The following was a speech I gave last night at Pungol Toastmasters Club …
It stemmed from my own experience last weekend, where I took an impromptu visit to Malaysia. At 11PM at night, I took a bus to JB bus stop. Found the next bus to Kuala Lumpur. And wasted one crazy day in [...]

First, some good news for my readers – My job’s all finished up, I’m a free man again!
Last night, I wrapped up the project I’d been working on for the last 6 weeks. (Like a good boy, I stayed at the client’s office until 9:30PM).
So, to celebrate my first day of my return to the [...]

In the middle of writing this post, I went down to pick up dinner. Now, near my office there’s two kinds of eating places. There’s the ordinary working man “Food Court”. And there’s a Ah-Beng “Food Centre”

I have two friends – A & B.
A & myself go to a class conducted by B. Be is an unusual character. For strangers, he is rude, obnoxious and meaningless. For his friends, he is the greatest inspiration of life’s wisdom … seriously.
Over the past weekend, I was talking to friend A. In one [...]

In the beginning, we are all alone.
We spend 9 months in a closed, confined space just letting our body learn how to operate itself. We grow vital organs, ensure that we will survive to see the future … and all, in all are too busy to worry about anyone else.
Then we are born.
The first [...]

I haven’t talked about this on my blog. In fact, I haven’t spoken about this to anyone but my closest friends.
But I’m going through a real tough time – professionally.
And I’ve wrestled with talking about it on this blog for a long long time … A part of me thinks that putting my vulnerabilities out [...]

American scientists just found the first evidence that Elephants can recognize themselves in the mirror. For us humans, that doesn’t sound like a big deal, right?
But in the animal kingdom, that’s a very unique gift to have! Only humans, apes, dolphins and (now) elephants can look in the mirror and see themselves. All other animals [...]

This thursday evening, I saw a wonderful hindi movie – “Lage Raho, Munnabhai”. For the first time (in a long time), I see an Indian movie worth recommending to all my friends!
The movie is about a lovable goon, who instead of beating people up … spends time playing Robin Hood and falling in love with [...]

I lost a big deal today. It sucks. I really thought I could take on a serious role in that organization and help them make some revenue … but … urggggggh!
Logically, I’m perfectly at peace with the situation. Both sides made the best decisions they could … and now I should logically move on, to [...]

This week, finally took a few hours off work to go to POE coach training. As usual, it was Pete spinning webs, opening loops and making himself look like an idiot to all the new coaches.
As usual, those of us who understand how he works … were sitting back and chuckling at the perplexed faces [...]

“This is gonna be a quick blog … I’m on a coffee break between a meeting”
Have you ever felt out of place?
Ever looked around you and seen many people … but just not related to them?
Ever felt like you were meant for something greater than the ordinary people around you?
Yet, at other times … when [...]

It was yet another crazy busy week! I’m suddenly regretting my new-found obsession with closing more deals and getting more clients …
Anyway, through the whole week, I did find time to play some sports and gym a bit …
On Friday night, I played ice-hockey with the boys. Mostly got my butt kicked (although the matches [...]

I can’t explain it.
I’ve been feeling out of sorts lately. For the last 4-5 days, I’ve been kinda blue, not all that cheerful … and I’m definitely losing my charm!
Last night, I was at a football gathering and instead of walking around making friends with everyone, I preferred to sit in my chair and watch [...]

A few minutes ago, I went for lunch with my intern. He’s a smart young man … just finished 1st semester of Uni. He’s extremely enthusiastic, driven and sweet … always calling me “boss” (I’d pay his wages just for the ego boost!), and offering to buy me lunch & dinner.
But he’s also very restless. [...]
