Hitting the Gym

I hit the gym on a weekly basis to shape up my muscles. I am a newcomer to gym but after the few sessions, I am quite addicted to working out. Though I am a newcomer to working out, I do not want to engage a fitness instructor despites being targeted by them. Actually the gym equipment is not too hard to use, it takes just some time and one should be able to use the equipment easily.

Busy and Fruitful weekends

I had a busy and fruitful weekends. I have just read a Sunday Times report on how some fresh graduates earn at least $10,000 per month but the long hours and efforts they put in are also significantly more than their counterparts earning average incomes.

I do not have 5 Cs, I have only 1 C

Many Singaporean women look for husbands who possess 5 Cs: cars, condominium, cash, credit card and country club membership. Of these 5 Cs, I only have a very modest credit card. In terms of cash, I earn very little every month. Hence I do not have any of the aforementioned 5 Cs.

Internet Network Acess Security

My network security became unsecure last night and I spent 2 hours trying to rectify the router and modem issues. It was in vain as I am not too IT-savvy. Luckily my brother, who is an IT expert came to my "rescue" and hence I am now blogging away. Thanks Brother!

Energy

I have grown older. Coming home everyday after looking at the computer for hours during work has sapped my energy. I am no longer young. I have postponed my jogging session for many times already. Sometimes, I wish I could be more wealthy so that I can give more to my family.

Durians Durians

I bought 5 D24 and D101 at a good price of $20 and had a feast with my family tonight. The durians are super creamy, sweet and bitter! It was so SHIOK!

Washing Dirty Carpet

Tonight, I washed the dirty floor carpet which was not washed for a long time. As I dipped the carpet into the washtub of Detox, very black water oozed out immediately!

Everyone is blessed in some ways

Everyone is blessed in one way or another. There is no such thing that a person is not good in all arenas of life. There will bound to be arenas where a person is good at, as compared to others.

Display of National Flags has lost its meaning!

National Day is around the corner hence it is natural for Singaporeans to show their love for our country by displaying the Singapore flags outside their HDB units.

Changi Airport needs to improve its English

I was at the Singapore Changi Airport today waiting for the skytrain when I had a long-needed laugh. An almost 2-metre tall Caucasian tourist looked at the skytrain signalling display, pointed at it and asked 2 customer services what the words in the display meant. The words in the display reads:"Please give way to alighting passengers."

A typical Wednesday

Today is the middle of the week, a typical Wednesday. I am reorganizing my priorities as time is sacred after office hours. There is a slew of work to do but there is a limit to one's energy (after work).

Work Life Balance

I ran today after work, it was a long time since I ran. Spending 10 over hours in front of a computer the whole day is no joke. One will bound to have some bone problems and health problems.

A time to Blog

I believe there is a best time to do everything to the best. Same goes to blogging. I would like to seek your kind understanding if I do not blog on Singapore Short Stories blog on a daily basis as afterall I have a job to do and personal errands to run.

Why I should not complain about my job?

My job is not fanatastic. My job is below my expectations. I have latent potential and I mean I should be able to be in a better job and earn more money. However career luck is not with me. I am not complaining as I need this job to earn a living. So I am contented with this job though I can definitely do much better if given opportunities. However this is life!

Organize

I believe organization in life is very important. Google, one of the top companies in the world offers the service of organizing information. In our personal life, I cannot stress enough the need to organize every aspect of our life from our thoughts to our chores and strategies.

Being hardworking

One should be hardworking to enjoy the best life has to offer. One should be hardworking in all arenas of life. I am hardworking. Hardworking is I.

MRT Fare to increase

I am not too happy to hear of the proposed increase in MRT fares. The MRT train is now sardine-packed at any hour of the day, it is hardly comfortable. With many things going north due to inflation, it is sad to hear that MRT fares are to increase further.

Peaks and Valleys of Life

In Life, there are always up and down, peaks and valleys. When one is in a valley, he will climb up one day.

Procrastination

Though I hate to procrastinate, I find myself procrastinating. I have been putting off quite a number of things to do for months. My reason is that I am tired after a very busy schedule at work.

Singapore Life

I have neglected this blog for quite some time already. It is now timely to update this blog more regularly to be in tune with myself. Blogging offers me a catharsis mentally while jogging and other physical exercise offers me the physical catharsis.

Why I Blog Lesser These days

I blog lesser these days as I am very tired from working and working. Weekends really seem to just fly past and I am still left tired and not recharged from the many hours spent working and working. I want to feel rejuvenated!
