Empowerment comes from choice

was a very bored day since i had nothing to do. So, thinking that since i'd nothing better to do, why not make myself useful by doing things that better if not for myself, then for others. So i went into the classified to find for: JOB

Well, i should say, this definitely does not benefits me. I'm only free this week, even after my ORD i'm only free for a week before i left for another week of holiday, this is definitely not a responsible teacher's schedule. It was for my friends.

This is the interesting thing I realised RAMIT SEITHI once commented on his colleague, 'i don't understand why so many people fear to make a direct phone calls...' And yes, i used to do that, but now i don't.

Well, I pass her the number and she's a powerful resistor to make the phone call. The first thing I ask her before i start 'exploding' with encouragements at her is ' why are you so reluctant to make that call?' I think all of us remember most of the first time of everything and some first time i'll never forget in my whole life. And i believe everyone remembered their first phone call to the public, ok went quite well, until at some point it starts to get difficult. Well, she screamed at me 'What do I've to say?!' 'Well, you don't have to say anything, it's you asking them something!'

I think that many of us fear of making public phone calls are generally cos of lack in confident in building relationship with the speaker or thinking it might lead to another emberrassment. But one thing i noticed is that, THE SPEAKER THEMSELVES ARE THINKING THE SAME! So why not use that at your advantage? Moreover, to be honest, the speaker won't even remember who on Earth are we after the next hour or two, so that means we don't need any relationship with the speaker at all! ;)

What i think many did not know is that power comes with choice and hence to attain the certain power, you have to make the right choice. More than ever, the speaker over the phone is praying that you do not make the calls, so that means by making the call, it shatters the other party's prayer and you are already won two-fold, and the power is granted onto you already, unless the other person over the phone is like me, emotionless and cold, quite impatient to conversation with no purpose, so i think i don't fit in customer service at all ;)

To conclude, I hope that many more who read this finally realised that hey, making phone calls are not difficult after all. Got thing to ask, Nothing to ask, just do it. The party don't nkow who you are anyway. They might be thinking u re some mafia anyway.

Gonna make more calls soon, this one's for myself. Cheers! =)

Life's a journey, where do you go?

Hey hey hello! It's freaking late at night ald and I still not sleep yet! Haha ok, here just to kill some time and some reflection to do :)

Haha hey, just bought a book today titled WHY WE WANT YOU TO BE RICH by both U.S powerful real estate player Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump. Seriously I should say, I loved both of them. Not just that they are freaking Rich (Yes Wealth turns me on but I always believe there's a higher purpose in life other than wealth), but they both found their purpose in life. I always look up to oustanding individuals who are hard to knock-down and stand firmly when coming to doing something they want and among those I should say, no one is more influential to me than both of them.

I should say both of them had a secret magnet that attracts me. When i first look at it, i was thinking 'Hey, m i straight? What m i thinking!' Haha then as i start to question more and more, i finally realised why. Many attracts to them cos of their charisma and i agree totally into it. Both are charismatic and powerful. Both are intellectual and smart. Although i agree that Donald Trump will be more ferocious than Robert Kiyosaki, I think Robert will bite well too. Donald Trump thinks big and i think his b*lls are super big too. Robert Kiyosaki is more conservative, but still powerful and clever as well. At one glance it might seems that it is their wealth and power that gave them such influence, but don't be fooled.

I always believe that no matter how well you fake yourself, you groom yourself or pretend to be someone else, YOUR character can always be predicted by a first look. And by looking at both Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki, both possessed a magical character that i could not decipher until I read the title today. Then i realised, both are more than just powerful economic players: they are Great teachers as well!

There's a secret among the rich just like everyone has secret. But what makes money the roots of 'all' evil is that the rich kept their secrets to keep them rich! And this is how both donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki comes in. Donald Trump wrote The America we deserve (which i yet to read) to educate the financial catastrophe, dollar power, patriotism and even terrorism of America. He creates the awareness of the social politics in America, waking them up from the 'American Dream' and educates people to gain financial wealth through more books, TV the Apprentice and even boardgames. Rich is getting richer and so should we too. Robert Kiyaosaki ok the other hand motivates readers, inspire those who had not dare to step out of lower or middle class to do something big. We will always remember his RICH DAD POOR DAD series and Cashflow 101, the way we shares the secrets of wealth. And thus i think, they are good examples of what everyone should do too.

Teahching is rewarding, because it is more benevolent to pass on something and knowledge that is part of you, seeing it grows and nurture on another being, witnessing another being benefits from it. If education is one of the root to eradicate poverty, to improve a person's quality of life, to achieve gender equality and many many other reasons that we memorized in school, then isn't teachers are more than just a career but missionaries or crusaders, guiding our communities towards a greater purpose.

Maybe it is them that inspired me to be a responsible teacher if i were to be one. And i think teachers are more than just teachers too. Now i know.

If life's a journey, i know my life at one point, maybe is to pass on something from me to others.
If life's a journey, What will yours be?

Happy night tonight, may peace be with you ;) Ciao~ :)

NEW SKIN!

Haha well, I think that a leader should possess the ability to change before their environment force them to. If so, then i don't think i'm a good one!

Haha well, the previous one kinda 'closed down', so now using a new skin. Not bad huh? Of cos lahz, gotta see who choose one mahz... *evil laugh*

Ok, it's kinda nice. Hope this one can use longer though! X)

Ciao!

Good Run! ;)

Hey yohz peeps! Haha maybe blogging is one way to save some time. Haha blogging again!

Haha Today's sucha happy day, went running for the NEW BALANCE REAL RUN at changi, tell ya, you might feels that it's a suffering for the 10k but you will feel real shiok after it! ;) And best still, met my former classmate and chatted a little. It's always exciting to meet someone you knew! Now I've one more running fren into my team. Haha currently 2 :P

Haha well, today's such a puty that i did not bring any camera or my camera phone along, otherwise sure tooks lots of pix. Haha love sight-seeing... *OK! OK!* xD

Ok, well, today gotta post about something right? Then that reminds me of some test my buddy took over FB. It's a personality test or something then one of the question is what drives you crazy in a sweet fresh r/s:

a. Your parents hate your in-laws
b. Your partner does not have a clean break with her ex
c. There's a third party in the r/s
d. You and your partner can't agree on everything about the wedding

And then i choose c lahz. Haha you should see his reaction:"Wah! Next time your both sides pulled and stretched you then you know!" Haha well, then the idealistic philosopher me just roll my eyes:how bad can it be?

Well, I just took a horoscope test over the FB and they say Leo is a passionate and mindless lover... and well i'm agree to that. It seems that one of my goal in life is to find a partner who can love each other sweet and live happily ever after. sounds simple? That simple, and i know girls these days aren't that simple anymore. It seems to me that my life will revolves around my partner and i still nod my head to it. We all know one day that one day we are gonna have a family on my own, I'm gonna be a father. But bcos i'm someone's son, does that means I'm gonna give up my family cos my parents don't agree with the in-laws? Crudely, haha think the elders can sort things out themselves. But if there's a third part, will there still be a relationship between us at all? Do we still have a fight over in-laws? So, i don't think my buddy will understand that point =)

Well, more well-s, think I gotta be strong and stronger. sometimes in life after a fall, we gotta pick ourselves up again. Once i told someone, have faith, for faith is a life bouy which will save you even if you fall off from your life boat again and again.

Think after a failed relationship it did crippled me, but a true spear have to go through endless flame, may feel hard now, may not feel that attended to now, but one day i will. Learn from the mistakes in the past, be a better person.

One day I will find what one want, it's not now then it's will be soon.

No hurry, peace at heart.

Ciao~ =)

CSI: victim died of boredom!

Hey yohz peeps! Today seriously gonna be the-another-worst-day in my whole life. So super bored today. Hmm it seems like my life's getting from bad to worst. Wanna buy a few days of my life from me, anyone?? If only your days can be traded, at least they are of some use XS

Well, today did quite travelled a lot. Firstly went over to SimLim for an interview (or should i say a visit). Well, my friend kinda introduce me to his friend, who's hiring some help out for the coming IT show. But in the end it ended up as just a face-to-face say-hi-thingy, she took down my no. and i just left. They didn't even told me anything lahz. Think this one's screwed.

Secondly I ended up myself at IKEA Tampines. Initially I was thinking of visiting COURTS too, but in the end gave up cos IKEA is not just huge: WARNING! IT'S ENORMOUS! And i should say IKEA floor planner is a brilliant person, cos the way they design their maze is such that YOU WILL HAVE TO PASS BY THEIR EVERY PRODUCT BEFORE LEAVING THAT PLACE. Wow, and that also means going to the toilets too. Smart smart... Anyway, it's quite enjoying too: sight-seeing and escaping from the scorching weather. Dunno why but how would i wish i could breakfree from my financial chain and attained limitless freedom right now, the first thing i'm gonna do is to furnish my home into a 5-star room. Dunno why living fancy turns me on too. Well, who don't wanna live comfortably anyway =)

Then lastly, the last stop of my today's journey is to book my BTT at CDC. And i should say damn it, I dragged myself there, toasted and latargic, and they are closed. Diesel anyone? I'm gonna burn that place :S

Well, sometimes... Ok, MANY TIMES i'm kinda envy my friends who are out there too. Haha ok, I know that grass is not always greener on the other side, but different people have different taste towards different grass right? Mayb I like paler green grasses more? X) But apart from the tasting of grasses like cows, at least they had the freedom to taste the grasses outside. Or at least they are tasting grasses outside? Well, I think it's after today that i know my character more.

First: I envy other's everything
Second: I wanna have everything.
Third: I can't do nothing.

It's like, doing nothing is killing me man!!! I'm just felt so de-tached from the World! Well, think positive think positive right now... Go find a job.

Well, think boredom's gonna drive me mad for a few more days now, still thinking of how to spend my coming block leave too. Hope there's at least something for me to do. Free labour, anyone?? xD I must as well sell away myself to India.

Ok, gonna find something to do. Having morale issues now *sulk* Ciao!

Faking a smile to live my day

Hey yohz peeps! I should say, today has been such a disturbing day. Well, fought with mum today, and i think she still didn't get my point.

Well, it started of from a very very small thing. It first started of with me booking in today this afternoon. Because normally my parents will know what time i'm booking in and they will ask me when it's my booking in time soon. Then this time, for i dunno what reason, she didn't ask so i ask her what's the plan today. Then the first flare of battle began...

Firstly she said she has many things to do today. Ok, although i know ME as SON shouldn't be complacent, what is she trying to say to me?! It's 3 hours to my book in time man! Ok, then furious and panicked me, stunned by her going-to-be busy programmes and i still have to return a rent VCD later, I proposed that I leave now to return myVCD, rush home to shower then book in with friends by taxi; at least if i leave now i still got time, at least i ve ASSURANCE! Then she said, "Why do you have to say it like that lehz? You like not happy lahz." WHAT?! Of course! I'm panicking. Later you'll say is my fault for you speeding even though i might be the one waiting for you all!! I'd enough! Ok, that's ONE.

Next, She started to nag. I dunno why, I'm getting more and more allergic to nagging, don't mind complaining, but not nagging. Then suddenly I dunno why she talked about failures in modern education... Filial peity... Manners... Dunno what's the qn she asked, but i rmemberd my ans,"then i'll live opposite you lohz!" - cheekily. Ok, that suppose to be a joke, but she took it too seriously. First, it's a joke, even if it's not a joke, I'm just trying to tell her that now SONs and DAUGHTERs prefer to live away NOT BCOS THEY WANNA DUMP THEIR PARENTS ONE SIDE, but THEY RESPECT PRIVATE SPACE! Let's face it, IF i wanna dump you, I would've MIGRATED. So, apperently she didn't see my point. Then she started saying,"SO everytime you wanna do CIP is it cos of SOME CERT or KILL TIME?(!)" OMG!!! M I STILL HER SON?!

It have been a long long time I wanted to move out away from this house and live on my own. There are many many things I wanted to thrash, point it out to my parents telling them "Hey! I'm your grown up son now. Please don't talk to me like you Teenage son, please respect me now!" But everytime the more i wanted to tell them, to vomit out everything, then i'll think, hey they are my parents after all; forget it. But issit because that they are my parents then i shouldn't fight for my stand?!

I know i know, actually i gotta admit, my parents are good parents too. I know we are not a carefree family, at times they're trying to make end meets but they're just not saying out. Sometimes I'm glad i got such a safe envivronment to live in and i'm grateful for it.

BUT on the other hand, I hate talking to my mum. She always think that she's right. Even if she is, she will argue till she isn't! Wow, now i know where my fantastic debating skills come from man. No wonder my buddy say i no need a knife in my kitchen, my mouth are sharp enough man *thanks buddy! XS * She say she sacrifice for 20years and rear such a disrespectful son, I'll say after 20years you still didn't know how to talk to me sensitively, do you know me after 20years!? I can give in for another 5y, 10 y or 20y, but that is so not myself! Ok, i admit that i'm demanding, fast and dominating, but i can't give in and let you wrong me everytime! No wonder she said before, she and I can't live together one.

I was thinking mayb really in the future, I'll move out and live by myself if i can afford to. I'm already prepared and imagining it. But don't get it wrong like my mum, I still LOVE my family. Just that mayb if i love them, i shouldn't give them more misery at all. Not that I'm dumping them, I'll still accompany them, but living a no no. Sure fight.

But to think about it, my sister is still young. Shouldn't let her know this yet. She will understand and admit I should if she matures soon.

Maybe sometimes, love means to give it up. I wanna be rich, and i'll return them all that they had sacrificed and support them. thanks Mum thanks Dad.

Ciao :(
