Father and Daughter along with the Carabao

Carabao Ride With Grandpa

After the busy days of work in the farm, the father and her daughter are going home before dark. They are traveling with their carabao along the way and they have to pass four towns before they arrive home.

On the first town, the bystanders noticed and said “that father and daughter are fool, they have the carabao to ride in but they are not.” The father heard what they are talking and so he asked his daughter to ride at the back of carabao.

On the second town, the bystanders noticed again and said “Look at his daughter, she knows that her father is tired working all day. I wish she consider her father to rest somehow.” The daughter heard what they are talking and so she asked her father to ride with her at the back of the carabao.

On the third town, they are both smiling and never expect to hear some talks about them. But the bystanders noticed them again and said “How poor the carabao is abuse that way. It had worked all day and that stupid farmers are still ridding.” They heard them both and plan what to do before heading to the next town.

Guest what happen? It’s a big laughing out loud. The father and daughter carry the carabao on their shoulder. The mother said when they see them “You two are failure if you keep listening to those negative people. You don’t have to deal with them and leave them along the way.”

What did you learn?

  • Focus on your good start.
  • Don’t let other people drives you what to do.
  • Don’t deal with negative people, avoid them.
  • You will experience obstacle but as long as you keep moving you will reach your destination.

Golfing at Orchid Country Club Driving Range

Golfing Driving Range OCC Singapore

I never expect myself playing golf and I don’t plan to do it. But then I experienced it and it was fun. I was invited by Lutchie to play golf with her at Orchid Country Club. She borrowed the set club from her friend Nick and bag is heavy. That time I realized that who would carry that bag if I wasn’t there.

We play on Driving Range that is known as one of the biggest driving range in South East Asia for having 160-bay. I like the automatic tee-up system activated with a smart card. The ball is automatically loading on the tee when the sensor senses it’s gone. It’s said to be the only auto-tee system in Singapore.

Golfing for the first time

I thought it was easy. Yes it is not easy for the first timer like me. When I strike the ball, I miss many times. Then I observe other how they do it. Lutchie is coaching me how and I learn from what she told me. You have to be focus and precise motion to hit the ball. You have to learn the perfect swing. When I am striking the ball hard, I miss the shot many times and hit it when I strike slowly. If you want to learn the perfect swing you have to start hitting the ball slowly and develop your motion skills. When you got the skill you can add more power to your shot.

What did you learn?

  • Orchid Country Club has the biggest golf driving ranges in South East Asia and the only auto tee-up system in Singapore.
  • It is easier to learn when you have a coach.
  • Skills can be develop and enhance.
  • You don’t have to be rich to play golf.

What it is for me in Singapore?

Queens Ave, Singapore

I am now here in Sembawang looking outside the window from the 10th floor and thinking more why I am here. I have good job in Makati and living nicely where I can do whatever I want to do. But I can’t buy whatever I want to buy. It is the reality; you have to be contented to all what you have to suppress your happiness.

I had planned to visit Singapore but not as quickly as I thought. I was invited to come over my friends place and agreed instantly. Somehow I am thinking of how I am going to fulfill my responsibility being out of the office and being in relationship. It will be a long distance art of living.

I have to do my office work in Makati while I am here until I totally turnover my job to someone who is qualified. My online businesses never stop here and maybe my venture here will contribute good things.

Now I am looking for a good I.T. jobs in Singapore. I wonder who will find me or where can I find it. I can try any other job in sales and marketing but I wish to be independent businessman here. I want more connections to be with the good teams and organizations.

Finally what I want to accomplished now is to leave my worries and manage my responsibility at my work in Makati and look for a new work here Singapore.

I will never forget to say thank to the people who understand why I am here (my Family, Lourdes, and Nixon) and to the kind hospitality of Lutchie Danao. I won’t be here without your supports and blessing. Thank You.

You Don’t Deserve My Tears

Submarine Garden

My heart is no longer mine when I give it to you. And it is always with you that’s why it hurts so much when you lie not to me but to yourself. Exactly when you don’t let others know that you have a boyfriend or fiancee or making them feel that you are single. Sometimes don’t feel that you are proud of me in front of them, and confuse why it is hard for you to tell them about us. I love you for I will forgive and try to understand but you don’t deserve my tears anymore…

I have to love you more to cover up this pain but I can’t hold my breath much longer. I can say I love you forever but my life is already over.

I can embrace and accept every reason you can say and convince myself beyond the doubt. You may not perfectly the kind of girl I want, but here I am accepted you from the start willing and waiting for you to grow up.

And after all the things you’ve done, I cried so many times. My eyes are crying, my brain is freezing, my heart is burning, and I don’t know where I am. I just see myself crying and shaking. Thank you for all the memories of love and joy we’ve share. Thank you for I have the best you ever become and those happy moments put smile on my face.

I can be happy loving you, but if you turn away from me, I will tell you again that I will never have to cry because you don’t deserve my tears. Continue reading →

Accept and Forgive

FreedomI walked so far to reach you
Fall on my knees and beg you
Wave goodbye and crash our heart
Make time and distance apart.
Sooner we will cross again
Accept me for who I am.
Let us throw away the pain
From overlooking mountain
Smile and start singing
To find a new beginning
Be happy for what we’ve wept
Have courage for what is left
Don’t let your memory diminish
Hope for successful finished

Same constant feelings

I made a short poem for I am dreaming of the same constant feelings. The events are so random but I always woke up with the same interpretations. I wish not to understand what it means or ignore the events I saw in my dreams but it is touching my life in reality.

I hate you and then, I love you. It’s like a want to push you off a cliff, and then run to the bottom and catch you.

 

Same constant feelings
I have a good dreams but it can be bad
And it will defends on each others love
This random kind of dream with same meaning
Making me cry each time in the morning
I wish it is real so that I know
But I hope it isn’t because it hurts.
I am truly aware that I love you
I am trying to add more trust in you.
Dream jumping off the cliff and you will catch
And drowning like, you’re the only person that can make me breathe back.

I went to This Is Kadiwa event alone but ended up meeting new and old friends. I don’t want to miss this happening. I will regret for not coming because my locations to the venue is very near.
