Che Det

I'm not such a fan of politics but every now and then, there's one blog that I will go in and be mesmerized. And that blog is Che Det's. http://www.chedet.com/

Don't Eat in Toilet!

We've heard that line so many times when we were kids. But go up to Queensbay 3rd floor ... you PAY to eat in toilet!


I'd never set foot in that restaurant ever!

Krabi '08

I just wrote a travelogue on my latest adventure in Krabi just a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, I wrote it in Facebook and is not accessible to everyone. If you're interested to know about it, let me know!

Weird

I was walking with Marsha at Gurney Plaza few months ago and then SUDDENLY, she became giggly and asked me to take a photo of her with this mannequin. I'm not sure if the mannequin or Marsha was weird.

You think you know why she wanted this taken? Beats me.

'Middle' Life Crisis

Being the middle person is no fun. But in life, that is ONE role that you can't escape. Like a house on fire, there'll be one guy who connects the hose to the hydrant. Another guy at the end of the hose. And the middle guy comes in if the hose broke into 2.

The guy at the hydrant called the shot. The middle guy will be all drenched and tired. The hero (or zero) is the guy who held the hose. The middle guy COULD turn around the situation and be the hero by pointing the broken hose to the burning house. But he'd be working with a shorter hose which could bring failure as well.

So there you go. Life.

You can see this everywhere. On the football pitch, in you family, in your organization, business, everywhere! So, the question is: which one is you?

My take is - anywhere but the 'middle' :-)

U think u know me?

After more than 10 years of marriage, I’m still in the process of getting to know Sara. And I don’t think it’s due to me being a slow learner. But I think God created a human with millions of faces. And it changes every second. And frankly, I love the experience of getting to know her.

I’ve never met a person who stopped changing; physically nor mentally. Sometimes you’d see a man of steel goes down to tears at the lost of his mother. And values change too. At one point where we thought tattoo was cool, at a later point in life, we think it’s stupid. Our values will change as we get more mature and wiser. And nobody is mature or wise enough.

By the way, I really think that one of the best ways to really know a person is by going through a crisis. Be it death (of pet or loved ones) or an economic breakdown or even UP-turn – these are just some examples where you can really ‘know’ a person and the maturity and values that he/she carries.

So, if you think you know someone. Think again. Coz most of the time, you’ll only see the ‘cover’.

It's not my fault......

Opss. I just realized that I didn't blog in July. I made a resolution for '08 that I'd blog at least once a month and I failed :-(

Blame it on Facebook.
