What I'm up to, and some thoughts.

I thank god for all the good people in my life. And I pray that he'll continue to place good people in my life.

I had been busy with schoolwork and training. Doing my best for both is my objective, for the rest of this month and next month. Just did some revision on Managerial Economics and ESAP. Topics I've revised.

ME:

Chapter 7: Production, factor demand and costs

Chapter 8: Labour economics,

Chapter 11: Oligopoly (Cournot, Stackelberg and Monopolist models)

And a little bit on Chapter 1

ESAP:

Attitude and behavior

Gender in the workplace.

Prelims will finish before the tournament. And I'm trying to revise as much as I can and try to sit through the papers. Been training hard too.

I like to do what I like and am good at. So, when I'm very focused on my goal, I like people to understand that, that is my goal. So, if there's some accidents, rest assured it's not what I've meant for it to. You just know you have to execute that kick, when there's an opportunity.

How to become a champion? You have to have good instructors, inspiration, passion and strong desire to win in you. Not to forget, clocking hours and hours of arduous training. Want to be better? You just have to train with people who are better.

Training is good. You tune your skills, do what you love and also know that you've taken care of your well being when you sweat it all out. I absolutely like being in an environment that is positive and supportive.

When I don't talk, it's either I'm very focused on the task ahead, or I'm in a slightly defensive mode. I appreciate people who know that. Other than that, I'm very happy if I have something to share.

Happy couples have the capability to do small little things for each other, and enjoying the process of being close to each other. It's really not overly fancy PDA stuffs. And I think that's a learning point for myself. According to John Grey, women keep scores this way: a small thing scores a point and a big thing scores another point. So do many small things, score many points. Just kidding. But yea, I think it's an important ingredient. No need for greater elaboration, and I am really happy to see these qualities.

Romance can be easy. A few candles from IKEA, some food/home cooked food, little written notes (what's more unique than your own hand writing?), and a nice quiet big place. And of course, garnishing up a little on special occasions makes great bonuses.

I think chivalry is alive. You just have to search and observe.
