the defining moment

the popular series the defining moment
screening on channel 8 every weekdays 9-10pm
starring fann wong



Since young, Lin Kexin, the CEO of Tang Group, had been groomed in the ropes of business by her maternal grandfather Tang Dazhong. When she was 12 years old, her grandfather adopted her suggestion for a major business decision, thereby setting the future developmental course of the Tang Group. After her graduation, her grandfather appointed her to succeed him as the CEO of Tang Group. The decision sparked off vehement protests from her uncle Tang Weiye, who with his daughter-in-law Zheng Wanyu, were bent on undermining her.

Hence, when Tang Dazhong became comatose, they took the chance to seize control of Tang Group. It was at this time that Kexin found that she often suffered attacks of uncontrollable hysteria. Gripped with fear and shock, she wondered what could have caused such mental anomaly. Was it brought about by her grandfather’s critical condition, or was there something wrong with her mental faculties, or could it be the news that Sun Jiaming and her staff Fan Xiaoning became an item that so depressed her?

anyways
in the show
every one thinks lin ke xin has inherited her grandma's mental illness
however the medical report was actually faked by the doctor
thanks to her uncle's bribery

the important thing now
is every one is fooled about her condition
even herself

today my mother commented that
her acting isnt good/realistic

it really made me think
all these while
i've been blindly watching
forgetting my experiences

during her 'lunatic' or 'crazy' periods
would she really act the way she did?
like taking medicine while she's in a fit?
letting others force her into doing something against her will
wouldnt she struggle?

there are many flaws in the story
i can only say
either they didnt do enough research
or they made the situation less serious
so that the story could flow the way they wanted it

blahs.
once a video student
always a video student =P

they were flying and crawling or walking into the villa
and we had to tape up all doors and windows just to keep them out!
and the next morning we had to sweep up all their bodies

mat and ying both came to a draw
on how much they found

at night
we had our very own bbq!
mat as the main chef!
and me as the refill drinks girl. hahaha

mat cleaned and scrubbed the lalas
it was cleaner than the ones they sell outside!
but because it was so tiny
they had to eat like 4 or 5 to get the la la taste
haha. but still very cool eh =P

we had steak ham corn bacon sausages chicken wings yada yada
like i said. we over bought

i ended up sharing cup noodles with zixuan later in the night
because both of us arent bbq people
we get full from the bbq smell

oh! and the burning bbq smoke killed my eyes
i had to wear zixuan's goggles so that it wouldnt hurt so much
kinda made me look like a space woman. haha

the personality test

i suddenly had the mood to blogg
its been a long time
about a month to be exact
=)

browsed through jiayi's blogg
took the personality test
and im a ..

Social Realist (SR)
Social Realists are popular persons full of energy. They are reliable, well organized and helpful. Traditional values are important to them. Founding a family also plays a central role in their life. Social Realists have a marked social streak. They are always ready to listen to the worries and problems of others and spare no effort when they are asked for help. With empathy and understanding, they can sense what other people need. Social Realists are always willing to highly regard the strong points of the other person and to excuse that person’s weaknesses. They are the most sociable of all personality types. Social contacts are very important to them.

Social Realists find it very difficult to cope with conflicts and criticism - harmony is their elixir of life. Acknowledgement and esteem are very important to this type. Differentiation on the other hand is not necessarily one of their strong points. At work and in partnerships, they are loyal, committed and always there when needed. They find it easy to make friends due to their open, warm manner and they have a large circle of friends. In love, they are faithful and attentive and care for their partners with a great deal of imagination and sensitivity. Social Realists show their feelings openly and honestly. Should a relationship break up, they tend to blame themselves. That is why they find it very difficult to end a partnership even if it has not fulfilled their requirements for some time.

Social Realists are more conservative types. They have a set system of values and rules which is orientated to the prevailing traditions. They prefer clear, structured surroundings and work processes; they find too much change und unrest unpleasant. Their strong points are carefulness and reliability and not so much flexibility and spontaneity. Social Realists are open-minded towards anything new only to a limited extent. But, should one be looking for someone to fulfil a task reliably and exactly, they are the right persons.

Adjectives which describe your type
extroverted, practical, sentimental, planning, emotional, temperamental, energetic, tradition-conscious, loyal, helpful, devoted, reliable, caring, objective, thorough, organised, warm-hearted, open, friendly, sociable, chummy, obliging, self-sacrificing, public-spirited, sensitive, kind, demanding

These subjects could interest you
honorary work, parties, going out, music, hiking, cooking, craftwork, nature, literature

i think its quite accurate to a certain extend
cant believe how just a few questions can be so real

-edit-

i took the test again and found out that im a ..

Determined Realist (DR)
Determined Realists like to bear responsibility and welcome challenges. They are stable, reliable persons. External contacts are very important to them; they mix well and are very active. They are excellent organisers and are very happy when things are done correctly and punctually; they can quickly react impatiently if others are not as conscientious, orderly and dutiful as they are. They prefer structured work which produces visible results quickly to abstract, long-drawn-out processes. Determined Realists have no problem with routine as long as it serves efficiency. However, they very much dislike unexpected and unpredictable occurrences which mess up their careful plans. Once they have committed themselves to a cause they do this with dedication and are willing to make considerable sacrifices for it.

Determined Realists do not avoid conflicts and criticism but face up to them and look for solutions. As they have a keen eye for the errors and shortcomings of others and are often quick at expressing criticism, they sometimes rub people up the wrong way especially when they lose their temper and jump to conclusions. Due to their marked sense of justice they are quickly willing to correct themselves and never take offence if someone speaks to them frankly. You do not have to seek hidden motives with them; you always know where you are. Determined Realists are often found in executive positions as they combine commitment, competence and the ability to assert themselves. In their spare time, they often also accept responsibility in clubs and other institutions.

Traditions rate highly with Determined Realists. They attend every family event and never forget a birthday or wedding anniversary. Family and friends are very important to them. With their open, communicative manner, they find it easy to get to know people and have a large circle of friends and acquaintances. They are never superficial, but reliable and loyal friends who are always there when they are needed. Determined Realists take their relationships very seriously - they dream of finding a partner for life. In a love relationship, they seek above all stability and loyalty and here, too, they are willing to invest a lot in a harmonious togetherness. Determined Realists master crises or difficult phases with composure; they would never think of breaking a promise given. As a partner, one can always rely on their support.

Adjectives which describe your type
extroverted, practical, logical, planning, direct, structured, conscientious, responsible-minded, self-confident, critical, honest, orderly, reliable, controlled, objective, able to concentrate, resolved, purposeful, communicative, with a sense of duty, tradition-conscious, stable, able to deal with conflicts, solution-oriented, relationship-oriented, efficient, impatient, warm-hearted, competition-oriented

These subjects could interest you
clubs, associations, going out, sport, travel, music, trekking, camping, hiking, cooking, handicrafts, nature, strategy games, politics
