  tat place is alrdy filled w/ ppl who dun even know wat's going on... say things like why at Malaysia so cheap... yeah subsidy but it's costing taxpayers money... dun forget tax rate in Malaysia is fantastic, 28% for corp tax

  
  Aiya they also say economic theory wise if no subsidy there will be a tax reduction

  They are either very optimistic about the real world or I'm just a cynic

  And with Demand exceeding Supply and the farmers dun take subsidies with quotas they have to fulfill for the domestic market I don't see how prices won't sky rocket because it is free for all unless Supply exceeds Demand which is highly unlikely because most prob everyone will quit farming due to not being able to pay the cost of running a farm.

  And if they take away subsidy and other producing countries dun. Most prob they won't even bother because they can't compete

  It is more of the people's vote than economic theory there (I said wrongly at first)

  But I'm not going to bring any debate into here :D

  I haven't been able to sleep without having nightmares for a looooong time already!  Even when I sought unconventional help as a last resort a few months back I had dreams, not nightmares, for about five days, then it went back to square one!  This whole craziness started last July and I've been constantly having terrible-quality sleep every night since!!  I'm mentally and physically exhausted, and when I try to study, nothing gets in.

  Diet... hmm... breakfast is usually fruit juice, sometimes choc milk / soyabean milk with cereal / bun / home-made sandwiches.  Sometimes, with dau sar pia. Sometimes, just a chocolate or two.  :P

  Lunch / dinner will be either roasts from the canteen or takeaway noodles from different restaurants. 

  I have stopped taking supper already, thinking that that might have caused it, but the nightmares persist. 

  I'm starting to get so desperate I'm wondering if I should visit a Hypnotherapist!

  Or just worried about stuff

  Not really... things have improved tremendously for me since the start of the year and on the happiness scale, I've never felt better and more uppity since setting foot in Australia. 

  Hmm... I do have the added fear of spiders and everynight now, I do a quick check of my bedroom just to be sure they're not lurking and waiting to ambush me!    But then, even before I saw the Huntsman spiders in my house, I already had been having nightmares for a few months...

  Erm... scary movies, for a few weeks, I ran out of scary movies to watch!    But I still had nightmares.  Anyways, I've been watching scary movies for years and I was alright.

  Recent argument, yes.  In fact, a huge and very loud fight with a Filipino gay nurse who was going crazy and acting so incredibly childish I had to insist we settle it with the Team Leader in her office!    He got very personal and agitated, resembling some psych case that had gone off their psych meds, and just wouldn't stop shouting and screaming and saying stupid things like, "You're the worst and stupidest nurse in the entire ward, the whole ward knows it!" 

  He was given a very stern warning and had to apologise to me formally, in front of the Team Leader.    The TL later assured me not to think much about it because apparently, he's been sent to the office on more than three occasions because of similar issues with other staff.  Apparently, they are watching him because the newly-graduated nurses are feeling bullied by him. 

  But, that occured on Sunday.  My nightmares happened for months.

  Erm... nope.  But at AV's suggestion, I did try thinking happy and positive thoughts before going to bed, but all that did was give me a pastel-coloured dream of going to a huge cake shop having a difficult time choosing ONE cake before time's up to attend some event with the cake!    

  Biangz... stressed at work, stressed in sleep!
