I felt that today's lecture was fantabulous. Its about Perception.

Perception is based on individual's first impression. It may change over time or last for quite some time. Most humans believe in only what they see, while a fair number of the population on Mother Earth also believe in what they hear. After the lecture, i finally came to realise that perception may not be reality. What you see, may not be the truth.

An example i heard last semester, if you see a Phillipino in Singapore, most Singapore citizens would perceive her as a maid. But this may not be the truth, it isnt a must that all female Phillipinos are maids, is there?

Each and everyone of our perception and judgement are bias. That's how the phrase, "Never judge a book by its cover" came about. Im sure many of us have came across such situations whereby we make a misjudgement about someone based on first impression basis or on the particular person's appearance.

Stereotyping is definately an unfair and bias way of judging somebody. But in the real world, who doesnt stereotype? I cant deny that i do that too. Hence, the lecture taught me never judge someone based on the first impression and stuffs.

Even in my course itself, there are so many badmouthings and backstabbing, passing of rumours here and there from each and every's mouth. Im often perceived as a typical Singapore Ah lian, or worst, act ah lian and any other terrible names you can think of. Now tell me, how fair is that?

My coursemates, my friends. People that i do not wish to reveal as im afraid it may lead to more resentments and stuffs, (you know who you girls are) have definately been wrongly judged and accused by imbeciles and making life so damn difficult for her. What's the point at the end of the day? Is there some sort of self-achievement and satisfaction you idiots get after scorning another you do not like? How long can that feeling last? If you feel good after reprimanding and criticising the latter, you must be damn sick in the head. I'll strongly urge you to see a psychiatrist or attend Psychology CDS. It may help.

My point of this entry, is to tell all loyal readers of mine, never to judge someone based on your first impression. Have some flexibility in your life, it will be good to others as well as yourself. Also, perception need not be reality. Looking at different angles of things give you different conclusions. Seeing is believing, but seeing is not the truth. And of cos, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

And now, its your own perception of listening and doing what ive to say. There are no foes that can last for a lifetime. Open up your heart and let bygones be bygones. Sometimes it feels so heavy and difficult to keep an enemy in your heart. I feel so jaded.
