Eventfull September

Just in a nick of time, we are in the last quarter of 2010. Recall back September is quite an eventful month for me. As usual I went back to KL this month. This time a shorter trip - 3 Weeks.

First Stop is to ODA Taman Negara Expedition. It is one of the most important trip in ODA calendar. Being a trip leader for this trip let me learn and grow a lot. This trip is different from other trip. Involves logistics, planning, bargaining, many participants and other stuff. Thanks to ODA Committees that help me a lot through out the process especially during the 3 days expedition time. Without you we would not make it a successful trip. A Big THANK YOU!!. ......This trip had been testing my EQ and mental fitness. Its not easy, but it is not an impossible task. I am happy that Hock Lye, Yityin, Yinqiu, my sister ,elvin and also Siew Kee came with me to this trip.

The next event is CIC Final Sprint. It stands for Creative International Consultancy. Went there with my boss. I attended the Officers Section. Learned some agency management and system. Really makes clear what we need to improve and what we still lack of. So after a few years in this industry, sometimes we think the talks that we usually attend are the same, but from each different event if we put our heart and listen well we will get something from it. Glad that i have the chance to attend this course. Besides technical part, i get to know Brandon and his brother. They started their career in a not so smooth way, but up until now they have some achievement. From them i saw their undying spirit to learn and improve in everything they do. With this we can overcome anything in this world. Because 世上唯一不变的真理是,世界都在不断的变。

Next up is Lausi's Lunar Birthday Party and Mooncake celebration. Last year not able to attend the celebration at CEO’s house with Fatlou Lut Lut, this year I finally meet the Fatlou lut lut at CEO' house. Apparently the boss driving the lutlut is not as fat as the name of the brand haha. We have a nice and full dinner. From the Fatlou lut lut guy, i've learned that everyday the car they will have to drive the lorry back to the HQ which is near Selayang there..then they will back home. Next day reach HQ around noon, change car and head to their locations. Till midnight, change location to nearby pub until 2-3am..then drive the lorry back to HQ. The fatlou lut lut lorry that appears in Seremban will have to drive back to HQ everyday. Really is an eye opener for me...

After that the next event is attending Great Leo Award. Its an award for first 2 years agent (that means new agent). I am grateful that I made it this year too. I realize more and more youngsters doing better and better and start their career as young as 19 years old!!!. I still wondering what am I doing when I was 19. (STPM, Girlfriend, School Activities, Tuition) It kind of give me a slap in the face, wake up!! You are not young anymore....haha... And makes me think, what am I doing now?? One thing i learn up there is - Every achievement we make is not to only celebrate our pass success, it is also a benchmark for future excellence.今天的成就不是专注在我们过去作得多好,而是成为未来迈向德标杆。Lastly is SG Final Sprint.It an annual event, it is a recharge and learn platform. Besides that , we celebrated moon-cake festival with colleagues and buddies at Teck Hong house...


As usual, this trip back going back to my house to meet mom and sister..this time able to eat mom's cookied coconut chicken!!! The taste of the coconut and the sweetness of the chicken is just so good.....attached picture are the coconut opened by me...here is no place better than home. I have a deep feeling for the song sang by Westlife. Enjoy!!
