Oh dear, I lost my house keys and I had to wait for my parents to reach home at 5pm+. I had taken a half day's leave with the intention to spend half a day at home doing some outstanding chores. In the end, I had to spend nearly a couple of hours sitting lonely at Old Town coffee surfing on my netbook. Not complaining at all and I feel life has never been this good since since I asked Marie C. for help.
Another friend called me up and sounded very down. She lost a few thousand ringgits trading at Dow Jones this week. As I am not a share person, I have no idea at all, except that it was very volatile recently while reading from the press reports. Well, I consoled her as much as I could in layman's language.
But I thing I admire about this friend is that she really has some spirits to venture into unknown while most of us are happy doing a 9 to 5 job without wanting to rock the boat that carries our comfy lives. She is different and she dares to go out of the box. Her mind is working non stop and ideas coming from nowhere so often.
For this alone, I admire her, as ultimately, I am a conservative person in my appetite for risks and unknowns.

Time Management
In our daily life we encounter so many different obligations, works, jobs and other things that we must do for a day. Due to great number of works that we encounter, it causes for our body to be tired and stress, that sometimes make us old because of the wrinkles it create in our face.
That is why Marie Callas advises I must have good time management concept, and it helps me to manage my working limits from time to time and it will help me to have the right time to rest.
I have a form school friend who is really doing incredibly well in her career now. She's a CFO in a listed company. The group of us is constantly amazed by her ability to juggle her work, family and friends. She's smart naturally (since school days) and together with her good time management, it is no wonder she has done well in her career.
Well, I'm very sure that when you have a time management, you can really improve your life's quality. The key is discipline!

A Thankful Poem
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings

About Thinking
I think I more of a planner than thinker. I am lazy to think. That's why when it comes to IQ tests, I just hate it.
With the sweltering weather lately, it is even worse to think. Things are done as if by routine and I'm beginning to lose the zest for life! I wish for a cooler weather, desperately.
As such, a lot of my decisions can seem quite rash to some people. That's why some people say that i have bad relationship skills.
As I lay on the sofa and drifted in and out of a rather nice doze, I found myself trying hard to think about matters on hand. A bit of meditating according to Marie Callas' instructions certainly helps. Feel more relieved now.
Do you know when I heard of those big verses from some ancient philosophers, somehow I pity them more than admire. They verses are thousands years old however i feel they really do not have answers to their problems. Good thing is that they really thought hard. Better than me at least.
Just because I don’t think, doesn’t mean I’m stupid. Just that I know better than to think that thinking solves anything. Right?
Sorry for this bitching post...

Your Born Gift
You and me sure receive gifts before in a lifetime. What is a gift? It is something that is given for free and to express someone's gratitude for you...there is nothing to be exchanged. It is given intentionally for some reasons.
For us humans, normally we give gifts on special occasions or for special someones. When we talk about occasions, gifts are given on birthdays, graduation, weddings, anniversaries and many more. But there are times that we give gifts for no special reason, we just like to give.
I always remember times when I was dating, I like to buy them some little gifts to show my appreciate for their care. There is nothing to expect from this. It was just a pity that non of the r/s turns out well.
Every mooncake festival, Xmas, chinese new years, I gift my parents too. No reason, I simply want to give them something. All people have the tendency to do that, right?
When we are born, we are showered with some form of natural gift from Heaven. This are all gifts. There is a skill that we personally possess. You know what skill that is in you! Remember to use your gift wisely, use it to succeed and not to ruin your life.

Music
One of the things in life i like best is music. I know nuts about music theories nor any instruments, yet i feel that music is a fundamental part of humans. I listen to all sorts of music. Since young, I have wide taste of music, from asian pop to eclectic jazz fusions from some underground musicians. I listen to classics too.
That was younger years. However, I feel the popular music nowadays is getting worse. There is nothing around that i know will become a classic such that ten years later it will still widely like. I am kinda disappointed.
I have listened to a lot of music lately, not all of it within the comfort genre my ears are used to.
Ti me, good music I find is those which has emotion, a soul. You listen to music that makes you laugh, cry, or just lifts your happy mood up a couple of notches, and you connect to it. It's like the music reaches inside you and touches your heart.
