Excessive

I feel an excessive need to write today. I don't know why. Too much happened lately and I was really unable to get it out of my system. Somehow, everytime when things happened, be it good or bad, I'll always remember the men that I led. I will always remember Ling Jia Hao who is always rocking in RnI with his fav Gospel songs with me banging our heads together screaming early in the morning at 0710hrs. I remember Elton doing the sacastic shit against wierd people who bothered us with useless questions. I remember Jasmine screwing the other guy for the lack of interest in their personal work. I remember Lee Kok Seng looking stressed infront of his computer, cos he needs to submit his reports on time. I remember Long Ge confidently telling me, " All you need is to sign this document, I'll make sure the rest is done up swee swee. " And he never screw me up once, never. I remembered Kelvin Lam doing his best to do his RnI job. I remember JunHui kanna gang banged..... against the sharp corner of the table. I remember Wild Boar looking motivated when I told him that he will have off-days. You should have seen his face man.... I remember Chitra looking so focused on her paperwork. I remembered Joel telling VJ that he's an ass. I remembered VJ screwing incompetent people. I remembered Jonathan so consistently making sure that the office is cleaned and tidy up. And still will be messed up by us.... He never gave up anyways. I remember Sebas working so hard that I have to scold him to make him go home early. But he never anyways.... I remember the passion these people have and how times have passed... It's the passion of these people that have kept me going on and on and on and on. They are the ones that really got me going when things are tough and difficult nowadays. Thanks guys!!

Guess what, I smiled.

Sometimes, it's really good to act stupid or maybe, the right word is blur. Life sometimes is over-complicated with lotsa noise and distorted messages that go through the air. I seek to be a simple person, but someone else will come and complicate the hell out of it. Something happened today. It's the usual workplace politics again. It's someone who think that I was unworthy to replace his position. Somehow, I laughed and say to myself," Why don't he think that I was doing him a favour?" To be trueful about it, I thought was selected to go there and clear his shit... Talk about toilet bowl mentality. He went on further to throw poison daggers at me to everyone that comes his way. And I'm sure everyone can see my back full of daggers sticking out and my face blue-black from the poisoning. I laughed. It's not that I don't know, but sad to say, I knew that he was doing that to me since 1999. I smile. I never said anything 'bout him for the past 5 years. And it will be the same for the rest of my life. Why? Cos' I choose a simple life.

See, there are some out there....

The "Find of the Season", that's what was racing through my brain. I thought there's no leader in SA. To my total shock, I was dead wrong. But am I glad I was wrong. I found someone that is capable of getting things straighten out for SA and although there might be some limits to his area of responsibilities but I am very sure, given the right position and support, we can groom him to one of Armt better leaders. Someone capable like Sivakumar, Vj, Jonathan, Joel and much more. I started off today straight away, giving him authority for something and it was up to my expectation that things are done. Of course, it is only something for him to start of with others to acknownledge his presence and the the rest will follow... Beginning of great things!!!
