Rocky Balboa

March 6th, 2007 by waitingtodie

Went to watch "Rocky Balboa" today…. it was an awesome show… The ending was rather predictable but cool…Well, Rocky "The Italian Stallion" Balboa lost the match (expected) but he had one hell of a fight… What grabs my attention most was the quote he used…

Rocky Balboa:"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!"

Ain’t this quote exquisite…!! I’m in love with it…!! lolx…

Does “True Friend” really exsist..??

February 1st, 2007 by waitingtodie

What does "true friend" really means…? One who stand by you thru thick and thin..? One who will not run away from you when you are in deep shit..?

Definition of "True Friend"

A true friend is always there,

Maybe with uplifting prayer.

A dear friend think not of gain,

But what loss was caused by pain.

A true friend won’t let u down,

No matter whats comes around.

A real friend will come to aid,

When all other have betrayed.

A true friend believes their heart,

Conviction was from the start.

A special friend believes n trusts,

Offers help without a fuss.

I wonder does this kinda person ever exist in this world…?! Does anyone fits the bill..? I’m dying to be your friend…

It’s human nature to dodge whenever problems come right in your face, lest it is your friend who is facing the problem…

Only one with a "big heart" will be there for you when you encounter this sort of situation…!!

And there’s only one person i think who meets those requirement, perhaps even surpass what is required…

And that person is  GOD

Recap Of 2006

January 5th, 2007 by waitingtodie

2006 had been a rather emotional yr for me, many ups and downs (more "downs" than "ups" though)…

2006..!! Yr of my ORD date..!! meaning 2 yrs of national service life is over, my very own "freedom" is finally back in my own hands..!! Muahaha..!! But ORD to me, ain’t a gd thing either… no more spoon-feeding from the govt… the most important thing is no more jokes n laughter every morning with my ship crews… It’s like missing something from my daily life… Afterall, i’ve been posted to the ship for 1 yr plus… Bonds have already been build…!! Missed Elton n Ninja calling me "CB Leong", "suan-ing" of each other, my analysis cum advisor Mr Elton Teo, my Man U and anti-Chelsea supporter Ninja, ahem… Chelsea supporter Mr Phua (Wake up lah..!! This yr is Man U turn to regain wat they have lost..!! The EPL title..!! Chelsea will falter..!! HAHAHA..!!) Anto’s telling me to do this do that (afterall i’m the smallest in the OEW dept.. Wat to do..?!) Talking about Anto, dunno it’s me r him the lucky one… Known him from the every first day of my enlistment… Same BMT, separated for a while in JRC, reunited in JTQT, posted on the same ship in OJT and finally posted on the very same ship till we ORD… How "coincidental" can this be..?! Always kena "tio jia" by him..!! haha..!! But his no too bad oso la…at least willing to be my listening ear when i’m down…!! Same goes to Ah Bong…!! Last but not least, my wonderful OEW dept..!! esp. having a hilarious L…!! nv fail to break a smile off ppl face..!! Nv regretted being posted to Formidable… There are rough times, hectic sailing schedule but everyone is always there when u need one another, thats what makes Formidable so special…!! Now that i’ve ORD-ed, this wonderful memories/experience will always be kept deep down in me..!!
