Team Dian. With Ridzuan, Masami n Chris, tis team was ready to work for Dian n win. Masami, despite being quiet, was giving herself too. Chris was great. Of course tis being his "comfort zone", he would naturally be at his best. But he din hav to, n yet he did. I love Ridzuan! He's such a nice, helpful n committed person. Din c it b4. Overall, Team Dian was a team working together. Guess the only obvious hiccup was the missunderstanding with all the celebrities in the first point of communication. The celebrities were doing them a favour n they really weren't obliged to anything. They js want to c sincerity, good event planning n generally be comfortable w the whole situation (or for some, things tat could benefit them ie materialistically or mere publicity).
Team Ain. People in Team Ain generally giv questions i/o answers. The guys were there to sabo i/o giving their "bestest". Eventho Jenn din go the extra miles (which she really din hav to anymore) at least she had the heart not to create headaches to Ain. JL was as usual could not be seen. But YW was js too much! Yeah he was trying to flaunt his capabilities during his days of his own battle, but now tat he's supposed to be helping Ain... Frankly speaking, if Rumah Hope could only agree with giving 8 kids out for the event day, then it is not a "question" nor a problem, rite? U js accept it, deal with it n plan from there. The part abt telling ppl to breath in etc was so uncalled for. KY should giv her a break too. The thing abt letterhead, u should go n find all the facts first b4 posing a decisive question to the boss. Tat way even if she still thinks it's a measly problem n tat u could deal with it at ur end, at least u coud already decide liao with all the facts/options in hand. Calling like tat was as tho u dun want to handle it n nak cuci tangan je.
N the brand sen. assoc. person for Adeedas really had issues. Since ur company is offering to giv back to society, u should be telling wat u're ready to offer, i/o shooting ppl in broad daylite. The way she talked was as tho ppl owe her big time. Did ppl came begging her for doing charity? Ur company is providing sponsorship so the thing u could do is BE NICE, n not tarnish the image of ur company.
Despite all the obstacles, it was good tat good things happened too. Ain was good in providing entertainment n so ppl were very happy. N she knows tat when ppl r happy, they will put in more effort for her. Plus, the free transportation service tat she'd gotten.

The Firm Season 2
It was abt creating awareness n Jennifer's idea was exactly wat was needed in the task screened 4th oct. Chris was uncalled for for being, as usual, going his own pace, n also i/o providing support he complaints, eg abt the attention given for handling the media. It was not intended to be a fun fair in the first place. Moreover, a team player do not js walk off n "lepak" out of the venue n "berpeluk tubuh" no matter how disagreeable u r with the whole thing. But then again we all know he was bound to do smtg like tat. Do u ever c Boon Yew doing such a thing??
It was either Kian You or Chris. I guess egoistic plus promising non-feasible things plus not being able to "bring smtg to the table", as Ain put it, were the reasons for KY's elimination. Cjris was safe again.
Last week saw a shocking turn. Instead of 1, 2 were ousted.
We all know Jennifer had been damn focused all the while. She comes up with logic, feasible n bright ideas (her ideas will not create any ??? hovering over anybody's head), she knows wat to prioritise, how to plan, she could work, she could deliver - basically she tops them all. But the question is, why is she eliminated?
Jennifer brought the team to success whether as a team player or as the leader. She had not once put herself in any difficult situation nor did she once created any reasons to be ever doubted. Then there it comes. The ONE time tat her idea failed her (the objective was to generate as much income for 1 particular day, regardless of being creative or not, as long as the $$$ earned is the highest) was in tis task. If she is not sacked becos of tis, when will be the best time to sack her, as there is a high possibility tat there'll be no more instances like tis one.
Could it be due to the quota reason? Joel won The Firm in season 1, so it had to be someone from the different race. Tis is a strong reason to explain why Ain was invited back as the quantity need to be more. Another point to ponder would be tat Jennifer was very vocal n defensive while not humble at all when talking to Tengku (should hav at least admitted ur wrongs upfront to ur future boss, rite? I mean think of it tis way: if u're hiring, wouldn't u want to hire some1 who is humble enough to admit her fault when u tell her straight in the face?)
And we all doubt Chris times n times again. Itupun he had been given sooooo many chances to change his style n prove us tat he could be mature. One thing abt Chris is tat he does not argue back in the boardroom so none of the corporate leaders nor Tengku had any personal dislike towards him. Chris is not dumb. He is very fast in thinking n draws up conclusions instantly. But he is js not The One. And we all need ppl like tis, n a very subtle n play safe type like Dian to be in the finals. And when The Strong one is ousted, it is easier to fire the regular ones. I dunno, but i expect Ain to win now...?
Hmmm....Ain could be defensive at times n she does role her eyes in the boardroom a lot. She also throws her hand everywhere when explaining smtg. It does not reflect profesionalism. Dian, on the other hand, handles things very calmly n she does not over-defend herself until the extent of hardselling herself (think YW n KY). Both r the type who thinks in the box n not anticipative, but one comes too strong while the other is very subtle whom is manageable. And when u look at the past season, Tengku likes some1 tat he could control so in saying tat, Dian stands a chance to win too.
So there it is. The 2 dalils why Jennifer could not win, as much as how ritefully n rationally it is. Guess tis is the real world. All's fair in love n war.

VKLiew, again!
The Borneo Post today shows a pic of my fav guy VKLiew. Why, I hav no idea he is capable of smilling - let alone grinning WIDELY! Must be 1 of those days tat u wake up js not being urself. In tis case a jerkish sulky rude arrogant b*tch waking up as Uncle Jolly. The NST also printed a pathetic pic of his.
Act of courage n responsibility u say? It is the responsibility of a representative of the people to set a good example to his people. Ponder on tat. Act on tat.
P/S: Looking at the doughnut i/o the hole, Lim GE says it best ;-P
