Tried to be strong and calm but deep inside my heart I wished that it don’t have to be this way. Great times were spent together and random unplanned events made things even better. Not many words can describe what we have with each other. I could only say that it is sacred. I thank God for everything he has given me and pray that he will not forsake me.

Being a student at NUS, living in Far far away land and trying to earn extra cash by teaching and freelancing is definitely not an easy task. Especially for a guy that can’t wake up till he gets a good 8hr sleep.

Now I really need to learn and organize myself. Honestly there is no point for guys like me to have an organizer coz we will probably take it for granted unless situation forces us to follow the plans set out for us in the day. Like how things are for me now. An organizer is to help me be at the right place at the right time as everything in it are important.

That’s why I treasure the little moments I get to spend with my family, partner and friends. Bless my partner who is understanding and does not pressure me to spend all my time with her during her summer break. I really appreciate her visiting me at school just to have lunch with me.

Praying hard that things will only look brighter for all of us.

With love,
Dean Yusoff

Whether or not I get a Computing job is secondary, keeping in mind that there are a lot of Indian Post Graduates looking for IT jobs in Singapore’s market(or in fact the rest of the world too except for India itself), but I have my hopes up quite high. Well technically, I am still cheaper than them. Correct me if I am wrong, but according to my calculations, Singaporeans are cheaper and less of a hassle to employ compared to the “foreign talents”.

Most of these so called foreign talents will be offered an Expatriate’s package which may include accommodation, transport(at times) and other misc. expenses a company needs to cover just to employ them. Why a company rather employ and pay the Expats much more is still a mystery to me. Unless they want a person that’s willing to work 18hrs a day and will not have any other commitments besides their job. As if the non-Chinese in Singapore did not have enough problems finding a job in their so called home in the first place. Requirement for like more than 50% of the jobs out there, Bilingual with Chinese or at times, simply Chinese preferred. I’ve not seen them using “Chinese working environment” yet but whatever it is, it’s already hard enough to look for a job here in Singapore already.

On another note, it’s hard to judge whether PAP, People’s Action Party – Singapore’s current ruling party, suck or not until there is an opposition party ruling. But the problem is, I’ve not been won over by any speeches or promises by any opposition party still. All that I’ve seen is flaming of PAP which even Taxi Drivers can do. Seriously, there are no politics that are clean. Look at United States of America for example. How much does an American president get per month? How much do they spend during their campaigns? Do the figures add up? And they are currently the Superpower! It’s good that Singapore don’t have to go through all the drama from the Campaigns like in India and USA.

And another thing I’ve noticed about Singaporeans is that the majority enjoy complaining (especially when they could do it anonymously), but they don’t do anything to make any situation better. Or do they even know how to make it better? Then they will blame the government for anything that is not well for the country (whether or not it is a global catastrophe), but ask them on their ideas or thoughts on fixing it, they usually don’t have any. Then rebuttals like, “We voted for them to do that job, why should we be thinking?” or “It’s a monopoly, what we say don’t matter. The government won’t listen.”

So start your own party or get your voice heard by joining them to make a difference.

Ok if you are lost and don’t know who am I siding with, I am not leaning on any sides. I just dislike the nature of Singaporeans complaining when they can’t make the situation better themselves. Are you going to sue the government or the one in charge if you slipped and fell at the side of the road by stepping on a pebble that may have originated from the hacking of the pavement of the roadworks about 10 metres away? If you don’t like the way things are handled, don’t just complain anonymously, go make a difference.

Respect,

Deen Yusoff

Captured as Image as Arabic font not supported here.

That is my name written in Arabic font. Not that difficult to write actually. I just typed my name in ABCs at http://www.yamli.com/ and it automatically converted my name into arabic text.

And if you are wondering, my name is suppose to mean something like, “Praiseworthy of prostrating to faith (in worship)” son of “Praiseworthy for the Lord increases”.

Kinda too much isn’t it? But I like my name. Though it is a mouthful.

Well, that’s why I just introduce myself as Deen Yusoff (Faith as the lord increases). Whatever that is suppose to mean, as I feel that most names don’t make sense when you try to get the real meaning from of the names.

Full of myself,

Deen Yusoff
