Today I learnt that writing creates a flawlessly beautiful mirage out of the real world. We begin everything as ideally crafted as we could. We write fantasies and then let it  be trampled in the real world. After some trial and tribulations, we crawl painfully back to the drawing table and start editing our next step. Subsequently, we push our draft out trying to prove that fantasies can actually exist if we try. Torn and tattered again, we came back with tears to our drawing table and start furiously rewriting our story to what the world wants.

 

Today I found out that, A talented person becomes a star while a talented and inspiring person becomes an idol.

Today I learnt that, it’s important to love what you do and give 100% everytime. When that happens, the work cease to a result of obligation but a result of passion. When passion is exluded, the people around become inspired and start giving their 100% as well.

 

Finally went to do some shopping today. Met up with Xiao Jun, the good friend who disappeared from my life for 3 full years, for dinner and got her to shop with me.

Bought some clothes and once again have the determination(though going to be short-lived but the presence of it is comforting) to lose some flab off the important parts of the body. Kind of unbalanced to be have a light top and a heavy bottom. xj said that the bottom seemed to belong to somebody else… Heng, it was not the otherwise. At least no figure, face still pretty. :D

I am gonna share my target, i thought about on my walk home, to do 50 sit ups everyday. Okay la.. 50 is not alot.. I used to do 100 every day. Those were the days when I am not as flabby but have no money to buy clothes.

Life’s cruel.. Average Jane don’t get the best of both worlds….. Though I have a steady income but 1) have no time, 2) have no figure..

Well, at least I get 2 thirds of both worlds.

The primary purpose of travelling is not to see the world. Above this reason, it was to escape from regularities, to meet new people, to craft a new identity and to enjoy life as much as Earth can provide. Life never changes for one who never moves.

I am doing my fair share of travelling now. Around Singapore kind of travelling. It’s not too bad though I prefer entering Changi Airport’s Departure Hall to driving past the runway frequently. I have never drove as much during my first 4 years after passing my TP as last month. It has built up my knowledge on Singapore geography.  Knowledge is empowering. I comfort myself into thinking that, God is forcing me to familiarize myself with Singapore’s geography so that I won’t embarrass myself on my next overseas trip.

Sometimes, people I meet on the way inspires me to become a better person. Every traveler has a story to tell…..

A friend I met about two  years ago in Kunming, Yunnan is back in Singapore. During that time, I just finish my final 3 weeks tour of China while she’s just beginning hers. She planned to travel northwards up China to Russia and taking the Siberian railway to Europe. what she planned for was around 3 months to half a year. I just received her email saying that she’s back. In the end, she took 1 year and a half travelling from Yunnan all the way to South Africa by land crossing numerous countries. She’s definitely an inspiring person.

One of the things I learnt from her is not to be a wishy washy person. When you want to do something, just do it. Time and tide waits for no man. Even if it is just yourself.

Give me a few years, I would do one year travelling too.

That’s Me at the centre! Did an Environment Health Safety (EHS) briefing on confined space last week. Opposite attracts hence audience were more attentive.. One of the highlights of my one and half months of work.

I hope I am not outdated.. But this is so funny !!!

Today, I saw shades of blue across the skies as I was driving towards Changi. Felt like stopping on the road shoulder and start painting.

 

Too much OT could be the result of

1) inefficient worker ; or

2) inefficient company ;or

3) inefficient management

One of life’s greatest regrets happens when

- I put off a date with an important person of my life to some time later.

- The date was meant to try something new which he/she has never done in her life.

- He/She went off to accomplish that matter with some other people.

- I have just broken my promise.

Sorry baby…
