I remember clearly that on one fine day, while I was working on my website project, one of my flatmate entered my room and asked me, “How can you build a website?” Looking at her while my hands were typing some HTML code, and replied “Why not?” Let me share you my story. I’ve been playing with HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, ASP, for quite some time. I admit that I’m not the best coder among my peers. I enrolled into […]

Remember why you are here
Recently I listened to a design talk, one of the speaker begins her presentation with a slide titled, “Remember why you are here”. And following that title, there is a sentence, “I started this field because I’m passionate about [blanks]” This brought my memory back to a book I read in the past, a self help book on to find joy about your work. I’m sure working can be exciting to us yet horrifying to some of us. It’s either […]
Daily inspiration, find one every day
Question to self: What is inspiration? What inspires you every day? What are the thing that you find inspiring? Do you think inspiration takes an important place in your life? I found this poster somewhere in the internet two days ago and it made my day. I hope it inspire you too. Happy weekend.
Are you interested or..?
Interesting quote I read this week from Ken Blanchard is: “There’s a difference between interest and commitment. When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstance permit. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results.” After reading those, suddenly learning foreign language popped up in my head. I have been learning Japanese for about a year or more, and recently I also enrolled myself into a Korean class. So am I just interested or […]
Have a little adventure
If someone asked you, how have you been? What is your answer? Good? Not bad? Excellent? Normal? That question is very common to be asked when you meet your friends at early of the week or after you haven’t seen them for awhile, right? Most of people will start to complain when they feel life is picking on them. Some start to complain, some start to be ignorance. I stumbled into a good post, an inspiring life lesson from Bruce […]
1 year ago
After missing my due for my last 2 posts and as weekend is approaching, finally I have time to blog. Oh how I miss it. I feel like want to have a flash back for in this post. I browsed my past posts by selecting the year and month. And come to my surprise, a year ago (as the title said) on the exact date, I wrote about complacency. Based on 3 points I write on fighting complacency, I did […]
To connect
Thought of the day: You will never know that sometimes even a small gesture from us, can be a great thing for others. It works the other way around too. When we did something bad to others, we assume that it’s nothing because it’s small. But it can mean a huge blow for them. Here is my personal experience:
To whom I should blame this to
One of my friend recently told me that how miserable his life is. And he felt that why life is so unfair to him. (sounds familiar hey?) Yes, it’s all about complaining. I did that too quite often in the past, until a certain extent when I decided to learn to control it. It takes time, and over the time though I still did it, but it’s way lesser than what I used to do.
