Dorm


Sock Mui is so sweet to treat us to Azabu Sabo Hokkaido Ice Cream to indulge in those irressistable desserts. Oh gosh, they are so delicious. Just looking at it will make you drool. Don' believe? Here... see for yourself.




Greentea is the best. Wohoo... I want to go back again!

======================

Went to Ashlyn's house to watch DORM.


Oh its, so pixeled. If you you can see the boy is quite cute.

This story is about this boy who is transferred to a boarding school. He always felt lonely and avoid talking. He dislike people around him. Somehow, he hated his father because he sent him to the boarding school away from his home and friends. We later found out that his father brought a woman home to have sex which is withnessed by him. In this school, there are rumours that there is a boy who committed suicide in a swimming pool. THerefore, the school closed that pool and opened a new one. It is also rumoured that the teacher is a bit cranky because she keeps opening a drawer and cry uncontrollably. No one knows what is inside the drawer.

When all of this boy's classmates make fun of him and tease him, he finally made a friend. A few days after, then he realised that this friend is a ghost. The boy is seen by his friends talking to the air. Despite being a ghost, his friend is loyal and provides good companionship. The story unfold that this friend found out that his father was caught in prision a few years back when he read the newspaper in the teacher's drawer. Concidentally, he drowned when he got a leg cramp yet his mates ignored him. Thereby, all along, the teacher thought that she has caused him to commit suicide when he was actually drowned. The boy in the end rescued his friend by risking his life so that he won't have to keep repeating the death scene.

This story seems to be telling us that in time of crisis, all we need is just a trust-worthy friend who will not forsake you and will struggle with you till the end. I mean, one can have many friends. But when you are in need, how many will stand by your side? Your family members will certainly be by your side, but what if they are not around? Then friend become a important character. Those who know your weakness and still want to oversee it and look at your strengths they are what you call true friends. While those who found out that about your weakness and intend to drift away from you are what you call fair weather friends.

When someone you care gets into trouble




Its been a few days since I last blog. I have been busy lately joining HY and his care group friends to The Rock and attended care group of my own. Oh man, the fellowship is awesome. The people I met are all happy, energetic yet sensitive and caring at the same time.

Anyway, back to topic. People self- destruct for a reason. They have hatred in themselves. They have guilt and condemnation in them. Deep in their hearts they felt that they have done wrong, but in order to cover that up, they blame others. More often then not, they blame those who are closest to them, be it their partner, their brothers, or sisters. They may felt that no one love them anymore. In this case, if you happen to know such a person, the only thing that you can do is to show your love towards the person. Yet if you yourself do not love yourself, how do you expect your love to overflow to others?

In their hearts, there are struggling to be set free. They resort to ways they thought can set them free, like alcohol or cigarettes. Alcohol can temporary create a “high” sensation and temporary enable a person to forget about their worries. Cigarettes make a person feel relax and at ease. However, they are not aware that cigarettes is that effective not because of the tobacco, but because of the deep breathing involved. If one will to ever try to replace the cigarette with a pen and perform the deep inhalation one is doing while smoking, he will experience the same effect.

Consuming alcohol will only add to your sorrows. At that instance when you drink it, you will experience great pleasure after which. You will uncontrollably be smiling and even laughing giving you the impression of happiness. You will have the guts to do things you don’t usually do like dancing wildly. Sometimes, you are not even aware of it. Frankly speaking, I experience it all. When the dosage of alcohol is too high for you to take it, you will do things without yourself realizing it. I must say it is very dangerous especially for ladies but fortunately because of my protective friends like Susan and Huey, I am fine and well the next day. What I mean is that all these symptoms are not signs of real happiness. In the end, you still end up feeling empty and depressed.

What really fills up my heart like nothing else I ever experience is the walk with God. My spirit is filled whenever I go to church. My strength is renewed whenever I feed on His Word. He enlightens me in areas of life with I have doubts about. Be it on relationships or education or working life. He gives me life and life more abundantly.

Yet there are some people who take the extremes of extremes to make them feel that they have no other way left except to turn to God. What I mean extremes of extremes is such that they might take on drugs, alcohol, cigarette, go through smuggling to get money for more of that and eventually ended up in prison. And worse still for another loss of a dear one before they realize that God is always by their side without them knowing it. Then only they realize how blessed they are. He has blessed us with so many other things but it seem that we only know how focus on the negative side of life and ended up blessing the negative side of life causing it to multiply.

All that I ask for


Today's care group reminds me of a friend's brother's friend who passed away not long ago. That person jumped into the pool to save another person. Sadly, she passed away. My care group leader told us that she will go to hell. Just because she did not receive Christ. One good deed can never cover all the sins one has done in their lifetime. It is so unfair that she has to go to hell earlier and lost the chance to receive Christ. She is so young, perhaps younger than me, yet anything can happen. Life is so fragile just like of a vapour. One moment a person exist, the other they perish. It is so important to be saved because it assures you a place in Heaven. The spreading of the gospel is there to save lives.

All I ask for from kor is that you will go to church with me. Just go with me. Even if its just one time. You need to know more about Him. Will you go with me kor, if you happen to ever read my blog? Is two or three hours of your time a week really so difficult to get? My stories are not that impactful, Pastor Prince really has the anointing to let you know more about Him. If you are willing to listen to me, why don't you listen to Pastor Prince too? Just once is all that I ask for.

An eventful day at work


Woah.. today is a busy busy day. Yet I loved every second of it. We have got an acquisition meeting today at SAM conference room. I kinda of love such meetings because all the big shots will gather. I love to observe the way they communicate. I tell you, they are all calm and cool headed. They bring about their points clearly and in a civilised manner. They do not add emotions to their opinions, but state the facts and opinions in a frank and open way. Those present include Chua Ek Kay, a famous artist, former asst director, asst directors, director and writer of LianHe Zhou Bao. They are all proposing the price of the various paintings to be acquired. Everything went smoothly as I had expected. I am surely favoured because just as I was about to think that we are going to walk back Stamford Court with the stuff, Cindy came by rushing us to lend her camera. Of course I obliged and therefore get to get a free ride back in Ahmad's car.

I had lunch with Han Yuen today. Usually, Jacqueline will be with us but today she is joinging her friend. Han Yuen must be a fellow Christian God has send to accompany me. Just as I was murmuring that I have no Christian friend, the very next week, he was sent to my company sitting behind me. The most amazing thing was that he is from NEW CREATION too! I don't know how to express, but it must really be God's plan. I really enjoy fellowshipping with fellow Christian. Since Jac was not with us, we chatted a lot about God and stuff. It really feels so good that someone understands what you are experiencing and felt the same way.

After lunch time, I travelled back SAM to assist Xinyi move the painting for photography. Actually I didn't need move because all of a sudden Kelvin appeared, then Jumari and Chris appeared. All I do was to touch the trolley. Haha. Here are some pictures I took.

True Yoga


Had a great time with Liyan at True Yoga yesterday. A member of True Yoga is allowed to bring along a friend hence here I am enjoying the benefit. We had sexy dance for this time round. Woooh... the instructor is a Japanese lady who has a terrific body. Her arms are strong and has a mild six packs. Her skin is fair and she speaks perfect English. She exudes sexiness and elegant in all her movements. The dance was quite easy to me due to my basic dance background. Anyway, my friend wants to pass the membership away as she is going overseas and wants me to ask if anyone is interested to take over for $140 per month I think. It is unlimited acess to the yoga sessions which last another 6 months plus. If you will to sign up yourselves, it is actually a two year contract. You got many sessions to chooose from ranging from hot yoga, sexy dance, exotic dance normal yogo so on and so forth.

Made a new friend named Ping Hui today.

She accompanied me to my workplace. I was pretty exhausted by then. Francis is doing the shift with me. After doing some data entry. I get to watch television and suft net. Oh... it is so lovely to relax in this way and get paid. Singapore Idol is screening. I usually hate to watch this type of nonsense until Jonathon sang the second song. Oh, I tell you, it sounds so nice man! I only realised I like English songs only then. And I like those slow and soothing ones. The types which I thought I never will like. Hmm... I have a strong feeling Jonathon WILL WIN. TRUST ME. HE WILL. We shall see.

Anyway, what a blessed me I am.
Haha... anyway I have a blessed day. Praise the Lord.

Touch


As young parents and siblings we passed around newborns and hugged, cuddled, and cooed to them. We stuck our faces into the soft warm flesh of their bellies and blew raspberries into their navels.


And as tired and worn adults we've crawled into beds and snuggled up against the warm accepting skin of our beloved.


Touch is our oldest, most primitive and pervasive sense. It's the first sense we experience in the womb and the last one we lose before death. And our skin, which has about 50 touch receptors for every square centimeter and about 5 million sensory cells overall, is hungry for touch. We need touch to live, to grow, to calm and protect ourselves, and to make peace with one another.


Study after study of our mammal cousins have shown that young animals that are touched a great deal grow more quickly and soundly, develop stronger immune responses, exhibit more playfulness and less fear, tolerate stress better, and have a greater resistance to all sorts of physiological harm.


And this is not just true of lab rats and primates. Human neonates, preemies, and infants who have been touched and held regularly do much better than those who have not. Children who are picked up, cuddled, cradled, rocked, petted, and stroked have been shown to gain weight and grow faster and to start crawling, walking, and grabbing earlier. They are also more alert and active, sleep more soundly, and develop stronger immune systems and higher I.Q.s than those left in their cribs.


History seems to show this, too. At the turn of the century the infant mortality rate in many foundling homes hovered between 80 and 90 percent. Uncounted numbers of these warehoused children died of marasmus, a wasting disease that also struck many upper-middle-class infants whose mothers had been advised not to spoil their children by picking them up too often. It was only in the 1930s that American hospitals and physicians began to discover that a failure to cuddle and hold children had devastating physiological and psychological results. Tender loving care is just what the doctor should have ordered.


Today we're getting a better sense of the importance of touch, recovering the wisdom of our bodies and relearning some of the wisdom of ancient Eastern traditions. Hospice workers are trained to hold and touch the sick and dying. Heart-attack victims are encouraged to get a pet to stroke or cuddle. Ancient disciplines like accupressure and shiatsu massage are becoming increasingly popular, as are a wide variety of physical and emotional therapies relying on the healing power of touch.


Still, touch remains hard for many of us, and a lot of us continue to hug each other as if we were afraid a good squeeze could set off an explosion or--worse--some sexual attraction. Part of the blame probably goes to an entertainment media that offers us a very skewed picture of how we touch one another. We see lots of folks on TV jumping into bed with each other at the drop of a hat, and lots of others beating the living daylights out of somebody--but we hardly ever see people just holding hands, or hugging for more than two seconds. Maybe that would be too dull for our TV eyes.


Maybe it also explains why we pay the folks who offer tender loving care in our nurseries and nursing homes so little money, because we don't value touch enough.


Of course the recent barrage of reports about all sorts of abuse and harassment probably hasn't made us feel any more comfortable with touch. When we hear about parents, teachers, coaches, clergy, and bosses caught touching their children and charges in uninvited, destructive ways, it spooks us all a bit and we get even shyer about touching others. How sad that we are being so well educated about how not to touch each other, and getting little assistance learning how to touch and be touched. After all, the solution to touching badly is not to give up on touch. It's to learn a joyful, loving, and compassionate touch.


Jesus as a big toucher. The New Testament has 14 accounts of him reaching out to touch another person, often with healing, always with compassion. He reached out especially to touch the untouchables: lepers whose skin was mottled with disease, prostitutes whom others touched and then scapegoated, sick people with open sores, blind people thought to be cursed from birth, even the dead. He also let others touch him--a woman with a long-term hemorrhage, a weeping penitent who lavished tears on his feet, and small children who probably played in his lap and stroked his beard.


What's critical about Jesus' touch was that it was not hierarchical, controlling, or abusive. He didn't touch to manipulate, to push, punish, or belittle. And he didn't touch in ways that weren't invited and welcomed, in ways that failed to respect others. Instead, his touch was compassionate, gentle, loving--and miraculous. It was also generous, given in large doses and gestures, not small, jealously guarded dabs. The Word Made Flesh blessed, hugged, anointed, laid on hands, and embraced.


We may not have the gift of a miraculous healing touch, but we do have the capacity to give and receive a touch that is compassionate, loving, and respectful, and to model that touch for our children. We have a capacity to give comfort, solace, pleasure, and joy with our touch, and in that way to embody God's compassionate grace. Your touch can be more graceful and warm and loving than that of the friendliest kitten on a warm couch. That's healing power enough for anybody.

Never let failure fail you


What is your definition of failure? Deep down in your heart, are you afraid that upon setting your heart and soul on doing something, you will fail? The every fear of failing prevents you from achieving and even pursuing your dreams or goals? The very fear that eventually push you to flow through your lives with the rest of the world. Adam Khoo said," If you follow what everyone else is doing, you will receive what everyone else receives" If you are going to go through a finance course and learn only that without improving yourself on your own, you will end up working under bank with a fixed salary of $2k plus. And with that amount of money is certainly not going to allow you to retire due to the inflation.

Now, how do we define failure? I am sure most of you will tell me that failure is planning for something but eventually the plans do not turn out the way you wanted it to be. Example it may be that you wanted to sell a package to someone but after three attempts of failure, you just felt that you are not suitable to sell because the successful sales. You self convinced yourself that you are not cut out for sales. Does not relate to you? How about you wanted to lose 2kg within two months but at the end of it, you find that you never lose any weight? Then you are going to say to yourself that maybe you are just born fat and nothing can change it. There! You have submit yourself to failure! In fact failure is only a mindset which is created by you and only you. No one can define it for you except yourself. If we were to change the definition of failure to NEVER GIVE UP, it means that you will NEVER FAIL! Is it not amazing? Knowing that you will never fail? A set back only means a stepping stone for you to step forward towards you goal. Once we learnt that it is only a stepping stone, we will be eager to take upon setbacks and learn as much as we can from them.

In this way, we view it at a totally different perspective and the results we get will be in a total different one. Don't all successful people fail? Of course they do, in fact they fail the MOST! Those who never fail are those who never try. Those who are satisfied with what others have planned for them. Therefore, let failure propel you one step nearer to your goal and don't let it fail you.

What excites you?


No, no, its not sex that excites me. I tell you what excites me. After so many years, I finally realise what is the thing that really excites me. It is money, and not money given to me, neither is it money I earned through sheer hard work, it is money earned through the use of my ideas. What does it actually mean? it means buying, repackage and selling at a profit. I tell you, it is really exciting.

Met up with Susan and Mel, and we had a deep long conversation about our education and future. Discussing such stuff turns me on these days, much more than complaining about people or the weather. Had wanted to continue the conversation but since Mel would love to sing, therefore I shall oblige. well, my singing really sucks when it is in mandarin. There are so many words I can't seem to figure out. It seems that the only songs I am able to sing are Christian songs, though I must have the lyrics in front of me. I can memorise the whole of health concepts or whatsoever but when it comes to lyrics, my mind can be blank.

Back to topic, making profits excites me so much that I change my specialisation. I want to do something that will excite me the whole day long. And the only way is to do something I like. I remembered when I was in Transixxx, whenever I sold a package and made a profit, I would be so satisfied and pleased with myself. The feeling can last for very very long, up to even now. And when I sold those eyewear for Natural Vision, I also felt so marvellous. I ask myself why and realised that the ability to make a profit yet satisfy my customers bring me joy. I want to sell only things which are worthy of my saliva. I want the things to bless others life in areas of their health, pleasure and whatsoever.

My close friends of my know what is my ambition, I have great ambitions.I want to start of as a salesperson- an occupation which never allow you to starve as long as you know how to sell. And selling is my passion. May the Lord be with me.

Who suits you?


For those who visit my blog regularly will realise that I lacked inspiration for three days. Not really lack though, its just I have no time to express my ideas since I am seeking for other things.

Anyway, my entry today is about finding your partner. I believed many of us will always say things like," I want my future boyfriend to be handsome, tall, intelligent, humourous and romantic and have great fashion sense" if you are a girl and "I want my future girlfriend to be pretty, kind, sweet, have great inner beauty and caring." Then at the back of our hearts somehow you feel that what we expect will not be what we have. Sounds familiar?

Hmmm...I come to realise one thing recently. Let me ask you a question first, will you be attracted to a person who is unkempt, short, stupid, lack humour, dull and poor fashion sense? If you are one who is just the opposite of all the traits, of course you will scream NO! That is it, if we want to attract the traits that we desire, we have to have those traits ourselves first. I am not trying to be mean, but have you walk along the streets and see that a couple who looked ugly (just because they both do not like to dress up) and of the same kind- thick specs, unkempt eyebrows and hair, face with many many red pimples, blackheads, plain t shirts and pants. And have you see glamourous couple with styled hair, trimmed eyebrows(not guys, they ought to be thick for them), flawless complexion, matching clothes. In short, you attract person that looks like you.

Having, said that, of course exceptions occur. As in, when you are still naive and not sure what you one and just testing out the feeling of being in a relationship, then you just go for feelings. One thing I must warn, feelings change. No matter how strong it is, one day, it will change if you do not guard your heart.

Appearance does not really matter as long as the person is dilligent enough to maintain their image. The inside of the person is the most important. It is easy to judge how graceful a person is, by his/ her actions. A man may open the door for a lady and send her home, but may only have the intention of leaving a good impression for the lady. Whereas a true gentleman will do all these out of the pure intention of knowing that she is a weaker vessel and ensuring her safety. A lady may speak sweetly during the first few dates but when deeper into the relationship, she might just scream at the man as and when she fancy.

Now comes my bias judgement once again. Personally, from the many guys I meet, those who are non-Christians, they tend to create a false front. They will do some things within their comfort zone to please a lady, but once over their comfort zone, they will back off hoping that she forgets about the incident. Whereas Christian guys of strong faith tend to sincerely serve people out to please the Lord. They will treat people around them well especially their loved ones. Therefore, I believe non-Christian guys are only suitable to be friends. Help each other in times of need. And even though I might be eager to help, maybe they might just ignore my help once they know they cannot get me. Somehow, fellowship is difficult to forge with them.

All right, end of my bias comparision. Whatever it is, find someone who you think suits you. Find someone whom you find easy to forge fellowship and has the same frequency as you. Find someone who has the dilligence to maintain their looks like you. In this way, the similarities bond the both of you resulting in lasting relationships. Vice versa if you think you just want a fling.

A day I call Wonderful


Went to Kelvin house to dye my hair with Agnes. After makan at TPY, we catch a glimpse of Superstar. Recently I like to listen to people who knows how to sing to sing. Perhaps after hearing so many Christian songs, I suddenly got a liking for singing.

After

Soon after I rushed to meet my Uncle from overseas and our family. Due to my super poor direction, sweet Agnes ended up walking me to the threatre there. Halfway there and I met them. My Uncle and Aunt looked very shocked at my change in appearance. They thought I looked trendy that they almost cannot recognise me. Well, I told them that it is the grace of God and they claimed I am preaching. You see, sometimes the first to react can also be your family. Anyway,we watched Singapore Dreaming.

Now the whole show practically shows how pessimistic majority of Singaporeans are. Its supposed to be realistic. It is realistic in the sense some people queue and queue to win lottery or 4D but when they finally got it, they are too overwhelmed with shock that they pass away. It also set people thinking that while Singaporeans slog their guts out, in the end, they do not have the life to live the fruits. It shows the Chinese customs of Singaporeans believing in the neitherlands. As in the things they burn, the dead person will receive in the other world. This show shows that life in the neitherland they believe in is so empty that the dead have to depend on the living to burn certain things. Which means that if the living do not burn, then they will have nohing. Is it not so pathetic to believe in that?

The show also portrays that when Singaporeans experience anger or unfairness, they vend their anger and disappointment to their loved ones. The bearing of grudges make them unhappy. Holding onto unhappy memories instead of focusing on good ones. Its only when a person is dead, then only happy memories flood back to them. They have the tendacy to complain and complain because they only see the bad things in life. They refuse to see the good side of life. It really shows what I was last time. Its only when I learn to see the merry things then my heart is made merry. Its a show where Singaporeans see the bad side of them, hopefully, they come into their senses and learn to respect others more. Treat people the way you expect to be treated.

Are you afraid of competition?


Have you always wanted to join a club but upon hearing that there will be competition at the end of the session and you back off? Well, I don’t know about you, but I do in the past. And this has stopped me in pursing the things I have interest. For example, dance. Dancing is really a cool whole exercise for me. In the past, when I was in the control room doing theatre management, I always opened my eyes where there is a dance performance. I enjoy how the body creates different styles to portray and instill different types of feelings into the audience.

So the first thing I did was to sign up for dance course upon knowing that there won’t know be competition and I can take it free and easy without any pressure. However, I ask myself, if that is the case, what is the motive of joining then if there is no certificate or competition? Yes, to enjoy myself, but would not it better if I can actually enjoy myself and at the same time participate in competitions? At least with competitions, there is a trainer to guide me and tell me where I can improve on.

Okay, then so how can we be not afraid of competition? The answer is to be the best in whatever you are doing. Learn and absorb as much as you can during the session. In fact, competition does not only apply to sports/ dance, it applies in our daily life.

Let’s say guys have a fancy for a girl, but upon knowing that she has many suitors, immediately the average guy will back off. Why is that so? The reason is that he does not have the confidence that he will win the girl, just like I do not have the confidence to win the dance competition. And why is that he does not have the confidence? It might be because he felt that he do not look that good, or he is not that rich, and most importantly felt that he is not able to treat her well enough. And the only why he felt that he cannot reason her well enough will be he does not like her much enough.

In our workplace, we also face competition, what we call “promotion”. Those who felt that they do not create much value to the company will automatically worry about losing the promotion chance. Yet they will carry this little bit of hope that they may somehow get promoted. Whereas those who create tremendous value will know for sure that they are going get a promotion and won’t even bother about the announcement of the promotion. They know if they do not get the recognition they want, they will go to other companies who value their contributions.

Therefore, competition is something, which will spur people to strive for what they want to achieve. One will no longer be afraid of it once they know where they stand and is well prepared. In the process, they enjoy it.

Thanks Giving


A mother read a letter her 18 year old daughter wrote:

Dear Mum,

I thank you for loving me all these years, for taking care of my daily needs, for bringing me up as a Christian. I really appreciate you for all that you have done.

But Mummy, yesterday I realised that the boyfriend I living with has aids. I am so sorry that I have disappointed you. The doctor said that I cannot live till the end of this month.

P.S. Anyway, mum, what I had said above all is not true, what I wanted to say is that I failed my Mathematics.

There, so lets see what we have learnt from here? The mother upon reading the first few sentences got so freaked out and sad that she is almost near to tears. But upon seeing the last sentence, she got so relieved and did not even bother to reprimand her daughter for failing her mathematics. Why is that so? You see, when we compare in this way, the mother is grateful that her daughter will still be alive well and healthy. Then what is the failing of the Mathematics?

In a way, this apply to our daily life. Sometimes, we complain that the sun is too hot but what it is compared to the people who never see the sun (north pole)? Or you complain that the food your mum cook is always the same, but what about those people in africa who do not even know when is their next meal? Or we curse the alarm clock when it rings, but do you see alarm clocks in hospitals? Or we complain that a 9am to 6pm job used up almost all of our time, then what about those who have to work for 12 hours plus?

In fact, if we can be thankful to what we have, we will be so much happier. Like we can be thankful that the sun make us produce Vitamin D. We can be thankful that we get to satisfy our hunger or even experience hunger. We can be thankful that we are alive to switch off the alarm clock. We can be thankful that we have the time from 6pm to 9am (16 hours)to play, eat, sleep and relax. Now people will say is it not tiring to keep giving thanks? Then I ask you, is it not tiring to complain and complain? Ever felt that even after you repeat you whole complain story to so many people and you still do not feel good?

We control our minds, we can choose to look at the good side, or focus on the dark side. Why give weight to something bad and lighten the good things? The more attention we give to the bad things, the more bad things seem to appear and vice versa. As the saying goes," Stress and complains is like darkness, you can never let it go away until you switch on the light".

Dream your dreams, Dreams to Visions


I am sure when you were young, you have an imaginative mind. You will dream yourself to be a lawyer, a doctor or a pop star. However, along the years, you are being reprimanded by teachers for day dreaming. They will knock you back to your senses demanding you to think logically. I am not saying that it is not good to think logically, but they have actually shaped us to be not creative.

You know something? Albert Estein is always at the back of the class day dreaming whenever the teacher is teaching. It is then he actually saw the formula E=MC2. This mathematical formula is actually invented by him through day dreaming! In which he finally work it through and got backings behind the formula. As you see, the power of dreaming can be great. It will make people to work harder and to strive for their goals. It is a source of motivation for them.

Having said that, it is useless if we only know how to day dream and do nothing heading towards it. We must work towards our goal and our dreams will become visions. Don’t be afraid to dream, instead DREAM BIG. Tiger Woods did not become a top golfer overnight. He dreamt of becoming top in his industry since the age of 13! And he finally reached his goal at the age of 23. If you ever wanted to be a pop star, train hard to be qualified. If you ever wanted to start a business and own chains and chains of shops, work towards it! It is those people who dare to dream that make things happen. Ever wondered who are founder of Carrefour and Old Chang Kee? Probably the person behind Old Chang Kee just loved fried food and dreamt that he could have a chain of stalls selling that and he can eat all he want.

When we really create actions towards your goals, your dreams become visions. Dreams will always be dreams unless they become your goals. Visions are something in our mind's eye which is something so strong that spurs us ahead. Uh-huh, did not really know the word until I explain it right? We have seen the word so many times in companies profile la, school motto la, but have we really pondered over the word?

I am not saying that when we are supposed to be working, we spend our time day dreaming though. What I meant was when we have the time, say when we are in the mrt, or before we sleep, allow our imagination to run. Dream whenever we are not doing something. Be it walking or whatsoever. And oh ya, I have been dreaming a lot lately. Why you think I suddenly got so much things to blog. In fact, what I blogging now is only 1/100 of my thoughts.

Here are my dream car:

Cool one right? I took it on my way to lunch. Love it.


Geesh, I supposed you people will start day dreaming from now on right? Haha... hope you dream of me when you are asleep then. Sweet dreams not nightmares hor.

Living is really a Great thing


Have you ever pondered...Just what is life all about, study hard when we are young and work hard when we are old? The answer is NO.

Do you know something? Life is a game. But we are never taught how to play the game. We are brainwashed by the media and by the schools to be POOR! And I mean it, POOR! The saying Study hard ah, the go to a good school then find a good company and do as you are told and hopefully earn enough money to settle you for retirement. Heard that all your life? I bet so. Well, here is the shocking news, we are all taught to be poor, slogging all our lives working under people who know how to play the game of life and of course money.

The actual reason for studying hard is actually to gain knowledge and skills so that we can apply onto your working life. When I say working life, I do not mean working for people. I mean working for yourself! Realize that whenever we slog for others, we do not feel good or excited. But if we were to work for ourself, we get all the passion and desire and drive to keep you towards our goal. When we know how to play the winning game, We will enjoy all that it brings forward. Be it marriage, health, contribution to society so on and so forth. Then people will ask me, but how to work for oneself? I do not know how, I do not have the idea, I do not have the capital. Then I tell what, they are all excuses. You want to know how? Okay, I tell you. Buy Adam Khoo's SSMM. It practically teaches you how. Either you buy the hard copy, or you can click my icon on the right and purchase it. Share among your friends who are interested and download that book. Divide the costs. As easy as that. And you will realize how much impact it creates in your life.

Many people wonder and wonder, think and think, but they never take any action. They wish they are rich, they hope that they can start a business, but they never take that action to find out how. They procrastinate and produce all the different type of excuses but will never take that step. Are you guilty of that? I tell you, I am, until I really make my first move to find out more. Such knowledge is an investment. If I have done it, so should you! Having said that, they are still people who want to do things in their comfort zone, they are not willing to do anything more than they are told to. They are not willing to make small investments to get huge results. So which category do we choose to fall into?

=====================================================

Guess what? We are moving into our new office at Stamford Court in two days time. Wee, I am so excited! But then again if we are to move, it also means that I cannot explore the galleries when I have the free time.Sad sad. Then the guards will not remember me, then they may not allow me to have free entrance. Then even if I want to bring my friends for a free journey also cannot.

Hmm... but to think of the good side, the place will be well lited and also combined with people of other departments. Moreover there will not be any construction going on nearby with all those construction workers scrutinizing you. And the air will be fresher in that sense too.

Saying Sorry


(For man)
There, there, there she goes again. Mad at you for nothing. Somehow, you guess you have apologise. So you did so, BUT you will always add this BUT to ruin you apology. Am I not right? Let me tell you something, if you really want to apologise, do it this way. Look into her eyes and say "I am sorry. Really sorry(FULL STOP)"Nothing more nothing less. If however, you think you did not do anything wrong and not willing to say those words, THEN DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL! Its better than you saying and not meaning it giving sentences like, "Sorry la, Happy or not?" or "Sorry lo, but hor you always blah blah blah". If you say that, I tell you she will never be happy. In fact I am sure you yourselves know that she would not be happy. In that case, why ask? You will be surprised by her reaction by your sincere apology. At least you know even if she did not apologise to you in return (though 80 percent would), she really felt satisfied and happy inside. Is that not you want her to be?

(For Woman)

Now he is all silent. You ask him what, he shakes his head. His face is expressionless. Now, you know he is angry. Guys too play this little trick we girls do when they are angry. They will deny they are angry because guys are supposed to hide their emotions and feelings to appear macho to woman. They are cool on the outside but hot in the inside. So what should you do? Instead of leaving him there to be angry upon himself, or scolding him for not reacting enthusiatically to your stories, just give him a peck on his cheeks and tell him you are sorry. Hold his face towards you and apologise tenderly. Use you sweetest voice you can to do that. Let him feel your sincerity. Soon, you will find a smile cracking across his cheeks. There should always be give and take. If you know somehow you are in the wrong and he is always the one apologising to you, take the first step to say sorry this time. If not, soon he will be fed up that he is always the one giving in to you.

Names to call your partner


I am sure many couples either call their partners either darling or dear dear. Now, now, some couples actually called each other lao bo(wife) and lao gong(husband) which is actually not a good sign. Although when they call themselves that, they thought that it sounds more intimate and close. But they did not know that it may ruin their relationship in the long term. So what should they call each other? The answer is My Man and My Woman.

You see, when couples call themselves that, they are already imagining that they are husbands and wives. As most people know, with a married couple, they are rarely romantic and sweet to each other. For the simple reason, men are wired in their brain to be simulated in their brains whenever they hear the word ’woman’. Even from browsing of magazines, the first thing that caught their eyes will be woman and not wife. Their reaction when they hear woman or lady will be “WOW” and when they hear wife or mother will be “ARGH”. The word woman gives them a feeling of sexiness, feminine and sweetness while wife gives them a feeling of nagging, ragged and hot-tempered.

The same goes to woman. When they hear My Man, they felt a sense of achievement that someone belongs to them. Husbands sound like someone they have to take care like a baby whereas ‘My Man’ seems to rule over her and protect her. Man also gives woman a sense of security and macho ness. Man creates the imaginary of six packs and broad shoulders whereas husbands give them the imaginary of belly pot and balding head.

Well, I believe people are unaware of all the things I had written, but suddenly came to realize that what I said make sense right? So from now on, change the way you call your partner for more exciting days ahead. Anyway, do you realize that I blog on relationships lately? Well, Agnes said that most people are more interested to read on relationships then health. So all the knowledge I have about health shall be kept to myself and friends who verbally ask me than. Anyway, realize my entry is getting shorter? If you lovely readers like to read my stuff, either drops a comment or click the Ads by Google at the left so that I know you enjoy reading and will continue to blog on topics you like.

Adam Khoo


Geesh, guess what? I went to the wealth academy preview by Adam Khoo together with VV and Agnes. Well, I have always been quite a fan of him. Not because he is a millionaire though, but because of his knowledge and personality. Boy, I tell you, he really don't have any AIRS at all. In fact, he is humble and the examples of successful people he gave are usually not himself although he is successful. ALthough he is so well known and so popular, he really don't act like one.

I supposed God favoured me so much that just as I enter the shopping centre, I saw Adam Khoo walking STRAIGHT out towards my direction! I was so enthusiatic that I called out to him.
"Hi Adam Khoo," I exclaimed excitedly.
He give a bit of shocked look, and said "hi"
"I am here for your preview"
He relaxed and was kinda of surprised that such a young person is interested and replied friendly,"Great, see you in there later."

We all went into the Amara Hotel's Level 3 Connection room 3. The place was rather dim with some soft music in the background. After viewing some of clips on him, he came out to speak.

He is a powerful speaker I must admit. He tried his best to engage his audience. I supposed he must be curious why I attended his talk because we are the youngest in the crowd. The rest are old and some in their late thirties. I was one of those he asked why I attended this talk. What I can say is that he really compiles his materials into something very easy to digest. He make us realise how logical some things were which we may not find out ourselves. Like we must save about $3680 per month in order for us to retire at age 80 if we are 35 years old and with $3000 to spend each month. All these are calculated in the sense of future value. Eg a bowl of rice will cost maybe $10 in the future due to inflation.

Throughout his whole presentation, I can tell the people are very interested in what he has to share. His stuff are really good. He teaches us the HOW TO instead of just motivational inspiration like some speakers do. Strongly encourage you people to buy his book or attend his wealth academy (for those who has the money). The academy can really put you into a lot of advantage though.

Anyway, at the end of the presentation, I have the honour to take a picture with him. Here goes,

Trouble Sleeping? Don't be...


I didn't want to share tips on health because not many clicked on the poll on the right. >>>>

But here, I am going to share this knowledge of sleeping well just because of my dear readers Melissa and Desmond.

Now, now, I have the cause and effect explanation. The causes of sleeplessness may be that you screwed up your sleeping routine. You sleep late every night until you got used to it. The other is that you keep your brain too active before you sleep. Needless to say, the effect is you toss and turn before you step into dreamland.

Now let's say you want to change your sleeping time. Example is that you usually sleep say about 2am and wakes at 10am. Then from tomorrow onwards you want to sleep at 10pm. So instead of getting up at 10am, you wake at 8am the next day. The shortage of 2 hours make you really sleepy even before 10pm reaches. Whatever you do, you must tolerate till its 10pm or at least 9.30pm. When the time arrives, you will LOVE your bed.

Now, now let's say that the cause is that your mind is too active. If you are really the type who is determined to sleep early, then do this:

One hour before you want to sleep, take a WARM bathe. Then while waiting for you hair to dye, make a cuppie of warm milk or ginger tea( Lipton's Lemongrass & GInger is nice). Now, switch on some nice soothing music (do not on those which will set you thinking or arouse your emotions). For me, I realise that certain Christian songs is very soothing. If not, if you have, sounds of birds and waves is good. Do some light reading. Read some novels or something which do not need much thinking. Do not tax your brain at this time.

All right, for the last few minutes before you sleep. Switch off all lights and all music and lie on your bed. In order to prevent your mind from wandering, be conscious of your breathing. When you breathe in, be mindful that you are breathing in. When you are breathing out, be mindful of that too. When you concentrate on your breathing, its difficult to think of other things. Do it until you feel drowsy. Then just let go and fall to sleep. Just this few moments of quietness calms your mind and body and soul. So simple, yet so easily overlooked. This is the most important part and should not be skipped. You may skip the others if you are not desperate but not this step.

Hope this helps. Drop comments if it helps. If not, shhhhhhh just come and tell me. Haha.

Women


I was thinking since I have an entry on men, might as well have one for women. Actually women can be easy to understand too. In fact, personally I think they are very easy to coax. You see, woman have this soft side inside them. Some of them may try to hide it trying to act tough to hide that softness in them so that they do not get bullied. Whereas some women just show their sofeness because they find it hard to act tough.

Sometimes they may appear cool because they are not sure of how you feel towards them. In this modern days, girls need a lot of face. They do not express openly how they feel towards you in fear that she may lose face. Having said that, there are also women who cannot hide their expressiveness. They just express almost the same to all people as long as they do not dislike them. But they will be ultra sweet to their already loved ones. I suppose I belong to the second type.

Woman are actually very easily coax when they are angry. Woman goes by emotions. Man goes by logical thinking. They can get angry very fast, but they can actually cool down very fast too if you know how. Ever met an incident when you guys suddenly said something and she got pissed off leaving you pondering what you had said wrongly? You do not realise that because you go with thinking while she goes with her heart. She felt angry because she is aroused by EMOTIONS while you are left confused because you react by THINKING what you had done wrong. The easy way out is to feel for her. Just take her by her both arms gently and look into her eyes and tell her how you felt. She must need to feel what you are feeling to connect with you. Talking and shouting is of NO USE! If you succeed in making her realise that you FEEL for her, then you are there already.

What woman want when they are angry is just that he will coax her. Doing that, shows a long way that he cares for her. And thinking that allowing her to cool down is just the wrong way out. I tell you why. All the while when she is angry with you, she will be waiting anxiously so that you can coax her. She will call to all her friends to complain about you. (Opps, many girls are going to scold me for revealing this. But nvm, because I am also helping them indirectly)And the longer you take to coax her, the MORE people will know. Haha. It only portrays that you did not bother. That she means nothing to you. Okay, lets say you already managed to talk to her after you THOUGHT that she has cool down. But one thing you did not know, is that the duration you take to coax her sinks deeply into her heart.

She might not show that she is angry with you. But deep down, there is such a scar. If repeatedly done and one day you will just lose her. As you can see, woman is so easy to understand. Much easier than man. I am teaching you guys such stuff so that you can have a better and lasting relationships with your loved ones. And I am going to put a curse to this teaching so that casanovas do not abuse this truth. If you guys (cansanovas) are going to use this trick, let you suffer retribution.

Anyway, my words to females. Boyfriends/ husbands are there for you to be sweet to. Do handle them tenderly too. If possible, try not to raise your voice with them. Do not take them for granted. Guys always go soft when you speak tenderly to them. No point screaming at them to do something. It will NEVER get into their ears because it is just not way they want to hear.

All right, enjoy your time with your loved ones with these tips.

Men



I got a lot of insights on men. Actually, they are really pretty to easy to understand I realized. They like chasing for things they do not have and take things that they have for granted. But this do not apply to one category of men which you will find out later.

This behavior began when they are kids. When they are aim for a toy in a shopping centre, they will plead and plead with their parents to get him that. When they finally receive that, they will rush to play with the toy eagerly. But given a while, they got bored with it and lose attention with it. Now, now, let’s say another boy saw interest in that toy; this boy will go all the way out to fight it back. So from here you can see, grown up guys are like the same. They like to chase girls, but when they finally got them, and when the girls are so into them, they lose interest. But if he finds out that other man are wooing her, he will go all ways to win her back.

This clearly explains why in so many relationships around the world, we keep hearing girlfriends complaining that their boyfriends do not treat them as good as before. And the men will always tell them, “that time is when I am pursuing you and want to know you better ma, now we already so close le, no need to do such things one ma.” Then although the man still love her, but they do not show their love (actions and behavior), leaving the girl wondering if he have other girl or that he do not love her.

Either that, men will think,” I realize that my passion for her gone le leh. I got no feel for her liao. How ah?” But the truth is that you must do the first works to feel the first feelings. The passion is always there, it is just that men do not cultivate it. They can say,” no need one la.” No need! And then the next moment men realize is that they are aiming some other woman doing the first works (movies, romantic dinner). And they just said NO NEED. Men will realize that when they flirt with woman, the woman will always appear beautiful.

One thing I realize recently. I found out that STRONG Christian guys are unlike the guys in the world. They have got the pure values in their hearts. They know how to love their girlfriends/ wives, family, friends, strangers. It is that quality that makes them so unbelievably attractive no one in the earthy world has. Because they have faith, they do not doubt the ONE they choose. Once they found the right girl for them, they go all the way out to love the person. And if they have not found the right girl, they will wait until the right girl appears irregardless of the time they have to wait. Of course, this type of guys usually has lots of female friends because they are irresistibly attractive remember?

This also explains why my ex-boyfriend can be pretty romantic out of the blue.

With this, I hope you men who have got a girlfriend to treat them nice and romantic every time you can. If you do not feel like doing so, it only proves that you do not love her. And if you do not love her, what is the point of being together? Just to pass time? Come on wake up, there are many other things more important than relationships like career and health and family.

Children


I never realise that I never hate children as much as I thought I did. In fact, I realise I kinda of like them. I like to see children happy. That explains why I got so excited about Huey's niece that time. She is such a happy girl and is always in laughter. It thrills me quite a lot seeing them happy. All along, I just don’t like children that make a big din crying and shouting like nobody's business and those who are not disciplined. Therefore, it is not children that I hated.

Somehow, I realise if you were to hate something or fear something, then you are not able to love them. Because both cannot come together like oil and water. Its only when you remove the oil(hatred or fear) then only water(love) can flow. I remembered my cousins who are in secondary school used to come to our house monthly to play. I used to take their presence for granted. They laughed and all. Until recently, they have to stay at their house to receive tuition. Then only I realize that our house become so quiet and lifeless without their laughter and all. Then only I realize that children really bring life to a family. All along, they are there, but I never notice nor appreciate.

I did something I never done before last Saturday. I talked to my sister for the first in donkey years. I encouraged her to improve on her grades. I even created a score sheet to be her target. Well, I should say that perhaps I am already immune to her “noise”. She really has the habit of shouting at home. But I supposed without her shouting, the house will really be very quiet. I suppose when people reach a certain age, they don’t feel like shouting, neither do they feel like laughing. Oh, say of laughing, my pastor really knows how to make us laugh. Just attending one service and you will know what I mean.

Stress


Since today is a Sunday, I shall share with you the origin of stress from the bible. Hey, hey don't run away, its really an interesting story.

It all goes back to when Adam and Eve sin at the Garden of Eden. I am sure you all heard of this story. But do you know what is the exact words of God when they ate the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

He said to Adam," Cursed is the ground for the sake;
In toil you shall eat of it
All the days of you life,
Both thorns and thistles it shall
bring forth for you,
And you shall eat the herb of the field.
IN THE SWEAT OF YOUR FACE YOU SHALL EAT BREAD"

From "In the sweat of you face you shall eat bread"
This actually means that from the day he ate the fruit, he have to work hard and experience stress just to feed himself.

However, Jesus paid the price for us(Christians, those who accept him) already. In the garden, when He was given the choice to go back to His Father, or to bear the sins for us by drinking that cup, He chose to drink it and bear ALL of our sins. He bore all the sins and was greatly stressed. He was so stressed that he sweat blood. From then on, we don't have to bear the stress when we BELIEVE that He had bore all of our sweat. It all started in the garden, and it all ended in the garden. Thank you Jesus.

Bragging and speaking ill of others


Just as I thought I got no "food" for you lovely people who are reading my blog, an inspiration got into my mind while I was washing the dishes. Uh-huh, so washing the dishes also allows ideas to pop by. So better go wash dishes. Haha... just kidding.

Anyway, speaking of bragging, do you realise that usually the successful don't brag, neither they put others down? Take for example, a author might have very good sales in his copies, and although the title may seem that he is bragging, you open the book, and will realise he give thanks to those who had helped him. He gives credit to mentor and also to the team which bring to the success of it. For the simple reason, no one man can succeed without the help of others.

However, there are some who seriously wanted to motivate themselves or others therefore they tell people of their plans. To make sure they get their asses working on their plans. Having said so, there are some people who for no reason brag about themselves. And when people do praise them, they might pretend to deny that it is their efforts that they do well, but in their hearts, they thought the whole world of themselves. This is what pride is formed. Soon, they will be proud and not humble. They will forget who is the ones that bring success to finished work. In the past, I might be like that. But now, I know even if I succeed, the glory does not go to me. It goes to Him.

Speaking of speaking ill of others. Ever wonder why people will always say that they should not speak bad of others but positive ones? Well, you know something? Research have shown that in our brains, the speech central controls the whole of our nervous system. Which means to say, what you say, your body will react to it accordingly. Oh I hear some saying in their hearts,"What so I said that she is ugly and I will be ugly?" Yes, exactly, you won't turn ugly at that very instant, but if you keep saying that, soon you will be. So now everyone, better sing praises of others. Because if you say that "you are so clever," there there, you will be clever bit by bit. Of course I am not saying that you anyhow sing praises la. Just speak from you heart. If you see a ugly person, but that person has got great sense of fashion taste and is wearing a fabulous dress. Just say 'hey what a nice dress you have got1 Great taste man. There, your body will catch "Great Taste" and soon you will have great taste.

Then again, if you really happen to see someone wearing the wrong types of things. Don't speak ill behind that person.Don't say,"Oh my Goosh, can you imagine, she really have very bad sense of taste! I really wonder where her fashion taste has done to!" Just go up to him/ her (if they are considered your friends) and tell them that it should be improved. I don't mind people telling me when things go wrong. If I got my zips down, whoever come up and tell me that it is down, oh i will be thankful for that person. At least I will prevent so many more to see my zips down! Now, now now, I am not asking you to go around critizing people's dressing. You tell them if you know how to solve their solutions. Don't just critise and make people feel bad about themselves. Those who speaks ill of others and worry that word will spread to that particular person's hears. As you see, no one blames you for speaking bad things, you yourself subconsciously blames yourself.

Hmm... I must say I am blessed. I must say that my friends I am having are those who speak well of others. They seldom speak ill of others. Even if they do, its when they lose their cool and had said it unintentionally or had had a real bad day. And if you happen to catching me speaking ill of others, then better remind me the speech system control the whole system. Therefore, when we don't gossip, ideas come out. Yeah, I got a few fantastic friends who got business ideas coming out for them. And of course, I also have. And of course, if you happen to have any business ideas and need a partner, you can consider finding me. I am open to ideas but will still work out on the profitability of the idea and gauge if we should go ahead with them.

With this, I hope you appreciate all the good things and people happening around you.

「 Greatly Blessed, Highly Favoured, Deeply Loved 6:23 PM 」

Click


I watched the show ‘Click’ by Adam Sandler on Wednesday with Mel. I had heard many good comments about that show and I must also agree it’s a very good show. This show really knows how to stir up the feelings of woman I supposed. They can make ladies cry one moment and laugh the next moment. Why I say woman? It’s because guys are not that emotional as us and they are better at hiding them.

In this show, the whole morale of the story I interpreted is to cherish your family and also to take care of your health. In short, it is about this guy who got a remote control from an “angel from death” without his knowledge that he is one. The device can pause and fast forward any moment of your life, skip chapters of your life to reach a destination you want. Sounds great? I doubt so and neither does Adam think so. He wanted so much to get his promotion and find that spending time with family boring and tedious. He railed at his kids for disturbing him when he is at work and even fast forward while having sex. In the end, the remote automatically fast forward those chapters of life until he realized that he has gone old. He became the CEO of a company but his lovely wife has left him. His children have found him distant. His father has passed away. In the end, he realized that he is willing to exchange all of the fortunes to have his family.

In our lives, we tend to concentrate our energy on other areas except our family. While, we are young we spend time with friends and boyfriends/ girlfriends but do not devote time to our families. While when people are married, they spend all their lives slogging at work and forsake their health and family.

But have you ever thought when in times of crisis, who are the ones who will stand by your side? When you short of cash, who are the ones who will offer you money without you asking? When you fall ill, who will stay by your side and nurse on you? Is it your friends? I doubt so. Of course I am not saying friends are not important. At least for me, those who bothered to meet up with me or call me or to read my blog (so you are safe, oh but I don’t know you read my blog unless you leave a coment =p), show me that they are my friends and worth my care. It is just that if you are able to show that you care for your friends, why not show care to your family too? I believe they will feel the warmth if you do occasionally express your care and concern for them.

For me, I am learning to show care for them. Slowly, but at least I am heading that direction. Many a times, some people will feel that parents are irritating when they nag. But they care therefore they nag. Sometimes, they just felt that what they have done is not appreciated. Thus the only way they want to capture your attention is to nag at you. Show your appreciation by thanking them and praising them. Sometimes, they are worried that you may turn bad that’s why they reprimand you. Ask them to rest assured that you know what you are doing to let them rest their hearts. Sometimes, they never speak to you but prepare medicine or remedies when you are sick. They may not know how to express verbally their love for you. But now you know they LOVE you. May you enjoy your time spent at home just as much as when you spend with your friends.
