Life Path


Your life path number is 9
Life Path 9 (9, 18/9, 27/9, 36/9)

The Life Path 9 suggests that you entered this plane with an abundance of dramatic feelings coupled with a strong sense of compassion and generosity. The key to the nature of a Life Path number 9 person is found in their humanitarian attitude. Even the very average of those with life path 9 possess extremely compassionate tendencies.

Usually this number produces an individual that is very trustworthy and honorable, and one unlikely to harbor any sort of prejudice. Obviously, this is a rather tall order, but you are, in fact, a person that feels very deeply for individuals less fortunate than yourself, and if you are in a position to help, you certainly will. The 9, being the highest of the single digit numbers, holds an elevated position in terms of responsibilities to mankind.

Material gains are not overly important, although the quality of some life path 9 people is such that they are materially rewarded in very significant ways. In this, however, the 9 Life Path is not apt to get rich since they are very generous, sometimes to a fault, and usually have an easy come, easy go attitude about money. The rare 9 life path has a totally selfless attitude, giving up of material possessions for the common good.

The 9 Life Path indicates you have a commanding presence. You have the ability to make friends very easily, as people are attracted to your magnetic, open personality. The term "hail-fellow" may have been coined to describe a 9 Life Path, as you may indeed be one of those who is generally upbeat and heartily friendly and congenial. You meet people easily and are quickly befriended because of your openness and amiable demeanor. Your genial ways often put you in the lead in whatever field of endeavor you pursue.

Relationships can be difficult for you because it is hard to strike a balance that will work effectively. If your partner is one sharing your giving attitudes, the relationship will be happy and lasting. On the other hand, if you choose a partner whose focus is on material issues, problems will arise quickly.
You tend to be quite sensitive, as you see the world with much feeling. The number 9's very deep understanding of life is sometimes manifested in the artistic and literary fields. If drama and acting is not your forte, it will surely be an area of great interest and potential. Likewise, you may be able to express your deep emotional feelings through painting, writing, music, or other art forms.
The purpose of life for those with a 9 life path is often of a philosophical nature. Judges, spiritual leaders, healers and educators frequently have much 9 energy. The number is less inclined to the competitive business environment and may find this a struggle.

As do all the life path numbers, the 9 has its negative side. Because of the demanding nature of the truly positive 9, many tend to fail in this category. It is not uncommon for persons with the 9 life path to fight the realities and challenges of purpose imposed here because selflessness is not an easy trait. You may have difficulty believing that giving and a lack of personal ambition can be satisfying. It must be realized and accepted that little long-term satisfaction and happiness is to be gained by rejecting the natural humanitarian inclinations of this path.

So far, So good..

Being in my new job for almost 2 monthsle.

1st month in London was alright..
meaning, uneventfukl, just liek everyday work.
Wake up , go to work, knock off, dinner, sleep...

felt the real "Impact" only when work starts in teh S'pore Office and takes on teh lOndon shift...

Coming in to work in the late noon feels good..
gets to run more errands, sleep longer hours everyday!

But the fact of "burning midnight oil" is really detrimental to the health...

So must stock up on Manuka Honey, probably Bird's nest , work out more often, and maybe considering pampering oneself with appointments to facial sp aand increase diet of anti-oxidant products?

Cos it sounds kinda scary how keeping late nights can speed up the ageing effect!!!!!
oh no, does that mean it's tiem to hit the Robinson and Metro to shop for Bio-therm? Neugeno? Origins? Nivea? Zeith?
No wonder they pay us allowances for shift work....

Well, above all, still like my job so far... working hours are reasonable, an believed will get better... heheh

Food served in Pub: their pub opens in the early noon, and yes, lotsa people drink at that time..
and the most common eateries u can find on London street are pubs, and almost all served decent food!
this is a person serving of Lasgne, and its suppose to be a cheap GBP4.65, as its on their "daily special menu"

离开了。。。

Finally after 2 years, I have left my first job since i graduated.

Have been desperately trying for a job switched since 6months back, and now finally the day has come...

Mixed feelings on the last day today as i bid my final farewell to my colleagues.
I thought it would be easy to leave, but the feelings were kinda 沉重.

All the colleagues and friends who have being showering great concern on me thru'out my stay.
All the sincere well-wishes on this last day.
Its really sad to leave them.
At that moment, i wished i could return to this familar place again the next day, and see all these familar and friendly faces again.... ='(

Come to think of it, i find myself fortunate to meet all these frens and colleagues.
no schemings, no obvious politics, showing so much care, concern and support.

Gonna missed them all.....

SPIKE


The Fundamentals of Volleyball.

It was a great experience after years of break from serious competitive volleyball.
Although we came in fourth, it was nevertheless a great fight.
Am looking forward to more of such competitions in future after having establishing a "network" of volleyball teams.

That means, its also time for us to train seriously, train like the pros... haha... but where to find an experience coach?? hmmmm.....

Gearing up for upcoming beach vball competition in 2 weeks time.. must train hard and give my best ! in fact, there's gonna be a total of 3 different beach vball competitions coming up over the next 1 month! COOOOOOOL!!!!

D.S.S. (part one)

Feeling: Jubilee

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting


A.k.a. Dig, Set, Spike

It was a great game.
One that I have not experienced for years...

the Jubilation of triumph over an organised team,(2-1) and to sweat it all out with dives and saves against the more experienced and skillful opponents (0-2), which ironically happens to be the team whom i started out learning vball with!

I have nvr run that hard, til i can "hear"my legs muscle tellng me "slow down my fren...."

next week, we will be back, better i'm sure.
we may be small in size, no fanciful patterns, but we pack power!!
hehe..!

Well, it good in a way...
Lousy days will pass by in a blink of an eye.

"... time will always heal the pain
bring the sun and dry the rain..."

...you told me time is always on my side
to turn the season, change the tide
things work out with time if you want them to..."

Looking back, i have accomplished NOTHING for the past 6 months..
yup.. nothing...
Life so wasted....

I hope the next six months onwards, life will be enriching, fulfilling, and most importantly, bring a smile to me everyday....

In the mood for.....

断点
".....我吻过你的脸
虽然你不在我的身边
我还是祝福你过的好一点
断开的感情线,
我不要做断点
只想在睡前再听见你的蜜语甜言 ...."

原点
".... 离开的时候
只听见沉默
除了沉默
我还能怎么做选择
别对我抱歉
别总觉得对我亏欠...."

远远在一起
"....还是爱着你
只是我们之间有了距离
远远爱着你
就算不能够再靠近
同样的天空下总会有你
...."

简简单单
".....只想简简单单的爱过
我还是我
简简单单的想过
就不算白活
简简单单的疯过
被梦带走
当故事结束之后
心也喜欢一个人寂寞
...."

Cry it Out?

Feeling:
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
The Truth Always Hurts.

I choose to be shielded from the truth.
Keep it away from me. I will feel better.

Tell ourself to be strong.
But behind that brave front, how does one sees the shattered pieces inside.
who's there to piece them up.
Just when it beings to heal, it shattered again....

Are we trying so hard to hide our emotions, such that we have forgotten how to shed those tears?

I wished those tears could roll.
Maybe i will feel better.
But they refused...
Have they dried up?
Or am i already devoured of emotions.....

Laugh it out..?

May 11
FeelingPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Four months after my company's buyover a rival company, today's teh retrenchment "exercise" as circulated in an email memo by our HRD.

While, news of the retrenchment already started spreading week sbeofre..
Can't believe that i will be going thru a "BIG OVERSEAS" company retrenchment exercise on my first job since graduation.

Is that gonna be some big Hoo-haa about it??
Afterall, how many people get to be in a company where retrenchment exercise takes place? especially when now its not during the down-turn of our "oh-so-robust" economy, where wage increments are even in plans by the NWC....

Many peopoel wished they would be the one retrenched. as some of my auntie-colleagues put it on the eve of retrenchment...
"Hope i Kena TOTO tmrw"
wait a minute... thrus got TOTO meh??
they were referring to retrenchment letter.
i.e. for those who worked for donkey years, imagine they are paid 1.5 of their monthly drawn income for every year of service they held with the "Company"!
lets do some maths here...

lets say u worked for 10 yrs, which "surprisingly" was quite common among most staffs there,
and ur gross pay is say avg 1.5k (lets just take clerical staff only...)
so if u kena the letter,
Your TOTO price will be 1.5 X 10 X 1.5 = 22,5oo.00 (Twenty Two Thousand OVER)!

Isnt that the same as striking TOTO???
Imagine you are on the executive position...
or even managerial level?? Its like strikin gthe ANG BAO TOTO??!!!!

when people were slowly called up to HRD in the morning, many senior staffs "strike" the TOTO... One was my former boss, which was rather sad for some of us, though we would kinda expect it...he's being with teh bank for over 20 years, and worked his way up... brught about note-worthy changes to his previous dept...

Well, it was not a teary event, just some surprises and well-wishing... infact, it wasnt a really major retrenchment... politically correct grammar to us woule be a "stramlining" of operations staffing.

My current Dept wasn't affected at all, Since they were already very short-handed (the reason for me being transferred ) and in Chaos since Day 1 of the merger.

Sigh...
Though now i can really understand what the importance of "Job security" holds in our textbooks back during those schooling days...

I missed School...
I missed the the life as an under-grad....

I issed those times...
Missed those communal hall-living...
If I could asked genie to turn back time, it would be the year June 2001 - June 2004

Crush-ed

Crushed....
Totally Crushed...
Feeling: Crush-edPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Career Sucks, Life Sucks, Love sucks...
Why don't we just go and die.........

2006 is a bad year.. no, its a horrid, horrid year.
I have a feeling its only the begining of a perennial sufferings..
Everything's gonna go down-hill from here...

What with the prospect.
Forget about loyalty.
Don't talk about committment.
There's no one else u can trust. (The only ones are ur family ONLY)
People are hypocrites by nature.
human are superficial.
