I recently came across Penelope Trunk's website when hf shared her happiness project, and the theory of having friends vs. Vulnerability.

She has now become my read during my incomprehensible statistics class.

I especially liked this one today:

"Your assistant is not someone whose top priority is to do the job you don't want to do.

He or she should be someone you want access to because their presence improves your day; someone you have always wanted to make your workday great."

I wish I had been that someone to somebody. Though so far, it seems that an assistant is primarily an extra pair of hands for somebody.

“I felt the breeze on my face at 5:11 PM”

Thursday, October 06, 2011


Just 3 months ago, I was talking about getting my diving course done.

In an unexpected turn of events, I did.

And what an unforgettable experience it was!


I wish I had more time to reflect on the whirlwind events that happened since July....


Leadership Residential Program

Experential Learning Program (Camp)

Diving @ Malapascua

Mad rush of lectures and homework and lectures and homework

Activity-filled weekends

Moon Party/BBQ @ John's private roof top

Macau holiday @ Presidential suite in Venetian


And I'm about to embark on a new adventure soon.

Can't wait!

“I felt the breeze on my face at 11:05 PM”

Monday, July 18, 2011

Technology can progress so fast these days that I don't have time to catch up with it.

The school gave each and everyone of us an iPad 2 as an online academic tool. It's also a green gesture so we'd reduce printing. Though ironically, we had to fill in ~10 pages of forms on our registration day - all of which require our signature and quite a few repeat of writing our personal details over and over.

We had 3 paper forms just for the ipad.

J is skeptical of the use of ipad for school purposes. He likens it to a huge flash drive for us to download our homework from real computers.
Well, I suppose learning should be fun. Let's see if it goes way off tangent.

Now I've joined the I-family and there may be no turning back.

“I felt the breeze on my face at 8:48 AM”

Friday, July 08, 2011
This week has been good

Cleared the air with a colleague, realigned roles and responsibilities. Hopefully this will work.

Been meeting my classmates quite a fair bit - 1st July yumcha, wanchai lunch gatherings, happy hour. More of them end of this month - can't wait for this new adventure.

Life is not just about work anymore - it's work, school, party and love.

I got a book for Zhijin - now is the time - 170 ways to seize the moment.

Now, I really need to get started on those diving lessons....

'There's pasta in the fridge for you to take to work'

And it immediately made my day a whole lot better.

The days of working past 10pm each day has returned (never really stopped). And I would usually come home with jason watching TV and just relaxing.

I feel guilty all the time, that he does the cooking and housekeeping. I would really like to help, but I'm just too exhausted by the end of the day.
Endure, PC. There's an angel by your side, treasure that and make each day matter.

“I felt the breeze on my face at 9:00 AM”

Saturday, May 14, 2011
After a good hot shower, I turned on the TV and saw HOT brad Pitt kissing 'susan' for the first time. Instantly I wanted to be 'suzan' and I felt my lips being kissed ever so gently by Joe Black.

My eyes were fixed to the TV the entire night (to hell with work). I've got a meeting with Death.

It was 1998 when I watched this film. I was 15 and immediately in love with this movie.

I wanted to feel everything the movie said about love -

'Love is passion,obsession,someone you can't live without. I say fall head over heels,find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. How do you find him? Well,you forget your head and you listen to your heart and I'm not hearing any heart. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well,you haven't lived a life at all. But You have to try, because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived... Stay open, who knows? Lightning could strike."

And I wanted lightning to strike immediately. I wanted someone whom I can fall head over heels in love with.

And with this 'mantra', every of my relationships I gave all of my heart.

What happens after the relationship ends is a different story altogether. They were all good while they lasted.
Like how the movie says -

"It nice it happen to you. Like you come to the island and had a holiday. Sun didn't burn you red-red, just brown. You sleep and no mosquito eat you. But the truth is,it bound to happen if you stay long enough. So take that nice picture you got in your head home with you, but don't be fooled. We lonely here mostly too.If we lucky,maybe, we got some nice pictures to take with us." And I'm lucky to have some very good pictures (the bad ones I erase from my memory).

Another lesson about love I learnt -

Joe Black: I don't care Bill. I love her.

William Parrish: How perfect for you - to take whatever you want because it pleases you. That's not love.

Joe Black: Then what is it?

William Parrish: Some aimless infatuation which, for the moment,you feel like indulging - it's missing everything that matters.

Joe Black: Which is what?

William Parrish: Trust, responsibility, taking the weight for your choices and feelings, and spending the rest of your life living up to them. And above all, not hurting the object of your love.

Joe Black: So that's what love is according to William Parrish?

William Parrish: Multiply it by infinity, and take it to the depth of forever,and you will still have barely a glimpse of what I'm talking about.

Joe Black: Those were my words.

William Parrish: They're mine now.

Its great to watch this all over again and to know what I held so tightly in my heart, I still feel them.
