Mervyn Hoe: My Daily Happenings

I want to thank God for letting me to embark on business opportunity once again. It is my three day roadshow at Suntec. (last week) I would call it sheer luck or hard work because I managed to have three walk ins for this road show!! Wow and they are ready buyers! Ha. And from this roadshow, it made me to have a volume to $20000. This is really thanking god! Also, want to thank my mum and my mother in law for helping us to take good care of Josh during the three days because I'm not around at home and that made them work longer at home. Find that in life, we must hedge onto opportunities and if they are knocking at your door, grab it! Because you never know whether next time, there will be another round of this opportunity laid down for you once again. I'm also very happy that this year, I am able to pen down my thoughts in a book as a Senior Financial consultant and to keep it as a memoir for myself! Yeah! Can't wait for it to be published and given to my clients!

Hi! I am very thankful that my mother in law and Eve takes good care of Josh when I'm doing IT fair. And that all of us have to work till 9pm. Ah! And really push me to work even harder during roadshow. Yesterday, I went back home and thankful Eve bought for my supper and also in cooked for her jn return, I cooked for her fried egg with mushroom. Ha. I miss home cooked food too. Ha. We made baked seafood rice two days back and this together effort is paid off!! See the result.. This is seafood with morserellla cheese and it is put in the oven. But the rice not so Q. Prob should make the rice drier. Must Jiayou today!!

Happy! Well on 15th Dec, it's my mum birthday and we ate lunch at home. And they all enjoyed it as we baked salmon and the small Japanese fishes. Then for the dinner, suppose to eat at the dinner place that my golden rooster has eaten at 134 Telok Ayer street. But happened that day they didn't open that day. We went to another teochew restaurant that is quite not worth it :( Ate roast pig and everything totaled up to $400+. Cant believe it because it's quite salty and oily. And every person averaged out o be $70! Mind as well go to THE LINE to have seafood buffet! Ah...

Well yesterday, went to my collegues' wedding lunch and it is very well done! Really love the cartoon video movie that amazed me because it really portrayed how they met and how things worked out for them in summary. Quite touching and that made me to think if it will be good to have me and Eve's one done in a movie clip and can be kept. Then next time when my children wants to know, or even my grandchildren, they will get to know. Isn't that cool? Also, for my friend, he even pain stakingly played piano! That is the stunner and even his wife was moved to tears!! Wow... Josh was there too and I am very happy that he sat on the baby chair because frankly, he doesn't like to sit on it. Ha. And that made the feeding easier and we are also much lighter on our side! Ha...

Hi Everyone Yesterday is a great day for socializing because coincidentally, it is a day for material science and for my community service club friends. I heard from my friend Viknesh that for my material science outing, my fellow friends took leave for the afternoon amazing race planned by Shufen. I am really amazed and I told myself that I must go for it! Seriously, I have never heard that of a group of people taking leave for gathering! A wedding event,yes. But friends outing, wow! I went and met them and then they were waiting for me at the food republic at wisma. They straight away kicked off the event the moment I reached!! My team has Kelvin, Wengsoon, Zhihong and I. And Shufen is really very clever as she posted the pictures on facebook so that we can log on to see. The aim is to find the exact pictures and take with ourselves inside!! It is challenging because we have no idea where are the displays but the clue is that they are all in sequence.. Thank god we manage to find ...

Hey everyone!! I am really very excited and awaiting for very good news in my work. I am looking forward to this year's bonus!! Ha.. And have never gotten that amount before.. Ha. And yes, this year is the year that enables me to achieve results better than the years before!! I am really thankful that Eve actually brought me into this career of mine and that I enjoy what I do, and most importantly, we are able to plan time everyday for our usage too. Now, I'm reading on parenting books that can increase my knowledge towards parenting because now, Josh is growing very fast and discipline him at times is required. And really thankful that Eve now still breastfeeds him, giving him the better milk and also thank my mother in law who takes good care of Josh everyday, except Sunday! Update you good news on saturday evening!!!! Some pictures of us at the park. And he really loves nature, just like his parents!! And we played with the small stones and fallen leaves...:)

Well on Saturday, I went for my IPPT test because it is due before my birthday. Still can remember that last year this time, I also took my test at Khatib camp. This time is better, chose 4pm slot and I'm amazed that there are so many people there. Here are my results Pull up: 11 Sit up: 36 Standing broad jump:221cm Shuttle run:10.0sec 2.4km rum:12min10sec My my!! My static stations are silver and I just need to hit my running before 12 mins I will get a silver for my physical fitness test!! I am shocked actually when my timing was 12min10sec!! Coz on my fifth round, my timing was 9min59sec. Because towards the last round, I had a stitch and didn't expect I took more than 2mins for my last round.. Making me to have a result of Bronze. Ah!! That goes my $200... I only have $100 for this test... Ha. But thank god that I passed because my fear station is actually the standing broad jump.. Was thankful that with my height, I can jump to 221cm!! Last year, I can still remember that ...

Well all of us have to keep finding ways to stay positive and one of the ways is with the support of family members. It's true that we should put our family first then our selves second then work. Support from family members work both ways and it's good to initiate first. Then it is then reciprocated. And when other members felt it, they feel happy and the spirit of happiness spreads. Do you know that children are most sensitive towards the feelings of their parents? So gotta keep making yourself feel positive!! And they in turn will be. Now we are slowly introducing toothbrush to Josh because he has more and more teeth growing out from his gums! And oral hygiene has to be met!! Ha.. Sometimes at night, Josh and us will actually go to our nearby Dome to chill!! Of course not too late, till about 1045pm. Yesterday he is a so happy. And he loves to be a postman too, taking postcards from the Dome entrance and pass it to mum. Ha! We all love him...

I am really confused. This week Cellgroup it really makes me feel immature to even be in a church and that I feel I got judged by what I didn't do, and not commented that what I have done. I know that it is good to attend church, as you can feel God. But in Cellgroup, somehow I don't. I am really shocked and disappointed to be typing this post now because all along, I do not feel this way. Maybe I have, but I do not really care much? Church has really blessed me a lot. Really. But when come to relationship building, that made me want to think about it, that is it worth it? Are we friends or that administrative work really covers the friendship? Come to think of it, I have a few good friends, and many are very good ONLY in times together. And when we moved on, no more. Example I have a few good secondary school friends and army friends. But when we left secondary and army units respectively, somehow we lost contact or don't even bother to carry on... This is really very true...

I really wonder what happen to most of the y2k singers in the music scene. Because when I searched the Internet, there used to be alot of great music from year 2000 to 2004.. One example is Kavana. He has great voice and his songs like 'MFEO' and 'Special kind o something' is so wow! And really wonder what happened to him. His music contract ended in 2000. And he never continue... Find that they should have a come back and pop groups like '911', Backstreet boys and Spice Girls should have a come back!!!! My my..
