Finally, a chnace for me to blog. Was surprised to see 101 hits on my blog. Thanks for all my friends who had commented and read this blog. Really apprieciated it. I am now at an internet cafe in my neighbourhood CC. This shows how desperate I am for the internet. Friends who knows me well knows that I am one who can't survive without the net. I mean I have net access from my home since 97. The longest period I been through without the net is when I was training with the SAF. But trust me. When u are training with the SAF, no way will you be thinking of the net. U will only be thinking of sleep. I think S'pore men are trained to sleep less and do nothing more by the SAF. Guys who had went through army should agree with me. I mean why let me laze around from 8-5 but only give me "arrows" when I am about to book out for nights off?? Well, why am I talking about this now? I am an Operationally Ready NSMan now. Haha. ;P Good luck to friends of mine who are still in NS and worse, going for Ex Wallaby.
Well, I been to Australia once last year for Ex Wallaby and trust me when I said it was really tough. It can be abt 33 degrees in the day but drop to 16 degrees in the night. Beside that, we slept inside tents in the open when we are not training and worse, in the open when the Excercise commenced. The only thing I like about there is the food at the outdoor canteen. I mean with a can of beer at A$1.40, life can't be worse when this happens. ;)
Anyway, I met a prospect today at work. Had a good conversation with her. I mean I been slacking for quite a while so it felt strange having a conversation with a stranger about insurance. But after the formal stuff, we chatted abt our life and interest. She is an interesting young gal. I mean if I can't get her to get any saving plans, she still makes a good friend. I mean people tends to think that all agents are out here for a quick buck and run off but I am not. I like to help others and know more friends. But the sad fact is a lot of people don't trust people or tends to judge a book by its cover. I sometimes feel down when this happens. It is the content that counts. I mean you may be great looking but if end of the day u are down right despicable, u aren't worth a second look. That's why I Love SHREK. He is the anti hero or perfect person that I like. He have his flaws and that makes him more of a character rather than less. No one is perfect and no one shall try to do it too. It is too tiring to act a front for others. Be yourself. If you can't even face yourself in the mirror and say that you are not putting up a front for others, what's the purpose in life?
Finally had the chance to watch the Terminal today. Watched it in between my appointments with my colleague and it was great. Tom Hanks was at his best and Catherine Zeta Jones looks stunning in it. Some people might not like the ending. I am not going to give away anything as there might be people who had not catch this but you should really go and watch it. The ending to me is special as it shows that everyone had their own destiny in life. Watch it and you shall understand. A promise is worth its gold only if you set out to honour it. Nowadays, people tends to promise others the sky or the impossible. It seems to had come to a point that promises are just nothing. I am not going to whine abt it but let just put it this way. No one will trust anyone who keep on crying wolf. A promise is an honourable agreement between two or more parties. It is hurtful to be promise something but to be betray in the end. So think carefully before giving out a promise to anyone or even worse to someone you love. I always try to keep my promises but there are times that I fail to keep them. I am going to make it a point to keep to my promises from now on and I really hope that you guys will do so. Chaoz.
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
