Being grateful

It was raining in the early morning and I had delay my wake up timing. I cannot delay anymore but just have to pull myself out from the comfort zone.

Wake up and was looking through my friends facebook post, everyone was sharing their gratitude towards their friends or who ever assist them in somehow or some way. It kind of given me this impression that alot of people actually know how to acknowledge others. Maybe there should be even more than just like these. Appreciating others can help one self to be more motivated and it can boost confidents! We can help them too! So everyone, lets be grateful and acknowledge everyone who you met, who scolded you, who sitting next to you, who you do not know. And lastly, is you who make this kind of thinking.

My thoughts about me blogging

I realize I had not fulfilling my main ideas for this blog. But I seriously find it alright as I have being sharing right. Habits after habits, I did not change the way I post. I did not look through and I just key in as it is.

I have being very restless everytime after my parade during monday, wednesday and friday. And on tuesday and thursday I will just occupied myself with non effective work or time.

I think the meaningful time was not spend well. So it is time for me to step out of my comfort zone. I think I have to complete the book that Felix gave it to me during his trip to singapore. After which is my effort to keep on going with my flow of good habit.

I am so happy now! I just help Wilfred return 2 books on the other hand, I actually borrow 2 books for myself. It time to work hard and strive more meaningful life. And after today mental health ambassador workshop, I am a ambassador now! There is a certain responsibilities that as a ambassador need to play. So, start in me to show a good example.

See, suppose to talk about my blog and I link to so many stuff. Anyway, I guess I am coming back to blogging le. Keep fire burning!

A dinner with SHINKers!

I am very happy to be with my SHINKers. We are friends, we are brothers and sisters, we are strangers where we meet each others after out hong kong trip. We get together with common interest and common connection that draw us together.

I am very happy to hear from jie ying for sharing that we are friends that is why she do not mind sharing her truth thoughts with us. I love to have people who are not afraid to express their emotion out.

This group created a sense of belonging and I have a group of friends who care and fill a percentage in my heart. I really appreciate them.

Thank you guys!

Study inspiration

I am a marker! Guess this is the first time in a major parade. I have being trying to stay as positive as I could no matter how bright the sun was, how long is the training and the number of re-do I did. Well, it is just the matter of want or not.

After the long hour of training, we were given a privilege to book in back camp the next day before 1pm. And off we go for the night out.

Wen wei, Louis yeo and I went to eat subway for dinner then head to mac Donald and I drink tea. I share with them about my worries for study.

1) I had missed out chances in applying into local University, it is really a waste and I might not be able to enter even I apply.
2) English result was done badly during O level exam. Will always feel that University would not want me due to my result. Even apply to moe, it will be hard. And furthermore, John Goh with GPA of 3.5 also cannot get in. Don't expect I can.
3) Apply degree from informatics academy. Will it be recognize? How well will it be? How will we learn? Will I be hardworking enough and get a first class honour? Does this certification accepted by most MNC and government sector? Will I be working in that line?
4) Study at UniSIM for IT (ERP). Which take 4 years to complete. Waste time and will it be a problem to find a job related? Or will I be working as that?

All these make me a headache. Well, I should be very happy. In my life in NS, I was being inspired by my friends. Some was doing revision for their uni, reading book and newspaper, the will power of getting their work done. It trigger me everytime! I will start to question myself... What make them carry on working or reading? What is the urges that keep thek burning? Why I cannot? What stop me from doing so? Kind of say when I were to compare.

I am very lucky to have friends who actually share with me their way of doing and as what Louis said, it is all about discipline. Well, I think they are someone I should think of when I start procrastinate! Hope I can do my best. Thank you.

Evaluation on My blog

Seriously, I am quite satify with my performance for being so enthu in blogging. I kind of enjoy with what I am doing whenever I can post my thoughts and comments.

I have to admit something. When I post, I tend to procrastinate and hold back some information. Cause I somehow just do not know how to organise my thoughts and put it down here. Also, my ang moh dame chui! And I did not make the effort to read through it and check whether is the post sound right or whether link to what I gonna share. I just don't bother.

So readers, do look through and feel free to comment. If I wrote out of point, or you do not understand what am I writing, do smack me!

To think about it, this post also suppose to link to things around the world. I.e. Singapore flooding issue, change of parliament, etc. I do not see myself posting anything relating these issue. It was kind of waste.

Well, hope I can get more time and improve what I all the while wish to! Hope there will be more readers and more friends can find my blog interesting.

Thank you.

Reading MensHealth

I did not know much about magazine. Know it existence but I just wouldn't spend money buying it just to read. It just like buying newspaper! Am I right!?

I don't think I am right. Newspaper is just a daily update about what is happening around the world while magazine is a series of information relating to a certain issue. But still, I wouldn't want to waste money buying it. On the other hand, I still wish to have it.

I was looking through my twitter and saw MensHealth tweet. Which link me to MensHealth's mobile webpage. Then I started to read the information. Such as shaving expert, how to dress well, etc. Which also start to create the urges to share about reading magazine.

Read newspaper will also be good. Cheap cheap $0.80 only. Should be able to spend that amount everyday bah! It is time to pull up my sock le!

This also remind me about my campmates Louis yeo and Chua siong pau! They kind of remind me that I need to start working hard. Louis have being buying books to read and I did question him how to carry on reading when you felt sleepy. And he reply was depend on how I find the book interesting. And Ah pau was reading a gammer booklet. And we were sharing some thoughts. I told him that sometime I do not understand when I am reading. And he told me I need to understand english and re-read if I have to before proceeding to next sentence. Which is true.

See! They are somebody that I need to learn from. They are really nice! It is time to start working hard!

Baby baby baby!

What is wrong recently? Did government increase the money for baby bonus? Do Singaporean feel more richer than the past? Or just that the world is changing and people get morn horny? Or maybe I am already in another stage of my life!

Well, face the reality then. What happening is that I felt that there are so many people who married and they just give birth. Total there are 5 of them.

There isn't anything wrong! It was just that people around me had progress. They had move to another stage of life. After married, after settle down, after carrying in tummy, now is the holding the burden part. The one month of torture; where both parents need to wake up in the middle of night feed the newly born baby. Coating the baby to sleep, etc. These are experience shared by them.

Doing so, is just the start of baby life. Guess there are more to come. All these hardwork and effort done is all about you and your own responsibilities. Baby is yours, is your precious! And I do believe, parents do reep what they sow! Be a good boy and girls ya!

Enjoy your parenthood for my dear brothers and sisters!

A long time bond

Today is just awesome! Waking up and knowing that I am unable to teach my nephew and niece swimming, I predicted that iwill be aimless for the whole day.

And well indeed. I spend my whole morning surfing net, trying to do some planning. I ended up didn't do it. At around 1130 hrs, I went out to meet Sabrina and I share with her about withdrawing from my youth group. I really have the mentality of quitting. I am really confuse as I feel it mind be very obvious if I were to quit as I cannot make much change if I do not step up to be chair. And personally, I do feel shame as I share with my peers that I will be stepping up.

Anyway, after I got home my elder sister, kim tian and rachel decided to go jurong point. And here we start! We head to jurong point, went to eat ichiban and got some privileges cause of kim tian friend work there. Follow sis to get another mobile charger, went shopping awhile, head to coffee bean for drink, and here came kim peng, follow by 5th aunt and meet Elmay at chinese garden mrt then we head to nex.

Walk and shop and stop. And finally had dinner at food junction. Went to take bus 105 and home sweet home. There is nothing special. But what matter was the presence of each other. We are not friends, we are not stranger! But we are cousins! We do not talk to each other when we are much younger. But we feel that they are present in our family tree. We do not know much about them. But we do now. Is only the gatherness will create this kind of opportunities to get people together.

Yes! Maybe we are much older and we start to interact more. But no matter how, we will still feel the sense of belonging from the same tree we are from. But is just that we have not met. And now is time, that is a long time bond that we had created today.

Family dinner

Family is not equal to friends. Both can be a pillar to lean on but still family will always be the stronger one. Friends come and go, we can choose the friends to be with. On the other hand, family there is only one. A father, a mother, brothers and sisters. There wouldn't be an incident where you can find two mothers carry you in their womb. Sibling can have many. There are just like your friends who staying with you. But whenever you need help, they can be your supporter. When anything happen to you, they will also be the one who will get direct impact from you. They get to feel about you. They get to understand you.

Having a family dinner together on the same table, it is rare to be seem nowadays. Today was a occasion where we celebrate my dad's birthday. And we have a newly member; Rong Ting a.k.a Angie. We went Owen seafood resturant where we discuss in facebook. Firstly, we had a joking manner of discussion and my second sister initialized it. During execution, no money no talk but we had respect each other decision. Overall, we have fun taking photos and playing with baby Angie.

Having a family dinner, I feel the warm and harmony. The presence of everyone is just a gift to keep everyone togetherness. The joys and laughters are the bonus that we get for being a family.

What determine a happy family? I believe is you. One self. There is always anger, fear, and dissapointment. But it is all related to how we react. How we see, and how we hold our grudges. You wanna be happy, just chill everyone down and try smile to them. You feel dissapointed, just tell them while using soft method. Everything is how we handle. If you manage it well, you and your family will also be mindful and happy too!

So what you waiting for! Go and organise a family meal now! Appreciate them by giving your presence to them!
Wish you and your family have a wonderful session.

Dealing with difficult people

Everyone have a choice to make, whether the outcome is a favourable one or a disaster will all voice down to what choice did we choose.
Personally, for the past weeks, I encounted a number of people I feel hard to deal with. And I believe it is really hard. I even came to a point not helping the person and just hope one day he or she met someone who using a method that can deal with them. I should say, I had given up on them.
In a working environment, someone was tasked with roles and responsibilities. Just that he or she did not do their part and you was being arrow to work on it. Was that fair? I don't mind helping but it got worst. You basically can just replace what ever job he or she is doing. And whenever needs help, you will be always the one get involved. Playing tai-ji is whati had learnt from him. And finding easy way out will always cause other feel that you are irresponsible.
Another one was more on commenting others while he or she did not look into mirror.
And what serious is that he or she was not tactful and direct which cause others to feel emotionally and psychologically affected. And one of my friend just summaries it as low in EQ!
A friend of my was being outcasted for very long. I just feel bad or uncomfortable for not telling but I think is good. Anyway, he or she is just very pity and bear hatred.
