Energy

Posted January 5th @ 8:28 am by adino

I don’t know if any of you notice this about yourselves.
When you were a child, you virtually have unlimited energy. I watch my daughter Rachel and her cousins. They can play all day without feeling tired.
I think back to my childhood. Each morning I couldn’t wait to start playing, and I didn’t stop even when [...]

Wardrobe Malfunction

Posted December 2nd @ 8:28 pm by adino

A hilarious thing happened to me today.
Well, it wasn’t exactly funny from my point of view. It was quite sweaty and panicky really. But I guess I can laugh now that it’s all over.
At 12pm, I had to go to the toilet. Suddenly, the zip on my office trousers split apart.
It was horrifying.
There was this [...]

Cancer

Posted October 6th @ 8:28 am by Adino

The dreaded ‘C’ word. I don’t mind the other ‘C’s in life (cash, condo, car, etc…) but hearing about cancer is terrifying.
Poey Chin’s father has been diagnosed with lung cancer.
Poey Chin is really sad and depressed. I feel worried and helpless. How do we handle this?
We have consulted with specialists both in Ipoh and in [...]

Feeling Down

Posted May 25th @ 8:28 am by Adino

I’m feeling very down.
At work, there’s so much to do and so little time to do it. My computer Izzie is giving me problems. My development tools refuse to work due to a hibernate config error. I’ve been trying for days to get it started. My deadline is coming, all too quickly.
At home everyone is [...]

Confession

Posted February 13th @ 8:28 am by Adino

I want to dedicate this post to one special reader of mine.
She does not comment much, so most of you have not interacted with her. But she reads each post, and gives me special comments for every post I write.
Our communication is not open to public. Many times we exchange secret messages on MSN or [...]

A Reason To Celebrate

Posted January 20th @ 8:28 am by Adino

Finally, some good news for the new year.
I’m not talking about the results of the by-election, but I’ve got some good news from work.
The management was kind enough to declare a two month bonus for everybody, and depending on your performance review scores you would get a factor of that amount.
I’m really happy that the [...]

Help, I’m Drowning

Posted November 24th @ 8:28 am by Adino

I forget if I have mentioned this before. About a month ago I took on additional responsibilities at my job because someone left the company and there was an urgent vacancy to fill.
I was nominated for the position due to my experience and seniority I guess. After some thought I decided that it would be [...]

Dealing With Haters

Posted November 20th @ 8:28 am by Adino

Today I want to share on something that has been bothering me on and off again for the past few months.
There are just some around me who have hated me so much that they refuse to talk to me or even acknowledge me. There are those who will give me the evil eye or even [...]

What Truly Matters?

Posted October 15th @ 8:28 am by Adino

Today I woke up wondering where my life is heading.
Where am I going with my career?
What is my career anyway? Is it just going day to day, solving problems? Will all the ‘objectives’ and targets we are trying so hard to meet even matter at all in 1 year’s time? In 6 months time?
What will [...]

Lost? The Answers

Posted October 14th @ 8:28 am by Adino

Thank you all for attempting or finishing the test!
Congrats to Leon and my wife for getting most of the answers correct, though it doesn’t really matter how many you got right. Most of the answers were pretty weird (and lame) anyway.
I’m sure you’ve learned some things about me. Hopefully you had a laugh or two.
Today [...]
