I myself also took some sort of sabbatical for 8 months (England, France, Netherlands, Cambodia and mostly in New Zealand), thanks to some people I have free accommodation but I still have to pay her back though (a 5 figure amount)

Me.2
I tweet
I blog
I (still) write diaries
I scrapbook
I play text-rpg
And I'm not ashamed to mention all those above. Lol
(Means nothing much to do online since I'm not a hardcore gamer) ---> post here
Ok was browsing through my old posts and I came across this. Time to make some updates.
I seldom tweet
I seldom blog
I seldom write diaries (anymore!)
I (never) scrapbook (wtf have i ever?!)
I (still) play text-rpg
I (now play online-rpg (Dragonica cum DragonSaga!)
So, I seldom write diaries anymore ever since I'm in New Zealand because I found that life is more fulfilling by living in the moment (LIVING IN THE MOMENT!) than to recording what is happening in your life, you're missing like 70% of your life at the moment. I think it was a good choice, and of course now having gaining much life experience from my overseas cum sabbatical cum rediscovering self, I find myself to be more at peace and life is more meaningful. All in all, a stable 30 years old person
Now to get my finances in order...
On my third week...
So today starts the third week of my third company in my whole life. Everything has been great so far : I've been working like a boss and my pay is substantial for me to live for the moment, job ain't that stressful, not much sunlight, non-bitchy/sob colleagues, short and cheaper travelling to and fro work, and most importantly, a reputable and high-prestige company.. so its been good for me and mi gracias por Dios por estes.
I recently bought one of the things on my wishlist made three months earlier - the UE BOOM for a cheap price of S$199 (someone bought it for NZ$259 earlier) so it was good deal hahaha. Now my next target would be getting my finances on the right track, in order and eventually have my own savings (gotta fingers-crossed that I would continue to stay in this company and have a stable income) which I hope, would be ok within a few months time. Also, I would like to have my own GoPro soon (but not that important yet)

A halfway status...
Its been three months since I left New Zealand for Singapore. Yet the memories of all my Survivors teams still feels like it happened yesterday. Making this daring decision to come here, I never ever regret it. I've gained what not many people amongst my peers could have gain, that is, life experience. Some say to advance the career ladder, you need to have considerable working experience. But I say, and I think that life experience is as important as well. I believe there are good employers out there who value life experience, what it could bring into their organisation. An outview worldly approach in solving day-to-day matters where no other employees could have solved. Though I may have amassed a near four months worth of debt, but I say this is well worth it. Now I just got to work in clearing my debts, which I confidently believe I could do it. Vamos!

I hope after the new year somebody will get back to me. I need money! and to keep my sanity intact! Ahhh

An Eventful Month & A New Beginning
Its been so long since I last logged on Blogger and posted a blog here.
The past month has been an eventful one in my life. I quitted my job and be part of the 5-10% (average) of the unemployment peeps. After that I was literally living out of the suitcase.
17th July I left Singapore for a week's homely trip to my birth town Kuching, just to pack up and arrange all my stuffs for my next phase in life. Afterwards, it was like:-
17-23 July --- Kuching
25-28 July --- Bangkok
30 July - 5 August --- London (London, baby!!!)
5-8 August --- Paris (Bonjour, mademoiselle!!!)
8-10 August --- Amsterdam (RLD and weed, here I come!!!)
10-13 August --- London (again~)
Highlight of the trip so far.. was in Paris. As said, it it truly a very beautiful city and I definitely will come back there again. #ILoveParis
Arrived Singapore on the evening of 14th August.. I had to repack and pack the rest of my stuffs to get on to the next part of my life: Migrating to New Zealand (Kia ora!!!)
16th August I depart my home for the past 4 years (sleeping on the floor with dog's smell) in Singapore, saying my goodbyes to all my friends in Kuching and Singapore and arrived in Auckland. It was almost the end of winter and it felt good. It took about 3-4 days to get the orientation in my body to be on local time (not sure if it was in London time and Singapore time --- the jet-lagged jet lag)
I could say that I'm starting to live my life and I'm sure He has it written in the stars for me to be here.
Here's to a new life and new beginning *wine clinks

Zomg! Haven't been posting here for quite some time now. Sorry le blog. Lolz.Well, all is not forgotten! 3 months since my last post. Many things have recently since my last presence here (excluding busy with work and time just flies by thingy) ; went back for cny, group trip to Batam, Desaru, February and March just pass by like that, took total for less than a day annual leaves for the past few months?, bought first property @ Pandan City area, Johor, bought a new laptop (a gaming one, that is!) enrich my knowledge regarding equities, properties, gaming, current affair etc., bought my first stocks!, buddies going on work travel trip @ NZ (Enghui & Jingnin), another buddies getting married (BC & TD), quitted STA, oh and Jennifer Lawrence won Oscar Best Actress, also Iron Man 3 is showing soon!, GI JOE 2 was a disappointment -,- but not as disappointed as Ghost Rider 2.
That basically sums up what happened in these past few months of my life here. Oh well, hope to write more soon I hope. Wish things are smooth sailing this year.

[Change] Blog Description
Gonna change my blog description from
"Be suave. Be compose. Be bold."
to
"Debonair & enigmatic"
Learnt the word "enigmatic" when I spend 3 hours of my sleeping time reading "Fifty Shades of Grey", which is so unnecessary and that stuffs is obviously for women to read. Ahhh, what a waste of time (and sleep). Oh, well. Anyways, enigmatic means a person, thing or situation that is mysterious, puzzling a ambiguous (according to dictionary.com). Ambiguous means something that is difficult to understand or/and has different meanings. Okay, the latter description is for my own reference. I know, i am still trying to improve my English encountering many different terms when reading recently. Even making a note for it! Well, you could it is one of the ways of me passing my time and also its one of my interest of learning a new words.
Cheers. Could be denonair, would be enigmatic.

Rants
Enough of being optimistic since I came back from China. lol.
Spent yesterday's night with my good old bud Andy who transitted to Taiwan via Singapore. He's a really good friend of mine that I would give up my usual wednesday football session just to meet him up! Hey, its not everyday you get a visitor from Taiwan, plus its an old buddy too lol We share our life's experience together, but as usual he did the talking more. :D That's the old Andy I know.
By the way, just posting here as it is Euro Cup 2012 Season now...anyways was browsing through Facebook, and it somehow felt different this time. I find life is unfair and some people has the better lives (or better halves) Am I not deserving all these? Or has my time not arrived yet? Was it not my time to shine yet? Or something is holding back from letting the light of my life shining? I find that my new-found optimism (that I have acquired in China) seems to be fading away.. and all the clouds of negativism taking over. Hmmm, I could place the blame on being with the wrong peers. I must do something to my life, I am still thinking... but action must be carry out soon!
Of course, by keeping the motto "look to the future, appreciate the present and put the past behind" actively applied into my life. Ahhh, reaching this sentence, after ranting and expressing, that optimism-spirit is kind of holding on now. *side-smile*

(More) About Me
just took one of the many fb's personality test... dont wanna publish it in facebook cos prefer it publish it here (make my blog more various)
here's the result/analysis (gosh those words reminded me of thesis =.=)
Dear Vincent Ng, below are your Personality Tests result:
Who is your true self: You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.
Your view on yourself:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You are down-to-earth
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : People like you because you are so straightforward
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You like serious
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Smart
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Determined people
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You don't judge a book by its cover
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : So good-looking people aren't necessarily your style
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship
The seriousness of your love:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You are very serious about relationships
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : If you meet the right person
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You will fall deeply
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Beautifully in love
Your views on education:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Education is less important than the real world out there
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Away from the classroom
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Deep inside you want to start working
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Earning money
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Living on your own
The right job for you:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You need to choose something
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Go for it to be happy
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Achieve success
How do you view success:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Success in your career is not the most important thing in life
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You are content with what you have
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working
What are you most afraid of:
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : You are concerned about your image
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : The way others see you
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : It's time for you to believe in who you are
Ƹ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ· : Not what you wear
Author's Comment:
