shockinginsights: Reflection
http://freddyng.blogspot.com/2008/06/reflection.html
Saturday, June 28, 2008. N his autobiography The Wind Is My Mother. Bear Heart relays a lesson he as a child was presented by his uncle, Jonas Bear:. Jonas Bear once took me down to a pond and told me to look into it, asking, "What do you see? I see my reflection.". Put this stick in the water and stir up your reflection.". After I stirred it up, he asked, " Now what do you see? My face is all distorted.". Do you like what you see? I know that it's not supposed to look that way.". Make This Your Home.

a different perspective: #5 Attraction
http://thisisforsocialpsych.blogspot.com/2008/05/5-attraction.html
Thursday, May 1, 2008. Have you ever wonder what makes you like a person? Because he looks like Tom Cruise? He loves shopping like you do? Or he knows how to repair your computer because you can't do it? I'd say it all matters. Looks play the very important FIRST role. Then we have the birds of a feather flock together following opposite attracts or vice versa. It doesn't matter which come first but it'll occur somehow. These are just some things that I'd say start our relationship and strengthen it.

a different perspective: #3 To strive to be like Sienna or glad that you're not Minnie Mouse on loose

Tuesday, April 8, 2008. 3 To strive to be like Sienna or glad that you're not Minnie Mouse on loose. Many a times we'll compare ourselves to others. From what I can remember, as young as in primary school, I will compare myself with my peers, how they had done in the exams, what kind of toys they have and up till now, what kind of bags, shoes they carried. And maybe, few months down the road, how much salary they are drawing. At least they makes me feel better right? But mum had my intention in mind....

Monday, April 14, 2008. 4 Normative social influence among friends. Some of you might have heard this story from me. But as John was going through today's lecture, this emotional thoughts ran through my mind. Normative social influence. I had this bunch of close friends way back from secondary school. We were very close to a point that we called each other sisters. We used to do all things together, all six of us. But as time passes, we changed and drifted apart. I have my own thinking and should decide ...

a different perspective: #2 A gift for a friend but never given.
http://thisisforsocialpsych.blogspot.com/2008/04/gift-for-friend-but-never-given.html
Wednesday, April 2, 2008. 2 A gift for a friend but never given. I've bought this bracelet for a friend of mine, after knowing her predicament. It was meant to be a lucky charm, when she's all alone in Hong Kong, fighting with the bad. As I was choosing the bracelet, I fell in love with it. I really like the bracelet a lot. I'd buy one for myself if my budget allows, but sadly no. I could have change my behaviour. By getting her address in Hong Kong and send it to her. Hahain a twist of luck (or whatever...

http://ling-socialpsychology.blogspot.com/2008/03/conformity-seen-in-students-securing.html
Monday, March 17, 2008. Conformity seen in students securing a place in local university. Therefore, despite having straight As for their A-level, junior college (JC) students attempting to get into a specialized field such as the medical field are increasing their CVs with volunteer work, competitive sports and co-curricular achievements (CCA). Good point. it appears that the real driving force behind increased competition is this: we're simply driving each other on. March 28, 2008 at 3:03 AM.
