Letter

Got the above letter weeks ago out of nowhere inviting me to apply for the post of Military Security Investigator. The description matches my preference perfectly and enticed me to apply. However, the pay i expect for the above job is at least $2000, as my former Auxiliary Police job already earned me a gross of $2.3k

Of course, i bet 50/50 on the application outcome. Anything related to the uniform, Security, Military, Bodyguard, Special Forces can intrigue and entice me to join them. It is also a fact that i don't deny being in one of the forces may be able to satisfy my sadistic hunger for fantasy, actions and kills, though in reality,in our local context, all these may not be too feasible. Put it in a rather positive way. Defending the nation and having the security of our nation at heart is my forte, while actions are my fantasy.

Right now i am still waiting for the outcome, while doing so, another recruitment company recently called me out of nowhere, told me they searched through jobstreet and asked me to take up another executive assistant position at a private education centre, due to my previous experience as a relations officer in APMI. Of course, this is a milder, but i would say, a more positive industry, which is also my second favourite, to be in the education sector.

Will go see how, as nothing will be confirmed. To graduate from the degree and clearing the last term of the whole course at end September is my top priority. High rank, high pay is my only pride. I am someone who prefer to lead, than to follow. I am someone who loves power and likes to manage. You have to give me power to give me dignity. You have to be auto respected by me to let me be under you.

Arrwoo!! *Fist up*

Writing in to DBS.

Here's a little informal suggestions to DBS, let's see if next few weeks, the action is taken:


'Hi there, i've been staying in Ubi Ave 1 Blk 342 to 352 cluster for more than 10 years. But it seems that there is an inconvenience to getting an ATM, as the nearest is at the Central.

Although it is a walking distance, i believe for those who don't drive, it will still be a hassle to walk a good 15 to 20 mins to the central to get the POSB Bank's ATM each time.

Likewise, if i have to go to the bank/ATM/Deposit machines, i will rather drive than to walk a distance and perspire, so you can see for those who don't drive and need to walk, it's a hassle.

Taking a bus 1 to 2 stops is also a waste of time and money, just to intentionally go to the ATM.

My strong suggestion in mind over the years is that if possible, please install an ATM and Cash Deposit at the cluster of Blk 342 to 352 as this cluster is the end of the residential HDB area, which the rest of the parts are all industry area.

Thank you for your time, and i sincerely hope that this suggestion could be implemented, for the convenience of everyone in the area'.


Regards,
Kenray

Let's see what will happen.....

First Date Etiquette

Dress appropriately for the occasion - be it a formal dinner or an outdoor activity.

Saying nothing actually means something - express how you feel through a gesture or a smile, just don't hide your feelings.

Adjustments never end - your life may look great for a moment, but it can change. The point then, is to enjoy every step of the process and moments of your experience.

Walk your talk - people respond to demonstrations of values rather than demands. Live out what you believe through your actions instead of expecting people to change to make things better.

There's no price tag on love - whether your date is happy being with you is not dependent on how rich you are.

Satisfaction depends on where you look - do not just focus on a person's weakness or flaws, everyone has a gift or talent you can find if you look for it.

The more you give, the more you will believe in yourself - by doing something for someone, both of you will enjoy each other's company a lot more! It will also increase your self-confidence.

Lastly, emotions last longer than events - remember that your emotional reactions wil be remembered far longer than the issue that is upsetting you.

The Ying and Yang cannot balance.

Where's my fucking CB confidence. I set an inner standard within myself so high that when there's a little flaws, be it work, studies or leisure that they will hurt my pride and ego, and i am sensitive on how people sees, when people in reality base, doesn't really care.

I'm feeling no confident towards ladies, that is why love never happens. I don't have the habit of calling people, especially gals. This could have been years conditioned till numb now.

I am never able to sleep early at night, and i think i jolly well migrate to the State one day, where the day is the night here, and the night is the day.

My problem is such a great extend of high level that logically, no one can sees what's really wrong, and i definitely cannot solve it myself. My close buddy says he hears my problem as a no problem, where i see things as a problem.

I sometimes could not balance my ying and yang qi, perhaps. I cannot balance the good and bad. I cannot balance the peace and love.

An unknown fear sometimes keep attacking me. I am so spiritually sensitive.

Could it all be becos of the unable to sleep well at night, thus the morning seems horribly hallucinated?

Nothing can really seems to satisfy me well. Where's the joy, where i find no joy in many things.

Could i be unsound? Could i be living in illusions? Was i being cursed?

Or could it be bipolar(like Ris Low)?

The mystery is yet to unfold....

Words of wisdom from Strategic Brand Management

Set your goals based on your values, not on i could, i would, i should or i will if.....

Stop waiting for anything instead, initiate 100% of the time.

Keep your long term goals in mind and act accordingly.

Not everything on your To Do List is urgent and important.

Accept help from others so that you can accomplish your goals.

There is only so much you can accomplish in a day and it's usually less than you aim for.

If you get six things on your To Do list done in a day, you've accomplished a lot.

If your system isn't working, figure out why, fix it and try again.

You need to look at tomorrows schedule today.

You need to look at today's schedule today

If you do it now, you won't have it hanging over your head later.

Believing you will never be organised is a self-fulling prophecy.

Believing you can be organised is also a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Jusy because today seems a mess, doesn't mean tomorrow can't be productive!
