Management On Another Level

If you’ve been working long enough in 1 company, they’d decide to promote employees to a more management level. It’s to oversee others and report directly to the boss – normally.

In my case, I’m my own boss at Simpleet Solutions. But this is why I’m in management on a whole other level. Not because I answer to myself, mind you.

I look weird in suits...

Photography was done by a professional friend; Jackie Chan. Seriously, that’s his name. You can find out more about his photography work at his website.

But I’m not talking about corporate management here. I’d like to talk about management of things in life I’m very passionate about. One of them is mainly blogging.

Since 2010 started, I’ve now found myself managing 3 personal blogs. None of which I’d say is seriously considered business oriented. Sure there are ads on 2 of them, but it ain’t big money. For me, at least.

The 1 blog I’m finding it a little challenging to manage daily is the photography blog. I wanted to do Project 365 because not only it’s a good way to constantly update my blog but because it makes sure my DSLR isn’t left to collect dust.

But because it requires me to take a photo a day, sometimes it slips my mind or I end up procrastinating until the next day. Not healthy, from a management’s perspective.

Then again, like Vernon has told me, “it’s a good problem”. 🙂

Uncle, Please Stop Sneezing On My Oranges

Me and Ariel were at Giant Kelana Jaya shopping for tonight’s BBQ. It was packed as usual being a weekend, plus Chinese New Year is nearing. Families were stocking up on the booze, instant coffee, mandarin oranges, diapers (yes, we saw some with like 4-5 bags) and other necessities.

One of the items on our shopping list was to buy fruits for a special dessert I’ve ordered from one of Simpleet’s website design clients. It’s going to be a surprise for the attendees and a lost for the absentees. 😛 Because this dessert isn’t officially being sold in Malaysia yet.

While I was selecting some of the smaller sized oranges, I noticed other shoppers picking them too. Then, this uncle on the other side let out sneezes (wife beside him).

My God, he didn’t even bother covering his nose! By the way, just because you don’t sneeze with a loud “ah choo” mouth wide doesn’t mean it’s okay to sneeze openly. Ew.

I was really pissed off to find this mature uncle pausing his picking to sneeze like that! TWICE! In my mind, I straight away thought “goodness, it’s going all over the oranges! f*ck!” He was contaminating the fruits right beneath him and God knows where else the sneeze flew.

And to make it even more disgusting, his nose had a long streak which leaked out and fell on his shirt. Eeeeeewwwwww.

Seriously, if you go grocery shopping with anyone who does this, they make us look like we still live in trees!

Are Smoking Women Sexy?

Let’s say you’re sitting down having lunch. Then when you lift your head, gulping your food, you see an attractive lady across you.

As you’re about to think “that’s one hot lady”, she then pulls out a familiar white stick. Lights it up and puffs a smoke.

Now, is it because of the good boy likes bad girl theory which is attractive. Or, for some weird reason, women who smoke seem to appear more sexy.

Also, it may not be the lips which are attractive. Because imagine you’re unable to look at her face. Only her posture and with the cigarette in hand with a line of smoke coming from the lighted bud of the white stick.

Erm, please take your hands out from your pants and stop fapping while you read! It ain’t healthy! For the keyboard, and others who accidentally used your computer. Oops!

So, why are women who smoke sexy?

I Lub Nuffnang

Despite being a new blog, I’m still happy to know I’ve the support of my close friends who read even my personal blog. And to not miss out on the many opportunities this year, I’m prepared to take the next step for this blog already.

Nuffnang, I lub you!

I’ve been a keen supporter of Nuffnang for awhile now. I wouldn’t say I started with them ever since I was blogging but when Advertlets came out, I never had a doubt of becoming Nuffie.

Because Nuffies are cool!

Which other company do you know actually can tell the whole team to karaoke in the middle of the day! 😛

I am not working for them la!

My business partner at Simpleet would kill me if he found this out. LOL! But yes, it’s not that I’m working for Nuffnang. What I wanted to say was in continuous support of them, I’m only putting Nuffnang ads here.

So, do you lub Nuffnang too? 😉

I Feel Like The Man

I feel really really REALLY good right now. I’ve no idea why but I feel like my blood is pumping a natural flow of adrenaline without the heart raising beat. It feels like I can accomplish all my tasks now, which I have.

It’s like I’ve absorbed a positive slew of energy and it’s constantly flowing out of me as I’m doing anything. When I try to grasp this feeling, there’s only 1 icon which comes to mind.

It just feels so good to be so positive. Now, if I can only digitize and store all this energy into a device which I can retrieve back again.

Ideas anyone? And please, I don’t have Kenny Sia’s USB.
