The Importance of Viewership

Importance of Viewership
IF nobody comes to visit ur blog to read about ur life, would u still want to blog. Does it decrease ur motivation to blog? No doubt, people blog for many different reasons. Perhaps, they use blogs as a way to store their information and make retrieval easier. Perhaps it is a way to connect with their friends and share their life story or it can be a form of distress, a way to connect to one's most inner tots and feelings but writing it out. So where does the important of viewership comes from?

Viewership
Yet, i have been keeping track on the viewership of people who read what i write. For e.g. i have to write an economic forecast of the world market every single morning. And every day, i would spend some time to check what is the viewership details for that day. In a way, i think it does serves as an external motivation for me to write. However, like what R***** share with me on sat, E*****'s wedding dinner, we should check ourself and see whether whatever we are doing, is it for the glory of god!!
SImple words with wisdom of truth. IT MAkes sense to me perfectly!!!! THough viewership serves as a motivation and encouragement, the main purpose should be something deeper. SOmething more meaningful. I am glad that she has share her wisdom with me. =>

Wedding dinner
E*** wedding was a grand one, held at intercontinental hotel. It was really a fanciful one with a live band, with people serving and changing plates at every juncture. It was beautiful and tis nice to know friends around u is getting married. Like one of my friend's nick on MSN, "there is a season for everything"! How true is that. => Meet up with my secondary school friends. Used to hang around with them lots and we use to meet up regularly to play soccer back in NS time. Like wat the bible says (not the eaxt verse) " DO not forget to meet up regulary, like some have the habit of doing so, but encourage one another...since the end time is near". I think i would try to make more effort to meet up with friends. =P

YAting
I think my gf is getting somewhat more understanding.. Haha.. no doubt she still get upset and angry at times. But i appreciate that she allows me to spend more time with my friends. Gee.. SHe treated me to donuts on Sunday and her act of going the extra mile for me by buying for me, makes me feel so love. THanks dear!!!! ANd i like pple to keep promise. RITE?! U says we be going to exercise this week.
Anyway, may god continue to cloth me in love, compassion, peace and joy and that i would use my time wisely and continue to make a difference in my friends, relative, my parents, and dear life. USe me lord, make me shine for u!!! Amen. =>

A so weird day

I feel so weird today. I just came back from a run, one of my favourite past-time and yet i couldnt bring myself to enjoy it. Without running the race in my mind once, i started to run literally and today it seems that i have to make a lot of effort just to keep my legs going. Yes, even though, I manage to run 7km today but the run today is just lousy.

Characters of Teachers
I think it is because of some issues that is happening and kept surfacing in my tots for the past few hours.. Firstly i am truly concern about a friend of mine who seems to have changed a bit in the midst of becoming a teacher. The teachers that he has been mixing with doesn't seems to be influencing him in the good way. On the contrary, he seems to be falling behind. We live in a society with many different kinds of people. Yet the common thing that all these people have is the ability to choose btw leading a good and moral life or a bad and immoral life, along these two extremes.

I used to have this tot in the past; that i do not have what it takes to be a good teacher. Partially because, i cannot pronounciate certain letters as clearly as i would like to.

But, according to my friends who has changed a bit, teachers at NIE nowsaday are so havoc with different kind of bad morals and character that i shall not list here. I would like to say that definitely not all trainees teacher are like that, but a rotten apple in a basket will spoil the whole basket of apples.

The lord says, we must blessed our leaders as they lead us in different realm. A moral and upright teachers will blessed many children in the years to come. Raising a future generation of good teachers. Lord, pls help the future teachers in Singapore, that u can raised a new generation of moral and upright leaders as they emulate their teaching abilities. Blessed my friend so that he will be the lightad and salt to his friends and he will influence his friends with his good qualities. Give him the ability to distinguish the good from the bad and the wisdom to choose to do good.

Secondly, is my relationship with someone close to me. THere seems to be some conflicts after some disagreeing of opinions. I just want to say that, every one is different and can have different tots and opinions. However, ultimately, will listen and respect wat u say. Hope there would be room for discussion on things that we disagree upon. May the lord bless our relationship and do away with all unhappiness

1 main event and 1 main tot

Meet for with Jingwen for lunch

It has been a long time since we last catch up. Well, it was really nice to do so. She was a nice JC friend in whom I can really talk and relate to and feel completely at ease in doing so. We sort of lost contact for a while, in the midst of our busyness. Well, seems that God is good. Opportunities were created when our working places is just approximately 150 meters apart. Tis is great to meet up with old friends and catch up on old times and on our present life. For god greatest command in the bible is to love our neighbor. That includes every single soul that is besides you. Well, but I am not so great ah. Generally, i am a bit more shy and quiet and that would be how i usually and normally behave unless u know me much better. =>

People watch- Meaning of life
Recently, when i am undergoing training in Samsung, i find myself asking my helpful colleague, CS, Why, How come, what is the purpose of doing this and that. I realize that this is something that i really would like to seek and to find out. What is the meaning of life and seeing an uncle seated beside me for dinner after my gym session with Ruihui, i suddenly realized that i will grow old one day. This day will passed by in the twinkle of an eye. Well, after working hard for a few months in a few company and thinking for a while, realized that my parents have been working very hard for more than 2 decades. IT is time that I should aid them in relieving their workload and allow them to rest more.

May the lord continue to bless me in the things that I do. Give me the strength to do more and in the midst, learn to do things in a more effective way. Bless my family, gf, friends and colleagues around me. That you would provide and extent ur peace, joy and love to them. May the good lord bless us!! God bless you.

Gym with XIde - 09 10 06

Went to gym with Xide today and it was great. Finally get to exercise after a quite hectic week of working. I think it is just so cool just to bring my shoe bag to work and change to my work out attire and just sweat it out. Always feel so satisfies after that. Thanks XIDE for gyming together. GREAT!!

My boss was really nice today. He came over to ask me whether if i have any lunch appointment. When he realized that it was a no, his decision was to treat our department to a lunch. Wah, really like a fatherly figure, showing care and concern to his subordinate. I really appreciate his thoughts. Think it was really nice

Has been quite busy working recently and have had an emotional day in church yesterday. My Barnabas kids were not paying attention and were always talking among themselves. They really crossed the line when they started to scold one another vulgar language. I Was so mad and furious that i scolded them and was emotionally upset. May god continue to use me and guide me to bring up these kids such that they would be develop in all aspects. Spiritually, socially, intellectually and physical. God use me to be their mentor.

2nd day at Samsung

2nd day at Samsung
Today is my 2nd day at Samsung. My eye is still sore and my stomach still feel a bit funny. Nonetheless, I still wore contact lenses to work. Partially it is because, a lot of pple says that I look quite weird with my spectacles on. Subjected to this tots, I had to wear contacts.

Well, just started learning new stuff. My colleague happens to be my cell bro, derrick’s friend. I think that the world is so small. => Well, still quite happy to be there as I feel like part of the team. It is something that I have been looking forward too since I graduated from NUS. Held a temp job at UOB and BOA. Both of this organization have let me taste a different flavor and have it strengths and weaknesses. However, nothing still beats a permanent job. Well, it is true that u would treasure the things around u more when u wait a long time for it.

New phrase of life- marriage
One of my friend message me last night.

Friend: Hey Qinlong, would like to invite u to my marriage
Qinlong: Mm.. Who are u. ( I lost my old phone with contacts )
Friend: Eun***.
Qinlong: Happy that u are getting married and I will be there….

My Secondary school is getting married!!! Wow… when I just gotten the news from Joanna that one of my JC friend is married, on that very same day, I was invited to my friend’s marriage. Such coincidental.

It just feels as if, there is really a phrase of time for everything.

My daily prayer
May the lord continue to guide me to live out my mission statement and that I will continue to based my cornerstone on relationship building and to reach out to the needs of my friends or colleagues. May I be able to have a continous growth and be sensible and sensitive to the people around me. May the lord use me for his greater purpose. God bless my friends, gf and my family members.

First day of work at Samsung as Regional Treasury Executive

Today is my first day of work with Samsung and the experience is great. Though I am down with stomach flu and coupled with a headache, and a sore eye. Nothing could withhold me from me going to my first day of work. => And glad that I did. Today experience is quite good. My colleague is like really nice. They have department lunch together today and my boss treated all of us to this Indonesia Restaurant. Think that It was really nice of him to do that. Furthermore, given my personality, it has given me ample more chances to communicate with my colleagues and more chances to talk to them.

Well, the experience on my first day is quite good and I would want to keep this up. May the lord continue to use me as the salt and light and that I would be guided by the lord and be use in whatever ways u call me to. I want to give thanks to the friends that have been encouraging me and sending sms to ask me about my first day of work. Thanks for caring. Appreciate it.

For all those friends who are still striving hard in their jobs or in their studies. God bless u all. Take care and till we meet again.

Back To blogging- New phrase of life

I have decided to spend some time to restart my blog all over again. I think in a way, this is my personality. When I am too busy and focusing on something, I tend to neglect on certain matters. Well, graduated from NUS le and the life after that is much different. Think when we are faced with different phrases in our life, we tend to have different challenges and issues.

For the past two months, I was working in Bank of America as a contract staff. It was based project on an annual review Well, it reminds me of my NUS days that was also project laden but the only difference is that I am paid for this.

My life for the past three months is hard to be describe with words. Well, just started working for 4 months since May…. Firstly in UOB and then in BOA. These 2 different banks give me different feelings and allow me to meet up with different people. I will say that, generally, banking staff give me the feeling that they are a bunch of very hardworking people, who have the tendency to stay late to finish their work.

The past week has been tiring. Yating has been encouraging; calling me at 8.30am, (The time that she walk to the bus-stop and the time in which I am already in office). She has been teasing me and saying that I will be given the best worker award, and at the same time, the electricity bills for my company will go up by a lot this month. This is because, I have been going there at 7 plus in the morning and staying late until 10 plus for both mon and tues. Have been doing so in order to finish the project on hand. Finally, with the help of Ruihui, another temp staff in BOA, we manage to finish this project on thurs. I think it was really great to work together with him as a team. My project mate and I have had make a new friend. We have very similar interest like running and playing Romance of the three kingdoms game. Appreciate his effort in this project. Without his help, might not have finish it. Thanks Ruihui. =>
Thanks yating for being understanding; and bear not going out on weekdays, because I have to work Overtime for these past few days.

Was supposed to go out with yating on sat. And it was nice just relaxing at the East Coast beach. Looking at the sea and just resting. YEAH!!!!

Anyway, I will be starting my first perm job tomolo. I give thanks to God for the blessings in my life. For putting me through trial and difficulties before allowing me to get this job. For putting different people into my life and for their help and encouragement. Thank God for blessing me with this job. I am truly blessed and I would like to live out my mission statement.


One more thing, I am very encouraged by my brothers and friends by my side. Thanks waileong and Xide for being so encouraging. God bless.

My Mission Statement: To lead a wholesome and purposeful life, living live in balance, centered in god, guided by the spirit, aiming to build a community of relationship with a deep sense of desire to touch the lives of others while at the same time, I would continue to sharpen my saw, maximizing my learning curve and opportunities continue to be dressed in patience, care and love. Communication of ideas and thoughts with clarity and confidence
