Dream

Woke up feeling like i slept for 3 hours only.

I had the weirdest dream last night. I dreamt I was with Pst kong for the whole day. It is really weird.

I rem the dream starts off with Pst kong being a friend to me. Just like those random movie that starts off with 2 friends going out. I was with him and of course with much respect, we talk about his shops, business and ministry. It felt like i am under his discipleship and picking up things. We went around in his car and he kinda show me many things before we sat down and had heart to heart talk about personal stuff.

The more i think about it, the more weird i felt! Of cos i would love to have him as a personal discipler and friend. The dream is just so weird.




Swam 44 laps straight for about 50mins. I need some excitment in life!

Diarrhea

Supposed to be at OPM now but having diarrhea and constant stomach ache has prevented me to go. Guess i will go for make up on fri!

This blog has been accumulating dust! I am pretty sure that hardly anyone will read it. Seems like whenever someone started work, he or she will blog so much less!! I have been pretty lazy for the last few months! haha.. Other than spending time with myrna, i have been trying to catch up with friends as much as I can.

Maybe it is time to have some mini updates!

1) I got a new black n97!!


SEXY! I am such a hp freak. The good thing is that i din spend a single cent on this. I merely sold my e71 and use the amount to pay for the difference. Made about 90 dollar profit. I got admit, it is bulky and the OS is abit aged. Other than that, the camera is awesome! Web surfing experience is 1st class.




Pictures taken at F1 village vintage car exhibition!


2) F1

Another awesome thing i did was to go to F1! It was such an awesome experience! The atmosphere was electrifying! With the smell of burning rubber, loud(I mean real loud!)roaring engine and the enthu crowd, I simply love it! Will go again next year! Btw Alonso got a podium finish! Really happy about it!

check out the video taken using my n97 after my camera went flat.



3) USS Nimitz!

Oh yes, i went up n aircraft carrier!! The biggest in its class! All thanks to my colleague who knew the officer there well so we have the chance. He went there like 6 to 7 times(different one everytime) but told us this is one of the biggest and most comprehensive tour he went!

Check out the pictures!







4)Swimming



The inability to run has resulted in me starting to swim. I try to cover at least 40 laps each time i go. But still i am gaining weight, apparently it is not enough of a workout for me! In the process, I have developed a tan which i hope to keep! hopefully my knee will recover soon ! can't wait to start running again!


Pray for a speedy recovery!

To the pure, all things are pure

I finally have some personal time to myself..this few days have been crazy! sleeping late and waking up so early and having all my days packed! I am glad it is all over..just feel like slacking and having some personal time.

Went to watched GI JOE today. It was below my expectation. Somehow my taste for movies has changed. I no longer enjoy those no brainer action movies as much. They are good, CGI wise. I feel the plot is really soso, in fact, it does not really make senses. Maybe because it is based on some kids toy, so it does not really have an indepth plot. Any tom dick or harry can make an action packed movie if they pump in alot of money, but to make one with great storyline is a tough soup to brew.

Was reminded of the saying tgar Pst mentioned for a period of time, "To the pure , all things are pure...". One impt thing that i realised that is that one's perception and thinking is what ultimately guides a person. Basically there are 3 group of ppl in this world

1) Those who perceive they are wrong all the time.
- they are the one who are crazy. They lost their senses and orientation. They no longer believe in anything about themselves. That's why depression can lead to mental breakdown. Depression causes one to lose all hope of life and they start to think they are wrong(hence losers) all the time.

2) Those who percieve they are right some of the time.
- They are the "normal" ppl. They don make judgement on the spot. They consider viewpts.

3) Those who perceive they are right all the time.
- Those who always think they are right all the time.They are CONFIDENT that their knowledge and experience will prove them right. They think ppl are always in the wrong or they are deceived or naive. They will argue all the time to prove their pt. They have strong determination, but they can be soooooo strong in their view pt, that they are ssoooooo teribly wrong.



In fact, everyone has a combination of the 3 kinds( obviously if you constantly think in viewpt no 1, you need help!). I feel i am the 3rd kind most the time, be it whether i know it or not. It is a result of overly-confident(pride), the refusal to accept things as they are presented to me and lack of trust in ppl. To counter this problem, I will ponder alot. To grill and grill what viewpoints, ideas or stance i am taking, to be very sure that i am not being biased. Occasions( trust me, there are MANY) will come that i meet similar kind of people, they will show aggressiveness, talk in loud voice, display alot of emotions and they usually end up not wanting to carry on talking.


End of the day, you must know what kind of viewpoints do you hold most of the time. This will help you to become a better communicator and at the same time, allows you to learn from flaws that might have escape your radar.

God

Finally I am blogging. Work have been pretty busy and this few weeks there have been events going on that kept me rather busy, from 21st birthdays to weddings to FOP and of cos CHC 20th anniversary!

Looking at the calender, I realised almost 2 months have passed since i started work and i thank God for everything at work. People are pretty nice, working environment is pretty challenging and there are lots(understatement) to learn. For ppl who are looking at stocks to invest, do check out COSCO.Will be handling my 3rd ship tml till fri and this is pretty challenging, hope i can do well.

Was pondering about things and it is amazing how God put thoughts into my mind, thoughts that i never think of. These includes areas that i need to improve on, thoughts and revelation of life journey, lessons from past experience and of cos the things that you realised that He has placed in your path, things you realised only when you go past and look back.


Keep smiling, life is all about training and what separates the weak and the victorious is the word Attitude.

If you feel you are going through hell, take joy that God is giving you a crash course on life. And the best thing?

He knows you will complete it.

Work

Finally i am back home early from work! don't get me wrong, I have been busy for the last few night and i usually sleep after 12! and i have to wake up at 6 plus to work! I am glad i finally can have an early night!

Work has been pretty good today! quoted my second ship! it is a "one-dollar" project to my company but still i feel i achieved something! Neo have been pretty encouraging and not forgetting my "GodFather" at work, Raymond! haha..he never fails to teach me about work and also the way we should lead our lives. I have been reading and trying to quote old job which the senior have quoted before.

Other than the routine work, there are also pretty much events going on in my company sports club. Almost wanted to join the pool competition but too bad we sign up late. Oh ya tml we are going to have a photoshoot!!! Must try to dress smart!

The highlight of the day is and always will be to read the circular in my department. Before you think it is some crap, it contain everything about the company in a nutshell. The circular contin all the emails between my company and other companies, major news in the shipping line and all the relevent stuff such as new regulation etc. not forgetting that the magazines and insider info about shipping industry! Even though i have been in the company for about 1.5 months only, my knowledge about the shipping industry has growth by 400% or so! The way ppl do business is so darn cunning! Really learn so much !

I hope I can learn as much as I can. I need to constantly keep in mind about the big picture!

Funny conversation at work

Raymond: hey Titus you go to church? < shouting from other end of office)

Me: Yes.

Raymond: Kim hock you also go church?

Me: no la, he go to mosque.

Raymond: you all never sign up for the 7th month ghost festival dinner but you are always welcome to join us.

Me: ok.

Raymond: Remember Buddha loves you no matter who you are...

LOL!!!!!

living the lives of others

Just watched "No limits". Frankly speaking, it is only slightly above average. The show, however, did stirr up many thoughts in me.

1) I feel like running.
"Pre" just instill the running fever in me. I mean i run but not for a cause. Watching the show input a vision for running, a thought process for running, a way of running and how to run your own race. Though he lost, but if he had kept to his own pace, he would have won!

2) Living the runner life
This show makes me wonder how it is like to be doing what i m not doing now. Been born and bred in singapore, i can't help but feel that what we can do is pretty limited. I wonder how would it be like if i pursue a running career? To become a full time basketball player? to start my own store? to make my own shoe? I
thank God for what i have now but i can't help but ponder, is the surrounding restricting my dream? or is my dream being restricted by the surrounding? :P


I think i should step out and do what i always wanna do. I like to work in the banking sector, cos i like the nature of the job. I want to start my own business bcause it suits what iam looking for. I really hope to get something going on by the end of this year. But i am not in any hurry to do it, just want to be sure that i am doing what i really want and not dive into any pit i can find.

Tell me what you hope to have in life!
