Milestone

Today marks a two year anniversary working in current firm. It’s such a pronounce event that we went for celebrating. It may sound silly for celebrating such milestone, however, the photo will illuminate the significance of this milestone.

Pop quiz, “What’s one common thing in the photo?”

Answer, “None of us will be in the same shoe in three months time.”.

Places to visit Wishlist

Some places are meant to be visited as retreat, as vacation or as adventure. Below are some of my places to go wishlist-
1. Bordeaux wineries
2. Base Camp
3. Cruise- China Changjiang
4. Nepal – Poon Hill
I will visit them all one of these days, but until then, they remain in my wish list.

Medals

These are my running medals in recent years. I just completed 2017 Standard Chartered 10km Run and my results are better than last year and as good as 2014. My body hasn’t aged much (or that's at least what I am trying to deceive myself into).

Shoemaker

I am the shoemaker waiting for his elves. I have to dream more. Miracle will happen. Oh yes it will, for if it does not, I will be doomed. Elves, elves, where are you?

Junk Videos

There are so many junk videos to handphone via whatsapp or line that I need to spent more than half an hour every week just to delete them. I don't think I actually view more than 5% of those junk videos.
Top 3 Junk videos contributor to date:-
1. Papa
2. Teo Chew Association
3. Neighbourhood group.

Sponge Bob Run 2017

HY first ever run. 3km is no joke for a 5 1/2 years old. I think he did a very good job here.

Pikachu & Meowth on the same team. How often do you see that?

Management Retreat

Retreat, by definition, means a ‘withdrawal’ from whatever we are doing now. A Management Retreat, however, is the platform for senior leaders to come together for strategy development and action planning. Having said that, why do we name it management retreat when the so call retreat is more stressful than daily activities? Let’s rename it to Management Charge! Full Charge! CHONG AH !!!

The invasion of Pokemon

The invasion of Pokemon (17-Feb) Following the annihilation of Dooodolls kingdom, the Pokemon empire is slowly conquering our family. There are now 6 soft toys (2 big, 2 medium and 2 small) versus 14 Dooodolls soft toys.

Fish Tank

We got a new fish tank in the house. Currently there are 9 residents in the fish tank. Eight of them being small colourful fish and the 9th fish- nickname “Bandaraya” or the vacuum cleaner. Lets hope they enjoy your time here.

Firecrackers

One of the highlight of this Chinese New Year is playing Firecrackers. It’s the first time I’ve played in years and this round HongYi and HongXin are joining the fun. We have fun with the following types of firecrackers.

Type 1: The magical wand type. Now comes with original and with color. RM 3 per pack. Simple but kids always love it as you can hold it.

Type 2: The spinning on the floor type. RM 4 per pack. The good thing about this is that its cheap.

Type 3: The loud and go up to the sky and pop! Relatively cheap too but the noisy can be both exciting and irritating.

Type 4: The beautiful wonder on the floor. RM 5 each. Not cheap but really beautiful.

Type 5: Like a real firework. Its kinda noisy and fly to the sky for the big beautiful firework. RM 10 but only 1 shot.

Type 6: The hold in the hand and shoot to the air type. RM 6 each for 6 shot. Not noisy and the firework is smaller.
