12/12/16 :-  Time is money! 時間就是金錢！ Time is money, many of us have heard that at least once in our lifetime. However, how much do we really understand this simple sentence? We need to really monetize it. What does that mean? Imagine if every 15mins of your time is worth $1,000, then would you be doing the thing you are doing now? Would you be hitting the snooze button for 15mins or wake up 15mins earlier to exercise for a healthier body? Would you be wasting half an hour to watch Korean drama or read a book to increase your knowledge? Would you spend an hour time working overtime to fulfill someone else dreams or would you leave the office and spend an hour learning how to build your own dream? So, the next time you want to do something, think again. If 15mins of my time is worth $1,000, would I want to do the next thing I've planned to do? 時間就是金錢，我們很多人這一輩子都至少有聽過一次。 但是，我們到底有多少真正了解這句話的意思？ 我們需要將它金錢化。 那又是甚麼意思呢？ 想像自己的每15分鐘相等於 $1,000，那麼你是...

28/11/16 :- You are never ready for that heartbreak date... 你永遠不會為那突然的心碎紀念日做好準備。。。 I am the old fashion man who is still used to having a physical organizer to mark all my dates, appointments and important stuff down. Heard from a speaker some time ago, "We marked all sort of dates on our organizer, but we can never predict that one day we would be marking down the death anniversary of someone we love." It pierces right through my heart. To make things worse, I was actually doing my 10km run in the stadium on that day. Tears were welling up in my eyes yet I have to force myself to finish the run. Why do I go back to our old house every year on this date? Though I know no matter how many years I go back, or what I do, it would never bring Grandma back to life; I cannot allow myself to miss this date. I know I can never repay the woman I love most in my life. Thus, I'm putting in double or even triple times more effort in building my business now to bring ...

22/11/16 :- 離家，是為了回家。。。 We left home seeking to return one day… 今天聽了夥伴的夢想板，感觸良多。 加上回想起上個星期六，帶了母親一同去參加女神，董宥均的地方研討會，眼淚不禁在眼眶打滾。 当下，就想到這句話，“離家，是為了回家。。。” 有多少親人朋友從馬來西亞來到新加坡工作，為的就是能賺多一點錢拿回家讓家人過好日子。 但是，甚麼是好日子？錢，要賺多少才夠？ 之前就看了一份報導，如果說你每三個月回家一次，假設你父母還有三十年與你一同共度，是否發現你只能多見他們120？ 那么，在假設每一次回家三天，其實你剩下與他們相處的日子只剩360天，比一年還少！ 我們很多人都很安逸，尤其是居住在新加坡的我們。 大多數人，從沒想過，有一天你的老闆可以毫無理由叫你馬上收拾走人。 試想，頓時你會變成怎麼樣？ 是否，已經做好準備，有了備胎？ 就算有的話，是否足夠？ 沒有人想要失敗，但是卻有很多人不願付出努力去爭取自己想要的。 沒有一件事是容易的，但是你真的要沒有嗎？ 如果，現在放棄了與家人的相處是為了將來所有的時間都能陪他們，你是否願意？ 但是，以這些放棄的時間來打工，加班，光做一些沒有產值的事，到頭來很抱歉，你或許與家人的時間已到此為止。 當你父母離開後，若你也有自己的家庭，依然重複你這幾年在做的事，你只會得到同樣的結果。 每天都走同樣的路，永遠不能帶你到不同的地方。 在你離開的時候，你的孩子也即將重複你的一生。。。 今天的你，是否在為將來奮鬥，所做的一切是否能為你帶來財富，時間自由，健康的體魄來陪伴你的家人？ 若還沒有，是時候好好深思這問題了。。。 我感恩自己已經做好準備並為母親與我未來的小家庭努力奮鬥。 家族翻身從小小的我開始。。。 Heard our partner shared her dream board today, emotions filled my heart. To add on, I have just brought my Mum along to attend my goddess, Stacy Tung's local seminar over the weekends, tears welled up i...

I have been Giddens Ko's fan for the longest time. Thus, when my friend, Taron strongly suggest that this movie is worth watching, I headed straight to Lido and bought a ticket after our dinner. I'm glad I make the decision to go ahead and watch this movie. This is truly a thought provoking movie. As expected, there was a twist to the story. Throughout the movie, the story line keeps you engaged. In your mind, you probably try to link and anticipate the next scene. Are we where we are because this is where we belong or we are blocked by our own deadlock? What is holding you back? Society? Fear? Self-doubt? Sometimes, you need to force yourself a little more, give yourself a little push. Of course, we do not need to do the extreme stuff as shown in the movie. This show is rated R21, contain sexual, homosexual and violence content. Thus it is not suitable for conservative and timid audience. 我早已是九把刀的書迷。 所以當朋友 - 達人強力推薦此片時，我馬上赴完約後就到電影院買了張戲票...

25/10/16 :- Do not let your convenience inconvenient others. 別讓自己的方便妨礙他人。 Everyone is in search of a convenient way to do things. I understand everyone has their preferred way of life as well. However, I believe that in living the way that you want, one should not cause unhappiness, discomfort or inconvenience to others around them. Age does not show your maturity. It is merely a number telling the world how long have you been living or wasting on Earth's resources. There would always be people around us who thinks the world evolved around them and do the slightest things without a little common sense. I hope my readers are none of theses selfish, foolish, childish people. 每個人都在尋找最方便的方式做事。 我也清楚地了解每個人都有自己選擇的生活方式。 但是，我也深信在過著你想要的生活的當兒，沒有人是應該把不快樂，不舒適或不方便帶給周遭的其他人。 年齡不代表你的成熟度。 那只不過意謂你利用或浪費了多少年的世界資源。 我們身邊難免有一些自我為中心的人，總是會毫無普通常識地進行一些簡單的事。 希望我的讀者都並非屬於那一群自私，愚蠢與幼稚的人們。

壓力是推動力！ Pressure motivates people! 阻力是爆發力! Resistance creates power! 19/08/16 :- 壓力是推動力， 阻力是爆發力! Pressure motivates people, resistance creates power! Do you work well under pressure? What do you do when you are faced with resistance? I used to be boiled down by pressure. In the past, with a little resistance, I tend to quit. However, due to experience and perhaps as age catches up, things are no longer the same for me now. Most importantly, I am currently hanging out with the right groups of positive people. With the awesome energy and right attitude, I move forward with direction. Though it may not be easy now, I know in time to come, all these is going to be worthwhile. What do you do when you get cold water splashed over you nearly every week or every now and then? Do you get discouraged or move on? You are the only person who can fight on for your own success. Similarly, you are the only one who can decide that you should fail. Do not let others de...

Haven't done a movie review for the longest time. However, this movie brought about too much emotions not to blog about it. I think I have never or seldom give 5 stars for a movie too. In my opinion, this movie deserves the 5 star rating totally! Throughout the show, it keeps you excited. Feeling fearful for those wanting to stay alive. Makes you curse and swear at those who sacrifice others for the sake of their own survival. It makes one think, "If I was in their shoes, what would I have done?" Will I try to stay alive at all costs or would I sacrifice myself for my love one? Or would I stoop so low to make others die in order for me to survive? This movie brings you reality of humanity. If there's any movie you want to watch, it has got to be this! 好久沒有寫電影評論了。 但是，這部電影帶來了不少情緒，讓我不得不寫部落格。 我想我好像沒有或者很少給一部電影五顆星。 我的觀後感是，這部電影絕對值得給五顆星！ 看著電影，沒有一刻能夠冷靜觀看。 你會為那些想生存的人提心吊膽。 同時也為不顧一切就為了自己能存活下來的人，對他們破口大罵。 它讓人反省，“我若是在他們的處境，我會怎麼做...

She has been the best supporter for 4 years. 她已當了我這 4 年來的最佳支持者。 31st July 2016 marks my 5th year in helping to raise funds and create awareness for the children at Children Cancer Foundation by taking part in Hair for Hope. However, my Mum has decided to join me for the first time! I'm truly so proud of her! Just last week, I had dinner and a heart to heart talk with my lyrics classmate, Christine aka Shang Rui. Few years back, she decided to come and work here in Singapore. Initially, her parents objected strongly. However, seeing the positive changes in her whole family ever since she came here, she never regretted making that decision. This was what she said, "I never expect the little decision which I made will affect my family members that much." She said something else which my idol, Stacy Tung has mentioned before too, "If by working harder, my parents/Mum can enjoy more and faster, I am willing to do just that." Coinciden...

《 談勢力的愛情 》 作词：林夕 作曲：黄韵玲 改編自林曉培 – 心動 改編詞 : 　鷹艾文 你的一點一滴   我還放在心裡 安靜地躺在抽屜裡   是你送我的專輯 已發黃的日記   記載我們多少回憶 我偶爾在夜裡思念你   苦澀帶著甜蜜 談實力的愛情   太擁擠 儘管再努力   也住不進你心裡 哦 ~ 應該說對不起還是我愛你 見證你的婚禮默默祝福你   退回角落裡 含著淚離去   不等待著奇蹟 鐵了心忘記你   你的近況不再提起 因為我其實就像只螞蟻   存在 也没意义 已經嘗試好久,一直無法把這首歌寫完。 今晚，聽到自己的故事在 YES93.3 播出後，終於把詞給填完了。

因为广播是 PG， 所以部分内容在 YES 93.3FM 被念出时是被删掉的，这我能理解。 在此，一字不漏地与大家分享我的心情小抽屉。。。 嘿陈宁， 你好，今晚扭开收音机，听到的前面两首歌就是你播了，周兴哲 - 想回到那一天，还有 MP - 我还是爱着你。 听了之后，感触良多。 两个多星期前，突然想到了自己的初恋情人，莫名有种想法闪过，“不知道，她结婚了没？” 结果，就手痒，点击她的脸书。。。 那晚，6月1日。 刚过去的周末，5月28日，代号 - 36 结婚去了。 分手后的我们，依然保持联络。 多年后的我们，也曾经两个人一同出国。 初恋在 16 岁，一个我还不是很懂女生的年龄。 做了很多蠢事，让她不开心。 一气之下，在冷战后的一个星期，我们分了手。 幸运的是，年轻的我们，吵了不久后，和好了。 虽然没有复合，但我们继续维持良好的友情。 22岁那年，我要求复合。 她，凭着自己的某种理由，婉拒了我。 当时的她说，“现在的我，对你也有好感，但是 xxx ， 我们还是继续做朋友会好一点。。。" 也有用脸书与简讯继续联络，偶尔还是会约出去吃饭，看电影。 但是，我有个原则，她也晓得。 就是只要她一交了男朋友，我就会自动停止约她出去。 24岁那年，她结交了新男友。 从那时到现在 33岁的我们， 9年都不再约见面。 在街上，也只撞见她与她当时的男朋友一次。 但是，她在前方，并没有发觉我的存在。 曾经，我们在脸书上提到，如果任何一方先有喜讯，一定会通知彼此。 当我点击了她的脸书，看到了她的喜讯，在自己的脸书上分享了  田馥甄 - 这个人已经与我无关。 妹妹看到了后问我，”你难过吗？“ 我的回答是，“说真的，我是失望比难过多一点。不是说好还是朋友？ 不是说过会告诉对方吗？ 原来只是客套话。或许， 我们之间有过的回忆是她不想再记起的，我明白。但我不要求出席，只是没想过不被通知。” 为了她，我第一次把头发给剃光。 与她分手后的我，把右拳头的首两只关节骨以墙壁与灯柱打碎过，到了紧急部门包扎。 到现在，举重的东西时，还会有后遗症的痛。 也曾像看电视剧一样，对自己的肉体造成伤害。 还曾经像一个...

17/04/16 :- What do you want to leave for your kids? 你想留給孩子的是甚麼？ What do you want to leave for your kids? Have you even considered that? I do not have children yet but I have 2 god children. Just like what I mentioned on the ang pow to George; when he grows up, Godpa would want to be able to teach him how to grow up rich and earn residual income. Qiqi once told me this, "If I can, I hope to be able to provide my children with education till University. Because our family was not well to do, I need to work and do part time study at the same time to repay my education loan and I know how tough it is." But, is that the best way? I would not want my children to go through 10+ years of education just to received an University certificate and earned a better chance to work for others for 40-45 years. Throughout these years, they build dreams for the rich and do not even have a guarantee future of being able to retire comfortably at age 65. Do not get me wrong, I ...

16/04/16 :- Who are you accountable for? 你對誰有責任？ I've invited my whole family to be present during my 1st dream board presentation, . For a simple reason; my dreams are all about them. Since young, other than being a devoted guy in love, I'm well known for my short span interest in other stuff and give up easily. That was why I've choose to invite my family to the presentation, it's like letting my team be the witness for my promise to them. Many would have heard the analogy of doing the same thing for 21 days and it would become a habit. The chances of giving up after that get reduced significantly. Since 01st Aug 2015, after I've make an important decision to start planning for myself and change the life I am leading with the actions I've started to take, my family has gotten used to the changed me. Going out till at least 10pm to fight hard for my dreams after I've knocked off from my day job has become a norm to my family members. Howev...

28/03/16 :-  父愛比較含蓄。 Fatherly love is more reserved. He was not my hero. I have never said I want to grow up to be like him. I did not think he was someone I am proud of. It was not even a love-hate relationship we had. However, when he passed on, things slowly took a change. The things he did and words he said, they slowly came back to me... I start to ponder and at times, it brought me heartaches. Recently, I was talking to a new friend on how he has nagged at Mum and me when Mum bought me my first hamster. Then, not long after, he bought me a male one for the female hamster I had. My friend's first reaction was, "That is his love for you. He loves you." It has never dawn on me. Such simple words, it strikes me. Just like many always say, "Just because someone do not love you the want they do, it does not mean they don't." 他不是我的英雄。 我不曾說過長大後要跟他一樣。 我也沒以他為傲。 甚至，我們連愛恨關係都沒有。 但是，當他過世之後，事情開始改變了。 他做過的事，說過的話，...

Whenever I see this group of friends, I always thought of what Mum said, "In everyone's life, (those who been through secondary school) you would be the closest with your secondary school friends." I'm a blessed guy who is never short of friends. Not just friends, or 1 BFF but a handful of BFFs. Believe it or not, it's in my bazi characters. Thanks to Mummy for giving birth to me there and then. In a flash of an eye, we are celebrating our 20th years of friendship. Growing up was tough, definitely not a smooth path. With their presence, it was so much more bearable. We have all been through lots of ups and downs and also seen each other's worst" state. Though you may not remember, but I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, ladies for :- - Watching me cry when I only got B3 for the first round of "O" levels Chinese. - Being there when Dad left my family. - Listening to my love history and giving wor...

19/03/16 :- Words - Make or break! 言語 - 廉價的代價！ Words which you said, can make or break somebody. Sometimes, it is just for that moment. Most of the times, it lasts for a lifetime. From "Men are Lunatics, Women are Nuts", it was said that the average woman speaks around 5000 words per day whereas the average male speaks around 2000. How many of those words do we actually remember? How much do we prepare ourselves before speaking them? More often than not, we do not remember what we said nor do we have any preparation before speaking them. Yet, we neglect the effect it would have on the listener. Throughout my life, I've heard many things which others have unintentionally spoken. However, they have a deep impact on me till now. As I have been motivated by the positive feedback and was disappointed at the negative comments given, as far as I can, I try my best to only speak of positive encouraging words to people around me now. Howeve...
