Is It Too Much To Ask For More?

I find myself so hard to make choices especially when I have to decide either one of two or more options that I have. The thing is if I choose one, I’ll loose the good of the other. And if I choose that, I’ll loose the good of this. What’s worst is I can’t have both ways. Sometimes I rather not have any options. Ah, crap.

Just A Smart Tadpole

At times I think it’s just a cliché when my boss said “When people asked me ‘What makes your company successful? Why is it different? It it because of your business plans and strategies?’, I said ‘No. It’s the people that makes the difference.’” Nice…

I think it’s normal for any rising and growing young hot blooded people to pursue knowledge. Learning more, knowing more and discovering more partly because it’s natural for any of us to stay ahead in some ways or another. People may not realise it as it doesn’t need to be any big important things. Be it the achievement of eating the latest pizza restaurant in town or the achievement of being an important figure that earns the respect of others. Without realising, unconsciously people try to be on top of whatever-mountain there is to be. As time goes by, we think we’ve accumulated a somewhat commendable knowledge and experience which we think Mr. Knows-It-All deserve a pat on the back. Nothing wrong. People do deserve some kind of recognition and accolade for sharing valuable knowledge to which is for the betterment of mankind. But what’s wrong is when people think it all ends at there. Not exactly- at least for me. I realise how small I am. How much more there is to learn just as how the ocean cover the face of the earth. It’s impossible to contain everything. A head that’s so big all filled up with knowledge and it grows bigger and bigger, leaving the heart not expanding and finally ended up like a useless tadpole. I find myself knowing lesser when I’ve learned more.

A Day To Celebrate

DSC_3150[1]

Yesterday was my cousin’s wedding. The photo taken was after the wedding dinner at the ballroom reception. Not everybody in the family was in the photo as quite a number of them were busy taking care of babies. A day to celebrate? Yes indeed.

But more than just to celebrate a day of people getting married, it was also a day to celebrate knowing that my uncle and his wife and daughter were not in Japan. The earthquake and tsunami in Japan was disastrous. They were here for my cousin’s wedding dinner. Unfortunately for my Japanese aunt's relatives over there,  there was a lost of contact. Nobody is quite sure of what’s going on at the moment. Certainly that is not something to celebrate.

Just stop and ponder for a moment. I think there is so much thing for me to write that I think I should probably do it some other time. All I can say at the moment is, expect more catastrophe to come in these last days…

Not Forgotten

After coming to 3 months working in my current company, I received a phone call today. A call from a better company asking me if I’m interested for a position which was my first choice. She would leave me with a second thought if the position is permanent. I had to turn it down instead but told her that I would definitely contact her should I decide on anything. I wanted to leave my current place but I was sort of reluctant if not for my colleagues. But I’m sure I won’t be staying here forever.

Just when I thought that I’ve lost all hope, He suddenly left a hint of glimmering hope enough for me to know that He’s there. Thus, the meaning of my name too.

Out Of My Sand Box

I’m gonna seize the moment of whatever pops out next time!

Sink or swim. Now or never.
