually hopefully can have longer annual leave if i stay there longer....

Went to a community club to give a briefing on a programme to a group of grassroots leaders on thursday evening during their meeting...
and gosh, how resistant and sceptical they can get...and they even had a voice recorder for their meeting...! which means i have to be careful in what i say.. =s
went there alone, partly cos there'll not be any advisor attending the meeting, which may indicate it's not going to be that tough to manage, from the feedbacks i got from my other colleagues who had went to other areas to give the same briefing..so my boss actually let me go alone..but well, the unity of grassroots leaders/reps from this area can be tough to handle..!!
gosh gosh gosh...
then again, it's good exposure and work experience for me..and given that kind of pressure, i personally feel i've done not tooo bad....at least i feel my tone was confident and assertive...despite of the sceptism truthfully expressed by many of them..

Had a chat with my colleagues over lunch..heard a few stories and learnt a lot from her..
it seems that loving the wrong person can really go bad...to the extent that it can affect almost the whole life...
gosh.
The more I think, the more i can get scared..not that AG does not treat me well..but i guess I'm just paranoid.. =p
But AG's been really nice to me recently..felt being well taken care of..and he seems to know how to make some views into very interesting theories, which that makes me laugh it off..

It's the first time to get a present for my mum on the mothers' day..
i remember her mentioning some time ago that her wallet has kinda become shabby and torn..
bought her a simple-looking Braun Buffel wallet...and i have to consider myself to be lucky yesterday, seminar ended early..and i managed to find and buy the wallet fast..and haha..I managed to find that kind of wallet design which my mum is looking for, on this brand. After looking through many brands, i still prefer Buffel..the design is simple looking yet beautiful and not flashy at all. Also, partly due to my wallet, it's the same brand and i'm loving it..haha..the design's its subtle beauty which i'm loving.
anyway my mum's happy that she has a new wallet.. =D
Quite an interesting chat with one of my colleague yesterday during the train ride to the east..kinda learnt more from him..and i can say he is one of the few guys whom i know who knows what he wants in his romantic relationship and he is a man with healthy principles which he holds on very firmly. And he recognises that a r/s is never perfect and it's the two-way communication which patches up the imperfection. Also probably cos of his interaction with his religion which he shares with his gf, all these factors seem to maintain a r/s for so long (they've been together for about 7 to 8 yrs..getting married soon)..
It's kinda interesting to learn that he used to be in the same graduation batch as me, saw him in lectures and lab sessions..but never got to talk to him till now when we are in the same company and under the same department. And yet today, I've learnt quite a lot from him. He never literally gives me a whole series of lectures, etc..but listening to his narration of a small portion of his life, I've learnt a lot and it firms up many of my thoughts.
I thank God for giving me the chance to learn from this colleague.
