In my sleep, i usually would not be able to recall much about the dreams. Most of the time, there wasn't any dreams at all. Today i had a dream. I dreamt that i was with a group of people, with all around us, are vertical(but not directly vertical)congregations of different breed of wildlife animals, all seated around. Somehow, the setting was that all of us were calm, lazing and somehow tired. This totally includes the wildlife animals. Beside our congregation were the lions. Up next to the lions were the raccoons, and the furthest were some animals, which they seem like wolfs or dogs to me initially, but instead of them lazing around like us, i could see a couple of their movements.
Being beside the lions, i was a little perturbed at first and whether we would be of any danger. I asked my group of people to shift to the furthest, as it could be safest to be at the furthest point, near to the wolves, and far away from the lions. But one of them(someone whom i am able to recognise) told me that it is better to stay on where we were, and he pointed out to the furthest that those were the wolves. I somehow thought in my heart, "wolfs aren't that dangerous, as compared to the lions beside us?" In the end i just stay put. That was the end of my dream. Indeed, the dreams were really vivid. I could almost recalled this scenario like a small portion of movie.
I woke up in the early morning before work, and checked the Dream Dictionary which i had bought so many years ago. Here are some of my finding:
Animals: To see wild animals in your dream is generally a good omen pertaining to business, but the interpretation depends on their attitude; if they were calm, your affairs will prosper, but if they attacked you(or each other), you can expect some reverses. See also Lion, Dog, Cat, Bull, Cow, Horse, etc.
I checked the Lion: A lion featured in your dream is a symbol of social distinction and/or business leadership. If you heard the lion roar, you are likely to have to cope with jealousy from someone close to you. A friendly lion cub is a forecast of a new and valuable friendship. See also Animals.
Then i checked the Raccoon: Raccoon fur or articles made from it predict that you will find a new talen or hobby which will prove profitable as well as enjoyable. Otherwise, see Animals.
So i checked the last one, which is the Wolf: This animal is, as expected, a symbol of hard times or financial embarrassment, so pull in your belt, unless you managed, in your dream, to kill it or drive it away, in which case it predicts success in spite of all obstacles.
It seems to me that my dream is overall, not a bad one. Lion is a good symbol of social distinction and /or business leadership, and there was no roar from the lion. The raccoon were just next the lions, while the wolves were at a distance away, and furthest. It was a good thing in the dream that the friend has asked us not to go over that side, because he said that side were the congregation of the 'wolves'. So in a way in life, I thought i could have somehow avoided hardships or am far away from financial embarrassment, which in the dream the lions and the raccoons were quite vertically congregated next to us. If the wolves were to be able to reach us(me and my group of people), they would have to go through the area of the Raccoons, and be able to pass through the lions, before reaching us. That was the picture proximity in my dream.
Such an interesting and intriguing dream, i thought. Nevertheless, as we dream, the mystique behind those dreams sometimes does want to tell us something, something that God may one to relate to us, in an unconventional, yet subtle manner.

Building our pipelines.
As one says, we need to build up our pipelines. But usually one needs to be patience, and try his way constantly to move forward, and upward. In a career start, it will could take someone to have 8 to 10 jobs, before stabilising permanently in one job. But no matter what job, I think satisfaction is the most important. Job satisfaction and good collegues and bosses will likely make you stay as long as you can. But ultimately after staying too long, and when one has no lack of savings or spending which could last for some time being, one would eventually resign to seek a more meaningful life. A case where one resigned from his career for 30 over years, and then went to a poorer country to teach english has been heard. I am very sure there were more cases like this. Sometimes heaven has a plan for us, sometimes, heaven may give us the liberty to choose.
I choose to build the pipeline of career following the normal years, and accumulating the exeperience, as this is beyond my control. However, I can accelerate my academic status within the years while i build my career pipeline with accumulating years of work experience. Accelerating academic status is under my control, therefore i choose to hit the 'Accelerate button'. While performing normally or nothing deemed out of the norm from my daily routine career job, i am taking chances of life long learning, continuously taking up courses and workshops etc, despite having completed my degree.
The true fact will be that taking up courses could as well be my hobby. As i am starting my CIDTT course, i am also gradually taking the ACTA(Adv Cert in Training & Assessment) modules. When my CIDTT completes early next year, there will come my MEd. The MEd programme may be my last academic career path to a master degree. If there were to be a DBA or PHD, it will need to take my natural ability to decide at much later part of the years, because achieving all these ultimately needs to serve good purposes.
In my point of taking the CIDTT, it can help enhance me as a private teacher and trainer to conduct any forms of training, beyong academic, beyond skilled. It could also be sports and martial arts. CIDTT can be opposed to a Diploma in Education, or even a Post Graduate Diploma in Education offered by the NIE, MOE. CIDTT = Cambridge International Diploma for Teachers and Trainers is a strong private qualification offered by the University of Cambridge international examination body, which deals with our O'level/A'level, allows one to get into the Master Degree in Education. However a CIDTT needs to be coupled with a Degree not relevant with Education, to be accepted.
Having an MEd, I would prefer to look into teaching and learning, or development of course syllabus and curriculum, or even lecturing freelance in future. Doing a job that could interact, nuture, and touches the lives of many, brings joy to my natural being. However certain goals needs that pipeline to be built, before the goals are reached. This is call the 'Process', and the objectives to reach the goals.
As I could plan certain thing, i may not foresee other hidden situations. Could i see that within two years of working in the same company, i will be able to rise up to a Senior executive, or even an assistant manager?
After finishing my Master of Education in mid 2013, will my rank not balance with my qualification that need to compel the company to move me up, if it was to be rightfully mine? If it does happened, it will have to. However if i am already a senior executive by then, the chance of an assistant manager at least, should be. Otherwise, i should jolly well accumulate my years and move on to a better position elsewhere, with better pay cheque, of course!
I am also getting married to my beloved girlfriend estimated to be from late 2013 to early 2014, if possible.
Nevertheless, plans could be plans, but the ultimate plans for us lies from the above. One could wish or pray for the above to grant us his blessings, or else he could change our thoughts and offer a different, but better alternatives.

> Stay put, but grab your ready bag and be prepared to evacuate immediately when advised to do so by the authorities.
>If you think that it is dangerous to remain at home, dial 999 for the police (giving yourt name and address) and evacuate immediately , moving to higher ground away from open areas, streams and storm drains.
>Tune in to the radio for updates from the authorities.
If you are in a Vehicle:
>Be alert to signs of flooding.
>Do not drive around barricades as they are put up for your safety.
>If the vehicle stalls in rapidly rising waters, abandon it immediately and try to get to higher ground.
>Do not walk through moving water as a mere 15cm high moving water can make you fall; if you must, use a stick to check the firmness of the ground in front of you and try to walk in stagnant water.
>Dial 995 for the SCDF for 999 for the Police if help is needed.

My Thoughts, as a Mass Communicator.
Coming end of April, the heat is on the election. This round, almost 90% of Singapore will be voting on the polling day, while only one GRC, which is the Tanjong Pagar GRC, led by our founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, has a walk over. Good job on that!
My parent ruler has been ruling for so long. I see my sector of the empire being upgraded within the last decade which increases the value of my living sector). This has shown results, although not consistent, but gradual results, has proven that we should continue to render great support to the parent ruler.
In fact, I will continue to support the parent ruler(with my first time having the chance of vote, since the past 2 decades), and continue to see his actions for us, because he is still the most powerful, proven and established one.
Only when things seems to get out of hand, or have reached an impasse, should we seek other alternatives, i thought.
________________________________________________
I analyse how the structure of the government work. I may be right, or i may be close. But this is how i thought:
1)Umbrella Government - Or call the "mother government" is PAP by herself.
2)Below the Umbrella are the sons and daughters (All PAPs), and some member of the public(Oppositions), to curb and control problems or issues that may arise through the ruling from the sons and daughters.
3)The oppositions are all pre-designed by the "mother government" to keep a check and balance on her children.
4)In this aspect, the sons and daughters will still have more benefits and exclusive rights than the members of the public (Oppositions).
________________________________________________
Although i do not deny that the mother government sometimes do have flaws in her ruling, that has not affected us tremendously. We should continue to support them, as far as we could.
With the nations being built up over the decades, we should have the thoughts of appreciation. Let us be forbearing and not let a couple of flaws or mistakes heightened in our hearts.
I have foreseen that even if a member of the public has ever won, they would have face unforeseen problems and issues that may arise through them. They will not have enough budgets and financial power to serve the community, given that the exclusive rights are given to the sons and daughters, which make the children more distinctive, as compared to the member of the public. The member of the public will also need to have more seats to gain enough financial support to the people.
In an annotation of simile, it is like being a member of a country club, you definitely have more privilege and benefits, and exclusive rights as compared to a member of the public. So you can choose a member of the country club to help you get into their swimming pool or enjoy their facility as a guest, than to get the member of the public to get you in as guest, which you might not even be eligible.
The government GCT, focus on the economy and caused the high cost of living because it helps in building the nation's GDP, helping it to grow stronger, and allowing the country to sustain well and tough. In this aspect, there could be a trade off of people's welfare in general. But this does not cause big issues to majority living in Singapore.
The good thing is, with the surplus, dividend growth was given back to the people, while they still have a good amount of strong reserve at hand. With good fiscal and strong economic focus supersede other rights, such as first class citizenships, there is always a trade off in the aspect.
However, I think Singaporeans are living "Ok", therefore not much woes, at least to me.
The manufacturing industry is also the vital root to productitivy, and a vital sustainability to the economy.
Compare to the manufacturing industry, the service sector is also a must because with the nature of the job, and the entry level of requirement necessary for the job, the lesser Singaporeans, and most foreigners will be happier to work in these line, for lower pay, as more Singaporeans are getting higher educated, and expect higher salary and better jobscopes.
I am only able to see that the standard of people in all aspects will rise, with years to come, so we will continue to aspire and strive not just forward, but upward, towards our individual success!
Let us built an beautifully imperfect government!

But i need something right now, which can unlease my potential, and allow me to sustain myself in life.
