True meaning of life

Life is a paradise for those who love many things with a passion.

The future belong to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Treat your friends as you do your pictures.... and place them in their best light.

I am a happy boy...Happiness is not getting what you want, its wanting what you have got.

I've learned....That it's those small daily happenings that make life so spectacular, that being kind is more important than being right and that I can always pray for someone when I don't have the strength to help him in some other way.

One should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them. Be nice, kind, humble and live life to the fullest.

Are you lucky?

2009-10-27T06:48:00.002-07:00

Those who think they’re unlucky should change their outlook and discover how to generate good fortune,says Richard Wiseman.

A decade ago, I set out to investigate luck. I wanted to examine the impact on people’s lives of chance opportunities, lucky breaks and being in the right place at the right time. After many experiments, I believe that I now understand why some people are luckier than others and that it is possible to become luckier.

To launch my study, I placed advertisements in national newspapers and magazines, asking for people who felt consistently lucky or unlucky to contact me. Over the years, 400 extraordinary men and women volunteered for my research from all walks of life: the youngest is an 18-year-old student, the oldest an 84-year-old retired accountant.

Jessica, a 42-year-old forensic scientist, is typical of the lucky group. As she explained: “I have my dream job, two wonderful children and a great guy whom I love very much. It’s amazing; when I look back at my life, I realise I have been lucky in just about every area.”

In contrast, Carolyn, a 34-year-old care assistant, is typical of the unlucky group. She is accident-prone. In one week, she twisted her ankle in a pothole, injured her back in another fall and reversed her car into a tree during a driving lesson. She was also unlucky in love and felt she was always in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Over the years, I interviewed these volunteers, asked them to complete diaries, questionnaires and intelligence tests, and invited them to participate in experiments. The findings have revealed that although unlucky people have almost no insight into the real causes of their good and bad luck, their thoughts and behaviour are responsible for much of their fortune.

Take the case of chance opportunities. Lucky people consistently encounter such opportunities, whereas unlucky people do not. I carried out a simple experiment to discover whether this was due to differences in their ability to spot such opportunities.

I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper, and asked them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs, whereas the lucky people took just seconds. Why? Because the second page of the newspaper contained the message: “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper.” This message took up half of the page and was written in type that was more than 2in high. It was staring everyone straight in the face, but the unlucky people tended to miss it and the lucky people tended to spot it.

For fun, I placed a second large message halfway through the newspaper: “Stop counting. Tell the experimenter you have seen this and win £250.” Again, the unlucky people missed the opportunity because they were still too busy looking for photographs.

Personality tests revealed that unlucky people are generally much more tense than lucky people, and research has shown that anxiety disrupts people’s ability to notice the unexpected. In one experiment, people were asked to watch a moving dot in the centre of a computer screen. Without warning, large dots would occasionally be flashed at the edges of the screen. Nearly all participants noticed these large dots.

The experiment was then repeated with a second group of people, who were offered a large financial reward for accurately watching the centre dot, creating more anxiety. They became focused on the centre dot and more than a third of them missed the large dots when they appeared on the screen. The harder they looked, the less they saw.

And so it is with luck – unlucky people miss chance opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers determined to find certain types of job advertisements and as a result miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for.

My research revealed that lucky people generate good fortune via four basic principles. They are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition, create self-fulfilling prophesies via positive expectations, and adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.

I wondered whether these four principles could be used to increase the amount of good luck that people encounter in their lives. To find out, I created a “luck school” – a simple experiment that examined whether people’s luck can be enhanced by getting them to think and behave like a lucky person.

I asked a group of lucky and unlucky volunteers to spend a month carrying out exercises designed to help them think and behave like a lucky person. These exercises helped them spot chance opportunities, listen to their intuition, expect to be lucky, and be more resilient to bad luck.

One month later, the volunteers returned and described what had happened. The results were dramatic: 80 per cent of people were now happier, more satisfied with their lives and, perhaps most important of all, luckier. While lucky people became luckier, the unlucky had become lucky. Take Carolyn, whom I introduced at the start of this article. After graduating from “luck school”, she has passed her driving test after three years of trying, was no longer accident-prone and became more confident.

In the wake of these studies, I think there are three easy techniques that can help to maximise good fortune:

(1) Unlucky people often fail to follow their intuition when making a choice, whereas lucky people tend to respect hunches. Lucky people are interested in how they both think and feel about the various options, rather than simply looking at the rational side of the situation. I think this helps them because gut feelings act as an alarm bell – a reason to consider a decision carefully.

(2) Unlucky people tend to be creatures of routine. They tend to take the same route to and from work and talk to the same types of people at parties. In contrast, many lucky people try to introduce variety into their lives. For example, one person described how he thought of a colour before arriving at a party and then introduced himself to people wearing that colour. This kind of behaviour boosts the likelihood of chance opportunities by introducing variety.

(3) Lucky people tend to see the positive side of their ill fortune. They imagine how things could have been worse. In one interview, a lucky volunteer arrived with his leg in a plaster cast and described how he had fallen down a flight of stairs. I asked him whether he still felt lucky and he cheerfully explained that he felt luckier than before. As he pointed out, he could have broken his neck.

How to be lucky?

New day

2009-10-27T06:11:00.000-07:00

It was just one of those days

where you walk in a crowd
yet a path parts for you.
You never slow down
and if you come to the edge,
you step off eagerly
and fall with the confidence
that they're waiting for you down below
arms wide open, to break your fall."

This is a joke man

2009-10-24T03:52:00.000-07:00

why does it even bother me so much?

Currently in bsc building .4 words to conclude everything REALLY NOTHING TO DO!!!
They were saying that it is just a start and thats why it has not much things to do.

A good for a start i guess. Hope eventually it will still be good. Sometimes i just feel so empty in my life. should i stay on this team or should i pursue something else?

The Four Candles burned slowly.

Their Ambiance was so soft you

could hear them speak...

The first candle said, "I Am Peace, but these days, nobody

wants to keep me lit." Then Peace's flame slowly

diminishes and goes out completely.

The second candle says, "I Am Faith, but these days, I am

no longer indispensable." Then Faith's flame slowly

diminishes and goes out completely.

Sadly the third candle spoke, "I Am Love and I haven't the

strength to stay lit any longer."

"People put me aside and don't understand my

importance. They even forget to love those who are

nearest to them." And waiting no longer, Love goes out

completely.

Suddenly...A child enters the room and sees the three

candles no longer burning. The child begins to cry, "Why

are you not burning? You are supposed to stay lit until the

end."

Then the Fourth Candle spoke gently to the little boy,

"Don't be afraid, for I Am Hope, and while I still burn, we

can re-light the other candles."

With Shining eyes the child took the Candle of Hope and

lit the other three candles.

Never let the Flame of Hope go out of your life.

With Hope, no matter how bad things look and

are...Peace, Faith and Love can Shine Brightly in our lives.

I have been telling lies nowadays, people often asked me am i feeling ok? i would just say i am not feeling well. Actually deep down, emotionally unstable. so please keep a distance away from me for just this period of time. i tried covering everything with a smile but it just don't seems to work.

Bro, Let time be the healer for you

2009-10-06T06:28:00.000-07:00

May he live in peace up there

I really hope my dear bro is all right and definitely, we will always be there for you.

Personally me myself i felt that life is really unpredictable and it is only when you lose something, you begin to realize how you really enjoyed having it there, and how much you really needed / wanted it.

He told me that it happens too suddenly, and he never get a chance to tell him how much he mean to him. It really hurts a lot.

However what i want to tell him is that .Try to Remember something positive. Even if the events leading up to the death were negative, make an effort to remember a happier time.

Don’t forget the other people in your life who lost this special person too. They really need you and you need them. Provide them with your valuable support and understanding with your grief.

Don’t let grieving consume you. Mourning is a natural part of healing and moving on, but you can’t let yourself drown in it.

Move forward! No matter how difficult. Find the strength, the courage and the resolve to get on with your life. Deep down, i believe your father would want just only that for now.

Life is full of up and down

2009-09-25T19:21:00.001-07:00

Is time to fly and the sky is the limit

2009-08-23T23:26:00.001-07:00

The thought of it just feel like thousands of ants crawling all over my heart , each taking a bite before they leave. Could this be the end? or is it another door opening because of this door closing? This thoughts set me ponder upon and set me into a state of unknown to me before. Is it you? or is it just me?

Sometimes i really wish i am just a Dove flying around.

Credit to Mr juayyy zi haooo!

People! lets share the wisdom together!

First of all , this post is dedicated to all hooligans in Singapore.

Note, I used the word 'Hooligans' instead of gangster.

If u do not know the diffference.

Go check out the dictionary.

Theres a lot of gangsters/mafia in the world.

In Singapore?

Maybe not.

Like the post title suggest, I guess I need not elaborate further.

Its self explanatory.

Before u continue,

This 'MIGHT' be a long post, depending on how u look at it.

And I believe it will make absolute sense to everyone who reads it.

This is something I learn quite sometime ago.

However for wadever reasons I will not state and it doesnt matters,

NOW I will share it with everyone.

And 'HOPEFULLY' it would educate most of my 'target market segment'

Before I begin, there is something that needs to be explained

even it might not be scientifically proven, but hopefully u would understand the meaning within.

You have probably heard the idea that everything happens for a reason. It is a great example of what can be called "useful lies."

Everything happens for a reason? What nonsense! On the other hand, what a great idea! Whatever your religious or philosophical background, this is a belief that you can use, even if it isn't true.

There is no way to prove that everything happens for a reason. In fact, when you think about some of the truly terrible things that happen to people, it seems almost rude to even suggest it at times. But as a personal belief, it can do WONDERS for your outlook on life.

For example, suppose you lost your job. There must be a reason, so you start looking for one. Soon you find your "true purpose" in life, get a better job, and have more happiness. Without the belief that things happen for a reason, people sometimes are just devastated by such "bad luck," and do nothing to better their lives, right?

If u believe that wadever negative things that happens to you, on ur life, ur spouse BECAUSE OF BAD LUCK.

YOU WILL NEVER IMPROVE. !

Lying To Children (And Ourselves)

Notice that I put "true purpose" in quotation marks above. Why? Because this is another idea that may be nonsense, but is useful. It gives life more meaning, and so may lead to more happiness. It is like telling a child that he can be anything he wants to be. What nonsense!

This is easily proven false. I won't even give examples here, because you can think of many reasons why some people will never be able to do some things. On the other hand, the general idea can be very motivating. If a child is told instead that there are only some things she can do, she'll likely start ruling out many of the things she really might be able to do.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT

The belief can be false and still work,but even more interesting is the fact that it doesn't even have to be a belief. In other words, you may actually think that the idea "anything is possible" is nonsense, and yet still use it. Think of it as an "operating principle." Act as though anything is possible and you'll find more possibilities in life than if act on more skeptical principles.

I recently read a true story about Bill Harris, the founder of the Centerpointe Institute, one of the bigger online distributors of motivational CDs. When his company was young, he was sued for a million dollars. Although the lawsuit was frivolous, it was going to take a lot of money to defend his company - money he didn't have. Did this happen for some higher reason? I doubt it.

Harris, however, seems to believe that everything happens for a reason, or at least he acts as if this is true. As a result, his reaction was to sit down and list sixty possible benefits of being sued, starting with "I can learn about the legal system." He says that every one of the benefits on his list came true, and today the company is bigger and better than ever. That's the power of a good idea.

You can use good ideas like good tools. Pick them up and set them down (and pick up a better one) as necessary. You don't have to cling to them as some revealed "truth" to get the value. But if you really do believe that everything happens for a reason, and my concept of "useful lies" has shaken your faith, just assume that this has happened for some good reason.

These are what I call "useful lies." It isn't even about whether they are true or not (maybe it's actually true that everything happens for a reason). These kinds of beliefs are generally impossible to prove (hence the designation of "lies"), and often blatantly silly, but they organize one's thinking in a way that leads to more productive outcomes. If you believe that you were "meant" to be a writer, for example, you won't get discouraged from that writing career as easily as someone who just "gives it a try."

Let me state another example in layman terms that happen during our daily life,

Lets assume one fine afternoon, u are feeling very bored.

U happen to be lying on ur bed and staring at the ceiling.

And suddenly ur phone rings.

U saw a msg from ur bf/gf/best friend.

'HEY WAD U DOING'?

Reply: Doing nothing

Have u ever asked why ?!

First of all, u are doing something.

Lying on ur bed and staring at the ceiling is doing something.

EVEN when u are asleep u are doing something.

And obviously, u are sleeping.

That is why the word is created in the first place.

AND AGAIN, the reason is stated right from the start.

Why are u 'doing nothing' as u proclaim it to be though u are lying on ur bed and staring at the ceiling.

The reason is plainly because U ARE BORED !!!

Do u get it now ????

The next part of today's post I'm gonna touch on is THE SIX NEEDS OF HUMAN ! [ALL OF THEM ARE IMPORTANT AND CRUCIAL IN SHAPING A PERSON IN HIS LIFE] ITS PROVEN !!!

To summarise,

1.Certainty/Comfort.
We all want comfort. And much of this comfort comes from certainty. Of course there is no ABSOLUTE certainty, but we want certainty the car will start, the water will flow from the tap when we turn it on and the currency we use will hold its value. [Self Explanatory]

2.Variety.
At the same time we want certainty, we also crave variety. Paradoxically, there needs to be enough UNcertainty to provide spice and adventure in our lives. [Do u wanna go to school/work, go back home finish up ur assignments, go to sleep and repeat it the next day FOR LIFE???]

3.Significance.
Deep down, we all want to be important. We want our life to have meaning and significance. I can imagine no worse a death than to think my life didn't matter. [ AND THIS IS THE POINT I WANNA TOUCH ON TODAY, WILL ELABORATE FURTHER LATER]

4.Connection/Love.
It would be hard to argue against the need for love. We want to feel part of a community. We want to be cared for and cared about. [Self Explanatory]

5.Growth.
There could be some people who say they don't want to grow, but I think they're simply fearful of doing so—or perhaps NOT doing so. To become better, to improve our skills, to stretch and excel may be more evident in some than others, but it's there. [eg, do u feel good when u teach ur lil siblings something they do not know]

6.Contribution.
The desire to contribute something of value—to help others, to make the world a better place than we found it is in all of us. [eg, do u feel good when u give 10 dollars to a beggar without limbs]

Now that u know all the six 'NEEDS' [not wants] of a human,,

Do take sometime to process it.

I can finally go straight to the point

Question: WHY DO some people choose to be a hooligan den to live their lives to be a successful someone.?

ANSWER: SIGNIFICANCE/IMPORTANCE.

They wanna feel important, they wanna let people know that they exist,

They wanna feel significant 'RIGHT AWAY'

Remember 'RIGHT AWAY' is the key word here.

First and foremost, ask urself.

How will or how can someone make themself significant or important to others ?

Some of the examples:

Becoming a super famous and rich man,

Becoming a famous singer,

a famous dancer/ beat boxer, artist, lawyer, doctor, entrupreuner, and so on.....

Again, look again at all the examples I have just listed.

All of them TAKES TIME TO fulfill.

And some people wants it right away.

They want it to be significant at a younger age and sacrifice/ruin their future for it.

Lets say someone takes a GUN and point it at ur head.

IMMeDIateLY, THAT someone becomes significant in ur life.

AM I right ?

Obviously, YES.

Its a gun he is holding, its ur head he is pointing the gun at,

SO, does that explains why do some people wants to be a hooligans instead of creating, shaping their future into something brighht, something of value, something their family would be proud of .

In conclusion,

this choice is made by the stupidest person in the world.

If anyone who can understand my point will agree with me.

I GUESS I DO NOT HAVE TO ELABORATE FURTHER.

Up till this point if u still do not understand I do not know what to say.

But to tell u, U have wasted 15 min of ur life reading this dumbass useless post. =D

And after spending one hour of my time typing this, I really hope readers of this post will understand.

And hopefull it does benefit u in someway or another.

TATA SIS AND BROS.

All comments would be entertained,

good or bad =D

There are so many things in the moment that is pressing down on my neck and is causing all the breathlessness within me.

Recently, i had a series of dream which i think is bad. Dream somehow reflects upon what is constantly in our mind-the subconscious mind.

Life isn't as colorful as how it was back then.It is quite sad how things actually turn out to be this way.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac? no? think again :)

Mum and Dad don't really from now onwards i will try my utmost ability to help out to overcome this crisis together . There is 3 word that i have long to tell the both of you and that is i love you :/

A series of event happened in the month june and may alone .Be it good or bad, it just felt so much like a dream to me. It was a bittersweet dream and one thing about this dream is that i have learn so much so that i myself couldnt believe it. Carmen-you have taught me so many thing like how to deal with a girl the next time. Your immaturity have just proven so much of you and. In 10 years time i will come and look for you again and i strongly believe by then you have start to tone down. You have a longer road ahead before getting that one thing-maturity. Bye carmen.

SIGH

2009-06-14T05:55:00.000-07:00

The lowest point of my life. I am devastated

It's your choice how you live your life.

2009-06-13T23:32:00.000-07:00

Talking about choices.I think at different point of time in life choices have to be made be it easy or hard choices.If there’s one constant about life, it’s this: Choices. We can choose to be successful, angry, happy, annoyed, indifferent, etc. When confronted with an obstacle or situation, we can choose the best outcome out of it or the worst.

I believe there are always options, always. It depends on how you think. How much you wanna made your choices worth choosing.

Is really hard for me to decide which path should i walk next. It has been bothering me for months. Wherby my heart tell me to give up and my mind asked me not to. I have been experiencing insomnia over this issue.

On a side note, one more week to Singapore international water feast and National Canoeing Championship. jia you guys! jia you kun! jia you team! jia you kelvin!

No-boundaries
seconds, hours, so many days
you know what you want but how long can you wait
every moment lasts forever
when you feel you've lost your way

and what if my chances were already gone
i started beleiving that i could be wrong
but you gave me one good reason
to fight and never walk away
so here i am still holding on

with every step you climb another mountain
every breath its harder to beleive
you'll make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
to get to that one place
when you think the road is going no where
just when you almost gave up on your dreams
they take you by the hand
and show you that you can
there are no boundaries
there are no boundaries

i fought to the limit to stand on the edge
what if today is as good as it gets
dont know where the futures heading
but nothings gonna bring me down

jummped every bridge
run every line
i risk being safe
i always knew why, i always knew why
so here i am still holding on

with every step you climb another mountain
every breath its harder to beleive
you'll make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
to get to that one place
when you think the road is going no where
just when you almost gave up on your dreams
they take you by the hand
and show you that you can

you can go higher
you can go deeper
there are no boundaries
above and beneath you
break every rule 'cause theres nothing between you and your dreams

with every step you climb another mountain
every breath its harder to beleive
you'll make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
to get to that one place
when you think the road is going no where
just when you almost gave up on your dreams
they take you by the hand
and show you that you can

there are no boundaries
there are no boundaries
there are no boundaries
no boundaries
yeah, there are no boundaries

Impossible is nothing- addidas

The annual team chalet has just ended..it was quite not bad a chalet...especially the playing of risk part!! hahaha..i am glad most of you guys had funn!! a lot of interesting things happen! lazy to write i just simply quote one from luqman blog~

Luqman:

something happened during the trip to OCH. Me, kun and kelvin experienced something that is totally unexplainable.

Lets make it simple, there were 3 buildings, name them A,B,C. We were at block A first, walking around and exploring the place. Then we took a long route to block C and went up to the balcony. Afterwards we went to the girls toilet and saw a butcher's knife with bloodstains in it below e door. Then we went out and went back to block A. We went to the top floor when suddenly....

Kun: Eh, didnt we went to this balcony before??

Luqman: Nahh.. kun you must be dreaming..

Kun: But everything looks the same ! see this vandalism?? its the same.

Kelvin: No lahh.. its totally different.

Kun: See that broken bottle glass? it was there when we were at that balcony..

Luqman & Kelvin : Kun you're seeing things.

And so they walked at the corridor and saw a girls toilet. Luqman stopped.

Luqman: Hey guys, look at that

*To their surprise they saw the same butcher's cleaver with the bloodstains below the door.

Kun & kelvin : Ohh shit..

Luqman: Err guys i think we better go.

Kun & Kelvin: Absolutely.

*They rushed down and existed block A and went back to their chalet.

Ok wasnt it spooky? we were at block C where we saw e cleaver. But when we went up block A, The surroundings and everything was exactly the same. Can you explain??

it was also our the formation of the committe 2009 this are the result for

09/10 committee
Captain: Luqman
Female Captain: Ai xing
Vice-Captain:Kun
Female Vice-Captain: Joyce
Treasurer: me ( kelvin) hahaa loan dolphin
Logistics: Yee Keng
Secretary: Sherlyna

This is just the second part of our jorney..there is still more to come .However, i strongly believe in order for the team to progress and moving on to the next level. Conflicts have to be eliminated and that even if you had no title or position. we can still direct others and make an impact in ppl life ..everyone of us makes a difference in peoples life with or without a position. I do believe we can definitely achieve more result when working with one another than working against each other...trust me i will try my very best to keep the conflicts at the minimal possible level..and assist my captain in everyway he needs. Individuals play the game, but teams beat the odds.
we junior will work together as one upbringing the nyp kayaking spirit for this i would end by saying NYP KAYAKING YOOOOSHHH!!

I hope the captain will understand this verse: "Success for leadership is . . . knowing the great art of directing others without their noticing it".This is crucial =D

roar

2009-04-02T21:38:00.000-07:00

Today shall mark the last second day of us being the junior...Team is nice knowing all of you and you guys definitely play a very significant part of my life! today is the team chalet and is also known as the step down ceremony of senior and we will be risen to the senior position to train the future junior to fight all upcoming challenges..and today captaincy and vice-captaincy postition will be announced..guys we have been together going through all the shits...thick and thin hahaha...no matter who become the captain or vice cap we will still work together as one ..team nyp shall gloriously shine in the future and forever to come...seniors thank you so much..you have taught me how to face all challenges and press on even harder when the odds are going against you..and i will always remember that when everything are against you it means that you are near..so dont ever give up...seniors without you we wouldn't be what we ar now..motivated and the desire to win...you guys really play a great part in our fundamentals and for that we have milllion of thank you to say to you !

2009-04-01T06:29:00.000-07:00

I am totally burned today!!
while paddling k2
Kun: heyy the cloud look like a person
me: check out the sun it look like a satan HAHAHAHAHAHA

this baby is very very x 10000 adorable man!

2009-03-31T07:24:00.000-07:00

For the sake of the team i will do anything which is required to push to a even greater height!
I am so happy about today training i find that i really improve in terms of stroke or physically..However i will not be complacent and go for even more!..Althought kayaking is more of an individualistic sports but we still have to work hard at our own pace and get the overrall championship together be it guys or girls...The way a team perform as a whole determines its success. Even we may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the team, but we don't train and improve together, we will still end up losing as a team

2009-03-27T01:36:00.001-07:00

To those taking part in mr 500! all the best!!! jing tin , joyce , alfred and jun han all the best! team nyp and ( SIM hahah) ftw!..

2009-03-27T01:25:00.000-07:00

class gathering

2009-03-26T00:19:00.000-07:00

Past 3 days was the 5b1ean clique gathering it was really heart warming to see all of them there..as usual we joked around and had much fun together as we always do! Something just never change however somethings have change..but i hope things that change will be the change for the better ..i had no choice but to leave on the second night as i have training the next day.However i didn't go training as well due to the irritating swell in my eyes..think about it we met ea other when we are 13 and here we are some 19 some 20..this is the coming 7 years to be together..my life wouldn't be as colourful if i have never met you guys.Every single one of you had played a crucial part of my growing up life and i am very proud to say this memories will always be remembered..

Back to training..=D

Smooth roads never make good drivers
Smooth sea never makes good sailors
Clear Skies never makes good Pilots .
Problem and hassle free Life NEVER makes a strong person
Be Strong enough to accept the challenges of Life
Don't ask Life , 'Why Me ? .
Instead say 'try Me!'

p.s got this from yvette email haha

2009-03-23T08:50:00.000-07:00

just now i went youtube and look up for some motivational guide and realise that this videos below really touches my heart and i hope my friends who are viewing those videos will feel the same way as me and feel motivated and press on no matter how bad the situation is.It is when thing seems worst you mustn't QUIT!

This is just the beggining

2009-03-21T06:36:00.001-07:00

Today is the day i found my abs and trunk in a way i finally start to utilise my trunk to pull the boat and today is both the worst and best training day ever..ironic isn't it? haha we did 10 big rounds today and the first 3 round was hell with marcus keep on scolding me like never before and we quarreled
Marcus:"we are already laggging behind if you want to be lousy carry on! one month away form PA! and he starts to row lesisurely -_-"
Me:"if you think you are so good go do your own k1 and i will fucking quit this team!"

i just feel like telling him i want to go back to pontun and go back home..However, i pressed on using only my arm muscle to paddle..and it was the most gruesome canoeing experience ever

Here comes the magical part.

After half round of silence i start to feel my trunk and it is only today i learn how to use my trunk to paddle..i was like telling marcus :" marcus i can feel me trunk, i can really feeel my trunk and i can really twist already, lets push it together!" and we pushed together really hard and for the first time ever on k2,we experienced the magical speed and adrenaline rush!..Trunk is really a magical source of power..for the first time of my canoeing i don't feel tired at all after rowing 10 big rounds that is how amazing it is..Ironically,it is still the both the worst and the best 10 rounds ever and i will never forget today. I realise only when i am push to the verge of me giving up it will be the time that i improved the most and it has always been like that, no matter for studies canoeing or anything else.

Is time for me to build up power and better technique to go even faster already and ultimately win the pa championship!

To marcus: thanks for pushing me so hard today without you pushing me so hard i would not have realise i have a trunk today.HAHAHAH...you are the best partner i can ever ask for!..

rest day

2009-03-19T20:14:00.000-07:00

woww so fast friday has come..it seems like during the holiday the time pass faster than usual. hahaha..yup i like friday because it is our only rest day whereby no training on that day..during school time i also like friday because it is the end of school..everybody love friday don't they??? hahaha...I can't wait for 5b1 chalet next week..it would pretty much be catch up session for all of us..no matter how long we never meet or what also don't matter..nothing can ever defeat our strong fundamental-6 years of friendship..

woohoo!

2009-03-18T11:34:00.000-07:00

cool right??? this is my new bloggg!! so damn coool mannn..thanks yee keng for the help !

well i have been training everyday and i just need to correct my strokes which is like very difficult howevere it can be done then i can put in power in the water and go faster already!..come on dont give uppp..When the going get tough it means that success is drawing near!..met up with cis,sheng,yan and hao the bayas yst! it was very heart warming to see all of them doing well in their life never would i expect that in the past hahaha what was that suppose to mean sia...but it wassss reallllyy great to see them after a period of like 2 months or so?

i had my results back during tuesday! and i improve by more than 100% ..i rose my gpa by 0.9 almost 1!..laast sem i got 1.5 all d and c..this sem i got all b and b plus no d and c woohoo! this sem my gpa is 3.2 ! from 1.5 to 3.2..imba right...yea serve myself right for being so complacent during sem 1...well i am an optimistic person i believe one life consist of many up and down..just like mine..however don't give up so easily i believe it is not results or medals that made me grew stronger..it is the process of me standing up again after falling that make me stronger and more determine everytime...i am not smart and i am not a fast- learner.However,bit by bit i will work my way up and become one of the strongest of all..my dreams and passion are never dying..it is not the one who start it first that matter it is the one who ended it strong that matters..i believe the harder the fall the greater the bounce..for that case it works exactly for me...

p.s i won a free mcdonalds meal from jun wei..hahaha because i got more than 3 this sem thanks captain!..

kelvin please keep going

2009-03-03T19:16:00.000-08:00

2009-02-18T10:52:00.000-08:00

POM
SERIOUSLY
SPARE ME
PLEASE!!!

The always happy me

2009-02-07T06:31:00.000-08:00

I use to be a playful guy now i am still
I use to be a fun guy now i am still
I use to be a optimistic guy now i am still
I use to be a self motivated life now i am still
I use to have a lot friends now i am still
I use to love being the joker among my friend now i am still

how long this things are going to change i seriously don't know but i hope i can have this in me through the entire life. I realise in anything i do the biggest enemy is myself..I realise you can be motivated by fear. And you can be motivated by reward. But both of these methods are only temporary. The only lasting thing is self-motivation.Sometimes the hardest person to forgive is really yourself

Currently not doing very well in canoeing as my attention became more diverted towards study and etc. but still i would like use this opportunity to thanks those who has encourage me througout this time.A word of encouragement during this is worth more than an hour of praise after success.I promise i will buck up.I believe What you did yesterday is who you are, but what you do tomorrow, is who you will become . Moving on to k 1 is like being born again and is like cooking the same food using a different recipe.However, i/we must travel in the direction of our fears.Worry + Fear = LIMITATION. Remove one and i will suddenly overcome this obstacle and break the mental barrier.Kelvin you have gotta remember the negative comes from outside while the positive must always stay inside. signing off Kelvin the hopeful guy

2009-02-05T07:26:00.000-08:00

This time round i wouldn't miss it again..

Determination

Like the sun, you need to fall before you rise. When it's sunset, it doesn't mean the sun will never rise again it simply means it's time for something else to happen (night). It's the same with our lives. When we are hurt and down, it doesn't mean we will remain down forever but simply means it's another phase in life that we have to go through. If you always pay attention to sunrise & sunset, after the sun has set when it rises again it's most likely to shine brighter than the last time; it's the same with humans. When you are down & defeated today, make sure you rise stronger, more courageous and bolder. No matter what you are going through, it's not forever.

i am back!

2009-01-31T20:53:00.001-08:00

it's not how hard you train that ensures your success and performance, but rather and how quickly and fully your body can recover between games and training sessions that is most important. it all voice down to one word recovery..how fast you can recover.

exp gained

2008-11-29T05:08:00.000-08:00

This small blow is not going to affect our big dream. This is just the beggining

Although we didn't win today but we found a new inspiration to train even harder..seeing how other poly is performing makes us wanna do our team proud..i believe with jun wei guidance we will do it

Marcus,wei yi and yee keng and team NYP don't be demoralise..odds are against us..i know

with the perseverance we will do it together again! is not our strength that scare people..it is our big dream! When one door closes another door opens but we often look so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.

In some great attempts it is glorious even to fail.

the day has come

2008-11-28T05:34:00.000-08:00

TML WILL BE MOMENT OF TRUTH...THE DAY WE ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING. THE DAY WE WILL FINISH THE RACE WITH GLORY HONOUR AND PRIDE..THE DAY WHERE OUR DREAM COME TRUE.THE DAY OF ME AND MARCUS FIRST CANOEING RACE! THE PAST 6 MONTH OF HARD WORK AND SWEAT WILL BE PAID OFF! NYPKAYAKING YOSH!!

I MUST WIN

IVP HERE WE COME

There are times in life when you may feel pushed to the edge, on the brink of failure, and it seems your best option is to give up. Despite your pain and suffering, giving up is not the answer. "I believe meltdowns come right before the miracle, I believe breakdowns come right before the breakthrough, and I believe there is a dark moment that comes before the bright of dawn,"
-Nick simson

A lot of change and transformation in your life occurs not because someone else is different, not because their attitude got better, but because your attitude improved

lets cheer to obama victory

2008-11-05T07:04:00.000-08:00

Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance.

visonary evolution

2008-10-16T05:15:00.000-07:00

School has begun and this sem i must do well..no more distraction or complacency this sem..people who know me well enough will know that when i am really determine in something, i will definitely fulfill it be it by hook or by crook..everyday when i go school i go with tonnes of motivation now..i realised whatever i learn now make sense and will be helpful to me in the future ..Secondly canoeing make me wanna study even harder as a stable gpa will allow me to continue training with the team and if i have put enough effort and not hug Buddha leg in the very last minute then i will not be so stress up during exam period and still giving me time to train as form of relaxing myself during the exam....

IVP (pol-Ite) is coming real soon..me and my partner are still not there yet :( but i believe with our huge determination and dedication ,we will definitely make it there one day as here goes the saying every cloud has a silver lining and that good things will never ever come easy..but with determination impossible is nothing and nothing is impossible..Personally, i don't need anyone to tell me what i am capable of and what i am not...i will walk my way towards my goal and that's the difference between walking the walk and talking the talk...I AM DEFINITELY NOT GIVING UP..I WILL BE STRONG AND PRESSING ON EVEN STRONGER

stronger

2008-09-09T06:14:00.000-07:00

TRANINING IN PROGRESS
3RD WEEK AND ON GOING
I am just going to be stronger

2008-09-06T04:32:00.000-07:00

Today time trial is good at least is like a wakeup call for some of us and a little encouragement for those who have performed better..
simple formula
training frequency increase=timing improve as easy as that
for those who have perform well there is no time to be complacent lets aim higher this time a lot higher than what we could achieve
for those who did not perform exactly well here are some verese i hope it may help ! i believe it will!

In some attempts, it is glorious even to fail
Yesterday's failures are today's seeds That must be diligently planted to be able to abundantly harvestTomorrow's success.
Success is never ending: failure is never final
Lastly,Remember the two benefits of failure. First, if you do fail, you learn what doesn't work; and second, the failure gives you the opportunity to try a new approach.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you.

most importantly
No one can defeat us unless we first defeat ourselves

2008-09-04T20:31:00.000-07:00

Time Trial

2 weeks of intensive training have pass just hope our team..especially those who have beeen training with us to excel tml!

Gay partner lets do it once again!

dearest team

2008-09-02T06:01:00.000-07:00

TEAM junior!

this is dedicated for all of you ..when the going gets tough it is the tough get going..lets endure all this together ok!

When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill.
When funds are low and the debts are high. And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit. Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a failure turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out:
Don't give up though the pace seems slow - You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out - The silver tint of the clouds of doubt. And you never can tell how close you are. It may be near when it seems so far: So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit It's when things seem worst that you must not QUIT.

Michael phelps is the legend of the 21st century! what a amazing race he had shown to the world

Nelson Mandela

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond all measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"
Actually, who are you not to be?You are a child of God;
playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do and as we make our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same.As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically illuminates others.

my life is upside down i am totally in love with it

2008-08-09T22:29:00.001-07:00

First of all, I miss canoeing!!..it is like a week i have been down to water..eveytime when there is a training and i can feel a dagger poking in and out of the heart that is full of passion every minute ..i have to dedicate my time to studies as i know the time is always right to do what is right..and i cannot be wrong abt this verse..i just know i have to study hard now and maintain my fitness and after exam i shall proceed to the next level..i know is hard but i believe good things don't come easy..and i am ready for it!!..

In real love you want the other person’s good. In romantic love you want the other person

A part of you has grown in me, together forever we shall be, never apart, maybe in distance, but not in heart.

happy national day!

2008-07-20T08:06:00.000-07:00

Throughout sat and sun i spend most of my time at macritchie reservoir to support my team in the NCC ( National canoeing championship) i have seen how othersperform and the moment of time i felt that canoeing is not an easy sport to win after all..it has huge competitiveness among all participant..esp sssc(nationals) and nus which won most of the medal and i think it was also nus which crowned the overall champion..NYP was not bad too i would say most of my senior was able get into the finals and some even won silver..the definition of this silver is that if you got it you are that category Singapore no. second! haha..en kai was extremely good he won 4th but guess what the 1st 3 are from national..and he is only 1 sec behind them which is like so competitive la..every 0.00000000000001 sec counts man..you needs years just to be alittle bit faster like 3 sec? haha ya i have heard alot abt how jc,national and uni train..2 training a day one session in the morning and one after sch...you know what ? since i know it i am going to do the same!..i am going to bring medals back for NYP! i am going to plan my time wisely make sure there is a balance in my studies and canoeing!..every sea training i am going to use up all my energy..until i do not have the strength to carry my spoon and fork after sea session!..If you think i am crazy ?then you might go crazy after seeing how they train -.-..

I think i am really addicted to kayaking!..every now and then i would think of my strokes how is it that i am going to improve lol.. guess what again ? is nt just me the whole nyp team is also like that ! ..During sec sch i was lonely having to do most of the seasports myself or with kenneth and it seems like this is no longer going to happen anymore..i am so glad i have found you guys ..we are like clones in terms of mindset wahaha..
NYP KAYAKING! YOOOOOOSH! will done you just made me wanna kayak more than ever!

mixed feeling

2008-07-16T06:25:00.000-07:00

today did the econ project haha it was so fun we did the puppet thing!..

hais today one of me senior had been dismissed from the team!..he is very nice! we will definitely miss you birdy!..whatever it is..he will definitely be missed by all of us!

i think i and my class got closer and closer everyday..i suddenly feel that my class isnt that bad anyway is just that i have never learn to appreciate it hehe

2008-07-15T09:15:00.000-07:00

one strong dream,one strong vision, one strong team ,one strong bond,one strong champion

our team has shirnk drastically! i hope it would not shrink any further..However i know it is impossible..now that the training is 5 time a week ..both sat and sun is inclusive in the 5 days..and thurs have 2 session morning back-breaking rowing and evening monstrous land training.. nevertheless i am never going to give up that easily..when the going get tough,it is the tough that get going..beside we bond very well together ! i seriously love my teamate man..we speak a common language..we posses the same mindset.. and most imptly we have a common goal!..i so happy to see all my friend going really stronger! we will one day stop growing and that is when we lose our DREAM.. i canoot deny i grew quite a bit too haha..ya and today the protein powder finally got delivereed to my housse!! wahahah

"When a person trains once, nothing happens. When a person forces himself to do a thing a hundred or a thousand times, then he certainly has developed in more ways than physical. Is it raining? That doesn't matter. Am I tired? That doesn't matter, either. Then willpower will be no problem."
"To boast of a performance which I cannot beat is merely stupid vanity. And if I can beat it that means there is nothing special about it. What has passed is already finished with. What I find more interesting is what isstill to come."
Do not be afraid to let out the champion in you.Team, BRING OUT THE BEST IN YOU!

Quote from senior blog but i have find it damn meaningful la

kelvin is my name

2008-07-05T06:41:00.000-07:00

Hmm i think my joint is wearing off. I think is time to take supplement and not jog that vigorously..today was the fiercest sea training ever, I was the on verge of breaking down however i didn't gave up i just keep paddling for the 4h in sea and kept chasing the guy in front of me

Today i shall blog something different rather than just about my usual sea sports!
i think everyone deserve to be love..everybody in this world are longing for someone they love to fill up the empty part of their life..when there is something really unhappy and happy happening you can have someone to share the joy or sadness with you..but still is love relationship really a necessity in life? why do people kill them self over love? why is it that people are willing to sacrifice them self for love? this are the question i have been pondering over this few days..previous relationship was all just a game to me..i have never taken it seriously..
i never had a true taste of how true love can be..At this moment of time i think only friendship and family love are the only impt ones to me..the rest i shall just put it aside for the time being..

the clear sky that kept me moving while kayaking

is it really necessary?
