Meeting Goh Wee Ping

Ah! It's already 21st of August! What happened to my back-blogging you ask? Erm....laziness kicks in as usual =P Yeah cos I was so packed up with editing those photos. Not just tens but hundreds of them! Couldn't stand editing them every single day and so I slowed down and then it came to never ending history. Hehe... Gonna do a quick post here. 

Tonight I was invited by a dear friend Jenny to attend a seminar held by Tokio Marine Life, an insurance company from Japan. The highlight isn't about insurance though. Ok so I was hesitating to go until yesterday I finally gave in the opportunity and boy I was whisked off by the charm of someone =D

Tokio Marine Life Kuching invited a famous local tv host who is also an actor himself. Namely Goh Wee Ping. Hails from Sri Aman and moved to Kuching during his childhood times. Wootz! I never knew he's a Sarawakian! We Sarawakian surely did produce good talents! Lately the a director was being discovered as well kan? I forgot his name and am lazy to Google but yeah, he directed the film The Conjouring. Should be proud as a Sarawakian!

When Jenny told me about him and showed me his photo, I was a lil blur thinking who is this handsome chap. But when I saw him tonight in person, the bell finally hits me! He's from the show Deal or No Deal which was on tv couple of years ago on NTV7. I remember how me and my mom used to catch up with the show everytime. Haha!

So, he talked about his life, his career success and shared his thoughts on insurance field. He's a very friendly and humorous guy. Needless to say, the ladies in the room were all thrilled to see him and with his sweet smile, I myself was mesmerized! Haha! 

Back to insurance talk. Again, you know me, I'm always and mind you, this never ends, people always approach me wanting to recruit me as an insurance agent. But ah! I remember back when I was only 19 years old, I did had an experience with insurance field. I was filled with courage and all but I was hit so hard that the moment I left this field I told myself that I'm never gonna go back. I know I know, you're gonna say never say never. Oh we'll see =)

But events that happened today, I really gotta rethink about my own career. What do I really wanna do? It's not about the money you know. Yes I may be broke and jobless now but I still hold on to the firm ground believing that happiness is way more important than money. It's not about doing what you like but liking what you do. Someone just gave me these words tonight. Hit me hard on my head. Gotta put on more pillows tonight to think about my whole life. 

Anyway, who would miss a photo with the handsome chap right? Heee~

I believe God made us cross path for a reason. For what reason? Time will tell...

Friends and Effort

Image
Friends. They come and go. Everyone cross path with you for a reason. Either to be your lifelong dependable friend or just to teach you a lesson. Some come and go as quick as the quicksand. Some stayed on for couple of months and take their departure once the mission completes. While some, is just a phone call away since day one.  So how do you know who belongs to which category?  The answer is, you don't. Living for 30 years, having friends for as long as 20 years, I realised that it is all about the effort. The phrase, 'It takes two to tango' is so accurate that it can even predict the rainy and sunny days. What kind of effort are we talking about here? We're talking about the effort to make friend(s) and keep up the effort to make that friendship last with even the smallest step. Have you ever thought about the effort you make? What did you do to keep that friendship? Or the effort your friend(s) made to meet up, to call, or merely just a simple text...

Chinese New Year is officially over. Gotta roll back to normal work days no matter how much you hated it. But well, it's another start! So heads up peeps! Stay strong for year 2011!!! The best has yet to come! Does anyone here knows who is the first president of China? Let me bring you back to history =D I'm a sucker in history subject in school but I think this vacation had taught me alot about China's history. I get to know who is the president, who is the patriot and who else is who. Some of you may say that this is boring but I think what's boring is just texts on books. Try going to a school where they bring you all over the historical place. I'll tell you it's fun! I'm lazy to introduce much. If you want more info, you can always ask Google. Haha! Here is Dr Sun Yat Sen's house in Guangzhou when he was young. Man this house stood there for over 200 years!!!! He was a Chinese doctor who then known as the Founding Father of Republican China...

Random Updates 12-07-2011

I feel like a lost lamb now. I just want to crap everything out and off. You know how life can be at crossroads at times? But man, mine isn't at crossroad now. It's as if I walked into a dark forest and can't find my way out. I've been feeling down and stressed and I don't know, maybe even depressed. I don't know who to talk to about this stuff. I can't talk about it to people around me cos they will all say about the same old stuff. What am I talking about? It's my career, my future. Previously I have goals and aims and future dreams. But it seems to have shattered into pieces cos certain reasons keep pulling me back. Back in secondary school, I dream of becoming an accountant. A chartered accountant just so I can do the easy job. Sign the documents and get paid for my signature. How easy is that and how stupid I was to even think that it's an easy course. So off I went to major in accounting and my life was peaceful. It was until college that eve...
