A visit to the home

I was fortunate enough to receive an invite by WS to visit the home of disabled children. It was earlier today and I find the need to immediately blog about it.

I haven't been to a home to visit before. Only see it from outside. And I said I wanna do more for the community and this was the chance!

So WS picked me up from my house, and we picked another friend of hers and we were off to the home after breakfast. When we reached, I too was worried I could not be able to face them. But the feeling as I walked in was just overwhelming. You can see smiles on their faces when they have visitors. That just melts the heart and at the same time, I fought the tears that wanted to fall down. It is heartbreaking to see them being abandoned by their parents to this home. Some of the kids are very lively, kicking around, actively running. We saw another group of people donating things like cooking oil, rice, milk powders. This home houses 76 disabled children with 14 working adults to look after them. We've planned for the next trip there again.

Bless the people that looks after the place and bless the children as they grow up in an environment that is different from others. The guys here can do with more help and support in terms of loving care and monetary and materials.

Can't wait for the next visit.

Wow..new heights!!

I know I've been a bit passive here. It's been months since I last blogged!

Anyway, it's been a good year till now. Hectic, but good. Seems like a year that I feel like I'm "fly"ing. :)

So work's been going on great. Too much of work though...but I'm coping. Already made my trip to Sydney...TWICE! Hehe...short business trips. But then, there is going to be another later on, when we start moving into our project in Perth/Adelaide. Can't wait! Gonna make my way to Brisbane to visit the bunch of buzzer friends too!

Hmm..I kinda missed my deadlines to achieve my targets. Now need to sit and rethink and rework my goals. Lots to look forward to sumore. I should not be too harsh on myself, coz things will eventually work out!

My weekdays are probably a bit too busy trying to figure out how to make things work at the work place actually and weekends just seem to just fly by. It's June! Mid of the year. My numbers are not there. And tick-tock! Time is ticking away....

I need to get back to my visualization exercise. At least get a better picture of how to get things work for me.

Being anti-social

Ok..it has never gotten to me that it can be REALLY annoying chatting using the phone through facebook or any IM apps, when you're out with other people. My apologies to everyone if I did it before. This is something I will change ..now!

Never really realized it till I saw my friend did it. And it's like this stone thrown at you telling you that YOU are this person who does it too! And the whole idea of social networking sites is to meet new people virtually, so the questions come to mind would be...will or can this cyberspace social networking be REAL? How would these people be if the computers/smartphones are taken away from them? Can they really socialize in the real world? Interesting to think about it...

It's so easy to just click on someone and say "hi" and chat continues... Things doesn't seem to be the same in real, now why is that? it boggles me...

Anyway..just needed to say that out. Back to work for me!

The New Year 2011

As the curtain draws to year 2010, I guess this is the best time to reflect on the things that has happened throughout the year...

The good: News of addition to the family, a "promotion" at work, a trip to Japan, attended the ASA course, enrolled myself for a 5KM run, started on exercising more regularly, cut down on the drinking, cut down on fast food, got to know a bunch of new friends, got a new phone

The bad: Got out from my relationship, got a whole lot more headache from my "promotion", only went for a trip this year, too many retail therapy sessions

What's in for 2011?

1) Continue with the exercise. My target weight loss is still at 20kg!

2) Change to a new car...Now thinking of Honda City.

3) Go to an overseas trip..thinking bout Australia for now, but exchange rate is kinda high...

4) Complete my 11km run ( in April )

5) Explore a lot more opportunities

So that's my resolution this coming year.

Hope it'll be a good one for you too!

Have a blast!

Turning a new leaf...

It has been the greatest 4 days of my life~
I finally attended the Achievers Self-Actualization course!

Trust me, I was as skeptical as anyone of you out there reading this. If you're wondering what course it is, before going to it, I'd describe it as any other motivational course. If you asked me now, I would STRONGLY suggest to you this course.

I would not elaborate on the content of the course, as this is basically or probably the one and only type of course that will help you the way you never thought before. It helped me, and this will be the beginning of a better life... my first and best investment of a lifetime! :)

When a good pillow works...

It's been a week or two that I'm having interrupted sleep. Think I need to get another Getha pillow again. This lack of sleep thing is getting to me...

Argh..so i'm counting down to Weds. Let it be a good week ahead~!

2V1G

I haven't been listening to the Chinese radio stations for a while now...so when I read from another blog about this group; I was thinking this might be worth a listen.

Thanks to the blog, I totally love their music! Singing some old renditions with their own style. This album is 3 thumbs up for me!

Check them out!
