 It's fine. Everything's fine. We got this. I'm pretty confident about these exams. Once again, December 8 onwards will be one exhausting week. December 8, OB exam. Then December 9 and 10, I have work on the evenings. December 11, Tuesday will be my Political Science exam. December 12, Wednesday, work again on the evening. Thursday break -- whew. December 14, Friday, my final final exam (Human Resources). And that's about the right time to pay my tuition... aaargh! Let's just say that I could've bought a 60" flastscreen TV with that money. Gasp. I just realized: it's the last day of November!  Teaser. The screenshot above shows my -- I lost count-- my next website. I've made significant progress on my next anime fansite. The style will house two anime titles: Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo (kinda' like Love Hina) and Say I Love You (Sukitte Ii na yo). It'll feature a new style of worldplay and roleplay meshed into one. I haven't picked a title yet for the whole project and when that's done with, I'm going to launch the site. *fingers crossed* Despite the amount of progress, the release date is pending. There's still a lot of things to finish-- meaning my final exams. Doi. Headache. Labels: captain's log Jump To:

 My Mother's Lullaby by Sam1 When I was a child, my mom would always sing me her lullaby. It would always make me feel warm and cozy under my blanket. The stroke of her hand while singing would make any pain go away. It was magic. She never failed to make me fall asleep. Some kids like their bedtime stories. As for me, I just tug my mom while she's cooking or reading and tell her that I'm going to sleep. Mom would then put down whatever she's doing and both of us would go to my bedroom. I would listen to her lullaby. I love my mom's lullaby. It's one of a kind that soothes me inside and out. One time, I did my very best hiding my face away from her, because I cried from her lullaby. Such love. Such warmth. Truly one of a kind. The love of my mother. I couldn't prevent myself from growing up. I would no longer tug my mom for her lullaby. Instead, every night, my mom would go to my room, and sing me her lullaby while I'm in bed. Sometimes, I would pretend to fall asleep, so she can go. But then I noticed that mom would stroke my forehead and give me a kiss before she left the room. I grew up and eventually grew tired of the lullaby. One evening, I came home very upset and I slammed the door to my room. I was wondering how my life turned out this way. I became so angry that I didn't care about anyone anymore. I lied on my bed and my inner self was shouting. After several minutes, I heard the door creak and I saw a silhouette of my mom enter the room. She asked me what happened. But I told her that I didn't want to talk about it. In my mind, I was pushing mom off; I just wanted her to go away. Then she started singing me her lullaby. I don't know what came over me, "CAN YOU STOP SINGING ME THAT STUPID SONG EVERY NIGHT?! IT'S SO STUPID AND ANNOYING! I'M NOT A KID ANYMORE! JUST STOP IT!" I lashed out on her. Mom paused and her voice was breaking. She said, "O-okay." then she stroked my forehead and I flicked her hand away. I lashed out on her even further. "DON'T TOUCH MY FOREHEAD! I HATE IT WHEN YOU DO THAT! YOUR HAND IS SO WRINKLY THAT IT'S IRRITATING! I HATE IT! JUST GO AWAY!" Mom walked away without leaving me her kiss. I continued to grow up -- at least it's what I think. I moved out from home and into my new apartment. I graduated. I found a job. I thought I was well off on my way to this thing called life. But I began to notice that everyday's becoming so stressful and I even had a hard time sleeping. I bought a brand new car. I'm now seeing someone else. And I'm thinking of settling down. But life never got easier. Life became so hard at one point that I got confused and I was not satisfied at anything. My work got affected. My relationship started to struggle. And nothing is making me happy. Despite the rally of friends, I am alone in this crowd. One night, I've become confused why I am not satisfied when I have so much. I was longing for warmth, because it always feels cold in this world. I had this feeling deep inside that I didn't know. There was no word to describe it. But the loneliness was evident. Instead of coming back to the apartment, I drove back home. "Hi, mom. Hi, dad." I said. They were pleasantly surprised and I ducked down, because I was embarrassed to let them see such a mess -- me. But the moment I stepped in through that door, and after the moment I've seen them both open the door, I started to feel much better. That night I decided to sleep in my old room. My old room is still the way it was when I left. And I slept on my old bed. I was able to think clearly in that room; I found it odd. But I did the right thing going back home. But then again, I still had a hard time sleeping. I heard the door creak. And I woke up from my shallow sleep. I thought that maybe mom and dad wanted to talk to me about my sudden visit. They're very sharp about these things -- they know when I'm troubled. And I do want to talk about lots of things with them. But I should've known better. Mom started to sing me her lullaby. I found out that I've been missing such magic ever since I moved out. I was filled with such warmth and this is the warmth that I was looking for. Believe me, all the pain, all the loneliness, all the worries, all my fears were sucked out when I heard her sing. I started to sob and cry. I turned around and hugged her tight. I eagerly embraced her very tight; I didn't want to let go. "I'M- I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SO SORRY, MOM! I'M SO SORRY! I'M VERY SORRY!" I kept apologizing. Mom chuckled a bit. "You're Sorry? What for?" She asked. I looked at her face and she stroked on my forehead. "I'm sorry I lashed out on you. That one night. I'm sorry I took my anger on you. I'm sorry for being terrible and saying those mean and stupid things when you were singing your lullaby. I even insulted you. I'm so sorry, mom." "Oh-- that?" Mom looked up. And then she looked down and she spoke with her eyes. "I've already forgotten about that." Mom smiled. The guilt was gone. And I laughed, because mom did forget. I thought that she would remember. But she simply didn't know what I was talking about. She forgot it. She forgave me. She did a long time ago. "Now go to sleep." She kissed me on my forehead.

Chapter 11 What is conflict?
TWO TYPE OF CONFLICT: Constructive and Relationship conflicts Constructive conflicts
Positive consequences
Relationship conflict
Negative consequences
-> This is emotional or behavioral in nature. Note to self: structural sources of Conflict p. 262-264 p. 302-305 Five Interpersonal Conflict Management: Forcing, Problem Solving, Compromising, Avoiding, Yielding Assertiveness = getting your needs met Cooperativeness = willingness which we want the other party's goals to be met. Forcing - high on assertiveness, low on cooperativeness. - win-lose situation/ orientation - occur one party has high levels of organizational power (legitimate, coercive and/or reward) - can involve hard forms o influential tactics - pressure and coalition. Best used - quick action required / emergencies - leader(s) know they are right eg. Evacuation of an area - important and unpopular actions are required-cost cutting; downsizing. (eg. bailing out GM and Chrysler) - take advantage of non-competitive behavior. Avoiding - low assertiveness, low on cooperativeness - indicates low concern for self and low concern for others - remain neutral (indifference) - deliberate decision to take no action (NA) or postpone action. Best used - the issue is no really important to you - where issue is trivial - see no chance of satisfying your concerns - gather more information (issue needs more facts) - want the individuals to cool down (relationship conflict) - issues are tangential or symptomatic of other issues (no bearing on the issue at hand) Problem-solving - high on both assertiveness and cooperativeness - high concern for self and high concern for others - most effective form of conflict resolution - It's the most difficult to come by - requires openness - trust & sharing of information by both parties - a win-win style - find a mutually beneficial solution- collaboration Best used - issues are too important for both sides to compromise - learning is the aim - to merge insights of both parties - gain commitment through consensus - work through feelings that interfered with a relationship/ task Yielding - low assertiveness, high cooperation - low concern for self and high concern for others - the accommodating style Best used - issue is not very important to accommodating party but is very important to the other party. (eg. increase marks by 2) - need to defuse a potentially explosive emotional situation-relationship conflict - show reasonableness - build social credits for latter issues Compromising - middle - intermediate concern for self and others - moderate assertiveness, moderate coopeartion - occurs when conflict is resolved through give-and-take concessions - the most common form of conflict resolution - easy form of resolution - maintains relations between parties - not optimal Best used - goals important, not worth being assertive - equal power and strong commitment to mutual exclusive goals - time constraint - temporary solutions / temporary measure Resolving Conflict Through Negotiations Negotiation - process in which two or more interdependent individuals discuss and attempt to come to an agreement about their different preferences. - ongoing group and organizations activity - bargaining process - interdependent Creating value - best outcomes for both parties (win-win / problem-solving style) Integrative Bargaining. Claiming value - best possible outcomes for yourself and your constituets (win-lose) Distributive Bargaining. Third party Conflict Resolution - a relatively neutral person to help parties resolve their differences - not part of initial conflict - impartial - ombudsperson - individuals from different sectors of organization - manager / leader from other departments / organizations / nations - court system / international court system Types of third party intervention Mediation Third person is communicator The intervention process - opening statements - develop understanding of issues - develop solutions (eg. rational persuasion, propose alternatives, encourage concessions) Outcome: high control on process low control on outcome best used on labour disputes Arbitration Acts as a decision maker The intervention process - parties structure and schedule proceedings - listen to arguments and cross exams - in person hearing if requested - submit claims - similar to a trial - low control outcome - arbitrator makes final and binding decision - enforceable by law or upper management - high control Inquisition Third party acts as communicator and decision maker The intervention process - thir party controls all process about the conflict - high control outcome - iquisior makes bidning decision - parties abide - high control - most common form of intervention - not effective and seen as unfair Labels: captain's log Jump To:
