its friday. . .

Luis Aragonés men secured a spot in the Euro 08 final in style as Spain thrash Russia for the second time in 16 days. . . That made my day when i woke up at six just now. . .
Finally after years of being underachievers, i got a feeling this is gonna be the year.
44 years since their last major competition win, and only the efficient Germans stand in their way now.
3 days away from the final, and i bet its gonna be nail biting from the first second to the last.

ANYWAY. . . . =)

The flowers finally were delivered at lunch time just now. . .
I hope she likes it. . .
And the card is kinda cute too. . .
hmmm. . .

viva la Espana! ! !

Spain knocked Italy out of the Euro 2008 tournament in a quarter final penalty shoot-out that saw a reversal of both team's past form on penalties. The jubilation of Cesc Frabegas who as cool as ice slotted it the winning penalty. . . 88 years on and finally breaking the jinx. . . hopefully its gonna be Spain year and with this crop of players they are gonna shed the tag of under achievers. . . Adios Italia. . .

The Final slot for the semis

haha. . . to my dearest colleague who has been listening to me on his bet. . .
why didn't you listen on this one. . . i told you Holland will fall to the Russians. . .
In Group C stages they played with defensive styles, thats why they shine. . .
And now against another offensive team who is tactically discipline, they just had no chance. . .
3 - 1, after the final whistle. . . this is no fluke. . .
tonight i'll be rooting for my supported team Spain, but being International chokers on the big stage, i'm losing confidence in them. And the fact that Italy has never lost to Spain for 84 years in all competitive matches. . . what are the chances today. . . it'll be flair against experience. . .
i hope Spain wins it but if you're a punter, i suggest you sit out today's game. .

And if Spain is to win, then he will be the likely hero. . .

lesson learnt

The Japanese have a great liking for fresh fish. But the waters close to Japan have not held many fish for decades. So, to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.

The farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring back the fish. The longer it took them to bring back the fish, the stale they grew.

The fish were not fresh and the Japanese did not like the taste. To solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.

However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish. And they did not like the taste of frozen fish. The frozen fish brought a lower price. So, fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little hashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired and dull, but alive. Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the difference. Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish. The fishing industry faced an impending crisis! But today, it has got over that crisis and has emerged as one of the most important trades in that country! How did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan ?


To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks. But now they add a small shark to each tank. The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state. The fish are challenged and hence are constantly on the move. And they survive and arrive in a healthy state!They command a higher price and are most sought-after. The challenge they face keeps them fresh!


Humans are no different. L. Ron Hubbard observed in the early 1950's: "Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment. " George Bernard Shaw said: " Satisfaction is death!"

If you are steadily conquering challenges, you are happy. Your challenges keep you energized. You are excited to try new solutions. You have fun. You are alive! Instead of avoiding challenges, jump into them. Do not postpone a task, simply because its challenging. Catch these challenges by their horns and vanquish them. Enjoy the game. If your challenges are too large or too numerous, do not give up. Giving up makes you tired. Instead, reorganize. Find more determination, more knowledge, more help. Don't create success and revel in it in a state of inertia. You have the resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.

thank god. . .

Another eventful day at work. Today its Friday so as usual we will have a mass safety patrol after lunch.
As usual I was expecting the same crap, spot the hazards, do rectification, more complains then end up with a long meeting that will last till four in the afternoon.
it started out lame as only 5 of the safety professional attended it. usually its around 10, most are on leave today or busy at other worksite.
halfway through the patrol, one working supervisor was seen rushing to us crying for help.
his gas meter was beeping and shows reading of H2S.
It was just a neighbouring unit and we rush to the scene, and by then i can already smell the foul odour. To my surprise the workers don't seem to care at all. Maybe its the complacency mindset, that comes with experience working for too long in this industry or simply plain STUPIDITY! !
As we went further in the reading shows 12 for H2S and 10 for CO. and the limit for H2S is to be below 10 and these people were completley ignorant and just carried on doing with their work. As safety personnels, it is our duty to ensure their safety. we called all out to evacuate and except for one dumb foreign worker, he looked at me blankly and said he want to finish tightening teh bolt of the pipe. WTF?? plain stupidity or just that ignorant. unfortunately, one worker working on the second platform passed out and as safety personnel we have to come in and rescue him out. i went in a group and we manage to pull him out. luckilly he came to after 10 mins. it was a near miss. thank god. after everything is over, i sat through the meeting thinking that it could be me next. working in a dangerous environment like this, i can never know how thw future is like. will i still see tommorow. . . i can only ponder.
