Fight the meanies. Protect your reputation.
Ever came across offensive remarks about others, or even those that are directed to you?
Given the technology today (and even more so after the birth of social media), it is not hard to see such defamatory remarks circulating around the Internet.
The source of it? Well it may just be a childish and impulsive moment-of-anger thing, or it may be more that it meets to the eye – (psst!!! watch out for your business competitor!).
So, with the cyber-bullies so harsh and aggressive, what should we do to protect our online reputation then?
Fret not, managing your online reputation may actually be just as simple as these 3 steps:
1) Manage your profile/ privacy settings well. (Please DO NOT divulge too much personal information online, like your mobile no. or even bank account no. etc…) You wouldn’t want to attract those malicious prying eyes do you?
2) Regular Monitoring - so that you can “fish out” those nasty remarks and have them settled before the whole world reads it.
3) “Crowding it out” (or ‘pushing’ that embarrassing party photo down the search ranks). Essence of it is to “BURY” all the ugly stuff down the search engine.
- (***hint***) Use your name to register your own website (ie. domain or blog) so that it comes out first on the list of the search engine results.
-(***Hint Hint***) Or simply Piggy-back off websites whose pages rank high in Google such as social networking sites (eg. Facebook, Twitter etc) You’ll just have to post comments or your basic profile on it)
Right, so we know how to protect our reputation online. Now, MAKE SURE that we aren’t the CYBER-BULLIES ourselves!!! =D
Remember, always practice good online etiquette by:
■Being responsible to what we write.
■Respect others and their privacy
■Do not post offensive, defamatory and untrue remarks about others
■ Don’t divulge too much personal information.
■THINK BEFORE YOU WRITE/TYPE!!!
Hope this helps!!! Protect yourself from the malicious meanies.

My secret dream job.
Recently, I've been having a strong thought in my mind that I wanna be a well-acclaimed novelist. It just popped out in my mind out of nowhere and seriously, it has been stuck in my mind now for days.
Thus, I started to do more research on Harry Potter, and realised how complicated and perfect the storyline was laid and developed. I'd always seen it as a kiddy but enjoyable read, but now, I see it as an inspiration.
It is quite unexpected actually, since that wasn't even one of the options on my list of dream occupations that I had since young. But well, there's it. My new goal in life :)
Well, I know this dream seems far, but afterall, hadn't our elders and lecturers told us to DREAM BIG, and Live our dreams?
hahah I hope I'll be able to publish my own novel one day. Wish me luck!! =D

PS: J.K Rowling is one GREAT woman. I look up to her :)

Thoughts for the day
1)Do not be afraid to fail. Persevere, and you'll come out stronger.
2)What appears to be ill fortune at one point could end up benefiting you in the future.
These two lines happen to hit my mind today. Hope to share it with my friends :)

My Transformation
I was reflecting on past memories when I realised how much I've transformed.
I used to be the one always hiding at a corner; afraid of even raising my hand to ask questions in class....
I used to stutter whenever someone unfamiliar talks to me; even unable to maintain a mutual eye-contact with them...
However, ever since my family especially my sis encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and pursue my passion - performing on stage in front of an audience, I realised I found a NEW me.
Never would I have thought that I'll be able to sing and dance confidently in front of a large audience....needless to say even hosting performances and competitions.
I sometimes ask myself," Is this really who I am?", "Do I really like what I'm doing now?".
And I can now confidently answer "YES" =D
I feel an immense sense of satisfaction whenever I do well on stage; when my performances are well-received by the audience. I feel glad and appreciative when people like what my sis and I are doing. I feel encouraged whenever my family and friends go down to show their support for us during our performances. I feel lucky and loved whenever my TRUE friends (you know who you are) are there for me whenever I am down; even bearing with my random annoying nonsense/moodswings/tight schedule - (I feel especially guilty for causing inconveniences during project meet-ups since they are always accommadating to my schedule). I am really grateful to have these angels with me =D =D =D
Recently after a performance, a couple of little girls approached my sis and I and told us that they want to be like us when they grow up. When they held my hands and smiled at me, I wanted to cry...I was so touched that I was lost for words. ---(Ok this may sound dramatic like the recent Jack Neo controversy) But anyways, yeah that was what I really felt at that point of time.
Looking back at what I've done, meeting different kinds of people, experiencing many new experiences, I've really learnt much and grown up.
I feel blessed, loved and valued; and I really appreciate those who really care about me.
I love what I'm doing. I love the new me.
Sincerely,
Camellia
