Job analysis...maybe it will useful in the near future....

Ki System

Natal Year number: 9
A cheerful soul, Meiyi is an attractive individual whose humour and charm can inspire others to follow her ideas. Although her active brain can generate many bright ideas, she cannot be guaranteed to finish one idea before starting on the next. Although money tends to burn a hole in her pocket, Meiyi will always maintain the impression that all is well.

Natal Month number: 3
A generous and kindly spirit, Meiyi's quick brain is inclined to master only superficial knowledge of her subject. Her impulsive nature tends to make her somewhat idealistic, and thus her responses owe rather more to gut instinct than to reason. Meiyi will be happier in self-employment than trapped in a structured business or hierarchical organisation.

Natal House number: 2
Believing in her own abilities, Meiyi's attention to detail will lead her to success through hard work and her own unaided efforts. She can however work well as a member of a team even though she will rarely, if ever, delegate responsibility without stringent conditions.

Comments based on Western Grid

11

Meiyi is a balanced individual who can understand and appreciate the views of others as well as her own. She can express herself fluently, and with persuasive conviction, whilst taking account of opposing views. This means that Meiyi will get on very well with colleagues at work, both senior and junior, as well as clients, customers, suppliers and external agencies.

2

Sensitive to criticism and naturally intuitive, Meiyi has a natural ability to detect insincerity in others. Because she is a sensitive soul, Meiyi can be a solid friend and a good listener. As a result, she will get on well with colleagues, whilst being more than capable of handling office politics.

4

A practical individual, Meiyi is a neat and tidy craftsman who can organise others to achieve her plans. She should use those practical skills and organisational ability in an office management, or secretarial function, or by applying such skills to self-employment. In general, Meiyi is a neat and tidy individual - qualities of value to many different jobs.

6

Creative yet somewhat insecure, Meiyi is a family-orientated person who enjoys domestic responsibilities. She could well be employed in the hospitality industry - perhaps running a hotel, or B & B venture. In an office environment Meiyi will be valuable as the individual to whom others will turn for moral support. But home for Meiyi is where the heart is, and domestic responsibilities will always be important.

8

Good with details and with a methodical approach, Meiyi nevertheless is someone who enjoys constant new challenges to maintain her interest. She is a methodical individual with attention to detail, but is inclined to leave tasks unfinished if her active mind alights on something of greater interest. Routine tasks that fail to challenge her intellect are at greatest risk, so Meiyi needs a job that offers variety.

9

Ambitious to improve her lot, Meiyi will constantly push forward to achieve something in her life, yet this ambition will be balanced by humanitarian ideals that will lead her to support causes that may demand self-sacrifice.
[The Arrow of Scepticism: lacking the numbers 3, 5 and 7] Taking little on trust, in adult life Meiyi requires solid proof before she accepts a concept. Characterised by honesty and fairness, she is quite intuitive, yet firmly sceptical of the claims made, for example, by religion. This may be important at work, if employers require employee acceptance of work practices that are not immediately verifiable.


Comments based on Chinese Grid

1

Meiyi will make some money and enjoy a reasonable standard of living.

22

Unless she also has the numbers 4 and 9 in the Chinese Version, Meiyi will be lethargic, and likely to suffer from ill health.

33

Perceptive and well-balanced, Meiyi is both sensitive and intuitive. She will get on well with colleagues at work.

8

In the absence (in the Chinese version) of the numbers 1 and 6, she will be good with money and details. She will be happier if the Chinese grid includes the numbers 5 and 7.

9

Although Meiyi is ambitious, her ambition is tempered with humanitarian ideals.
[The Arrow of Suspicion: Lacking the numbers 4, 5 and 6] Meiyi is a cynic who worries too much about the downside. She needs to recognise more of life's advantages.

i'm tired....

have been doing my fyp since last sem...but the work is neverending...there's a lot to do but dunno how to go abt doing it...how am i supposed to know the reason behind the rejection of hypothesis...if i do, i wouldn't even have to study now....i take over the professors already...sighz....but the deadline is coming, so by hook or by crook, it would eventually be done and i'll be free from misery....yeah....

anyway, i saw my jc fren from accountancy who asked if i've found a job...of course not, i haven't even get my resume ready...but she oredi gotten a job in deloitte, a big 4 accounting firm....and another fren got a job in KPMG, also one of the big4....makes me wonder am i the only one that's so unenthusiastic in looking for a job...i'm probably gonna spend my life slogging at work, so why start work so early....although there were recruitment talks held by ubs, barclays and other international banks, i'm not sure if i wanna spend my life being a financial analyst...i've been in banking and finance for 2 yrs and i'm not exactly very keen on looking at financial statements and analysing which comapny is gonna perform well, keeping a constant lookout on the exchange during wee hours to track performance of stocks and futures....

forget it...instead of thinking abt all these, might as well spend the effort thinking of a graduation trip....haha...

love is in the air...happy valentine's day.....

ok, i won't lament about the single life on my blog....cos pple ard me prob heard enough...so i will juz share an extract of something which i read over the internet...think i also received this over a forwarded email before....it was originally in chinese, but i dunno how to get the chinese fonts working....so i juz translate it...pardon me for my lousy translation k...if u want to see the full passage, click here

life is about searching for love, each of us gotta look for 4 people in our life.
the first is yourself,
the second is the person u love most,
the third is the person who love u most,
the fourth is the person who u will spend your life with.
u will first meet the person u love most, to experience love;
because u understand how it feels like to be loved, u are able to discover who love u most;
when u have experienced love and being loved and learn what is love, u will know what u truly need,
and will find the one who is most suitable for u to spend your life with.
but in reality, the sad truth is these 3 people are not the same person;
the one u love most, din choose u;
the one who love u most, is not the one u love;
and in the most lasting relationship, it is neither with the one u love most or love u the most,
but the one who appeared at the right time.......

had the choice of doing project in sch or going to the bridal shop with my sis....but i thot i prob won't get another chance to step into a bridal shop since no one wants to marry me, so of course i chose the latter....besides, project is boring...

went to milan wedding collection at tanjong pagar....i wonder izzit juz me, but i really think bridal gowns are so gorgeous...esp the ultra long ones....and the lacy ones...and it seems so sweet to plan a wedding together with your loved one...helping each other to choose the perfect outfit...deciding which hotel is the best to hold the banquet...so on and so forth...

i guess valentine's day planning is juz a mini scale of wedding planning...had been hearing pple talking abt vday dinner, vday gift, vday activity etc for the past few days...putting in so much effort juz to make this day a memorable one for their loved one is a really touching gesture...wonder if anyone is willing to put in such effort for me next time...
