YES Pain YES Gain




‘No Pain, No Gain’ has been a rather common heard idiom that someone will say while encouraging others to be more open to challenges and try new things so that more opportunities and experiences can be gained.

This is ME from The Greatest Showman

          I have always been so open to new experiences that my life motto is “LAI!” to every challenge or rants my friends threw at me. “Lai” means ‘come on’ in Cantonese. Like, how I sometimes call out my poop in the toilet. The irrational and reckless Vivian will not consider the consequences and say YES to every fcuking dare people threw at me. This can lead to some really terrible consequences. Yet, I never did learn my lesson. Because of something I hold dear to, NO REGRET!
          I led a really adrenaline-rushing year in 2019, because that year the rebellious, egoistic, careless monster was controlling my whole body and soul. I had the wildest experiences that resulted a lot of disappointment, sadness, painstakingly tremendous horrifying experience in my 2019.
          But, there’s one thing I will tell people when I reflected it back. I told everyone that even though how hurtful and horrendous those incidents, I would proudly tell people that I have no REGRET.
Yes, I won’t regret every fcuking decision I made back then. It made me who I am today. Surely, what I decided for every turning point, I would still rationally think about all the possibilities and risk that it portrays. I only do something in the condition that no one will get hurt by the process of it. The result, whereas, everyone has to bear with it, as good choices can lead to bad results due to the unexpected changes happened in between.
          Daring, adventurous and fearless is my iconic personality. I have always been that nagging friend who keep bugging them to try new things. “Never try, never know.” This is the non-debatable rule how my world works.
You think bad, bad things come. You think good, bad things still come. You think nothing, but you DO SOMETHING, at least something good/bad will happen. The chances are you will eventually gain something out of the pain you deal with.
          Perception is important. No one tells you to think there is always unicorn or rainbow-themed castle be there waiting for you. You just need to suck the good out of the bad, even if it only has 0.00000000000000000000000000001%. It’s there. You just have to see through it.

Your Life Your Decison

Let´s say person A has a wealthy, rich family and lives a luxurious life since young. When he hits 22 years old, he is already the CEO of the company his family inherited to him. Meanwhile, person B lives a middle-range family, lives off by his parents´ hard work salary. When he hits 22 years old, he needs to juggle few jobs in order to sustain his living and his family´s too. Would you say that Person A is more successful than person B ? Person B is less luckier than person A? Person A can enjoy his life whereas person B can’t?           That’s your own perception. Your stereotype was haunting your mindset and point of view towards the people that may be living hardship of the life without your knowledge. Who says Person A never work hard from behind to upgrade his family’s business? Who says Person A doesn’t have stress and burden so that people won’t judge him like we all do? Who says Person B always save his m...

Be considerate 做个通透的人

Jason and Vivienne are couples. One night, they were chatting but somehow the guy had a bad working stressful day, so he treated the girl in a dismissive and passive way. The girl did not aware of it since they were having long distance relationship. They hung up instantly after the argument. The girl had some thoughts that wanted to find a better guy because she felt that she deserved better. But somehow, something came into her mind. She should be more understanding and considerate. The boy was working and probably had a rough time, but he still managed to squeeze his time to talk with her. She then realized it would be better to communicate and talk it out when both were in cooling heads. The day after, they were opening up the problem and talked in a reasonable and rational manner, that both came into a consensus to be more understanding into each other and tried to stand inside each other’s shoes. No Adidas? No Nike?? No Yeezy??? It's okay. Stand inside my shoes, so ...

React to My Past Overreaction over Seller's Threat

The other night, I was reliving the moment when I felt "threatened" by a random Lazada seller that I resort to multiple ways to try to bring them down. To set the scene, I have actually dug back up my previous post where I posted the incident on my Facebook feed: Back to now, my reaction seems a little bit... exaggerated and too-over. HAHA. Like I was seriously out of emotional control, and most importantly, my friend reminded me how "beyond" I had done back then just to get back to that seller. 1. I reported to the platform's customer service and made sure they understand loud and clear how this seller's response was out of depth and downright disrespectful. 2. I almost reported this incident to the police station, which now I find it ridiculously funny and nonsense. Looking back, the seller did refund me the money but I personally felt violated hence the "attempted revenge". 3. But, I DID report this incident to the related authority. Something a...
