Step Forward

Some people just know how to get the publicity they need, even for the wrong reasons but heck it, they won cos they are being 'talked about'.

Some others have their ways of getting things done and winning in the end, are they that good really? I can sense the 'gloating grin'...

A lesson learnt -> they are 'daring to take the first step' ...when will i be daring enough to take my first step forward?

TW Drama Addict

Chanced upon another relatively new Taiwan drama - 第二回合我愛你, I must say that I am again addicted to this series as well ...besides the other one PS Man which I am already following. Somehow, for this particular drama ...the messages on marriage and parenthood are just so subtle yet so real. I am amazed by how the brilliant people over at HKG and TW can do their series so well as compared to what we do here ...untill people brushes them off as 'propaganda'. The male lead in this drama is so new chap in the acting arena. Cute guy. Lucky guy to lend such a role. Will I be that lucky too soon?

Whirlwind

This young man (DYT - blog below) created a whirlwind 2 years back... he made it big within 2 years of entering MediaCorp. I certainly do not have his good looks but somehow, I am quite confident that given a right opportunity, I think I can do just as well, if not better (haha) in creating the next sensation in the aunties (probably not the younger girls lah) in Singapore. I am still secretly wishing that I can be in the Top 20 Popular ....again, I know I am dreaming....

I am glad to clock in my 200th post! I hope it is a good beginning.

Earn more, Spend more?

Most of you would agree with me that people who earn more tend to spend more, or vice versa, they have spent more, thus, need to work longer hours/harder to earn more ..and the 'vicious' cycle. If I only earn that much, I will refrain from getting branded stuff for myself, visiting expensive restaurants, going to expensive/branded hair salons and so on. That is different for celebrities, they may earn more and they certainly spend more ... to look good ...they can't be possibly seen wearing baleno or giordano for that matter, instead they should be donning zara, AX and so on. There are certainly another breed of thrifts who earn big bucks but spend little, these are probably the loaders ...really rich! I used to admire people (esp celebrities) who drive big cars, until my wife alerted me - hey, they may be paying through their nose (eg $2K a month) to 'keep' their lexus/mercedes. SO, how do you want to live your life, and how I want to lead my life?

My Strengths?

Some pple are simply talented.
I heard this song once and I like it ...and I just found out that it was sung by the beloved Faye Wong...wow, after such a long absence, her voice is still so good. Some times, I tot to myself... can I be just as good in my own playing field?

Mar School Hols

I am really glad that the Mar school hols are here...not only I can take/clear some leave, it is more of having some 'peace' cos the day-to-day of my work has somewhat created some 'invisible stress' in me which I am afraid has affected my health to some extent. While I am trying to stay positive, I am also feeling pessimistic that I am still here, and possibly stuck for a while more. It is not easy to be doing what I do... everything and anything can fall on my shoulder if something (touch wood) really happens... I can be on my walk to have my lunch at the canteen, when I do stop to pick up litters (empty bottled drinks, papers, used tissues) and call someone to help clean up puddles of split water or soup... You may wonder why I had to do that ...cos, should someone run and step and slip and fell....thatz it ....reports and reports....or someone make comments/feedback why not clean etc....I know I can be thinking too much but one has to be in it, to understand why I feel that way. Hmm......

Blue

There are certain people, I mean actors that I 'like' to watch their acting.
Blue Lan is one of them, which I know some dun fancy him. He has a 'beng' look though but in my views, he is a good actor and carries his lead roles well though they may seem similar. So lucky to be able to play lead roles always. From "Easy Fortune, Happy Life" to his latest "P.S. Man". This new show also casts the up and coming Sonia Sui, and James Wen. The first episode is so funny. Check it out....showing now in Taiwan, every Sun.

Not so easy

This song captivated me. Not a new singer. Infact, a seasoned one.
黃小琥 singing 沒那麼簡單
