We didn't make our choice to be here; however we have a choice of HOW WE want to live. Don't waste this life. Use it,enjoy it,be happy about it and remember to share and take care of each other. It's a demostration of 'STRENGTH' to 'GIVE' and to be 'KIND' to others is for your own 'GOOD'.

Cheers,
Flying Monk for 17 years.</subtitle><link rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#feed' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://code2turbulence.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29520539/posts/default?max-results=100'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://code2turbulence.blogspot.com/'/><link rel='hub' href='http://pubsubhubbub.appspot.com/'/><author><name>Flying Monk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09694359187296960651</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Pic001.4.jpg'/></author><generator version='7.00' uri='http://www.blogger.com'>Blogger</generator><openSearch:totalResults>3</openSearch:totalResults><openSearch:startIndex>1</openSearch:startIndex><openSearch:itemsPerPage>100</openSearch:itemsPerPage><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29520539.post-115152611587330578</id><published>2006-06-29T04:11:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-06-30T01:46:31.670+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/CIMG1096.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 174px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 133px" height="148" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/CIMG1096.jpg" width="188" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/CIMG1095.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 179px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 116px" height="146" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/CIMG1095.jpg" width="217" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Twinkle&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;is verrrry smart &amp; gentle.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;He has been with me for the 7th year(1999~2006). Doris was the original &amp;amp; 1st owner. I was juz lucky&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;to be able to have&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffff00;"&gt;Twinkle&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;as a gift from Doris&lt;thank&gt;. "let's go..." once said!! ohh-oh...will raise his expectation to take a walk outside. Another thing about him is &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;FRUITS&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. Any fruits that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;is&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff00;"&gt;YELLOW &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;will get his attention. Except Durian. Shitsu/7 years old/ male. I think Doris who name him&lt;/span&gt; "&lt;span style="color:#ffff00;"&gt;Twinkle&lt;/span&gt;" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;is a great name. He's juz a sparky-shining dog. Very compose and very few words...ohh..I meant..."&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;b&lt;em&gt;ark&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;". Only when someone is home or visitors at the front of door, Twinkle will &lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#9999ff;"&gt;bark&lt;/span&gt; juz to get me or my wife's attention. So, all my neighbor's love him.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcccc;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#66ffff;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;color:#33ff33;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dog food&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;: I think is too expensive&lt;span style="color:#9999ff;"&gt;&lt;such&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;like&gt; in S'pore. I usually buy them in Japan for only S$30/8kg. can't believe right.&lt;my&gt; He juz love eating them. And it comes with choice of &lt;span style="font-family:verdana;color:#99ff99;"&gt;Fish, Chicken, Beef and all include Seaweed, Calcium, Milk, lastly best all all is it's effect of &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Odorless&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; coz' when it comes to his daily releases...(&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;poopoo&lt;/span&gt; &amp; &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;peepee&lt;/span&gt;)..&lt;daily&gt;..you really don't want to have smell all over your house.  &lt;daily&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29520539-115152611587330578?l=code2turbulence.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://code2turbulence.blogspot.com/feeds/115152611587330578/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29520539&amp;postID=115152611587330578' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29520539/posts/default/115152611587330578'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29520539/posts/default/115152611587330578'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://code2turbulence.blogspot.com/2006/06/twinkle-is-verrrry-smart-1st-owner.html' title=''/><author><name>Flying Monk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09694359187296960651</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Pic001.4.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29520539.post-115006672527422505</id><published>2006-06-12T06:20:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-06-29T04:53:50.016+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/somen.4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 121px" height="152" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/somen.4.jpg" width="300" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff9900;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;LUNCH : Eating Japanese "SouMen" &amp; "GyoZa"&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;homemade&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;It has a meaning for "SouMen"=Long Living, "GyoZa"=Wealth/Money.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Beef%20Tenderloin.6.jpg"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Beef%20Tenderloin.6.jpg"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 157px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 137px" height="126" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/Beef%20Tenderloin.3.jpg" width="170" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#3333ff;"&gt;EVENING : B'day celebration for my wife tonight.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Unfortunately o&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;ne of my favorite French Restaurant is closed on Sunday, so I suggested &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;to dine at &lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;70th&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; floor of &lt;span style="color:#ff9900;"&gt;Swissotel Stamford Singapore&lt;/span&gt;.

However, I somehow felt that the serving staffs were too 'stiff ' or 'serious' &amp;amp; thus make people feel that they lack friendliness, distance &amp;amp; cold. A generally &lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt;'lack of personal touch'&lt;/span&gt; in our service industry here. 17 years of service experience up in the 40,000 feet, I can quickily &lt;span style="color:#ff99ff;"&gt;'Sense'&lt;/span&gt; once entering into an atmosphere knowing it's friendly vs unfriendly. Words like: "how are you doing tonight..." , "I'll be around once you are ready..." , "I hope you have an enjoyable evening..." These are very &lt;em&gt;simple&lt;/em&gt; yet &lt;em&gt;powerful&lt;/em&gt; verbal techniques a service person can apply so to project to customers/prospects one precious message-"I/we Care !!"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;After dinner we took a stroll along the &lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Merlion Park&lt;/span&gt; with a wonderful view of Singapore River and finish our night....(of course NOT witnout..?#%xx.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29520539-115006672527422505?l=code2turbulence.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://code2turbulence.blogspot.com/feeds/115006672527422505/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29520539&amp;postID=115006672527422505' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29520539/posts/default/115006672527422505'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29520539/posts/default/115006672527422505'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://code2turbulence.blogspot.com/2006/06/lunch-eating-japanese-soumen-cold.html' title=''/><author><name>Flying Monk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09694359187296960651</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Pic001.4.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29520539.post-114995818714220176</id><published>2006-06-10T23:47:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2006-06-11T03:40:02.733+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Pic001.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 118px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px" height="235" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/Pic001.0.jpg" width="338" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Pic002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 121px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 82px" height="115" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/Pic002.jpg" width="210" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/1600/Pic001.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 69px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 60px" height="173" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1859/3147/320/Pic001.jpg" width="207" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My wife and I tried to make some '&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;SiaoLongPou&lt;/span&gt;' from 4pm til 6pm.
