I don't want to be a pie!
Chicken Run the movie?
Caught a few scenes on tv after the mother's day dinner. I still remembered the first time i caught it was on a SIA flight to Australia for an overseas training during the army days.
I actually wanted to watch the Apprentice on Sunday nights.
Yup... liked to see how the contestants take on the projects and how they fight in out in the board room to defend themselves to be the ultimate padawan of Donald Trump.
Somehow seeing them argue it out to stay in the game, its just like in the chicken run movie. No chicken wants to land up as a chicken pie. That is why the chickens fought hard to learn to fly. The fact is chickens can't fly. But they were determine to do something to their lives and not submit to fate. Hmmm maybe blindly doing something they never will achieve is foolish. But who has not been foolish before. i guess everyone has done foolish stuff in order to achieve somethings before. Sometimes you may not even know its foolish while doing it, just like chickens that wanted to fly. But at least its better to choose to do some foolish stuff than to choose to just sit and wait for things to just happen.
If we want to have something we've never had, we need to do something we've never done.
Its definitely not wrong to fight for survivial. In this episode of the Apprentice, it was the filtering of the final 4 to the final 2. The final 4 had to go through a series of interviews with some of the top executives in business who have to report back to Trump on their impression of the contestants. Kelly been chosen for the guys was an expected choice. Then it came to the two gals, Sandy and Jennifer.
Its a hard fight in the board room. The gals defended themselves hard, selling themselves while putting down the other, stating their best reasons to be in the final spot. If i was the one in the room to argue my point to be in the final spot, i would definitely fail miserably compared to the two gals. In the first place my engrish oso not tat powderfool, maybe if its based in singlish or hokkien still got more chance. In the end jennifer, a lawyer came on tops.
I seriously felt that Sandy was a better choice to work for Trump than Jennifer. If Trump had watched most of the episodes on tv himself, guess he would know as well. Especially the episode when Jennifer stole the credit from Ivana (one other team member), of a successful project for Levi's. That episode really showed off her prowess of no action, talk only, uniquely NATO ability.
Guess lawyers are always good at defending themselves. Even Trump said tat she was better to defend herself at the end. That is why the choice of her than Sandy. But hey, aren't lawyers taught to be able to talk and defend themselves?
Sometimes it really makes me detest people who are good at talking only. Its not easy for people to see your hard work and capablities, guess hard work takes time to tell and capablities are to be demostrated. But sometimes we just have to face the fact that its these people who are able to talk better who are able to get things done their way.
Being expressive or good at talking?
Expressive, being able to state what you want, your opinion, how you let others understand your ideas.
Good at talking, being able to convince people to fork out tonnes of money to buy something worthless.
Sometimes i feel the learning process that we are brought up fails to try to teach us to be expressive. How often we are asked to keep quiet in class? Being asked to stand outside the class for talking in class. How our names will be written on the blackboard and be punished by the teacher for talking. Guess part of being expressive is to ask and question. To speak out our ideas? Guess at our youths we were already hampered to do so.
Or maybe being expressive cannot be learnt from books? Hmmm, ya maybe from watching ang mohs argue it out in Apprentice. Maybe only...
Still lots to learn, my young padawan...
