The Village and a Bowl of Crappy Soup 1

Once upon a time, there was a great village chief who has a strange habit. The strange habit is to gather all the villagers every Monday morning to discuss on how to cook soup. You see, the village actually sells soup for a living, thus we pay utmost attention to it. Cooking soup is not easy and we have dedicated the art of cooking soup for more than 100 years. It is a tedious process and you will see why...

So every Monday morning, the villagers, all 30 of us will sit around a oval table. And then we will go through something call 'Minutes'. It is a detailed ancient historical record of who say what and what say who. I never quite understand why it was called 'Minutes' when the soup meeting actually took 'Hours'. I mean you need time to cook the soup right?

Every now and then the great village chief will ask around the oval table on what we should do with our lives, sorry I meant what new soup we should cook. That's because we have been selling the same vegetable soup for more than 100 years, yes it has make lots of money for the village but we need to cook up something new for whatever reason...

The village chief one day finally decides to put a big black pot in the middle of the table. Being an inclusive leader, she wants all the villagers to contribute to the whole soup cooking process. There is nothing more that she likes than to discuss cooking soup thoroughly because everyone has to love it! Being dedicated to soup making, the great village chief divided the villagers into the following,

1. Cooking Soup Team
- They are the ones that cook the soup
2. Packaging Soup Team
- They decides things as simple as the type of bowl to hold the soup
3. Analysing Soup Team
- They analyse things like how many litres of soup were sold in a day
4. Soup Distribution Team
- They think of new ways to bring the soup to you like a soup dispensing machine

How to find a girlfriend

I actually wanted to do my work... But as I stare at my computer screen I decided not to do my work because there is always tomorrow... And as I stare at the screen, I thought to myself, why don't I writing something constructive like "How to find a girlfriend?" If you think it's all personal opinion, then you are wrong because it is back up by solid research by accident...

As I am talking to Mr Zidane on MSN, he told me most of his colleagues at his workplace are in their 30s and there are no members of the opposite sex. His expression is "sian"... Have you ever had this feeling of "where are all the female species?" I know you are looking for them but do you know they are also looking for you? The trick is to know where are they congregating (not sure the meaning of this word but it matches the sentence).

Back to the solid research by accident... One fine day we were at a food court in Orchard, Ms Lily told Ms Piggy that there is a dating event "Scavenger hunt @ the zoo which costs $25". Ms Lily wanted to join but couldn't, so Ms Piggy asked another friend to join her. Lo & behold, the event was full and they searched for other dating activities at SDU. The female slots were full but the strange thing was, each event still has vancancies for male participants!

Conclusion: Demand for men exceeds demand for women


Next solid research by accident... One fine day again, as I was working in office (ok who is not working in office), a female colleague Ms Bubbles who is bubbly and attractive walk past my desk. Then she turn around (probably she found true love) and spoke to me. Somehow the conversation turn to a dating event she joined, guess what, it is the dating event "Scavenger hunt @ the zoo which costs $25". I looked at her in surprise, how can such an attractive lady be joining a dating event? Impossible... Incredible... But it's true. Next is a shocking revelation, she say the guys at dating event usually cannot make it but the girls are usually not bad... Ok you must be thinking "Singapore girls has high expectations". Don't go into this debate, I want you to concentrate on "at dating events......the girls are usually not bad".

Conclusion: Women at dating events are not bad and most of them are congregating there!


So the first thing I want you to do is to join any dating activity... Go out and give other people the opportunity to know you exist in this world, give others a chance to know you...

A New Beginning

I stared at the computer screen and decided that I should clear the cobwebs on my blog by just typing anything. October will be a new start... Maybe any day can be a new start to our lives... Why not make it now...
