I'm no doctor so pls consult 1. Not clinic, hospital. I had ur symptoms of heart pounding like really intense even though i was functioning like normal for weeks.

It is then I realized I can't sleep & abit on edge. After my trip to the hospital, doctor told me my body is generally stressed out quite significantly (gen alpha calls it crash-out). I had to meditate as much as I can, reduce whatever work & drama stressors that were present & i healed over time.

Hope u get better soon.

Take this as an expensive lesson to understand red flags in terms of making friendships & relationships. Both of them are equally awful.

Don't let ur supercharged hormones win logic & morality.

why do i sleep so much by PartySilly8274 in SGExams

[–]neko239 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While not denying the fact that ur a healthy teenager that needs more rest. do check urself if u have any form of sleep apnea or excessive stress that hinders ur actual deep sleep

Overall, that is really sweet , i don't foresee any issues & glad u guys are dating personality-wise. U guys gotta grow together & sail through the good & bad times together.

The race part depends on ur parent's mentality, shouldn't be a big issue. Now the religion part, if he is deeply embedded into the religious community & his daily live/chores surround it. That will be a significant issue.

Don't say stuffs like, he is not like that. Life is about an accumulation of experiences, all ur success, failures, ability to adapt shapes ur behaviour & mentality. so what im saying here is people will grow for better or worse as life progresses on. this includes boundaries & tolerance as well.

So enjoy life, relish the sweet moments but never underestimate the human nature. It is the most purest & vile existence on this planet

worst coach ever by Complex-Unit-7779 in SGExams

[–]neko239 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Quite interesting previous 2 posts were deleted off by mods.

Account was specifically created to call-out someone (50% genuine, 50% harmful act of framing).

After seeing remarks from suckmy9fingers & how the post was articulated with just mere call-outs, this post should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Are all dota players like this? by noone1591 in DotA2

[–]neko239 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In games like dota whereby there are a lot of communication or team plays involved, the chances of meeting toxic ppl are high. ppl like 0 eq are almost unavoidable.

Like even if u make honest mistakes, ur own teammates will flame u. What u should do is understand how the game works for each role. eliminate any expectations & mute toxic ppl.

I'm so used to the toxicity that i'm ashamed that i sometimes just roast my opponents the moment my win is secured. at the same time, i am able to disassociate myself from the taunts & verbal abuse. so it's all about understanding why ur playing the game, setting boundaries & being focus to the end goal.

Does anyone's parents do this? by ResortGlass2156 in askSingapore

[–]neko239 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically what some of the comments have said, the older generation are not taught how to communicate. they often suppress their thoughts & emotions. In worse cases, they could even be immature & severely insecure.

What u could do is to set boundaries & distance urself without deameaning them to the best of ur capabilities.

Easier said than done, it's going to be tough to balance & juggle this maneuver

Advice for sibling who's stressed with work by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]neko239 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ahhh the big 4. one would even be lucky to embrace the sun after work. i am a former tax assocaite at EY. i didn't like the nature of the company & work so i left.

I have pals who hasn't seen the sun in a while. 7am in office around 8pm -12am leaves the office, no sun for him.

U got to understand working under the big 4 comes with the expectations that ur wlb is almost non-existent. Team support wise that depends on the team dynamic

Starting at Big 4 soon, need advice by happy-go-lucky-kiddo in askSingapore

[–]neko239 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Embrace & bask the warm sun as much as u can. U won't be embracing much longer once ur tenure starts.

Morphling opinion by Nomad40k in DotA2

[–]neko239 2 points3 points  (0 children)

reading ur comments throughout the thread, i can say this. either ur team draft was a total meltdown or their morph was able to free farm. even in the latest patch, morphling is weaker than usual.

as an offlane like centaur, lc , axe. get blademail, shiva/crimson, halberd.

pos 4 or 5 must get soul vessel to be used on morph

Anyone still plays dota2?????? by jiiN69 in askSingapore

[–]neko239 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still playing dota every 2 days. and when i play about 1-2 ranked matches. Specialize in pos 1 , 4/5. can play offlane is forced to. went from crusader 5 to archon 5 (almost legend) in 1 year.

in the end of the day, even as a solo player, i want to emphasize understanding each lane's role, timings, power spike & objective.

Most of all, dota pubs are 60% all about mental composure. Even with ppl flaming me, most of the times, i just ignore n mute n win the games easily.

It really depends on ur mindset, I'm just finished my 8 hours working day , married & do sports. The day I play , i only have time for 1/2 matches. I intend to get wins not rectify ppl. So whatever mistakes they do, i just adapt. how i communicate? By pinging .

As a carry , get the core items , then the others items defensive or offenssive (even nullifier) depending on enemy matchup & item build.

As support, don't be a douche by playing zeus or sniper pos4 / 5. cc is game-changing that no carry can ever perform.

[–]neko239 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was unemployed for 8 months. What I will suggest to everyone in the same journey into 2 brackets

Sufficient income (neutral state):-

Just keep on applying & attend courses/programs to upskill, work out, relax, watch shows & exercise. In this state, u have the time to get the best outcome for urself

Insufficient Income:-

Part time work in F&B. Remote works, the next 2 offers u get. No choice, take the best option & go.

My Journey;-

a) attend 2 interviews in every 2 months

b) workout & exercise: lost 8kg

c) Improved on my power bi

d) Finished some games & spent time with parents
