shopping list

today i feel abit discontented. this time because of work. actually there are some points that lead to it, but i guess i'll just briefly explain about one.

so my company is currently looking to improve its marketing process by, one of the ways, looking for a good software that can help us. whether it be analyzing, automating some processes. now, my take in this is that before we go out and seriously look for the available softwares in the market, first and foremost -- we need to know internally what we need.

and 'know what we need' shouldn't be vague. for me, we need to know what we need in detail - so that when we go out there and see all the cool things these softwares can do, we're not swayed by what's cool but we don't need.

just like when we go shopping, theoretically it's better to have a shopping list before we actually go shopping -- especially grocery shopping. why? so we don't forget to buy something we need and also to 'refrain' ourselves from buying things we don't really need. even with the list, the refraining part is sometimes hard to do.

so i guess the same theory should apply to whatever shopping spree we plan to do. we need a shopping list.

the hard part is influencing others to think like we do.

"My Personality"

This is the result I got from a quiz. Sounds pretty accurate.

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Your views on education

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

The right job for you:

You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

bingung

saya bingung. apa mau saya ya? mending kerja di indo ato di sg?

i've been deferring my thoughts on this to a later date. but i guess that later date is now. my apartment is on the verge of being rented out. so i have to like clear out my stuff from the apartment now. that's just a pity. most of the things are still new -- what to do with them? plus, what if in 1-2 months i change my mind and wanna look for a job here instead? decision decision.
