Dawn Leng + Dementia

This is hilarious.

Out of mere boredom, I googled myself just to see how many other "Dawn Leng" are there in the universe, and for a hint of the kind of world they inhabit.

Apparently, there are not that many around...at least not in cyberspace.

Then I came across this sentence, "Hello! This Dawn Leng here...I am too lazy to apply for a Blogger account thus chose to post this "anonymously. I read this in yesterday's Lianhe Zaobao' supplement..."

Another "Dawn Leng" right here in Singapore?!

This I got to see!

I clicked on the site and that sentence turns out to be a comment posted to a female blogger.

On and on I read, and there's stuff like "Berlin" mentioned in it, which intrigued me, so I ploughed on.

And then suddenly, it all came back to me - and you would probably have guessed it by now, it was posted by yours truly!

I can't believe how preachy I sound...but then again, it sounds like me! ; )

Here is the entry:

"Hello! This Dawn Leng here...I am too lazy to apply for a Blogger account thus chose to post this "anonymously".

I read this in yesterday's Lianhe Zaobao' supplement: Berlin was completely ravaged and devastated during the World War II – but that also opened up the opportunity for her to be rebuilt in various whole new ways.

Like the quote you placed in this blog article, success is never final and failure is never fatal. A loss of opportunity might just be the thing that opens up new avenues of possiblities for you – possibilities that never once occurred to you or might have occurred to you but never taken seriously as you were busy being stuck somewhere.

Now that life is temporarily free and easy for you, you can afford some time to really think about what you want or where you intend to head.

Don't be in too much of a hurry, but be careful not to drag your feet subconsciously too. As long as you are fully aware of what you are doing (and fully aware that you are really NOT finding excuses for yourself), you shouldn't have to bother with others' "loafer" comments. Sometimes, a really good break is really essential to moving on, but I still maintain this – as long as you are really sure you know what you are doing.

According to the article, Berlin is today the very unique, creative and bustling capital of Germany. It is a capital that is very different to the concepts that most people have of capitals – not everyone would be in love with her, but those who can appreciate what she has to offer, falls truly, madly and deeply in love.

This is the lesson the Berlin article has taught me...doom is really the beginning of boom (if you possess the right attitude and regularly check that the attitude in question is indeed still moving you in the direction you want), and that if you intend to be different, you will have to be prepared to deal with the fact that you will invite controversy (not necessarily in a good way all the time), and not everyone will love you (but those who do truly do).

And last but not least, even if your so-called chosen direction is "unpredictable and different", you still have got to know exactly what you are doing (even if it may seems to others you are just making a mad dash to nowhere).Heehee sorry if I got too preachy...hahaha ignore me if it sounds totally irrelevant to you...I am just triggered off by how nicely your current situation fits in with the lesson I learnt from the Berlin article and thought it would be nice to share it with you."

Hahaha.
