It has been more than a week's time since I reached Singapore. Was busy with making arrangement for job interviews and attending as per accordingly. Times are quite hard for Singapore at this moment, but I believe Singapore and the rest of the world wll pick up from the 2008/2009 economy crisis. I honestly don't know how badly affected the economy crisis is for the rest of the world, but I believe we will all be able to walk out of it. From what I see, although the economy crisis is affecting all parts of the world, people from all walks of life is still doing their purchase(s) for their daily necessities. It does prove a point, no matter what happened, life goes on.
I will be attending another few interviews before I can count my chances of getting the job. Honestly, I am not very confident that I will be employed, but I believe if I think I can, then I can. I always have this self-belief in me, because I know that if I myself do not have confidence in myself, who else will have confidence in me then.
I am watching the match between FULHAM VS MAN UTD. Currently into 52th minute, Fulham is leading 1-0 over Man Utd. I am a Man Utd fan for over a decade, I have confidence that Man Utd will at least get a draw out of this match. They need the points now in oder to ensure a smooth journey for their rush to be the 2008/09 FA Premier League Champions. Man Utd, come on...show me what you have got which persuaded me to be a Man Utd fan in the first place.
Got to go now.....need to focus on the match, and after that, get some beauty sleep as I need to wake up early tomorrow to have some exercise with my friends.
See Ya!

A penny for my thoughts
It has been quite some time since I last blogged. I have been thinking for quite some time now, about whether the problem just lies with me, or is it just plain human thinking?
I am finally back in Singapore for good, thank god. Throughout my life, I have come across some Singaporeans who think highly of themselves too. Gosh, the way they describe themselves, is quite senseless. They claimed their capabilities are far beyond others, but in reality their working attitude and so-called capabilities proved other-wise.
From here, it made me think....why would anyone want to show off when they are in fact, have nothing to boast of? Does it really matter anyway? I am sure everyone born into this world, is capable of something and will also have a certain use for the world as well. As I don't believe GOD will waste His time and effort to create something worthless for this world.
My fellow Singaporeans, I may sound crude with my words. But I honestly mean no harm to undermine anyone's abilities or even wish to speak ill of anyone. I am just stating from my personal point of view. I only mean a minority group here, not all Singaporean. Please forgive me, if I offended anyone in anyway.
I just hope everyone in this world will understand that everyone in this world is capable of something....as GOD created each and every one of us uniquely. You have your own standards and traits, while I have my own as well. I always believe in respecting others and their capabilites, makes people respect oneself in particular. It will always remain as a dream and goal to me, hopefully one day it will be an attainable task.
Thank GOD , and please bless all human too. Before you think I am a Christian...sorry about it, I am actually a Buddhist and I have a lot of respect for everyone and eveything. It's just that, I wish everyone can just follow their own role properly.

Be Humble, my friend, Be very HUMBLE!
1st March 2009 - Today another Malaysian relative of mine told me that I would very much fail in my life, as I do not heed any advice from anyone in the family. This again involves in my business. Again, this made me think if some Malaysians do very much think highly of themselves.
Dear Malaysians,with all due respect to all of you, I am not out to rage a war of words with anyone who viewed my blog posts all this while. Honestly speaking, I respect a person because of his/her behavior, attitude and most important, I believe in respecting a person because of self-respect. Self-respect is something I am still trying to learn and attain. Now we are talking about basic human respect here, we all live in a world where civilization have come into our lives, for most of us living in this world till this day, no matter which part of the world you live in.
This relative of mine, is someone who does have an accumulated fortune after years of slogging, and being a scrooge. He is a successful as a businessman, but he failed terribly as a PERSON. He is someone whom I think I couldn't have much repect for. His only words of wisdom 'a human should use his brains more often to think more diversely.' He basically doesn't have any respect for anyone, as he reckons if one who is wealthy and powerful, the world will be his/hers.
He once told me that I am childish as a young man, and I can't handle a business on my own. But in my view, I do honestly think he is the one who have a childish mind, who just live in his own small world of 'Alice in the wonderland'. His world is so small, I do sometimes think if he is wasting his life. His world involves in working hard, coming back home to watch comic, sleep. It's quite simple, but the way he live his life, is quite pathetic in a way. He arrogantly belives most of the people living in this world, has the brain of a pig. He behaves like a child most of the times, playing with teenages, being bullish with his words and 'Kung fu actions'. Honestly, he belives that the fact that he is able to fight, as something he is proud of. Come on, we are not babarians. Fighting is not an alternative or solution to most problems. Honestly, the fact I do sometimes think that I am able to fight, makes me think that I am childish. I am still trying to make a change in my life, and I sincerely hope that I can.
He loves telling people how stupid the people are, in front of others. But I would dare to say, I will still be able to lift my head up high. As least, I finished my secondary 4 'N' level academic studies. I am able to speak proper english, without much stutter. I am trying to improve my life, learning new things. I don't live in my own small world of 'wonderland'. Most of all, I respect people as a human. A human deserves to be respected, regardless of what is the age of the person. Even all the the living creatures in this world, needs to be respected. Don't you think so?
I hope one day, this relative will get a chance to read this blog post and think it over carefully-does he need to respect people? Having a fortune, does not necessarily mean that you are superior over others. You should respect your subordinates or even your employees. Not to dismissed them as pig-headed or some trash. Even a trash can be useful......think plastic recycling. You never know when you are going to meet your downfall, everyone has his/her fair share of ups & downs. Be humble, my friend, be very HUMBLE!
