Being ahead of time.

Being ahead of time means to get things done before its due. It gives me the feeling of extra 'power' in my hand. Ability to manipulate time and do the things I want is only made possible when schedules are met, ahead of time. Although its not yet totally finished, I am quite comfortable with my condition of time management now. Being ahead of time, enables me to go for badminton 2 sessions since this week. As compared to the beginning of the semester, I guess I had not managed my time well, it really makes me felt sick and tired of chasing time, trying to keep myself in pace with datelines.!

Kept on questioning, why does everyone seems to have enough time while I seem to be lacking, despite the fact that God is very fair by giving everyone 24 hours?? Its how you manage time that matters. I have just learnt my lesson.

I was attracted to this question threw by my tutor yesterday. It sounds: 'Is time an asset to you, or is it an expense?'. This question really judge how a person spends his time. Spending time with benefits makes time an asset to that person, while a person spending time, out of boredom, just to kill time, it is an Expense.!

Too much expense is not good. When asset is less than expense, you have negative equity.! Its equivalent to making a loss.. Do you wanna be a loser?

Asset = Liability + Equity

Profit = Income-expense

Profit = asset

If you income is not enough to cover your expense, which means you are wasting more time than you are benefiting it, it means you are depleting your equity and your asset.! Do you want that?
I am taking time as a expense now while I am typing. That's bad.

Sorry Shean Tyng, forgot you again for badminton today. It was an in prompt to decision to go tonite. Nex round then!

Thanks to Shean Tyng, I was given the opportunity to practice some indoor shooting at this auspicious 81st Birthday celebration of Uncle Chan Sui Guan on 13th April 2008. Quite a challenging shooting nite for me. Flash was high in demand in table to table toasting till it nearly burnt my flash.

I like the close up shots of the cakes. Its just so nice..!

Orang Utans at Semonggok

Green Club of Swinburne has organized an excursion to Semonggoh National Park last Saturday, 19th April 2008. Everyone has a wonderful time with orang utans and the nature environment there was just so wonderful. We managed to meet with a few orang utans during their feeding hours. Overall, the aim of the excursion, which is to expose more people to natural environment to look at a real life orang utans and to cultivate the love towards nature was met.

Despite of all the benefits gained from the excursion, we failed in one important thing. Respect the nature. Principle of nature: Leave with nothing by trails. Some participants just failed this by throwing rubbish in the park and even get warned by park rangers. That really irritates me. Well, I do sincerely hope they learn their lesson and respect the nature. You wouldnt want people to start littering in your house after your visit rite?

Posted below are some pics taken. For those who didnt manage to make it, enjoy the pics of orang utans. For those who went, it shall serve as a memory.
