Rolex watch

Today, together with friend, went to Hilton Singapore @ Orchard road (Sincere) to buy Rolex watch (S$14227 for 1 pairs after 16% discount, almost the cheapest pairs in the shop), over there, I got to know more about rolex.

1. price of Rolex in China 25% higher than it in Singapore due to higher tax;
2. They increase Rolex price 5 - 8% every year;
3. some of people who bought Rolex are not wearing the watch, just keep it at home like gold;

lost my mobile phone (Samsung Onmia 2)

I lost my mobile phone (Samsung Onmia 2) last friday in company (I bought it at cost of S$398 with 2 years' MIO plan on Jul 09), I believe i left it somewhere unattended and one of contractor took it. I called up Singtel hotline and terminated the service and they agreed me to bring forward the contract from next yeat and re-sign it at current promotional price. So I bought a new phone (Sony Ericsson C903) with renewal of 2 years' i-Oneplus plan at cost of S$188 this tuesday.

人生职业生涯的五个黄金阶段 (转)

人生职业生涯的五个黄金阶段 (转)

  人生的职业生涯是很漫长的过程,但是其中的五个阶段被誉为黄金阶段,让我们来一起分享一下。
  (一)首先是二十四岁到二十九岁,我称做〈工作试用期〉
  在此期间要尽量去摸索、尝试各种工作,毕竟实际理论与理想总会有所差距,常听一些刚入社会的年轻人抱怨:这份工作没有前途、根本学不到东西。甚至一些年纪已不小的人,老在唱回想曲:当初如果怎样、怎样,现在就会如何、如何。其实,到了最后还在发牢骚,除了浪费自己的口水,还会吵到别人。
  我要奉劝所有的年轻人,这段期间,在找到真正适才又适所的工作之前,宁愿不断的换工作!是的,不喜欢老板、工作环境不如想象的好……都可以马上离开。海阔天空,想做什么就做什么,千万不要勉强自己,明知道工作不适合,却没有勇气站起来辞职,或顾于面子——要证明自己也有工作,能胜任任何工作,再加上人类天性攫取厌动,所以对工作〈食之无味、弃之可惜〉的情形屡见不鲜。工作不快乐,却一直耗着,拖过一天算一天,慢慢的就自然会掉进了工作只是糊口的陷阱。
  对很多人而言,不换换工作,有时还真不知道自己最喜欢的会是什么。比方讲商科的人,能做的事太多了,可以拓展市场,可以做市场分析师,也可以做商务行政的事,如果不多尝试,老是在头一个工作上原地踏步,岂并成了井底之蛙?因此,要好好利用这五年去挖掘潜能,如能及早认清自己,便已在成功的路上迈出了一大步。
  (二)二十九岁到三十四岁,我称做〈奠基期〉
  孔子强调〈三十而立〉是很有道理的。到了这个时候还不知道在做什么,还在天天换工作,那可就要拉警报了,你在二十九岁以前找到了一个真正适合自己志趣的工作后,下面五年就必须静下心来,全力在工作上学习,奠定基础。我认为这是年轻人在创业阶段中最重要的一还环。
  一个人到了三十四、五岁,如果还看不出一点点成功的倪端,潜力无法发挥,甚至还在摸索、彷徨的话,根据专家指出,他的〈前途〉大致已定。
  (三)三十四岁到三十九岁这五年,我称之为〈冲刺期〉
  在此期间,无论体力、脑力都达到了最颠峰的状态,由于已经奠定了基础,可以在最擅长的工作岗位上,好好冲刺,充分发挥。据我观察,一个真正有实力的人,到这一阶段几乎可以独当一面,成为高级主管了。
  (四)三十九到四十四岁,是〈发扬光大期〉
  这时冲刺已经结束,正迈向成功之途,所以要顺势将奋斗的精神发扬光大,找寻全方位的磨练与挑战机会,将工作的局面增量扩大。
  (五)四十五岁以后则进入〈享受期〉
  此时并不是什么都不用做了,而是要准备把工作经验传授给下一代,在〈施比受更快乐〉的人生最高境界中好好享受一下。这就是说,你一方面在工作岗位上仍要贡献智慧,另一方面则要多花时间去培育子女或训练员工。

RC (residential committee) as observer

I joined RC (residential committee) as observer since Nov last year and experienced many activities for past 8 months. RC, the same title called JuWeiHui in China, but more active in getting people involved. I as a Singapore PR here and functioned as grassroot leader in pioneer zone 11, attend monthly meeting for updated info, participant in organizing activities (harmony racial day, national celebration, lantern festival…) for residents, sometime need to sell the tickets, hang national flag for others and weekly duty at RC office…

What do I get from RC?
- meet more people just stay nearby your house;
- know what is going on in this zone that you are living and get yourself involved;
- managing facility in the zone and you can meet more people;
- some benefitt for members
- others

A man is as great as the dreams he dreams

A man is as great as the dreams he dreams,
as great as the love he bears;

As great as the values he redeems,
and the happiness he shares.

A man is as great as the thoughts he thinks,
as the worth he has attained;

As the fountains at which his spirit drinks,
and the insight he has gained.

A man is as great as the truth he speaks,
as great as the help he gives,

As great as the destiny he seeks,
as great as the life he lives.
