Hottie in the Picture

My uncle occasionally sends me forwarded emails in Vietnamese. And since I'm "buta huruf", I need Google Translate in Gmail to help me decipher the email. Half of the times I can vaguely guess what it's all about, but the other half I'll be laughing my head off at their translation.

One example is as below:

Asian hottie? Any where, any time, any information, any reason! LOL!!!

Remember the Big Picture

It isn't often that I find forwarded emails worthy of a repost. However this was one that made me stop and think - zoom out from the pixelated view and focus on the big picture.

Heavy rains remind us of challenges in life. Never ask for a lighter rain. Just pray for a better umbrella.
- That is attitude.

It's a No Go.

No email reply is always a bad indication. And a confirmation of this came in the form of a hardcopy letter via snail mail several days later. (but I still think replying an email enquiry is courtesy, regardless of whether it will bring good or bad news. Email etiquette would recommend for at least a neutral, vague reply rather than no reply at all)

Worship Night with Sidney Mohede

It was a busy day at work, with the farewell of our CEO and a thunder storm in the evening. I had to walk as fast as I could with my slippery Croc-like footwear from my office to the Ampang Park LRT station in the midst of a medium drizzle and plenty of lightning and thunder. At one point, I think a car honked at me just as a lightning bolt struck somewhere near me (I only glanced from under my umbrella a flash of light).

Yellow

Today, Malaysian history is being made. The local TV stations are telling us lies - all having their "balls" clutched by the Government. But we are still able to know some parts of the true situation via the great Internet and international news agencies.

He Replied! "My heart skips a beat"

I have been diligently (but discretely) monitoring my inbox since April, specifically for one purpose. It seems I'm in a state of indecision again. I don't know why I keep putting myself into this situation, time and again. Excitement and disappointment, worry and ecstasy. Perhaps I'm still searching for my true calling. Or perhaps I don't trust myself that I could go far with the path I am/will be taking.

When Android, iPhone and Nokia 3310 Battles

It's really amusing how I manage to stumble upon funny things when I stalk my list of iWants. Currently the primary iWant is the HTC Sensation! I don't care whether it is lousier (feature-wise), thicker, heavier and more expensive than the Samsung Galaxy SII, I just love how it looks - the curves and lines.

Anyway, this is what I found on one of the lowyat forum pages and it really tickled me! I don't know where the person who posted it got the pictures from. (Disclaimer: I claim no copyrights for the pictures below as I do not know its origin. However I commend its owner/creator for creating at least one more smile {me} in the world with his/her good sense of humour)

When Text Speaks

I have heard people testify that the Bible speaks to them. Many have said that the words/verses in the Bible literally leapt out at them when they were seeking life answers, often times in time of need. I, personally have had some such encounters but have never taken the time to record them down.

Therefore today I will do so

Today I Learned What PA Really Means

Before I proceed, let me include a disclaimer: The following refers to a small portion of persons holding the said occupation and is not meant to generalise or be taken as across the board traits of those holding the said occupation.

Today I learned that some PAs (Personal Assistants) really take their jobs too seriously, and as a result turn into real PAs (Pain in the Asses).
