'Between my brain and my guts, I can get things done'
and I totally agree with him on that.
Awesome. I think it speak volumes about one ability if anyone dare to say out the statement.
Yesterday I spent my Saturday weekend helping out with the FOC preparation, starting at Ikea before staying in school till 9pm. By evening, it was only Wen Ting and me, 2 sad eligible bachelor trying to finish up the snake n ladder painting for the wet games program.It wasn't exactly that fun but it was not that boring either.
I would say it's rather therapeutic because it remind me of my childhood. I learnt painting when I was in primary school and did pretty well in competition before abandoning completely in secondary school. Though yesterday painting was only simple skill of mixing the color and brushing it over the mahjong paper, I felt strangely at peace for a moment, between the paper, the brush and my hand.
All in all, I felt for Wen Ting who is tasked with such herculean assignment with no one to help and whether as a fren or a fellow main comm member, I felt greatly obliged to help him.
Later in the night, I signed up for the Nike 10Km Run which is happening on the 31st August 2008. As far as I know of, runners around the world will be running on the same day, at the same time for their adopted charity. With such great cause and apparently a fantastic goodie pack lying ahead if you complete the race, I urged you people to join in the fun as well.
What the hell are you waiting for? Sign up now!
Today I was reading the Sunday Times Lifestyle when I came across an article by editor of the Life!, Sunday LifeStyle and Urban sections - Sumiko Tan
Inside this article she talked about 360 degree feedback. If you don't know what is it, its something to do with Human Resource. Try taking the module Organization Behavior or Intro to Human Resource Management for more details. Anyway, she touched on chemistry and I think it's really relevant in real life.
'You either have chemistry with a person or you don't, and you will know it the instant you meet.
Chemistry is hard to manufacture even if you try. It can be a passing thing and need not lead to a friendship. If it does, it can also die when the relationship ends. Chemistry is no guarantee that ties between 2 people will last forever.
It is also a different animal from love, or lust, at first sight. You can fall head over heels for someone yet realise later there's no chemistry between you.'
Chemistry..so simple and yet it can decide whether it can last a lifetime.
Today is my sister 21st birthday. Happy birthday sister and hope she can enjoy good health, good food, good fun and good bf soon. Our whole family went for korean bbq at Bugis. While at Bugis Junction, we came across an old man who was plying his trade as a street performer. He was playing the harmonica, while juggling the ball and wearing wooden clog to make the beat. 'Clog Clog Clog..'
I saw his face, and wondered to myself: ' Life have been hard on him' He is already so old, hitting 70+ and he is still trying to make out a living performing on the street when he should be already enjoying life with his children and grand-children. It set the tone for the rest of the evening as I wondered how many meals can he eat with a budget of ours for just a dinner. It was the same with Haggen Daz and I think I will not be visiting Haggen Daz soon because the stuffs there are just too freaking expensive. Even though I'm not the one paying, the cost of the meal just don't add up.
Sorry for the intrusion though. Sister, I have not forget about you.
Once again, wishing you many similar happy return for your birthday ahead.
