before i continue to write this post, suddenly i just felt "speechless" about my today's happening after overloading with various type of information when i was not "productive" by doing something useful.
after having some cereal as my breakfast, i make a move from hostel to attend the Strategic Marketing Management (SMM) lecture at Adsetts center.
well, i was wrong to think that last week was the last chapter for "Branding" because there was one more chapter to go after today's topic was about Relationship Marketing.
somehow i was agree that the secret to a successful business is to giving or contribute more to the customer and also beyond their expectation just like the wine bottle story shared about a customer accidentally broke the wine bottle when she arrived home but the shop refund her with the same amount of broken wine bottle.
however, it was "irony" to understand that how people judge others was based on a person's value (materialistic?) as the objective of business is to identify "Very Important Person" (VIP) and treat them differently by giving more because they was the main contribution of company's profit.
well, i just feel that actually this is the same theory about why employee will "brush their boss shoes" or why beautiful girl would be more interest to entertain or marry rich guy because it might be true that what people want was to hope to get some "value" in return. (sorry if anyone get offended since it was purely my very own "imaginative thought" and i might be wrong for saying that, who know i would end up doing it in future?)
after the lecture end, we went to attend the SMM seminar class early and the lecture explain about the pass year examination with "Borderline, 3rd/2nd" and first class student answer.
seriously i was feeling afraid to think about it since there is 11 more days to go for our final examination.
actually my major concern for the final examination was i might not be able to write the essential key point to answer the question with different kind of strategic marketing concept model.
after that, we make a move around 12.45pm and went to Happy Cook restaurant that near to London Road Sheffield to try out the stone bowl meal dishes as there was a promotion discount.
upon arrived there, there was quite a lot of people which partly because of the lunch special promotion for Hot Chinese Buffet that cost £4.95 as shown below.
anyways, below was the detailed information about Happy Cook Indoor BBQ, Chinese Hot Pot, Korean BBQ, Stone Bowl Meal restaurant in Sheffield. (喜洋洋伦敦路中西式自助火锅和韩国烧烤餐馆)

overall the the stone bowl meal there was nice to eat with a free ice-cream for £4.90 (after £2 discount promotion) but it is quite expensive to eat there if convert back to Malaysian ringgit.
somehow i just feel myself seems to be so "rich" to keep eating outside although i was planning to save some money for my upcoming days. (guess this is call as hypocrite?)
on the other hand, i feel it was true that how others people can earn so much money by playing currency exchange (FOREX) because if you had look of the Great Britain Pound (GBP) currency, the exchange rate was for Malaysia Ringgit was £1 to RM4.70 back in month of May 2013 but now it had cost RM5.20+ (Website statistic is RM5.13772) for the local currency exchange shop in UK.
for example, if you able to persuade people to borrow you RM1,000,000 and buy it all at RM4.70 per GBP during May, you would probably earn RM106,000 if you sell it back now at RM5.20+ right?
therefore this can prove that why some people can so easily earn money in Forex although it is quite subjective because who would really be able to predict the future.
however, you can observe and get some common sense to understand why the currency rates increased when a lot people spend money in UK or the new birth of the new prince Royal baby rumors.
finally i arrived back home at 3.10pm and received the 8GB SD card that i bought from eBay as below.
after some moment, i felt quite tired and went to take a quick nap.
the moment i woke up again was 7.30pm and went to my friend's house to cook some noodle as my dinner.
upon reach home, i just see some news as it was quite sad to read the "Syrian chemical strike" news and if you understand Chinese, you can watch the video as below or the link >>> Here.
honestly, i do feel "guilty" about myself again in some ways because their problem was about whether can continue to stay alive or not for tomorrow while myself seems to be keep "self pity/emo" about how hard life is as i seems to be not appreciate much that i am still living despite all the problem that arise.
besides, i was quite "down" when read the "20 Things You Need to Stop Doing" when the first one about "Stop Doubting Yourself" seems to be referring to myself because "If you don’t believe in yourself, nobody will. Success starts in your mind, and if all you’re doing is putting yourself down and predicting failure, it’ll become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead of doubting yourself, think positively. Not only will you be happier and more successful, you’ll spread it to everyone around you" that is quite true.
before i end my post, i would like to share the Chan Fong "大城心事" sharing story again with the recording podcast link as shown below.

1) 第一位：May～她自从生了女儿之后就一直很想自杀，又经常和丈夫吵架，原因是因为丈夫希望她能把从远在外坡和外婆（既她母亲）同住的孩子接送回来一起住，其实她很担心自己的孩子将来的身心发展。【陈峰建议她，可以紧接着有学校假期的时候安排过去和孩子见见面相处，另外是应该尝试多学习如何跟老人家相处】>>> Here.
2) 第二位：黄先生～不知道是谁一直苦苦哀求他家人他的公司两年了，他不知道对方这样做的目的到底是为了照顾大家的利益还是纯粹为了个人的好处。【陈峰大哥听完他之前的说明后，觉得他在很多方面都是处理很得很好，而且很脚踏实地】>>> Here.
3) 第三位：阿平（上个星期打过电话进来的）～他想告诉陈峰大哥，他决定在家里自己做了一些新口味的面包或蛋糕然后摆在老板的店里卖，老板没有拒绝他的要求但是也没有答应，可能是双方的利益和条件方面还没完全达成共识；他想问陈峰大哥有什么更好的应对措施。【陈峰大哥建议他应该试着把自己所要求的利益稍微再降低一点，以符合目前的环境和大家的利益考量和需求】
4) 第四位：Jessie～她说她弟弟患有强迫症，曾经看过好几个心理医生但是情况也没有什么改善甚至做任何事情也都无法坚持太长久。【陈峰大哥觉得还有某个部份或许是这个病患的自信心太低，需要接着更强大的辅导才能够渐渐获得加以改善，陈峰大哥也不能太确定是否回答完整，比较这是涉及关系到心里医生的专业部份】Part 3 + 4 >>> Here.
5) 第五位：Jannice（28岁/ 单亲妈妈/ 育有一名女儿）～目前已注签名册结婚但是未行华人婚礼，但是老公却在这个时候信息她说很想离婚（对方想离婚的理由是想和初恋情人重新复合），甚至还直言说离婚后连女儿都不要了。【陈峰大哥和她做了一个一个对比之后，已经很显然她的这位丈夫并不是一位好男的人。离婚得早其实并不是一件坏事；怪只怪自己当时没有戴眼镜识人（但是也奉劝她不要在女儿面前说她爸爸的坏话以避免制造下一代的怨恨）】>>> Here.
6) 第六位：单亲妈妈分享的经验 >>> Here.
7) 第七位：阿宏（32岁/ 装修工头）～他是在新加坡工作的大马人大约是两年多，但是已经换了三份工作，他想知道是他自己个人的问题还是公司的问题。【陈峰大哥对于他的问题的回答：是他个人对于工作的态度问题，并且叫他需要认真检讨一下】>>> Here.
8) 第八位（最后一位）：Apple（22岁）～她也是一个已经和先生注册结婚将近两年了，但是拖到现在还未正式行华人婚礼。>>> Here.

after spending my "precious time" listening to all those story, i just can comfort about myself that "it is just my time haven arrive yet" in term of relationship but the "love" seems to be fade away in our generation as there will be nothing call as "eternal love" because you can be in a relationship with any girl just in a timing, place and other related factors.
in addition, life is full of possibilities and the girl that you like might be having a great time with her new partner now while you're just "sadding" alone there that is totally useless to think about.
over time, i had saw my own blogging intention has been changing from time to time as i was trying to tell the whole world that there is a guy who "emo" for "something" if you ever saw my top page views stat as below.
frankly speaking, i do wish someone can share about their whole SHU experience in UK so that i would save the $$ but i had found none over time.
however, this concept is just like watching a movie without paying $$ by downloading it as i believe most of the people who had downloaded a movie will not watch the same movie in cinema right?
in the end, judging whether worth or not to come UK was quite subjective because different people have different experience.
later on, we just celebrate a friend birthday as it does recall me back some memories when we celebrate at Wow Box Sungai Wang last year.
then i just continue to edit some report and would be sleep late tonight.
in conclusion, i realized that knowing or analyze too much information seems to be just making a person feel more stress as there was no exact answer for certain things.
