Today Lesson

Today and last week was just practising our hand movement for the performance in Sekinchan.

No other new dance taught.

Note : Sorry to inform you that Sim's party at Lake View ticket have been sold out.

COUGH

I have been coughing for almost 2mths and have seen 3 doctors and consult the physician for 3 times and still no cure yet.

At first it was a very dry cough without any phylem, I cough none stop when I feel like itch from my lungs.(usually very bad cough at night)

I even consult my family doctor at Jalan Ipoh and she said I have bronchitis. After taken her medicine, some of the phylem(whittish) did come out when I cough but that does not cure my cough at all.

Today, I have told by one of my line dance friend(Yin Chen) about my cough and she immediately pluck some of the leave from her garden for me. I am very glad and happy to have such caring friend.

She told me this leave can cure cough and all you have to do is bring to boil and add rock sugar.(Dont boil too long)

Well after all its no harm in trying and my very special and big big thanks to Yin Chen.

Charity Dance at Jaya Jusco, Kinta City

After our vacation at Sg Klah, Taiping and Bkt Merah, our 2nd day last stop was to the Kiwanis Charity Dance at Jaya Jusco, Kinta City, Ipoh.

I promised Jessie to meet her there as well as to do some charity.

I was a surprised to meet real friendly line dancers there as well.

March 2009 My family vacation-Taiping

1st Day - 20.3.09

Its was an enjoyable trip to Taiping even though only for 2days and one night.(20.3.09 to 21.3.09)

We started our journey at around 8am and reached Bidor around 9.30am.

We had our breakfast in Bidor at the Pung Chan Restaurant which they serve Duck herbal mee as shown below;

After that we head for Sg Klah Air Panas which located at Sungkai.

The entrance fees for Adult is RM10 and Senior citizen is RM7.00.

Here's the Air Panas pool

And here's the Spring Water pool.

After the swimming and playing at the pool we drove to Taiping to locate a hotel to settle down.

When we reached Taiping its was raining very heavily. Its was Lam ideal not to book the hotel in advance so most of the new hotel in the town was fully booked.

However we are fortunate enough to get a super deluxe room which cost only RM118 per night at the Meridien Hotel, jalan Simpang located next to HSBC. Eventhough the hotel was quite old but their rooms are clean and well kept and they have a good view room.

And here's the view from our hotel room(Room No : 205)

Day 2

After our breakfast we drove down to Bkt Merah to look around and also to plan our next vacation at this place.

WORDS

Sweet words are easy to say,
Sweet things are easy 2 buy,
But sweet people are difficult to find
Life ends when U stop dreaming,
Hope ends when U stop believing,
Love ends when U stop caring,
Friendship ends when U stop sharing.
So share this with whom ever U consider a friend.
To love without condition,
To talk without intention,
To give without reason,
And to care without expectation is the heart of a true friend...
Life is short,
Break the rules,
Forgive quickly,
Kiss slowly,
Love truly,
Laugh uncontrollably,
And never regret anything that made you smile.

Is it true Recession is COMING???????

My company started the VSS(voluntary separation scheme) last 2 weeks to those at our project site. Most of the people is so worried about the situation happening around the world. Is it true the recession is coming or just the employer is taking this advantage for their own benefit?

So, to all employers out there, please read the story below before you take further action;

What is recession?

This Story is about a man who once upon a time was selling Hotdogs by the roadside.

He was illiterate, so he never read newspapers. He was hard of hearing, so he never listened to the radio. His eyes were weak, so he never watched television. But enthusiastically, he sold lots of hotdogs.

He was smart enough to offer some attractive schemes to increase his sales. His sales and profit went up.

He ordered more a more raw material and buns and use to sale more. He recruited few more supporting staff to serve more customers.

He started offering home deliveries. Eventually he got himself a bigger and better stove.

As his business was growing, the son, who had recently graduated from College, joined his father. Then something strange happened. The son asked, "Dad, aren't you aware of the great recession that iscoming our way?" The father replied, "No, but tell me about it." The son said, "The international situation is terrible. The domestic situation is even worse.

We should be prepared for the coming bad times."The man thought that since his son had been to college, read the papers, listened to the radio and watched TV. He ought to know and his advice should not be taken lightly.

So the next day onwards, the father cut down the his raw material order and buns, took down thec olourful signboard, removed all the special schemes he was offering to the customers and was no longer as enthusiastic.

He reduced his staff strength by giving layoffs. Very soon, fewer and fewer people bothered to stop at his hotdog stand. And his sales started coming down rapidly, same is the profit.

The father said to his son, "Son, you were right". "We are in the middle of a recession and crisis. I am glad you warned me ahead oftime

"Moral of The Story: It's all in your MIND! And we actually FUEL this recession much more than we think we do!!!!!!!!!! !! What can we take away from this story??

1. How many times we confuse intelligence with good judgment?
2. Choose your advisers carefully but use your own judgment
3. A person or an organization will survive forever, if they have the 5 Cs
*Character * Commitment * Conviction * Courtesy *Courage

The tragedy today is that there are many walking encyclopedias that are living failures.

The More practical and appropriate views on this economic recession is -

This is the time to reunite together for any small or a big organization
This is the time to motivate and retain people which are the biggest asset
This is the time to show more commitments to the customers
This is the time show values of our company to the world
This is the time to stand by our Nation
