Upon Requested

To happy, thank you for visiting my blog so often. A current update is that a GLASS WATER BOTTLE dropped on my big toe and made my toe+ the vein route swell! but i’m insisting of playing bball… and I was just at Jas tea room with the rest of them. pictures maybe soon… COME BACK!

It’s June

I just realised it’s half the year of 2009 already… 2009 had been a year of changes and new adventures for me. I’m still learning how to cope, how to adjust, how to surf thru it beautifully on the waves rather than letting the waves crush me…
TEACH ME O’ LORD!!!

I just realised that I don’t have my own videos on my own blog. so here’s to God!

Falling Down

Last night I was playing bball with my bball buddies, and apparently i tripped over probbaly my own footing, ramp into Huilin and fall flat down on knee n then follows by my shoulder before my cheek have a good kiss with the floor. (i was running that fast). Funny thing is, all the years i play ball, I always fall butt down, almost never face forward like this.

I was thinking about my fall when i was telling Yien, (I forgot if i told you la yien or i had it in my mind), I kinda forgotten how it felt like having to fall like this but it felt nice. When we are young, we have no problems falling down and getting back up. But along the way, as we get older, we realised that we hate falling down even more. Maybe because our friends will laugh at us. (well it’s funny la sometimes..) A week or two back, I fell on my butt after a stool at a restaurant decided not to carry me and break. (My friend-no names mention asked for permission to laugh out loud, i permitted) oh well..

Specially when we are an adult now, falling down is like the BIGGEST humiliation. May be physical, may be emotional, may be career, may be family.. whatever la..how come hoh?

For me, once a while falling down is fine…i think. as long as we get up again.. we learn new things. like today, thinking back on my fall last night, I think i learn the value of friendship…

Ecclesiastes 4:10
If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!

Last night, Huilin hugged me up, the rest of the buddies, look on my way watching/ “cheering” me to get up. I do have other friends during different ares in my life that had done that and I much appreciate you guys!

What do you think bout falling down?

A story of a boy.

Hey guys,

I’m back in Kuching for 3 days now and 3 more weeks before I leave again. Things had been up and down for me. But over all still blessed.

I was a little discouraged yesterday and the side effect showed till today apparently. Well, it’s not sales la. Maybe just something for me to think about moving forward of my career. I was a great discouragement it seems to spur something in me again.

My aunt saw me and came saw me and share a story of a boy with me. She said,

There’s this one little boy who stays with his mum by the beach. He needed to find ways to earn some cash to pay for his school things. So, his mum said, “each day, if you help me to sweep the floor, i’ll give u 20 cents.” Obviously that wasn’t alot of money. But he took it anyway. He is again thinking of ways to get more cash.

His mum suggested that maybe if he would pick up really nice sea shells and paint them, maybe he can sell it for $20 a piece since it’s a tourism area and the shell and paints itself do not cost much. But for sure some days or months he will not be able to sell any and still have to “open stall” each day for long hours, pick nice shells and paint them.

If you are the little boy, what will you do?

My aunt ended this story saying this:

Story behind this is that, sales is like that too. Maybe every 20 people you meet, you close 1. Like the boy, if he paints everyday, his creativity gets better and his painting gets nicer, he gets to sell more but he have to pick nice shells, open stall and paint everyday to get better. So for you, maybe as you get better, every 10 you meet, 1 buy… and the first number gets smaller. BUT, everyday you must go out there and sell.

I guess, for wadever we do, not only in sales, but in any career that you try to build, keep doing what you need to do correctly helps… Just thought it’s a good story to share..

Just had pork leg rice yesterday. It’s yummy.
