Carebears of the world unite!!!

You Are Funshine Bear

You are extremely playful and fun loving. You love to goof around and tell jokes. You don't take anything seriously, and you feel like most people are too somber. You remind others that life should be celebrated. You bring the party with you. You are hilarious and a kick to be around. Good times always start with you.

What Care Bear Are You?

说了再见。。。

天涼了　雨下了　你走了
清楚了　我愛的　遺失了
落叶飘在湖面上睡著了

想要放　放不掉　泪在飘
你看看　你看看不到
我假裝過去不重要　卻發現自己辦不到

說了再见　才發現再也見不到
我不能就這樣失去你的微笑
口紅待在桌腳　而你我找不到
若角色對調你說好不好

說了再见　才發現再也見不到
能不能就這樣忍著痛淚不掉
說好陪我到老　永恒往哪裡找
再次擁抱一分一秒都好

你的笑　你的好
腦海裡　一直在繞
我的手　忘不了　你手的溫度
心碎了一地　撿不回
從前的心跳　身陷過去我無力逃跑

說再見　才發現再也見不到
能不能就這樣忍著痛淚不掉
說好陪我到老　永恒往哪裡找
再次擁抱一分一秒都好

live with your fears!

dream a lil dream!

You are a Dreamer

You tend to have your head in the clouds. You love to be drawn in to a whole other world. You are a sensitive person. You find it easy to be emotionally effected by books. You are a person with many different interests. You are fascinated by everything in the world. You are a person who loves to acquire possessions. You can't resist a sale, and you own a lot of things.

friends at work

nope, i aint giving up the thought of looking for a new job (or being headhunted as some BHB ex-coworkers may put it). but it's juz that, while we are at the current job, it doesnt hurt to be friends with our colleagues.

I LOVE MY COLLEAGUES!

Lose weight? Sleep more!

Excerpted from the Straits Times:

WASHINGTON - DIETERS looking to shed more fat and feel less hungry while they do it may benefit from a few more hours in bed, according to a new study.

Dieters lost the same amount of weight whether they slept for a full night or fewer hours, but those who got more sleep lost more fat and they also felt less hungry while awake, according to the study, which appears in the Oct 5 issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine.

'If your goal is to lose fat, skipping sleep is like poking sticks in your bicycle wheels,' said Plamen Penev, an assistant professor of medicine at the University of Chicago and the director of the study.

'Cutting back on sleep, a behavior that is ubiquitous in modern society, appears to compromise efforts to lose fat through dieting. In our study it reduced fat loss by 55 per cent,' Mr Penev added.

The study, undertaken by the University of Chicago's General Clinical Resource Center, tracked 10 overweight but healthy volunteers aged 35 to 49.

The participants had body mass indexes ranging from 25, which is considered overweight, to 32, which is considered obese.

See?! I'm right about sleeping more!!!!!

Note to The Husband: STOP waking me up prematurely!!!!

碰！

whenever there's an outing with ong laylay, or dear daniel, there's bound to be... MAHJONG! ha...

so glad to finally make it for the dinner outing at cyn's (not so) new place at far far punggol. i swear if i roll a tad too fast, i might land at the sea.

it was a mad rush from jwest (where i muz say, STUFFS happened, sigh) to ulu ulu punggol. thank God for ronald who was kind enough to pick me up from marina sq en route to punggol! (incidentally, he was the same kind soul who fetched me back in the heavy rain in the wee hours of the morning!) luvya, neighbor!

oh, back to the dinner, cyn cooked curry and fried bee hoon and we were kinda supposed to celebrate her bday, since ALL of us knew it was her bday the day after. i poked around and assumed that the cake in the fridge was for us to cut. NAH. i was wrong. i guessed dan and lili drove to compasspoint to get the cake...
oh and this happened to be taken while dan and lili went out to get the cake. thank you both! wilson is the 稀客here man!
alright, back to mahjong... i muz say, they bet BIG. playing with the big players, i feel stressed. and that prolly explained the major outbreak on my face the day after. (together with the new role at work + the spate of events in cg of cos) truly, i tink i am getting too old for the stay-up-overnight thingy...

so... no more mahjong for the next 2 years. haha... MISS THE BUNCH OF WINDSURFERS! we rock!

BMW

Tis week has been such a memorable week by far, I have to pen it down!

And yes, the amount of $ I'm spending on public transport alone is more than wat I'll spend in an entire other month, or quarter I dare say.

The Husband was set for reservist (I call it a twanging session) and I made it to work on my own for the past 3 days! And by public transport, I do NOT mean the Taxi.

And I'm proud of myself! Frugal Glad is making a comeback!! Yay!!

(btw, BMW = bus, mrt, walk)

need some privacy!

bear! growllll...

would love to visit someday!

slow me down...

"Slow me down, LORD,
Ease the pounding of my heart
by the quieting of my mind.
Steady my hurried pace with a vision
of the eternal reach of time.
Give me, amid the confusion of the day,
the calmness of the everlasting hills.
Break the tensions of my nerves and
muscles with the soothing music of the
singing streams that live in my memory.
Help me to know the magical, restoring power of sleep.
Teach me the art of taking minute vacations of slowing down
to look at a flower, to chat with a friend, to pat a dog,
to read a few lines from a good book.
Slow me down, Lord, and inspire me to
send my roots deep into the soil of life's
enduring values that I may grow
toward the stars of my greater destiny."

Good is the enemy of Great

if there's something i've caught over the weekend, it has to be CHANGE.
in Jim Collins' book entitled , he talks about why some companies (and i would say, individuals too) make the leap... and others don't.

in his opinion, the 7 characteristics of companies that went from Good to Great has to be:

• Level 5 Leadership: Leaders who are humble, but driven to do what's best for the company.
• First Who, Then What: Get the right people on the bus, then figure out where to go. Finding the right people and trying them out in different positions.
• Confront the Brutal Facts: The Stockdale paradox - Confront the brutal truth of the situation, yet at the same time, never give up hope.
• Hedgehog Concept: Three overlapping circles: What makes you money? What could you be best in the world at? and What lights your fire?
• Culture of Discipline: Rinsing the cottage cheese.
• Technology Accelerators: Using technology to accelerate growth, within the three circles of the hedgehog concept.
• The Flywheel: The additive effect of many small initiatives; they act on each other like compound interest.

are you moving from good to great? Needa Change.
