Hello wisefool!Originally posted by wisefool:hi all!
I'm here! I'm here!....juz that the server is very slow, very hard to get in.
hmmm...."Cannot Reach"....JQ, nice song but u juz said you wanna go for a long holiday....so not a very appropriate song to play....how about "Chu Fa"? More apt right?
Been very busy with work recently. Absolutely burnt out. Thinking of going for a break too. JQ, how about leaving in mid Oct? In that way, I won't miss your programme too!
Am thinking of taking up a community project + trekking trip to north India, helping the Tibetian refugees in north India to build school. Anybody interested? Around $1680. Let me know soon cos I think the application is close liao. I can make arrangement cos I have contact of organisers.
Will be leaving office at 7pm in time to go home watch Hits Awards at 7.30pm. Can still listen on my receiver on bus so JQ, u can play the 7pm song after 7.
wisefool
You are very kawaii leh, ask JieQi to go holiday in mid October..as far as I know, JieQin normally go on holiday in year end, December ba..right? So noble leh wisefool! Very re xin zhu ren..Too bad I can't take part..no money, no time, no holidays....haiz...
Going home to watch hits award? I'm at home le..hehe..wana watch my Idol's video..hee hee
Dun worry, JieQi..will listen till you say bye bye..as I always do..hahaha..the later you say bye, the later I off my receiver lor..

BBB,
Not noble lah. like what u said in your signature,
"Man will not, because of having received a lot of love, find life meaningful. Its only after you have given lots of love, than life is worth it"
I think its hitting 2 birds with 1 stone. Have fun and do good at the same time.
It is not about, upon death, the things you do will result in you going to heaven.
It is about, when alive, the things you do will make the earth a better place to live.
So, while I'm still searching for the meaning of being alive, should "doing good" be the answer to my search, I would be able to tell myself that I have lived life at the end of it all.
er...hope u won't complain again that I'm being too cheem again.

Well, wisefool..not chim but Impressive..really! Glad I know you leh..Make the earth a better place to live in..Doesn't matter where I will be after death..I dun believe in going to heaven..But to know why am i breathing..and what can I do..to make my life more meaningful..Originally posted by wisefool:BBB,

BBB,
what level you studying now? Must work hard leh. I think those of us already working cannot emphasize hard enuf to you the importance of paper qualifications.
I have a fellow colleague who is very much technically capable then me but as he is not a graduate, his pay is much lower.
Some other colleagues have to juggle work and study part time in order to get that degree to move them further. Trust me, it is very tiring to be working in the day and studying at night. Much worse than what you are doing now.
It really depends on what you want to be when you finish studying. But if you have not decided yet, the key is to study as much as possible. Then, when you are done and you have decided what you want to do, just flash your credentials and you will have an easier time realising your dreams.
Dun listen to that Lin Jun Jie's song. Although what he say is somewhat true, I think it is more suitable for those who have really tried and really cannot academically as a form of encouragment. For current students, enjoy the song but realise that it is really important to get that paper. I'm wondering how many students out there are actually singing that song to their parents now....and how many parents have written in to Lin Jun Jie's company to complain...
JQ, do something leh.....BBB is such a fan of yours....activate your idol power!
wisefool -
Many singers cover Sarah McLachlan's <> before but the original still sounds best. It's such a hauntingly nice song, though I'm a bit surprised now then JieQi recommended it to us. Maybe he's too obsessed with Norah Jones before this! hehe kidding...
I watched Happy Sunday some weeks ago and spotted Huang Xiao Hu on the program. Such a good singer gone waste because of "no looks, no luck". I still remember her receiving the Best Newcomer award from previous year winner Sky Wu (who happened to be her mentor and wrote some songs for her too) and feeling so happy that a good singer was duly recognised. Turned out the Best Newcomer award was "cursed" for many of the recipients, eg. Kong Ling Qi, whose achievements were remarkedly much pale than the others who did not win it. <>, <>...are such classics. Oh she released a live album recently, right? But can't seem to find it...can't find Jiang Hu's album yet too, though I've heard about it from several friends already...
I agree studying is very very important in the paper-mad Singapore. I have friends working in stat boards who have not been able to move up the ranks because of their lack of paper qualifications despite proven track record and impressive appraisals. Some had been told bluntly in the face that they should not be asking for raises and promotions when they can't even study properly. How lame, but sadly true. Study as much as you can, even though eventually you end up working in a job which has nothing to do with your field of study, because employers just want to see the PhD, MBA, BBA, BSc... in your CV. So realistic hoh?
So JieQi will be hosting late night slots soon hoh? Hmm, the good thing is that I'm usually at home then so at least I won't miss his programs

Hi wisefool! Hey, who started calling me BBB ar? Feel very strange leh..dun mind u calling me baobeiOriginally posted by wisefool:BBB,

wisefool Hahaha..kidding..I still like the way JieQi call 'browniebaobao' leh...kekeke..actually brownie is my beloved cat's name..
Oh ya..how you know I enjoy listneing to that song ar? Really chang chu wo meng de xin sheng ar! Hahahaha...You have been emphasizing on paper qualifications..sounds really leychey lor..I tell you lah..too realistic..nowadays degree holders might not even find a good job..so want so many papers for what? Perhaps entrepreneurship is better..dare to take risk, be innovative etc..Study so hard and get a few papers then take up a 9 to 5 shop ma? Very sianz right?
"JQ, do something leh.....BBB is such a fan of yours....activate your idol power!"
LOL..Very farni leh..haha..thanks har..
Dun worry for me, coz I know that I will be successful one day. What is my definition of 'successful'? That is to be able to do what I like and not letting myself and others down. I have my dreams, I'm still working hard and not giving up...Things might get better next year...Right now, I'm doing well..Of course I want paper qualifications ar, Sg is afterall, a very realistic place..Look, doesn't mean that the more certs, the higher educated you are, you will get better pay. That's a very wrong perception hor! Heard from my ex-colleagues and those in NS..see their salary..What is diploma as compared to cert from techinical institution?
Study and study...dunno how to think...always think straight, then study for what??? It's a feeling of being 'protected' and bei4 gui1 ding4..BGD do this, BGD do that...kids since young, have been told that it's good to be a doctor, lawyer etc...then so called 'inspired' to study hard and get a good cert etc...Dun want the future generations to follow our footsteps..haiz..Look at the kids nowadays..so young wear specs, schedule packed with piano lessons, tuition etc..really no freedom..At my parents' time, they were still able to play with mud etc leh...nowadays kids play computer games..Isn't it sad?
My cousin is here...got something to do liao.....Sorry if I sounded 'fierce'.. To sum up, qualification is not the most important thing afterall. -
Hi there all!
Was listening to JQ's programme yesterday, and he mentioned about this sgforums site. So I managed to find this website!
I'm a avid listener of JQ for quite some time, and I really like his selection of songs that he plays. haha. Really relaxing. Maybe he can release an album just like the YES 93.3 Yin Yue Ri Ji perhaps?
I'll definitely lay my hands on a copy!
Just to ask, can someone tell me the anthem that he plays when he reads out those UOB/OUB (I can't differentiate them.. heh!
) credit card promotions?
Glad that he also likes the new Lisa Ono album.
But I can't seem to remember the titles of the songs that he had recommended for Ann Sally... darn.
And JQ, Sarah Mclachlan should be pronounced as "sarah
mea-clock-lungh"..
So JQ, kudos and keep up the good work!

Well JieQi, see what you have done..attracted more visitors to this thread..haha..
Not sure about the background music..was it a Lisa Ono song? Really can't recall..perhaps JieQi will give you an answer this Sat..so stay tuned! 4pm-8pm..remember ar..
That name is really not easy to pronounce..heard some Djs pronounced as 'Sarah Mc-Clared-Len'..
If you notice, JieQi also contributed to the Yin Yue Ri Ji CD..the one with Huishi..

Sorry! -
I remember hearing the English DJs pronouncing it as "Mc-cluck-learn".
SARS may be back, so you guys better take care. I only hope it will not hamper my holidays coming up in less than 2months' time after all the planning efforts
bbb: I'm sure many people do have dreams. No one would be asked to give up their dreams - it's their own lives, they were just advised that paper qualifications will be a good back-up if things do not work out well. Dreams many a times cannot dang fan chi, but if you really want to, make sure you are able to put a bowl of rice for you and your family before pursuing your dreams.
Andy Lau is a good example. He had longed to shoot movies in the way he liked but would definitely not sell. So he worked and worked and worked in many movies which he didn't enjoy but could provide him the earnings. Finally he was at a stage where he decided he could pursure his dreams while making sure his family had enough to get by, he set up a movie company and produced movies which he liked. Some of them won critical accolades (eg."Made in HK" by Fruit Chen) but all bombed in box office. Still he was happy he could fulfil his dreams without having to compromise his family's upkeep. His company eventually folded, but I think he might make a comeback again.
Just trying to say that you don't have to give up your dreams, but one needs to find a balance / trade-off to fulfill your dreams and at the same time will not make your loved ones worry about the next meal. Afterall the dreams are all yours, but your family is yours too. It would not be fair that while you actualise your dreams, your loved ones' tummies have to suffer because of that, right?
Entrepreneurship is not that easy too. I had a friend who started a shop with her friend not long after graduation, while her fiance (now her husband) was the only one actually making money and contributing to the household because she spent all her savings on the shop. He also had to do the household chores because being an entrepreneur meant she was engaged day to night everyday and had no time at all. However, the shop eventually folded and she had no personal savings left. Of course her husband did not blame her since he encouraged to her to fulfil her dreams in the first place. However, she felt guilty that for the sake of wanting to fulfil her dreams, not only she did not contribute much for the family, she had to make her husband worry. She eventually made a decision. She now holds down a regular 9-to-6 job and lives a prudent lifestyle, but she's not giving up her dreams, just that she decided that will come later. She weighed her priorities and decided to start contributing to the household but at the same time save up to a target when she can start pursuing her dreams again. (frankly, entrepreneurship in some extent has to have some capital to start on)
Haha sounds like preaching, but it's laying to you what the real world holds. I know there are cases of successful entrepreneurs, but for every successful one, there can be hundreds of failed ones. Where will the means of support come from for the families of the failed ones? Unless you come from a rich family (who can self-support) or are no-string-attached (no families), I guess it's something we had to face up to in reality.
Just some experience to share with you. You can take it as just a read and ignore it, but perhaps it can also provide you with more details of the what-ifs when you eventually want to take the plunge. -
Hi borez, It's ok..juz curious nia..
Hi Hajime! I agree with you. Why use Andy Lau as an example? Hahaha..He is my idol you know? He never let me down. He won't be very broke wan..
I know what entrepreneurship is all about..I have a fren who is very successful..his name was even mentioned by dunno PM or Deputy PM..If you want to be an entrepreneur, you must be able to take risks mah...There is no guarantee return wan..Of course I have frens who failed/are struggling in their business ar..You never know what you are capable of until you try.
MY buddy thinks that with my personality, I might be content to take up a 9-5 job..haha..bcos I juz want to lead a simple life...But deep inside, I like to challenge myself leh...Anyway..those are still far away lah..Who knows I might juz get married and shake legs at home or be a huang lian po lor...
As to 'support my family before realizing my dreams'......well, it's very wu2 nai4...haiz..Now I know why so many people have regrets and Yi2 Han4 at their deathbed. -
All forummers take care, the suspected SARS case is now a confirmed case, so do exercise caution......Where did I throw my thermometer???
bbb: I am quite risk adverse and contented to live a simple life too. In every different phase in life, dreams may evolve or other priorities will set in. I used to have big dreams, some of which are fulfilled and the rest not. Those which were fulfilled were thankfully overrides those which were not actualised and I am a content person For me now, spending time and sharing memories with my family is more important than anything. I may have a lot of complaints about work and life, but at the end of the day, knowing that my family is always being there for me overrides any concerns which I may have In fact, my biggest dream now is to make sure my family remains a happy and contented unit with no major worries. You can call me a homebody hehehe -
actually, can someone tell me JQ's actual broadcast timings?
I only know about the Sat 4-8pm one. -
Hi all,
welcome borez...glad u manage to find the forum.
it's interesting to read all these talks about dreams and paper qualification. having gotten my degree and in a job perceived to be a dream job by my fellow classmates (who think i'm way too lucky and dun deserve it), i also wonder about my dreams and my future. Feel tat study so much is a waste of time, but given a choice and with cash, I will want to go back to school to study again and enjoy the process of studying.
BBB, a minimum qualification is important. But do what you ultimately want to do with your life, what makes you happy and make you feel that you have not live your life in vain.
Right now, I'm still doing my soul-searching, reading a lot and listening to lotsa different kind of music to discover myself and what I want to do with my life. I know I don't want to be just a nobody and so I'm still trying to figure out what is the 'Somebody' I want to be.
Ono Lisa's recently albums are quite nice. But I feel her best album I've ever heard is a jazz album by title "Dream" - Y1999. Her rendition of ''As Time Goes By' is simply beautiful and soulful. Taiwanese fren brought from Taiwan. I can't find it in Singapore at all. Intend to order and import it. -
Hi borez,
Welcome! Finally, i'm not the newest! JQ only does 1 shift per week. Most of the time its Sat 4-9. Sometimes he does Sat midnight, sometimes he does Sun4-9.
Shervon99,
What are you doing now? Sounds interesting, dream job.
BaoBei,
Sorry to have triggered all this talk on study. We sound just like your mother and father right? Nagging u to study hard. Geez...how drastic my thinking have changed since I left school....guess i must really admit old liaoz.
Well, heard tonight is the 1st time in 300 yrs that the moon on the 15th of Lunar Moon is actually rounder than the 16th. Catch it at 1am. U might still be able to see Mars next to it too.
