Brian Setzer Orchestra is awesome. Period. This is what you call great music. =)
Can't believe but I've actually gotten off my lazy ass to blog again after 8 months of silence! I thot I was just contented to post FB comments. =P
Well, guess felt I bit slightly inspired to blog thanks to a few conversations with some friends. =) Fellow bloggers and old blogging friend. =). Guess I should try harder to maintain this blog coz I don't think Xanga deletes any of the posts. This is a great recollection on my journey of life of who I've been and who I've become and even signs to the future.=)
Just a slight summary of my life now. I have been promoted and am now a Sales Manager at SCB PJ Branch, the famous PJ Branch! Which has been around for more than 50 years. Been super challenging, trying to hit the targets, managing and motivating the team, finding sales strategies, fulfilling operations and compliance as well as handling the walk in complaints. Nevertheless, this was what I asked for and I believe this is also God's blessing to me. =) Now is the challenge of finding the right balance to work and personal life as well as working smart to make sure I don't leave too late.
No longer cell leadear and now feeling a directionless. Hope to find it soon to get involved in ministry more. Feel too free and complacent. =P
That's it for today! Will try to post more soon. =)
Till next time, I'm Kelvin Lim and I am indeed alive! =)
And this is just an amazing quote. Thanks Foong Yin for putting it up on Facebook.
From Conan O'Brien's farewell speech on the Tonight Show
'Please do not be cynical. I hate cynicism, for the record it's my least favorite quality. It doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen'
This is the theme song for The Miz, a professional wrestler from the WWE. This guy is definitely one of the most entertaining people to watch in the WWE because of his interesting one of a kind character. Does a great job of getting the crowd to hate him which makes him even more interesting. And one of his catch phrases that seems to stick out to me is his line 'Because I'm The Miz and I'm Awesome.'
Awesome. What does Awesome mean? Dictionary.com states 'An inspiring awe.' Another popular tv show How I Met Your Mother states that Awesome is a sense of being. Hence, my quest for 2010 is to be a year where Kelvin Lim just be Kelvin Lim and simple be awesome. Inspiring to self, to others and glorifying God the best way I can. Only 1 New Year Resolution and that's it. I will be myself and be awesome. =)
And they say you don't learn anything from watching pro wrestling or tv. Well I guess some things in life speak to you if you're listening or are looking to listen.
Great good ole rock and roll. Never knew Nickelback could rock like this. This is truly a song that speaks to the adrenaline in my head.
Blogging. Something that use to be a norm and formality for me yet now so few posts here and there. Gosh, I wonder how many interesting life events happened in between that I've fail to note down. Already I'm lacking pictures from landmark events in my life. Heh, and having a camera phone doesn't really motivate me that much. Most of the pictures through my camera phone are parking lot numbers for me to remember where my car is. =)
Its December! One of my favorite times of the year for obvious reasons of course. =) Good thing that Stand Chart closes our sales target my mid December so I guess I can really chill for the 2nd half and enjoy Christmas. =) And all praise and glory to God as Q4 has been my most prosperous Quarter and I've finally achieved the 'E' in ESAU, meaning Excellent. =) God is good. God has been great to bring a new colleague whose very presence is a huge reminder to me to keep positive.
Sometimes I think too much. Maybe I just need to do things more.
I'm on a quest to get a new car! Gosh, its pretty stressful coz they're just so many Sentra's to choose from. Just hope I find the right one with not much problems. =) Anyone know a trustworthy used car dealer although I know trusthworthy and used car dealer is almost non synonymous. No offence if you're a used car dealer. Haha, the nerve of this car dealer wei I met recently. He tried to sell me a car for RM43K and after I bumped into an internet ad saying that its RM41.5K, he still refuse to reduce to RM43K. Insane....whatever, that guy doesn't deserve my money.
It was awesome hearing about how awesome the Youth Camp was. Makes me miss certain things and help reminded me to keep my focus on the main things in life that make me smile. =)
It hurts me the most when the people you care about the most rolls their eyes at you in a non joking manner. O, well, I hope to stop the eye rolling, coz these are people whom I'm actually care about. How time flies and things change, heh....no use looking back sometimes...just focus on trying to build a better new future. =)
Love life and be awesome. Smile as God is the strength of your heart. Amen. =)
Cheers and hope you got something out of my random ramblings tonight. =)
Its like Michael Buble read my mind and put all my thoughts into this song. =)
Be positive, Kelvin Lim. Just be (the best) you. Thats all. =)
Im Not Surprised Not Everything Lasts. I've Broken My Heart So Many Times I Stopped Keeping Track. I Talk Myself In I Talk Myself Out I Get All Worked Up Then I Let Myself Down.
I Tried So Very Hard Not To Loose It, I Came Up With A Million Excuses, I thought I thought of Every Possibility.
