Dinner @ Orchard

Had an enjoyable dinner discussion with one of my best friends at Orchard area. In fact, we are also debating about is it possible to be passionate about something if it really don't generates income. Well, to me is that I think it's because of passion that someone becomes successful 'cos of the numerous famous successful people that I've known so far. But she was thinking that if they didn't make that much, they won't actually be that passionate about it after all. So it's actually because they've made a fortune from it that they became even more passionate about the things they did. And it didn't end up with much conclusion on that area in the end.

Then, we went for window shopping, looking at the latest bargains at taka. In fact, who says that taka only sells expensive stuff? So far most of my night gowns for wedding dinner are bought there and most are bought at the sale. So it actually didn't cost as much as most people had imagined it to be. After that we noticed that the Christmas Decos are already in the making. But of course as usual, I'm the only excited one about it. She can't believe that the Decos are already up until we both saw that Tree in the making. And I'm reminded as the "famous" Christmas Tree photo upload-er as most of the Christmas tree photos she has seen so far are usually uploaded by me lol!

She's right but then that's 'cos I loved to take photos especially Christmas Trees, it's always amazing to see how many different types of trees are around. Every year, it's always a somewhat different design altogether. I just loved taking photos of them and admiring them at my own leisure time. :P

I believe that it's the passion that makes one truly successful (though I have met people who only chase after the money)...

With passion, we will not easily give up and keep pursuing till we are truly successful despite the inevitable challenges in each of our different journeys.

Hi I'm that friend she went out for dinner with.. I believe passion should be a way of living, instead of an intense pro-longed enthusiastism for a single activity.. Having fire and passion for everything you choose to do will give you success no matter which field you choose.. Hence, no matter what your decision is, I wish you success in everything you choose to do.. :)

Monopoly Deal - A Fun Game to Play @ Chalets!

I felt that Monopoly Deal is really a fun and challenging game to play, especially at the Chalet. There are many rules to the game, but luckily we had a  monopoly deal rules expert with us to double-click with in event of discrepancy! I feel that it requires strategy and some form of luck to win the game. So far, I always get good property cards sets but it always get taken away 'cos I don't have the "Just say NO" card and it tend to get taken away, especially if I've a complete set. Then, I tried the strategy of not putting up a complete set, then it also doesn't really work 'cos in the end, I don't end up putting my sets on the table. Perhaps, I'll need to play a lot more times and try different methods till I get the idea right I guess. If you do have the chance, try playing that game. It's really exciting, 'cos you'll never know how long will your properties stay with you! As well as, how much money you can have in your hands. T...

Business Network International

I went for one of my friends' Business Network International gathering today. It's actually quite interesting, although initially, I'm quite lost. But after some time, then ok le. A new experience I should say, with a group of people that likes whatever each other is going so much and having lots of fun! The people there are really very friendly, so I shall add those that I've talked to into my hotlist then. Just that I'm not too sure if they really remember me :P But after sometime, I'll need to replace my friend for about 2 weeks so it should be ok I guess. The only downside is that. 7.30am is really a tough timing to wake up and go for the meeting. I'm glad I'm there. I'm so blessed!

Shaun Stenning - Story of the Refund Request

I'm merely sharing the harsh truth and facts about the refund story started by Shaun Stenning himself. My post is biased toward my personal experience so judge it yourself. First of all, there was originally a blog post in their site to tell us that there will be a refund statement or something that will be send to us some Release Agreement but nothing ever happen other than the acknowledgment email reply which I've received from Shaun: "On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 12:15 PM, Shaun Stenning <shaun.stenning@dollarrose.com> wrote: your refund request has been received, please note that we will not be actioning the request until 1st March 2011 when you will receive the Release Agreement Shaun" After that, I just visited that link again and it has already been removed entirely. It's now loading page not found instead. If you were me, how would you feel?
