Life is a confidence trick!


Having confidence is like having an erection of the personality. Some can sustain their confidence almost indefinitely, others have it for a few seconds before they revert to feeling small and embarrassed.


They said that confidence is self-perpetuating. Create some and soon you'll have more. Don't worry if you don't know how, I've learned that you can gain confidence by drinking.


Alcohol help you lose the 3 big confidence inhibitors:

1. your self-doubt

2. your self-awareness

3. your pathetically underpowered personality.


However, there is a fine line of doing it. Overdo it and you'll end up losing it.


Losing confidence is the worst thing that can happen to anyone. One moment you have it and can charm the birds out of the trees. The next you've lost it and you're being shat on by every bird in the tree.


You get the idea..

We cant polish a turd


Have been busy at work,
Learned that we can't polish a turd, BUT we can always roll it in glitter.
AND Sis lend me this Spongebob,
whenever I presses the nose it makes those emo noises, had a good laugh =)
Reminds me of Chris *grins*

haven't had internet access these days..
quick updates,

Came across Champagne & Handcuff by Alan Ardy.

Enjoy.

... "I love your poem – send me more!” you said,
Even though it urged you into my bed.

Or even the stairs or the kitchen floor
And then perhaps up against the fridge door!

Then whispering your name and holding you tight,
Asleep in my arms far into the night.

But a crucial point I’m eager to stress,
Even though I’d love to help you undress,

Is that my focus isn’t between your thighs
But somewhere behind your beautiful eyes. ...


Oh, and Happy birthday Jc,

noticed the strange expression? (No, its not me or my lame joke, I swear!)

Message to a neighbour

Living in city means we had to make do with strangers living around us. We called them - neighbours. (sometimes housemates if you rent a room) You learn to hate them when you had to hear what they do, from their arguments to their television to them making out, etc..


At times, you need to put on earplugs when you go to bed, but you can't be doing that on a weekday because, how are you going to wake up the next day?


Behold, the subtle way to remind the neighbor to keep it low..

Tired Mind


Above picture kinda describe what I'm experiencing now..

Trying to catch up with work thus have not been indulging in thinking lately,

so here goes..


Unusual (and fun!) Date Ideas


1.Go on a search for as many good climbing trees as possible, climb as high as you both can in all of them, compile photo evidence


2.Go to a major chain bookstore, and leave notes to future readers in copies of your favorite books


3.Have her dress up as a ghost and you dress up as Pacman. Walk around downtown holding hands, and whenever anyone sees you two, pretend to be embarrassed, and run off screaming “wocka wocka wocka.”


4.Create photo evidence suggesting that you went on an adventure that didn’t really happen


5.Dress up as superheros and stop at least one petty crime “ie. jaywalking, littering….”


6.Build forts out of furniture and blankets, and wage war with paper airplanes.


7.Try and visit as many people as you can in one night, and turn as many things inside their apartment upside down as you can, without them noticing.


8.Go to the airport, get the cheapest, soonest departing flight to anywhere when you show up, and stay there for a weekend.


9.Write a piece of fiction together. Outside at a cafe. Ask strangers when you get stuck.


10.Dress to the nines, pretend to be married, and test drive very expensive vehicles at an auto dealership.


11.Do the lamest tourist thing in your area that you have both secretly wanted to do forever. Have an unabashed good time!

13.Drive somewhere unknown and have dinner in a city you’ve never been to. With fake names.


14.Go to a minor league baseball game under the stars. Tell each other stories about how bad you are at athletics. Randomly cheer for both teams. Eat lots of Cracker Jacks.

Work is


Work is (___fill in the blank___)


For me, media planning is like proposing a plan. A picture that worth ten thousand words.. and after much hard work, your client buys the idea, and then they start to believe in using the picture and words at the same time.. and then not, and then maybe just the picture, maybe not..


Here's a poem for you guys in this industry.


When the client moans and sighs
Make his logo twice the size.
When the client's hopping mad,
Put his picture in the ad.
If he still should prove refractory
Add a picture of his factory

-Anonymous


I think that working in media agency resembles acting in a play. You know, just like in the opera when a guy gets stabbed in the back and instead of bleeding,

he sings.
