Challenges = Opportunities => Rewards
Today's work shocked me so much. It will be one of those defining moments that I actually felt useful when I work.
Let's see:
1. Serving and cleaning up a big meeting room, picking up all the leftover bottles of mineral water, carrying new crates of bottled water.
2. Getting a lecture about how office is pathetic and being pit-bottom.
Now I see clearly why I am being put into such positions in the first place, even though till now my JD (job description) is still vague. Alot of things can happen unexpectedly, for better or worse.
And mine is for the better. It always has.
Cleaning up the big meeting room? Help setting up projectors? Piecing up a 1/100 scale tower? In the line of work that I am most interested in, these are not to me what work is all about. It could have been the relative work experience, or it's just my blatant dislike for that which is the vague JD - they don't know what they want out of me, just like with most of their decisions. You can even call it procrastination.
But I carried on. I do whatever things they want me to do. At least you can learn something. That's my positive thinking appealing to me. And it translates into a precious learning experience to me.
Who would have thought that, despite the little things, people do actually take notice of you. Forget about bad impressions at first sight. It's nothing but a deterrent to the big things ahead of you.
While I do share with some that I am not that kind of person who likes being praised for any works , it deals me great joy when people takes note of these little things you do, giving good remarks about it. And in the end, you feel glad that you're appreciated. You have been given great value.
This is one challenge I'll never forget, and so does my dislike for disorganisation. But hey, life goes on :)
Well, as for the lecturing part, it's all about me and my senior colleague cursing and swearing (literally) about the level of pathetic-ness in the office. But the awesome effect of being transparent is being seen here - leadership. Again, I think it really comes with alot of experience (ie. OLD age) and exposure. This will be something I want to achieve before I leave this office. But of course, this will mean I'll be working hands on with another boss. Another new learning opportunity arises.
It is such a waste he cannot be a director, not because of his ethnicity (he's a Filipino), but rather a screwed up mindset of a lost king(s).
I feel great with all the knowledge I have. I feel very humbled with all the complements I get today.

One Horror After Another.....
Pattinson to replace Maguire in Spider-Man 4?
Sunday, January 17 01:26 pm
Robert Pattinson is set to swing into action to replace Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man 4, according to reports.
The Twilight hunk is reportedly the top choice with Columbia executives to star in the film, after Maguire pulled out last week over a reported script issue.
Daily Variety claimed movie bosses are planning to make a prequel about Spider-Man's alter-ego, Peter Parker, as a teenager instead - and Pattinson is the hot favourite to land the role, reports the Daily Mirror.
A source tells the publication, "The buzz in Hollywood is all about R-Patz as the hot, young thing being lined up to fill Tobey Maguire's shoes. It would be a hard act to follow as fans were traumatised at the news Tobey was going.
"His mild-mannered portrayal as Peter Parker and the transformation to Spider-Man kept millions of fans in the cinemas for the box-office smash. He also had great chemistry with Kirsten Dunst, who plays love interest Mary Jane."
But Pattinson faces tough competition for the coveted role - High School Musical star Zac Efron also has his eye on playing the web-slinger.
He says, "I don't know what the chances are to be honest. I assume they're pretty slim. It's a long-shot but if it came down to it, it'd be a dream come true. What young actor wouldn't?"

NEW MMORPG CALLED "OUTSIDE" !
The game is basically about you take the role of a normal civilian, whose story and life depends on the actions you choose.
Here's some of the highlight features that truly redefine the way MMOs should be played:
Job System (Over 20+ jobs including butcher, policemen, thief, truck driver and many more)
Unique Gameplay (Become a good or bad cop, turn into a master thief, buy clothes and business. Other features improve this amazing gameplay.)
PVP System (Engage in job wars such as company's fighting for the market or if your a cop, trying to fight off the villains and thieves. Each job has a rival job meaning each job has some sort of unique pvp nothing like the other jobs.)
Aging system (You can choose to start as a teenager earning their qualifications in school and doing chores and homework. You can be a good child that does everything correctly or a rebel/devil child who does mischievous things such as setting your neighbors cat on fire. Each day counts as a week, so you'll constantly aging and based on your looks as a child, you'll see yourself developing such as facial hair and height.)
Face Mapping (Take a close-up of your face and send it into the face mapping npc in game. Your face will then appear on your character as photo-realistic as possible.)
High Definition Redefined (You think HDMI is already graphically impressive? Play this game and immerse yourself in a world where High Definition Multimedia Interface is pale in comparison to this new, innovative REAL [Really Excellent and Lively] Definition Engine.)
Variety of Locations (You can carry yourself into various locations, geographically or regional. It will be the biggest map ever played in any MMO.)

Seriously, although you can save your game progress, it's the most awesome game I've ever played!!!!

New Year Resolution - Invictus
-Teddy Roosevelt, University of Paris, 23 April 1910
To no surprise, you do not hear this quoted in Midnight in the Museum.
It gives me great comfort whenever I read this, knowing how/where my worth is.
