Two days ago I saw a post on my twitter list about interviewing ourselves. I read her post and I found out that she and I are following the same blogger (Dragos Roua). If you like inspiring stories or motivational stories, I highly recommend you to follow his blog too. I like the idea to interview myself because not only you (the readers) can know about me better, but also (importantly) for my own sake. The main point of saying […]

Is blogging useless?
One day one of my friend asked me during lunch time, what would I think about blogging. Well I have a blog and I like to blog. The reason is I can share my thought and with hope to inspire others. How did I start to blog? It started when I was on my final year in high school. I was inspired, many times, by reading stories from Chicken Soup books. Most of the story are short and simple, based […]
Too much of good thing is not good
Why too much of good thing is not good for us? I’m curious about the statement after watching a movie last weekend. One of the character inside the movie said that. The movie I watched was “The Karate Kid” or “The Kung Fu Kid” (the title in China). I’ll keep my post short this time, to take it as reflection. Sometimes we work too hard when we wanted something badly. Let’s say we want to score well in our exam. […]
Capturing the best picture
As a refresher in between some personal development post I usually I write, I would like to share a story. Some weeks ago, I went to a short hike with group of friends. There were 6 of us, three girls and three boys. Almost all of us bring camera, from pocket camera to digital SLR camera (I counted out mobile phone camera in this case, although that some mobile phone can produce not so bad picture)
(Less than) 3 minutes intro
Recently, the company I work for asks each of us to write a short introduction about ourselves. So that each of us can try to understand better about others. Below is mine. If I am not a web developer, I would love to be a movie reviewer. My weekends are spent by going to gym in the morning, cleaning up my room and house (on roster), watching movies with my friends in the evening or having brunch on Sunday as […]
Juicy friendship
Juice of the day: Friendship. How many friends do you have? We made friends since we were young, at school, at tuition center (maybe), or at work. At each stage of our life, we had close friends whom help us through the storm of our life. Can you remember them? One by one? And named them?
Lessons learnt from the road
One of the reasons I didn’t blog much last month is I was on a week overseas trip. There are some lessons learned within this period. I’d like to make note of it (into different post), as well as sharing it. This is the first time, I write a series of posts. So, I’m looking forward to hear what you think about it too. *UPDATE: Living virtually Having fun is harmless, really Older or wiser, you choose.. Tolerance tested
Just do it?
Recently I watched Green Zone starred Matt Damon, Greg Kinnear, and many more. An interesting dialog came out in the movie. Doing something for reason, not just the job. Sometimes it just happens to us. We have to do something either for work or maybe for ourselves, for our friends or our loved ones. Doing it is not the hardest part, but when it comes with specific request that we don’t really agree or against our conscience, will you still do it?
