  Hai, because you seek advice but don't listen? And you ask how to go about doing things and do things your way.

  frankly, if u are really dragging the life u hv now....then i think its better to take up something to keep yourself occupied...be it a diff kind of job or some temp stuff...or something at the community centre...an unhappy person will find it even tougher to secure wat he/she is aiming to secure....cos ppl can feel it in you, its spelled all over us....i think lah...(and its not gonna do u good for interview)...
  
  dragg...i think tho u can sustain...but u are not at all enjoying this temp break from work...might as well take up something temp ...imo...no offence..

  and unhappiness with life itself has the snow ball rolling effect...it can only get worst, unless something is done to prevent....

  when we r not able to grab on something financially, its only natural that we fear for the future...and leading despair....

  everybody screws up their lives once in a while... just keep looking out for the silver lining of the clouds... you're bound to see it if you looked hard enough.. and when you've seen it, you'll know the storm's going to be over soon.

  just like the chinese saying goes 'bi shang bu zhu, bi xia you yu' when u compare with those better off, u r not better, but when u compare with ppl worst off, u hv abundance....
  
  that's one of my 'ah Q' collection too...

  nope, jus observations. I bet there r some people who rather be unemployed than have their loved ones killed in London bombings. Its all a matter of puting things in perspective.

  I asked God to take away my pain. God said, No. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.
  
  I asked God to heal my sick child whole. God said, No. Her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.
  
  I asked God to grant me patience. God said, No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned.
  
  I asked God to give me happiness. God said, No. I give you blessings. Happiness is up to you.
  
  I asked God to spare me pain. God said, No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.
  
  I asked God to make my spirit grow. God said, No. You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
  
  I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. God said, No. I will give you life so that you may enjoy all things.
  
  Its imperative for us to see life in a different light and try to look at the POSITIVES ALWAYS!!!

  That last sentence,
  is it something your parents used to say to you?
  Now that you are free of your parents,
  are you taking over from them?
  Scolding your self.
  Stop it.
  
  Take stock of your self.
  You have actually done well.
