Diversify
It is a wild world out there. There is so much to be explored and so much to conquer. I am certain that business is the way to go. I am trying drawing to see if it is my niche. I also signed myself up as a tutor. The options is still wide open. I must see the limitless possibility and make that my strength. Still, I want to make the best choice in my polytechnic choice. Make it worth the effort. Utilising the skill for the future.
I invited Bako over to take a look at his website yesterday. Web design is another open option. We talked business. He wants to try a new exercise program. I will be his guinea pig. I welcome the idea with open arms. I like the idea of helping one another. Also my 600 share of ERS will be cashed in on Jan 1 2005.
Sign of Strength
It has been said that asking for help is a sign of strength. So, I got this from Man-of-Arms from the cartoon He-Man. But it is so through. I did just that asking help from an old friend. I asked about vbscript and I can finally get on with my learning.
I managed to cover this month's target of 7800m yesterday night. My weight is still hovering at 85kg though. I want to relive my peak back post BMT. It took less than a year to gain back the weight. It is all in the mind. I will have to stay strong always
Very Much On Track
I want to seize every second that I have towards achieving greatness. My running program is still ono track. I commend myself for the effort. Today I did speed running 2600 and another 2500. I will attempt this month's target of 7800 very soon.
Financial wise, I must put my business ideas out there in the market. I will work the fine details. The idea is to move forward always.
Social life on the rise. I will do my best to keep improving this. Having money would make this easier. I gave big bro a piece of me again today. As I said, I will bark when people touch the wrong buttons. If you are reading this, come on... earn our respect. Start treating your siblings more like your friends. It feels great. Letting it out.
This is liberating. World, I am opening up to you. I no longer want to keep unneccessary burden locked inside me.
Surprise Surprise
So, I decided to go along when ex fellow Rp Rahim asked me over to his place. Did nothing at his place. Then we had a meal at S11 in Tampines. We had lamb chop which we both believe was actually chicken. It was pretty delicious however.
I wanted to pray at Darul Ghufran. And so we were on our way. Surprise surprise. We stumbled upon Azizan. Azizan was an Rp in Gloucester. We had our differences. I could laugh it off about what happened between us before. I would'nt know how he felt though. He was as Azizan would going to buy a game. But he did say he had moved to Hougang. 600++ near Hougang NPP. Currently working with Cisco in a bank but hoping to quit. Life goes on...

I want my life to be a great one. I am still young and there are more challenges for me to overcome. I want to make a mark in my education. To excel academically is one dream that will be realised with hard work. I am blessed with gifts from Allah. Focus is something that I need to do. I must decide what I want to do for the rest of my life by next year and work for it.
There may be financial difficulties or difficulties in other form. Generally, I am ready to make that plunge. I have to fill up every minute of my time with productive and progressive things.
Asking for help is a sign of strength. I actually got this quote frome He-Man, the new cartoon series but it is one advise I must take for I have always acted otherwise. I had always thought that if I could do the job alone, might as well do it myself.
I must learn to share my difficulties with others and share even more joy.
Learning The Quran
I am glad that I chance upon this class through my brother. On Thursday, Big Bro, myself and Shimah went to this 'Quran translation class'. None of Big Bro's friends came. Neither did Bahktier saying that he needed to accompany his mum to his grandma's place.
The realatively poor turnout aside. I hope that the class will transform me to a better man. I hope to make continuos learning a forte in life. As it is though in Islam. I had a good first impression of the Harafiyah teaching style. I have a clearer perspective of the arabic language compared to the years I spent in En-Naeem. I am geared up for what to come.
No Job, Bills are piling
I am jobless and my bills are pilling. I hate it when I owe somebody money. Still the jobs out there are not of my liking. Then again I cannot and will not let my bills pull me into bankruptcy or whatever. It is my responsibility as an able bodied man to get my own money. I might want to try working at Shell as a cashier.
New skills, new responsiblity. I usually shrug off responsibility. Now I am learning to carry on more responsibility and the power that comes with it.
Right now I am absorbed in making cartoon strips, hoping to send it to Berita Harian. I hope this will act as an income. The start of my artist career. I have seen comics in Berita Harian and I think I can do a better job. I just finished printing the script frame. I need to develop my characters further.
