PAINTBALL!!!!!

Wooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! Went for paint ball last Saturday and it was painfully awesome! We played among our colleagues from work and it was a really nice place, everything took place in some sort of jungle. But we wern't allowed to take pictures in the battlefield so here's only the shots outside the zone.

Team A!! My team! I already had paint on my shirt....

Team B..... sigh, wanna guess who won?

Okay.... we played for like 4 and a half hours and after 6 huge boxes of paint balls.... man.... tired gile. and it was pain left and righ ok.

after the games

man.... all beaten up.

We got most of the shots on the face thanks to the bright yellow mask we had, which perfectly really help not blending us with the seroundings. Was very very fun la... i wanna go again. and i shot alot of ppl's backside when they turn and run... cause i can't really see well, so thats the bigest thing i see on them... so shoot la... what the heck.

Objective driven

Well.... good morning!! Again, blogging in office on a dreary Thrusday morning. Actually... I'm feeling pretty awake (bout 5.55am now) after what happen this morning. A storm/tonado (whatever, news stations are all still down so i cant tell) swap over my area this morning, seeing trees and debris all over on the ground.




Now back to the objective at hand, I'm pretty much an objective driven guy. My point is, if there's no purpose, there's no meaning. So everything should be planned towards an objective. I had created a formula for myself to follow and it works pretty well, I had it going on since last yr: everyday, i'll spend a couple of minutes thinking of at lease 2 big things to get done by the end of the day. And the day's success depends on the completion of the objectives. It can be stuff like making a point to catch up with an old friend, finish a report, organise a movie night, pick up golf.... 2 things a day wont take too much efford and in a week will be 14 things, and a month will be 60. 60 things get done in a month!! It did work for me, well SOME ppl should start trying doing something... if you bother to read this anyway.

On a higher note, a few couple of things happend this pass week did re-iterate the importance of life's meaning and being objective driven. I found out that life is too short, shorter for some. In the end, all that matters is how you live it when you account for it to God.

PS: i now this post sounds so BBC Business channel but thats all i wanna emphasize for the moment. more fun post to come. I feel like blogging in Malay.... nyehehehe

Laundry day.... mega!

I never like ironing clothes... its tedious, tiring and boring. And to top things up, i dont really know how to iron. Its just.... sien.... especially when i got a pile this much:

HAh.... instead of getting started, i'm blogging bout it. But I've found my joy in ironing. I'll get up at 2am, get a coke, and iron in the dead of night. Sleepy, so quiet.... serene.... and my head still stoned. Thats my ironing moments. I'll do that later then i guess.

It just reflects on how much stuff in my life i have to iron out, and get it straight. Alot..... A little at a time and i'm trying to find the joy in it. Getting things straight can be joyful. Especially when i got a load of new fresh clothes. agree?

Morning call

Some things just cant be given up so easily. Its like being disenchanted from a spell but falls back nostalgically to its drawbacks. I cannot find a better way to explain how I feel now. There's so many mix feelings from the chain of events thats been taking place.

Maybe i need a quick holiday.

I'm sitting here and thinking why bother to describe my mood swing here. Then it got me thinking of the reason of blogging again. Wait, what am I saying? Its all coming back now. I just woke up and I'll feel perfectly normal in a couple of hours time. For a moment I felt like deleting the entire paragraph on top but it seems to me that i'll waste my early morning time spend here. Maybe its how I deal with changes.

People dont like changes. But thoses how brace it will succeed, those who shunt it will be just the same alwasy - the pathetic boring same. Hmm..... morning thoughts from Ben.

Ok... feeling much better now! thanks bloggie!

I'm off to golf.

fresh from the office




Ah well well.... what a wonderful office senario that should just stick this way and i just felt like droping a post here: unproductivity and office lost time.



See the picture.... its my desk. yup yup. blogging while working.... and oh, on msn somemore. tsk tsk.



Haa.... my point is,

1. it was really warzone this morning with work loads coming in and i think the whole production wont crash if i just took off 15 minutes. I will only resort to this if i was overworked.


2. you think i'm an office bum? ok, i get at lease 2 prank calls a day, 3 prank emails and ppl coming to me just to laugh at my jokes. all from my colleagues. you see, they spend so much more time planning pranks on me than working. someone even use my pc when i'm not around to send "i like you" emails to my boss.


3. my theory is: if u take good and long breaks, u'll fell guilty. when u feel guilty, you'll do more work. taa daa.... genious.


work harder?
