Dance like no one's watching

As of 5 Feb 2012, I will be officially “in between jobs”.  A pity I only get to bum around at home this week before I fly to USA for a 2-week holiday.  Will be back on 17 Feb & will start work at my next company on 20 Feb 2012. Many people have asked […]

Happy Chinese New Year everyone!! Enjoying my 3-week break before starting work at my new company. Had dinner with my new colleagues last week. I think it’ll be good. It’s a lean team but everyone is technically strong so i believe this team will rock the market. Two underwriters told me that they’re glad the […]

Ever heard the saying 钱不是万能，但没有钱却万万不能? In the past year, i have been approached by a few companies who felt that i may be able to contribute to their business. I considered joining a bank, insurer, reinsurer and brokers. Ultimately, it came down to a choice between taking up the position as head of department in […]

So the hot topic today is how our ministers’ salaries will be cut. I’m quite indifferent about it. After all, bringing down their salaries isn’t going to increase mine right?

Pre-emptive strike. That sums it up.

There’re many things i don’t understand. Why do people sit cross legged on chairs in foodcourt? Why do people slurp when they eat? Why can’t guys tell there’s gravy/ food all over their mouths/ chins? Why do girls with elephant legs wear miniskirts? Why do people walk on the road instead of the pavement? Why […]

最近不断的追看「步步惊心」。很精彩，非常好看。演员们都很帅，尤其是演八爷的郑嘉颖。看了剧情里居住在皇宫里的人，每天的日子真的是步步惊心。跟错主子随时会人头落地。想了想，现代人在事业里做出的每个决定，每个举动也跟古人差不远。一个错误的选择就可能是career suicide。选工作，一半的决定不离于选对老板啊！
