I found this old photo of Cookie and decided to post it. I think he’s cute (lolz), and although he’s no longer being taken care of by me, it’s always nice once in a while to look at the photo of this silly dog that loved to chew rags and prance around the house. It’s [...]
I don’t know what it was for Friday the 13th for you, but from what I heard from one of my friends, it was a horrendous experience. I had a quick email that summarized it all, and the root of it sounded like conspiracy and backstabbing to me.
There was a glitch in some paperwork in [...]
Well, you know life sucks when you’re drenched in the rain waiting for a cab to show up only to know that you are going to have to pay an extra $4 for calls, right? It seems that most cabs aren’t going to wait around for you to call them - they are also in [...]
Have you thrown away your old dreams?
When you were little, did you dream of being Superman or Spiderman… and then stopped living in that fascination of being a hero? When you loved someone a long time ago… but just only in your dream, did you stop feeling love for that dream? When you declared you would [...]

As usual, Zora whom I mentioned in my previous post (you can visit her site to get a feel for NLP in a different language… haha) and I have this weird connection. She was reading the pirated version of “Master Your Mind Design Your Destiny†that for some strange reason was translated into Czech and [...]
I just completed a series of trainings in schools and in corporations that got me thinking – in reality, we are all extremely pampered and lazy individuals, and without an external object of competition, without a group of people pushing us on, we’ll never move forward. This is the reality of goal setting. The truth [...]
I can’t really emphasize this enough. Appreciation gives the recipient energy, but more importantly, when you give appreciation, that gives you energy. It gives you a moment to think about how much you really know the other person in the first place. For instance, I often write notes to my employees. And if I haven’t, [...]
Not too long ago, I was invited to a wedding. My friend, Joash Chee, was getting married. Well, a friend whom I’ve known since I was in Secondary Two, that is. The strange thing is that he remembered me from the invitation list that connected another mutual friend and classmate, Terence Teh, through his wife, [...]
