A little pressure is good




4 years ago on the stage with Vince , performing for the Prime Minister .

With Vince and Ash at a recent clubbing night .


I've been taking a hiatus for a little while . I know I'm not supposed to , but I needed a short break . Sorry for not picking up the calls during that time , phone was unconscious .

Obviously there's the horror story when I switched my phone back on .... Uuuuh . 127 text messages . I never thought it was possible ....

On another note , work has been absolutely great so far . I've so many new things to work on , and I'm actually typing this to take a break from writing a proposal . Need my creative juices to flow back in . Have been on the phone with calls from overseas since 2 am . It's 9am now !


Anyway , somebody said this to me recently ....

` David , a little pressure is good '

Weird Updates



I was a guest speaker at an integrated learning center .... I know , what did I speak on right ?


I'm about to crash my bed right now , however will update a little due to the fact that my little blog has been neglected due work . Since , I'm sleepy , I shall write my post in points .

*PETRONAS , believe you believe me , instead of asking me to work for them as an engineer , albeit a lousy one , have employed me for two of their events .

1)To speak at a Human Resource Management Stake holder's day , next year at KLCC . I'll be speaking for two hours on Human Resource to General Managers , CEOs and MDs . Once again , believe you , believe me , I have no idea why they employed me ( Yes , they are paying me to speak !! ) . It seems that I was recommended by a former Professor at university . When I got the details of what I was supposed to do , I was flabbergasted . WHAT ??? I replied back the e-mail they sent with the title ` Are YOU sure ? ' .

2)Petronas is flying me to a resort in Langkawi to perform for 800 Petrol Kiosk owners . In attendance will once again be Tun Dr.Mahathir . Due to the fact that Tun has seen my act a couple of times in the past , I will have to set out something new .... and Tun is a tough person to please , I was actually heckled by him on the stage in the past .........

The awkwardness of this , is that I was a former Petronas Scholar , and they sponsored my whole education to get an engineering degree ... and now , Petronas is using me for a purpose that does not relate to a single fragment of my academic qualification . Somebody explain to me why did I suffer so much throughout university again ??

If someone mentioned university , the only think I remember was the time I din't sleep for two days trying to finish an assignment for Reinforced Concrete ..... The only think I remember now is how to differentiate a one way and two way slab ....

*I agreed to a 52 episode show on national television . The first local `English' magic segment on national television ( which you might not catch since rarely do people watch TV these days ) . Shooting starts the point I get back home . You're gonna see my smiley face weekly on Friday TV starting Jan 2010 ( which I doubt you'll tune in too ) However ......... I neglected the fact that it's 52 episodes when I agreed . I'm now having a headache listing down the materials I should be doing . What have I gotten myself into ....

*I will not be in Malaysia much in 2010 ... that means I won't even get to see my own shows .

________________________________

All that being said . Things couldn't be better now . If you see past my dark humor , life for me now is going exceptionally well . I have a lot of things to look forward too , and am slowly crossing my `GOALs ' checklist as time goes by . That's a ` good' sign by the way .


In my life , I've miraculously written TWO books . 100 over pages , bad English , and very stupid substance . I completed the 1st one just after high school , and the 2nd one , a year back .
I kept both soft copies in an old e-mail account . I was reading them a few days ago just for the fun of it , and thought to myself
` Ok , both are really dumb , but at least the 2nd book is better than the 1st ... '



You gotta always move forward in life . Always improve on what you already have .
