New Life, NEW S H O E S

Life = Chocolates?? Nay, I say strawberry n cream w scones! It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance It's the dream afraid of walking that never takes the chance It's the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live

Frus

Reminds me of a friend and it's now my signature slogan. Bad huh? Negative? Disappointed? Trying to survive? My long lost friend uses this nick and sometimes I wonder what is he frustrated about? I'm still the "maybe" or "perhaps" after so many years. Somehow, our email addresses and nick really reveals something about us. Something good. I got some answers today and it really matched what someone has told me on Sunday. Take charge! What a word! Not that I'm anything far from it but it's the real take charge time. Found no butterflies in stomach this time.
Had a new opportunity tomorrow, going for it even though I don't "feel" very much into it. It's politically right to build relationships someimes. I'm happy that Thursday's here. I love Thursday, it's the new Friday but am still in suit tomorrow for the 1st impression thingy. I want to protest! We should revamp dress code at work. If mindsets, working styles and expectations have changed, why stick to the old? Be relevant! My fellow mates. Maybe, that's why I get comments that I'm a different breed of XX prac. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm the one getting the culture shock or those working with me? Refused to budge and insist on change. Something from my fav korean show, azhar azhar fighting! Keep on fighting! EnW

Influencing the mind

Another kinda perspective for now.
My initial thoughts:
Well, apparently, some top performer in a certain arena have a sucky attitude! Well, thought that IT had made it big and started showing disrespect to others. Didn't you realise that the world is better and mountains are higner than what you can see now?
It's true, hard work and perserverance with some brains will bring you to the top, but you need character to stay there!
After some thinking:
We shall come back to the topic of blogging, is it a social responsibility to know what to blog and what not? How do you draw the line? Is it a avenue to boost up one's ego? Can you write anything without shouldering any responsibility?
Yes, a blog can be popular but is it giving out the right message? For e.g, Blogs with sexual contents can be popular but is it right? It's similar to a Plaguebong magazine, get the young boys hooked by 13 and we'll get a generation of customers who are addicted to us. That's capturing via visual, if you haven't notice.
Someone commented that my blog's short but it a'int matter to me cos I'm writing quality stuff and others are feeding on my thoughts which means I'm influencing others positively.........Good night!

I realised.....................

Decided that this blog shall be dressed in tangy red today, except for some bold lites. I realised that we can be in denial at times. Many days ago, I overheard a conversation. It goes like this: Snr speaking to Jnr. Snr says, I realised that you guys are going to shift to another and me still here? Jnr says "Oh, I don't know wor". Not that he doesn't know, he has been "secretly" involved in the Great Conspiracy with another Jnr. Complete Denial! And the other day, I was in a conversation. It goes like this : Is that gal someone you like? Nay, she's just someone special and I'm giving more attention to her. Hello? You like her and you want to be with her? Half-denial! Alway happens in Daze Of Your Life. Then, I also realised that we can be very critical at times. Today, in another conversation. 1 girl spoke to another woman. Hmm, how come the thing is like this, how come, did you do this, do that? The woman wanted to defend herself but she didn't as she was observing her. This girl must have gotten it bad somehow, which made her critical. I realised that we can be amusing at times. It goes like this : Wow, we are having a karaoke night out arh? On! Me go download the latest "long hu bang" songs (now defunct) OR the latest top ten mandarin hits and listen/practise it with my brand new MP3. Better do it fast, the session in 2 week's time. Wahaha! Talking about in the limelight? Lastly, I realised that my dog thinks that I'm gullible at times. Want to know how IT sees me? It goes like this : Heh, I see something in her hands. I will sit, bark, fetch toy toy, roll over and give you my hand hand and when she says good boy, clever boy, I'll get my dog biscuit, yum yum! How about another one? OR I'll act sulky, bark non-stop and vent it out on my toys! I Want My Biscuits! In the end, I was fooled, IT got 3 biscuits. EnW

Adapt-tion

Just how adaptive can one be when placed in an entirely different environment?
A few months ago, I was mentally prepared to accept a new challenge in my life. A turning point? Excitement? An opportunity that presented in this cairos time? Though butterflies in stomach for the very 1st time, I took it!
What? I didn't realise this is going to be the best and the worst challenge ever. Faced with a different breed of everything. A complete opposite, I must be mad!
All is not lost I must say, in everything offensiveness and defensiveness faced, made me stronger. What kept me going -"I must not be afraid. The harder and more impossible it seems, the more stubborn I became. If I must dig, it would be deeper into the challenge." I stood on with divine directions. True, we never know what tomorrow brings. Countless times, the greatest satisfaction comes when we step outta our comfort zone and exceed beyond our last records. It's liken to a sprinter who trains hard and pushes himself to outdo his performance everytime. As a sprinter by nature, I sprint towards the prize of my upward calling. Sorry guys, can't run long distance physically though.....................:)
But hey, hang in there, runner! The finishing line's near. Make haste, make haste..............oops my impatience's showing................pardon me? EnW

While in favour

Having some time these days, I started to think about the importance of life. Question is, what are the more important things in life? How about people? Do you spend time with our loved ones, catch up with good friends who always stood by you and get to know people around you who may be interested to know you more and become a friend? For me, questions like did I speak with him today? Was it a rush affair or taking time to commune in details. Many times, I'm amazed at his patience and belief in me. Think about it, if someone you loved or you knew departed today, moments of thoughts are "I should have, could have and regretted doing this or that?" Many times, my mind would go blank in attempting to respond to such a question. First thoughts :It would be a lonely world as there is one less person, believing, loving and supporting me. Even now, I freeze. While in favour, let's us re-think about people..................... EnW

Healing

Welcome Home! So, it was a full 2 days rest. Finally dragged myself out of bed, inclusive of pain. Hopped into vehicle 240 and headed back to where I should belong. So, how come her face looked so black every morning? The man asked another man. He replied "she's an atomic bomb in the morning". Obviously, he's not decieved ! He is still sure that she a'int a morning person. Ironic. Ironic. So, it's welcome back, with an extra cushion for the chair. Argh, that's much better with relief. So, it wasn't so difficult after all, strength from above, determination from within. Words of care and kindness applied today. Hurts go away, pain go away...........and someone else not me, had a fall yesterday. So, finally where did I go? Acupuncture with electrons. So, I said all bad things must come to an end as I bid the pain and tears bye bye. So, soon wounds will be healed with renewed courage and new dreams. So, what you see is what you get. Shall believe and meditate. So, it's time to sign off................still in the process of healing.

Blogging Personality

Somewhat true and false?? Somewhat true and false??

Time on hand.............ponder

Bad things do happen to good people? And in this instance, me. Following the saga, I went to visit Doc Margaret and realised that I had a fracture and need to wait for new tissue growth before attempting any exercise. Darn…………..meaning you a’int gonna see me at Amore for a couple of weeks. The good thing is they accept MC for extension. Bengay, a pain relieving cream is now my all time companion. All I can do is rest and massage with the formulae diligently! Dunno if Mrs Tehleep will be reading this on behalf of Mr Opibeem or shall I sent an link over as a kind gesture. Perhaps they should employ me to look into their safety and operational issues? Still on unresolved issues, I ought to thank them for motivating me towards writing the blog, however, am still adamant on 1 thing………………..Boycott! Boycott! Boycott visit! However, having a sweet tooth, I may secretly doggie-bag the infamous eye bleed and also rustyberet cheesecake? Please stop me, fellow bloggers. Have you sent a wrong sms before? I did today and it wasn't something funny. It's a nasty and predictive sms. Unintended recipient seems ok after my explanation but who knows?? And as demonstrated here………………… The result of a bad tailbone………………….still resolving. Many thanks for accompanying me in ponder tonight. EnW

Y Blog?

Why do people blog? B4 I became a blogger, I often asked y do ppl blog?? Aren't we having lesser and lesser privacy with invasions of hps, smses, emails, msning and not forgetting calls which resulted from pass me on tel listing........sure sounds familar? On blogging, 1) Blog it when you like that someone but have no courage to reveal 2) Blog it when dislike that someone for the things you were made to accept 3) Blog it when you are happy 4) Blog it when you are sad 5) Blog it when you have nothing to say 6) Blog it when you have lotsa comments 7) Blog it! Out of habit? Humans are habitual creatures, once we find a way to make ourselves feel "good", we are all game for it. It is a tool for expressing yet another tool of habit. Now, why did I even start blogging?? My 2 cents worth of peace............... EnW

Something not me

An achievement on Saturday, 15 Oct 2005 Can't cook though :) Me, eye n hand power

Lunch Or Brunch?

Oops, almost lunch time. Me am working from home, suffering from a back ache though. Y? I would blame it on Opibeem & Tehleap Pte Ltd. I know many of you patronize them but the staff simply walked away when I slipped and fell in their outlet 1 Saturday ago. The reply from the manager regs my complaint?? " I'm sorry hor, mdm. will educate our staff further...seems to tell me that I should claim from my own insurance instead. Well, finally found the reason why we are lacking behind in customer service, with erhm, some pain included. Someone offered to fetch me to the doc.......................... touched i would say. Others are excited for my 1st blog and 1 frd has set up hers, "BAGWHORE"?? Still catching up on office email....................or snail mail? Took me forever time to access. Sigh, thumbs up for yahoo man! Hmm, thot of going gym, but with this ache "blessed" by Mr Opibeem, I tik it will take another few weeks before the next kickbox. I miss gyming.............................sob sob To all who are working today! Slog on! EnW
