Reach for the stars this new year

Most of our new year resolution revolve around achieving something, be it personal or work wise. So here are some steps to help u guys reach for the stars this new year.

1. A can-do attitude, make it happen and take it for granted that you will succeed.
2. Take action quickly, dont waste time over planning
3. Aim high, be realistic and demanding of oneself
4. Meticulous planning, break projects into manageable bite sized chuncks
5. Quick thinking, take advantage of opportunities and be decisive
6. Willing to sacrifice, deny things that dont contribute to your success
7. Stomach for struggle, enjoy the process and the progress
8. A desire to achieve, be energised when objectives are met

Watch a successful person and you can become discouraged or encouraged - the choice is yours

Twenty Ten

2010

its resolution time again

i've decided to keep my resolution simple this time round (in hopes that i will keep it this time)

so here it goes

1. To save for a greater cause
2. To be gym-ing at least 3 times a week
3. To read through the Bible once

So as easy as 1, 2, 3

Christmas HK trip

Christmas in Hong Kong

Its my first time going to hong kong and its my first time spending christmas overseas. Lovely weather and food. Its was nice and cold with occassional chills but we were all nice and warm under our jackets and starbucks hot choc! Enjoyed myself as I've always been a big fan of dim sum. In terms of shopping, we spent the most time in H&M and Esprit. In comparison, bangkok is still my kind of shopping. It was overall a very good trip, as we did a mixture of sightseeing and eating. I had a great travel partner though, someone who knows what i wanna eat and knows what i wanna do. Am looking forward to the next trip!

Feeling the same way all over again

How can you be so sure

Recognising the one at first sight

Am i skeptical or am i right

Only time will tell, only time will tell

Feeling the same way all over again

Feeling like a balloon floating away

Being in no man's land

Where nothing matters, nothing at all

Would it sustain or would it not

Its between you and me

The ball is in my court

What can i say, only time will tell

Christmas

Have you been to Orchard recently, its crazy! The place is packed with people on the streets and seriously they are just on the streets. People just hang around Orchard Road walking up and down or just standing around. Even in the malls, there are not much people in the shops, but just standing along the corridors. Very interesting...

Hey Mei....

Hey Mei

What do you say?

You and me

Can we play?

This game

Where we can blame

A guy called Cupid

For making us feel this stupid

For making us feel

So alive, so real?

For making us think

Could this be the real deal?

Hey Mei

What do you say?

Should we or should we not

Walk on this wild side?

Can we or can we not

Brighten up this dark night?

Are you ready

To take a chance on me?

Just as I am steady

You get what you see

Hey Mei

What do you say?

I'll be true

Dont wanna mislead

I want your faith, hope and trust

Thats exactly what i need

A lil more on the top

Would certainly be a bonus

A lil less and

I'll have to go back to Cronus

To complain about Cupid

For making me look this stupid..

So Mei

What do you say?

Looking at her

Looking at her reminds me of someone familiar

How lost she felt

The search for an answer

The denial

How many times have we all gone through this

Its better to spend time alone

Pure and innocence

In exchange for a story of deceit

How can it turn so wrong

Why isnt there any repentance

She washes her eyes with tears

Stare blankly into space

Past memories fill her mind

Lots of maybe and what ifs

Trying to find an answer

Trying to get a closure

The simplest thing in life is always the hardest to achieve

its sunday!

Have been pretty tight up at work and head to bed at 10pm every night. Good thing is that I've been pretty consistent in my gym routine, think i should shed some pounds in view of the upcoming festive season. Love the festive decoration along orchard! Its almost end of the year, and i dont think i have achieved any of my new year resolution for 2009.

family day out at royal china

In the mood to blog

I'm in the mood to blog, many thoughts flooding in, it may be scattered and random but trust me its good :P

Has been sick for the past week, was coughing and sneezing and wasnt able to hit them gym. Not being able to hit the gym made me feel really uncomfortable. I'm no gym freak, as you guys know, but its more of an upkeep session for myself. I dont set any targets for myself, in terms of weight lost, as long as i feel good in what i wear.

So I feel rather uncomfortable or unhealthy for not hitting the gym, so i've decided to come out with a little plan for myself. Plans are only great unless they are executed. So I've plan to wake up early in the morning (5.30am) to go to the gym before i head to work. Would do that at least twice a week during the weekdays. Thats the BIG PLAN!!

Have been rather busy at work due to new responsibilities, really thank God for moving obstacles at work. Its really a challenge to make your work a piece of worship to God, but the result is amazing; you feel more charged and fruitful.

Ailin's wedding is drawing nearer and i still have not got down to complete the emcee script. I would have to get it done tonight. I'm so excited that she is married, I'm so happy for her, her other half is such an amazing person.

I need to get my place packed, maybe i should set up a plan for that... hmmmm sounds like a plan!

My sis is coming over to my place to camp for a few nights, exciting!!!! Its like a sleepover!!!

End of thoughts...... need to start acting......

Blue

I'm down with flu and I feel blue.... heading to bed to get some rest

Oh my new phone is here... yeah... after all the hassels. I heart my phone, am getting use to the qwerty key pad though, cant walk and sms now...

Medicine kicking in.... i have to go.... would blog more...

I love sundays

Its sunday and it has been a long time since i've met up with my sister. After our sunday service, we headed off to this jap place in illumina for lunch. Its liken marche syle, but you take your own orders using an intelligent pen!! The jap place is located on the level before the theatres (located behind the escalators) and yes i cant remeber the name of the place. The food is rather tasty but i wont say its authentic japanese, however the novelty of taking your own order is pretty fun!

After lunch, we attended the Hossan Leong Show. It was 100 mins of laughter, however there were a lot of sponsor promotion during the show, which makes it seem like a variety program instead. I would say there are parts of the program that are pure witty and outright smart. If you are expecting a pure stand up performance liken ellen or russell peters, then you would be in for some disappointment. Think stand up + musical + occassional sponsor advertisements and you would be in for a treat

Phone Ordeal

As you all my know, my LG phone has died on me and I am using a super old Nokia mobile. Decided to get a new phone as I'm pretty ashamed of the Nokia that I'm using. Trust me, you would giggle when you see it too!! So i've decided to get a new phone!!

I'm not a geeky person; aint looking for fantastic specs, just a QWERTY keypad and great camera function at an affordable price. So I have decided on the Samsung Omnia Pro B7320. Well it doesnt have a great camera function, but u cant have it all.

So i decided to purchase the phone online, you cant imagine the amount of time i've spent to try to purchase it online. Think it would be a lot faster if i get it from the shop directly. After about an hour, I finally got to the last portion - to indicate a delivery time. Guess what, they only deliver during office hours from Monday to Friday. You have no idea how irritated i was!!!!! So i didnt get my phone in the end... arghhhh...

Enough about the phone, its been a while since i've blogged. Have been pretty busy with work and catching up with friends and just pure laziness. I've decided to try something new this week, am gonna hit the gym in the morning before work. Not too sure how it will work out though but i would keep you guys updated.

I've to hit the bed now, got to be up at 5.30 to start my newly found regime.

Malacca Trip

yummy japanese

Communication

Do you know why you have 2 ears?

This is so that we would listen twice as much as we talk,

as a fool delights in airing his own opinions.

You cant love what you dont know

You cant be truly loved if you are not truly known

The only way to know or to be known by others is to communicate -

openly, honestly, sincerely and humbly

Only when we humble ourselves, can we see God's grace transforming us

My phone is full of surprises

My wonderful LG phone has died on me. Yup it showed signs of failing, the display was blinking, flipped itself the other way round. However I can still answer calls, just that i have no idea who is calling. So that would be goodbye to my mobile and hello to a spare phone for the moment.

Wisdom

Wisdom is the art of living skillfully in whatever actual conditions we find ourselves

Patience is an expression of trust in God

Faith is when you say "I dont understand, but I thank God"

The Writer's Block

Am thinking of blogging about something, but am having the writter's block. Its when you have so much in you, but no idea how to pen it down or get it flowing.

I think in life, there are a few major bases that we need to cover, liken baseball. The first base is Religion, second base is family, third base is career and fourth base is relationship.

Why is religion the first base? Simply because, when all else fails, God wont fail. He is your stronghold and your life is centred around it. I'm not trying to say I'm a staunch Christian, but I try to cover my base.

Second base is family, family is where we grow up in, family is where we are molded, family gives us our sense of belonging. Even a nation is build on a family nucleus. Family is very important to me, I try to spend more time with my family and I just love having family lunches. Even the simplest grocery shopping with my mum can bring a smile to my face :)

Third base is career, here is where we climb up the corporate ladder. Good thing for ladies , we can always take the easy way out and be a housewife. Haha. Career is where we earn our bread and butter and give back to our first and second base

Forth base is relationship, be it friends or significant other half. Friends are those who laugh with you when you are silly, hear you cry over the phone and give you the occassional surprises. Significant other half is the one that you would settle down with and build your own family. The other half may not be the perfect person but is someone whom you can live without. You can never search for that person, that person just come into your life when you least expect it. Thats the beauty of it all.
