| Mum always told me have no fear to do good deeds, yes i agreed with what she said. However, at times when I tried to do something good, and wanted to pass this joy to others, the response were cold even if I tried to initiate a few times...
Perhaps Ah Ma was right, as she said that she would only pass her joy to the one who appreciate it, not the one who ignore it...
Sad? Yes...
Disappointed? Yes...
But it's ok, caused I have to always remember that it's about doing good things and sharing joy with the ones around me. At the end of the day, at least I can smile to myself and say...
至少我已经做了，而且是真心付出自己的一份诚意。。。

| I only do 'cardio-workout' once a year, and that's during chinese new year. That night I had my 'cardio workout' till 5 plus am. It was no fun and sway for continuously 2 rounds sitting below an expertise where I have to solely depend on my super rusty Kungfu.
In between, still have to encounter player "鬼上身", chanting and making prayers, really pattern more than badmitton. The rule of the 'cardio workout' was totally new to me, and to prevent myself from dying, I came out with a set of techniques in hope that I would at least survive in the end of the workout. So after giving a few tokens away and divided by two, I still managed to get 30 from a generous player.

| Just updated with 'The Stuff of Nightmares: http://bryanwong1987.blogdrive.comHave you always had perpetual nightmares which makes the lines of real and illusions blurred? What if these go on for not days but months? Well, trips to the botanic gardens and a night out clubbing helps. Note: I have not even clubbed in December so don't judge me! Xmas is coming! Even the weather feels like Christmas! | |

its getting far n few that one will ever receive greeting cards these days. i'm not talking about obligatory xmas, birthday or new yr cards from your credit card company, business partners or insurance agent. a well thought after, meticulously written and mailed card from someone who seals their best wishes for u.
i am never a card person. u can practically count the number of cards which i've sent out in my lifetime. its just not in me. my best fren dennis used to make really beautiful n creative cards for us. but its just not part of his lifestyle now. haha. i keep my best wishes for ple whom i care n value; spoken, unspoken. most of the time it shows as an sms, telephone call or thru some online media. i guess it's the way of my life and it's the same with many people out there. perhaps its also why i, as much as possible organize little gatherings and cook for my friends especially as a way to stay in touch other than a blog or a fb profile and not taking a friendship (even kinship) for granted.
as i opened my mailbox this morning. many xmas cards were in. one card touched me most. its from a uni fren of mine, liptong. i'm sure he has a unique message for every recipient of his cards and it makes it all the more endearing by etching a special moment he's spent in his life w someone he calls - a friend. i wld like to share a tiny bit of lippie's card to me. he said,
"best-est time spent in the treatment room with you... *laughing*" :D

| home for dinner today.
frustrating morning, can't get any of the people i called. rushing the out sourcing contract where the costings have to re-calculated and re-calculated again.
not planning for lunch but when hunger really sets in, and not getting anywhere with work, so went for lunch with aly. the vegetarian udon is good.
things got better after lunch, completed most tasks by the late afternoon. when to visit the hotel client to pass them the gift for their dinner and dance.
walked to liang court to cut hair but realised that too broke to do it after transfering some money to sky. | |

being on a high protein, low fat, low carb, low sodium diet didnt seem to work very well for me. :p haha well, i'm just trying out to see if such a dietary pattern has actually any substantial effect on my flabs. the good news is... IT IS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL!! :O
did my body composition analysis last week. i'm happy to say tt by weight, protein mass and fitness score went up. BUT!!! my body fat% went up to 7%!! how strange n frightening is tt! in other words.. i shd just eat anything!! ANYTHING!! and remember tt i used to say tt desserts make me slim? i think its really true for me. i have no sweet tooth, but i think i shd just do less of those calorie and fat counting. eat all and anything i like!
chicken in a biscuit, anyone? ^^

can impressions can be misleading? of cos it can! what's ur impression of me should u guys know me from this photo before really knowing how i am in person? i'm pretty sure just by looking at this photo, words like homely, hard worker, considerate friend, caring son etc will never come to mind. haha! (not taking the chance to compliment myself! haha just an illustrative example!)
welcome to the world of impression. everyone ard us, to a certain extent is playing a sort of character that they consciously and sub-consciously want to be/wish to be/be as a form of escape/as a form of impression to achieve certain goals or motives in life. i'm in no way condemning or dropping in my vote for any of the mentioned. its just a way of life tt everyone is entitled to chose and as the saying "willing seller, willing buyer goes"; the ple ard them accept them for who they see and who they can relate to. however, if the person is actually how he seems, is probably secondary. :p ple thrive on looks and impression. its a fact!
the reason why writing this entry came to mind is tt my hsemate made a comment abt living w me today. he said, "charles u r actually a very simple person, u dont have much wants or wishes and u r indeed very different from e rest of the guys i've seen." i take tt as a compliment. cant possibly fake much and for tt long to ple living 24/7 with me isnt it? just glad to be me, as me. i suddenly remembered abt wat my best fren said abt me too. he said, "well charles siew bao, no matter wat u do, how u dress.. after a while, ur tail (true nature) shows which tells u not to be too hard on urself cos u only need very few things at e end of e day." how true! perhaps some ple cld read me like an open book! i'm prob just a few pages. haha which is good! so it saves the guessing work! :p but well, ple have also said tt my few pages can take many yrs to decipher! open to interpretation!
i get it pretty often tt "hey i know u so well from ur blog!" i take it as a compliment tt frens of frens (of frens of frens) tune in and i'm glad to share bits of my life, not just as a way of keeping in touch w ple (frens n family) i know but in e process of sharing, to help ple i prob will never meet to improve their quality of life and hopefully to inspire and make life better. life is abt learning, experiencing, sharing and taking a leaf from someone's experience isnt it? however, tt doesnt mean they know me. they just know a small part of me.
perhaps its the way i write, what i write and things i chose to share, my life may seem eventful, delicious, full of hype or even voyeuristic to some who cant relate to how the blogsphere works. truth is, it might not just be so. u gotta understand that a blog, or even a virtual space like facebook only allows an individual to focus and share abt JUST a FEW aspects of their lives. and i have no wish to expand that few aspects!
i definitely will chose not to display everything out in the open. it can be a horrible, naked feeling! only a select few of e ple ard me whom i will share my private life, thoughts, fears, happiness and sadness with. privacy is something which everyone is entitled to and hopefully they can share w someone they trust and love.
a long time ago, someone who loved me alot asked, "charles would you stop blogging for me?" my answer was "no, cos u know the contents were meant to keep ple whom i know in touch w my life, create conversational topics when we meet and they blog, leave comments as a wonderful modern way of maintaining a frenship. besides, the contents were just tip of e iceberg." but today shd someone i really feel for ask me the same question, "i'll say yes i'll stop." or if the person is easier on me, i'll just blog occasionally, but contents will be selective. i think its silly to blog and cause troubles to a part of my life :p!
as for what kind of impression am i creating for myself when it comes to my livejournal blog, friendster and facebook profile? honestly i dont really care because i post anything i want and there is nothing dark or disgraceful abt my life tt i have to hide. neither will i have the energy to craft a hypocritical persona to con the world. its tiring to ever lead a double life acting as someone u're not and hiding the sordid truth abt urself to ple who are dear to u. as much as the real me is never fully revealed online, the bits u see/read are real. i cld come across as energetic, sporty, fun loving, silly or optimistic to some; and foolish, pessimistic and paranoid to some. but isnt a person's life made up of so many, many facets? just dont judge a person based on a few mere entries! ok, hundreds in my case :p
i am not trying to make any point w this blog entry. just some food for my thought and for your thought.
well, at this point in time.. i'm looking forward to keeping an even bigger part of me private; perhaps its in preparation for some things to happen or to make it easier to (hopefully) allow someone to come into and stay in my life. and i think its been something which i've always wanted to do. kinda like a mental and emotional spring cleaning. perhaps there was so much happening over the past few yrs tt prevented me from doing so. and perhaps there wasnt someone inspiring enough to steer me towards this course.
life is like a box of chocolates. u nvr know wat u'll get and wat u'll end up with. however, no one shd lose themselves in the process. and with this, i once again remind myself how much i treasure my core values. it has never changed and it will never. :D there is a very huge private part of me tt yearns to be shared with someone i feel for as well. haha ok, that's a big part of the real me! :D

| Or is it just hidden under my messy table. A lot of times in life, you dunno whether you have lost something or you still have but just cannot find it at the moment. I hope my iPhone earphone will appear. Posted via LiveJournal.app. | |

| There's always 2 or more angles in seeing things, it all depends on which one you choose and believe in, and sometimes there's simply no right or wrong with your choice. More like, how articulate, strong and firm can you hold on to your choice and belief and to convince and influence others. Below document is a good example...
I know animal lovers going to raise their banners and protest after seeing this clip. Yes, i thought it was a cruel method but indeed it happened and perhaps we can use this as a negative material to educate our young generation that this is not the right thing to do.
However, for those who into survival course would have think that that's an unique and effective way to catch a snake. The theory is almost equivalent to using traps to catch an animal, but instead this method probably used primitive method and requires extremely great courage to do it as a mistake move may end up in disaster consequences.
