Simple yet nice

Recently I build up an interest for this so called living with style culture. It happened after I came across a few products from QUALY. A tiny bits of add-ons to a certain thing or subject in your house can changed the way it looks and feesl dramatically. When you are holding a house party or having friends over at your place, I'm quite sure QUALY's products will get your guest saying "Awwww.. that's nice."

Here you go... QUALY calls this the Hummingbird's Party.

I'm not sure about others but personally I find it interesting. With a bird on your whisky glass, it just looks so different. Come on... you won't have the chance to see a bird clinging on your glass. So appreciate the idea behind this product. As far as I know QUALY is a local company here in Bangkok who uses their creative ideas and turned them in to a lifestyle products. Now they are getting more and more well known in the European countries.

Getting it right

I'm not a pessimistic person but the recent loads from work has drove my emotion on a thousand miles highway drive. I didn't slept well for the past 3 days already and obviously I look like a dead walking panda trying to act high on drugs roaming in my office block. Not whining here, not a chance. I never whine due to work loads that causes stress or trauma but this time I choose to express a little because I can't find myself thinking rationally about the dealing process, the purchasing issues and how I should reply all the emails. I muted everything within my hearing range. A slightest sound from my phone or voice from my staff can left my brain partially out of focus when I'm working at this very moment.

I put down my pen, pushed away all the papers with all sorts of digit and alphabets, close my outlook and blog this on my working desk right now. Yes it is a fantstic brand new year and busy seems to be a good thing that shows your business is running perfectly well. But on the other hand when you cannot satisfy or unable to commit to all your customers, disaster falls in instantly. Too much is not always a good thing and too good to be true, you are getting frustrated someway somehow.

Ermm... just so you know I'm not looking at this situation as a dooms day. It is just a sudden emotional change for a few graceful minutes making me wanna put my work aside. Before this I was on a few airlines website checking out where I should hide myself in a foreign country. What I've learned in my working career is, it is always good to vanished yourself sometimes when you have to think about work constantly under all sorts of circumstances. When you are away from your office there is this moment that you seems to forget everything when calls and emails cannot get you. It's like off-lights dancing. And you wouldn't have to care about what's happening back in the warzone because there is nothing you could do when you're not around. Well... this is not an avoidance or whatsover, I just tend to be more centralized and effective after I placed the messy bits properly in the right compartment of my brain. This is just my phylosophy anyway.

Enough talking, I have to go to the airport in a short while to pick up my Canadian client and this is not the end. For the next two days I will have to see some people from Hong Kong before I can get onboard a flight heading for Singapore and leave everything behind for a while. These meetings will definately bring a standstill to what I have on hand that need to be done before I fly home. But it's okay... I'm going to finish it anyway. I found myself having this alter ego lately.

Hunger for affection..

Nice concept but not necessary.

Catch up

Another catch up dinner with an old friend in January here in Bangkok city. Sam was in Bangkok for an overnight stop after a flight from New Delhi. We went to one of my regular Thai restaurant where the food seldom failed anyone, unless they have taste buds disorder. As usual in the midst of the dinner there is lots of updates about life, work and relationship. It's been two years since the last time I we met and nevertheless we are still the same ol' us.

我沉默妳的話也不多..我們之間少了什麼 不說? 刮风这天 我试过握着你手但偏偏..风渐渐把距离吹得好远.就是那麼簡單幾句我辦不到.妳對我有多重要 我後悔沒讓妳知道. 我一定會呵護著妳也逗妳笑...這些我都做得到. 為什么這樣子? 我拉不住你,你看著我說你已經決定. 想回到过去试著让故事继续.就是開不了口讓我感動的可愛女人知道.

The Start

Today I woke up to the constant beep of my Blackberry, It was the beeping sound of the email notification. Without a further glance at the phone of what I might get today on the emails, I put myself to ready and prepare to drive off to work. To my suprise I found a pack of cookie hanging on my door and it was from my neighbour.


2011 started pretty much with a tense. At the begining It was a brand new year and everyone is going all excited over this with parties and wishes flying over the internet and cell phones. Until today I went out twice at night because of Isaac and Bill. Seriously, if not because of them I would rather be somewhere else. Night life doesn't excite me that much anymore. But with some friends from overseas, it's exceptional. The companion makes everything better.


Then I had an awful experience having lunch at Erawan on the first day on New Year. I would really like to write: "Dear customer service... I hope you know I'm writing this with my middle finger."

So after my first meeting on the very first week of January and closed the very first deal, today my Outlook sky rocketed to 46 new emails and a dozen of documents to be reviewed. I refuse to believe, this has never happened before and I sense a pinch of busyness for the rest of the year for at least 6 to 8 months. Right now all I'm looking forward to is to go home for the Chinese New Year holidays. Can't wait to be with the person I want to be and see the person I want to see.
