And slowly I remembered that when I was young (looking at the fact the movie was released in 1997, I was just 9 years old then), I watched this Cinderella movie which Brandy was the main actress.<br />

<br />
So I went searching in Youtube for this movie, with the hope someone shared the full movie. Indeed yes, there was a fella who shared the movie on Youtube, and thus I downloaded it. To my amaze, Whitney Houston was the Fairy God Mother, and Whoopi Goldberg was the Queen of the Prince. And, the musical was written by Rodgers & Hammerstein (the same composers for the epic Sound of Music & The Kind & I)!!!! No wonder I'd loved the movie when I was young.<br />
<br />
The movie was such and inspiration and I was left even more inspired with Whitey's words, "Cinderella, if you are going to get out from here, you will have to do it yourself!". <br />
<br />
Looks like we need a lil fairy tale every now and then to remind us some fundamental life rules.

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OL1iqYoLQkc/U8CpqDRf4XI/AAAAAAAACcs/s4sr4L_nhWE/s1600/Validation.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OL1iqYoLQkc/U8CpqDRf4XI/AAAAAAAACcs/s4sr4L_nhWE/s1600/Validation.png" height="272" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It has been quite a while since I last posted anything here. Have been quite busy I have to admit, but less stress and definitely I had more time for myself compared to the same period last year. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To tell you the truth, I have not touched (or finished) a book in the first half of this year. Reading was something that I had to gave up for some reasons that I don't even know until now. So, to get my "spiritual" food, I turned to my iPhone. Owh yeah, I bought my new iPhone about 2 months ago - finally.... Browsing through Youtube and searching for the Renaissance Woman herself, Oprah, I always find myself eager to listen to her and learning something new from her all the time. Last week, I learned about <i><b>validation</b></i>. She said that after each interview she had, from a murderer till Beyonce herself, they would ask Oprah, "How did I do?", "Was that OK?"...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Same goes to myself. Constantly, and at times whether I did know it or not, I am consistently seeking validation from others. At times I can be easily ignored by others, as if I am a piece of transparent sheet of glass. I need more than that, and I do think I deserve more than that. If that person could not provide me with such validation, then I decided that I better move on. What they should had better understood is the 3rd law of motion - with every force, there will be an equal and opposite force in return. If you do not validate me, I am done with you!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While writing this, I am (still) not sure whether can I in return validate myself. For instance like taking better care of myself, eating on time, having a break for myself... Is that validation? Or does this kinda validation still requires from someone's else perspective?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My 2 cents on this matter, take good care of yourself first. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jwE7DB_PH8Q/U23h7t4Av4I/AAAAAAAACbw/7M8UcJ4kky0/s1600/image1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jwE7DB_PH8Q/U23h7t4Av4I/AAAAAAAACbw/7M8UcJ4kky0/s1600/image1.png" height="400" width="225" /></a></div>
<br />
Well you see, (and this is proven scientifically as well) our brain somehow tends to perceive (and remember) more negative inclined matters. Therefore, we will have to keep on put in the "positive" reminders in ourselves before the negativity kills us from within. What we have not done enough is to infuse positivity in ourselves in our daily life.<br />
<br />
By following @LifeLimits, only positive loaded messages and reminders (and even photos) are being constantly shared in the timeline (is that what you call them in Twitter??). So when you (or rather myself) are feeling like the whole world is against us and we do not have anything with ourselves to fight that negativity, these simple messages would somehow help. Believe me, I don't know the kinetics on how it works, but it does!<br />

<br />
That little flower in the midst of concrete pavement had pulled me out from negativity last Monday, and I reminded myself to stay positive and happy through out the whole week, of which I did.<br />
<br />
Try it, and make a difference today!<br />

<br />
Right after CNY, I had the busiest time of my career. Things were piling up (not that I did not do my job well enough) and meetings after meetings just keeps on calling here and there.<br />
<br />
I found that when my schedule is jammed packed, my emotions at times get carried away too. Heading to Kuantan in a bit. Hopefully things will be better when I am back.<br />
<br />
Cheerios! <br />

There are only a handful of duets in the world that is considered great, and this is definitely one of them - flawless. And truly said (or sung)...almost is NEVER enough. <br />
<br />

The reason for me kinda "abandoning" my own blog was because I'd always wanted to change the blog's header photo and then start blogging fresh. But I'm that busy and never had the time to take photo and replace that header. Soon perhaps... once I had the time.<br />
<br />
So this is just something that I wanted to write because suddenly I've thought of it, and managed to share the idea with one of my colleague (who is a Muslim).<br />
<br />
We were talking about God, and how a close friend of mine would always pray for my success in uni days during Friday prayers, especially during exams. And I always reciprocate by saying, "Whatever you prayed for me, I'm praying equally the same if not more for you. At the end of the day, the God you pray to, is the same God that I am praying".<br />
<br />
Quickly I explained to my colleague, I said its like going to KLCC from Penang. Some may opt to take flight (<b><span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>#PrayForMH370</i></span></b>), some may drive through the highway, some stopped at Taiping and took the old road to KL. These different routes are what I call "religions", whereas the ultimate goal of reaching KLCC is God. So you see, our destiny is the same, just that our way to our destiny is different.<br />
<br />
Ah-ha! What a day... It was lovely to get such an enlightenment in the midst of a normal workday.<br />
<br />

<br />
Yes, I am still alive, just a bit busy. Will be back posting my nonsense very soon. So do stay tuned. KELVINhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03768900390892379988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161159846047976292.post-72683790303247296952014-01-03T13:40:00.001+08:002014-01-03T13:40:52.328+08:00Savings<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'd once saw a colleague of mine keeping track of his daily expenses in a spreadsheet and when questioned why did he do so, he simply replied, "I'm gonna get married in 2 years' time. So I better watch my expenses and save for the wedding...". And so he did got married 2 years after that.</div>
<br />
Now I know a friend of mine is gonna kill me when I say this. But honestly I've got no saving plans in place after 3 years plus of working. (Please don't come offering me whatever saving plans you have, seriously pleaseeee!). Savings for me has been like, if I have extra, then I will save. I've never shopped with a shopping list. I eat like a king and I opt to eat out on weekends.<br />
<br />
While many is making comments (and a huge hu-ha) out of the rising cost of living, I saw this particular article on the paper today.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wWZQdCNpI90/UsZMnqP56II/AAAAAAAACZA/1DWW5ukRxms/s1600/IMG-20140103-01923.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wWZQdCNpI90/UsZMnqP56II/AAAAAAAACZA/1DWW5ukRxms/s400/IMG-20140103-01923.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
And my mum was telling us about the story of how she fed the family with vegetables she grown in the backyard (or rather the garden). Now all the "greens" you see in the below photo are edible yea...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ri31kwEnO8w/UsZM5ynvkAI/AAAAAAAACZI/cvU93hbBy9E/s1600/IMG-20140101-01911.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ri31kwEnO8w/UsZM5ynvkAI/AAAAAAAACZI/cvU93hbBy9E/s400/IMG-20140101-01911.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
So what should I do? Well for a start, I've increased my air-conditioning to 20 degrees Celsius and instead of shutting off at 3 AM, now its 2AM. What's next? God knows...<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
January – Hospitalized?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Indeed it was a 4-days bed ridden. Herpes simplex – that was
the name of the pain I had and amazingly, there were no cure to it. Root cause,
overstressed and lack of rest. Did I mention that was the first time I’ve got
myself hospitalized? What a way to usher in 2013. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
February – Chinese New Year </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This would be a life lesson for all. Remember how difficult
was it for me (and my brother) to get a painter a week before Chinese New Year
and finally we decided to put our hands into good use? This is a great story to
tell everyone that when others say no, we say yes! Great things happen when you
say YES!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
March – When a Crisis Became an Opportunity</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If there is one thing I’ve learned from my ex-boss, it would
be this. While there was a huge feud between him and another colleague of mine,
I had the opportunity to refuel a submarine. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bidan terjun</i> at its best!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
April – The Transfer “Drama”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
April was such a painful month. There were so much of
uncertainties and not knowing where will the road leads me. The end of the
drama, well, I am still around somehow. Worthless drama after all.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
May – The Emperor Left </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And I wrote a poem for him despite what he has done to me –
The Old Oak Tree. That much of a relief, I found myself slowly healing in the
months to come. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
June – Roti John Retailer.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Totally random, it was rather
just go and kill it! Or this new jargon that I’ve learned, Run and Gun. Turned
out to be pure joy and an experience that will never duplicate itself ever
again. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
August – Canon EOS 60D </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I was shocked to learn that my best <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">jimui</i>, Mak Teh only came to know yesterday that I’ve bought this
new wife of mine. Well, this would be the best bought gift for myself till
date. When clarity came into the mind, I bought a camera!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
September - OZ Called Again!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I woke up one fine Saturday and could remember vividly how
wonderful Australia was during my last stay there in 2007. I was then ‘rewarded’
a 5 days work-vacation to Melbourne, Australia. Dreams do come true, have
faith! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
October – Joe</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The world finally knew who Joe is! Its rather cute when I have
an alter-ego for myself as I see it as an escape en route for my emo-ness at
times. Joe is fierce!!!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
November – The Busiest Month of The Year</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yes, I became an event planner (and interior designer too!).
I’ve stayed in Langkawi for a week to get things done and it was the best
experience one could get out of work! That was when I realized how much
rewarding it was and how appreciative I should to what I’ve got. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
December – Change, Forgiving and The Art of Letting Go</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Its rather sad that at this time of the year, I finally came
to know that “When people show you who they are, believe them!” – wise words
from Maya Angelou. If they are unkind, don’t find reasons to prove that they
are kind. If they are ignorant, do not find reasons to say they are just being
youthful. They are already sending off signs that they are who they are. I am
left clueless and I felt I no longer know who that person is. Confused… </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Perhaps 2014 bring a clearer envisioned year. Auld Lang Syne
peeps!</div>

It resembles Beyonce's Standing In The Sun but Yuna did hers way better than Queen Bey this time. Yuna describes it as a mix of Mary Poppins meets Coldplay and I couldn't agree more!<br />

<br />
So this company of mine decided to hold a team building at this theme park. Only difference is, this team park is on top of trees instead of the normal joyride and water pools. Let me just include this, THANK GOD I brought my camera and I didn't had to climb those trees. Imagine me climbing a coconut tree??? What a sight, what a sight...!<br />
<br />
So since I was the official cameraman (the 2nd cameraman in fact), so don't expect lots of my own photos here.<br />

Upon adjusting the white and color grid balance, the pictures turned out damn flyyyy!!!KELVINhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03768900390892379988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161159846047976292.post-80560311462651724732013-12-15T19:26:00.000+08:002013-12-15T19:26:04.034+08:00The Murphy's Law<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well I've definitely heard of the name of this Law, but I could not recall what exactly this Law meant. All I could remember vividly was Le Chatelier's Principals. But little do we know, these 2 laws can be used to explain life and our actions. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today we commissioned a rather important project in my workplace, and thus, I've been working non-stop since last Friday. My boss gave me a piece of advice that was rather chemistry and stochastic, "Kelv, remember the Murphy's Law". I nodded and smile, but I couldn't recall at all what did that meant! Now listen carefully, I am not gonna repeat myself. Here goes...</div>
<br />
<b>Lesson 1.0 - Murphy's Law</b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YfJf1xbztlk/Uq2OxIexr2I/AAAAAAAACUw/2OhuzBSWIBE/s1600/murphyslaw_front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="390" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YfJf1xbztlk/Uq2OxIexr2I/AAAAAAAACUw/2OhuzBSWIBE/s400/murphyslaw_front.jpg" width="400" /></a></b></div>
<br />
If you feel that something is gonna go wrong, that means it will definitely go WRONG! There is always a reason why your instincts are communicating to you.<br />
<br />
<b><i>Example:</i></b> I somehow felt that the project commissioning at my workplace was done rather in a hurry, and I believe there must be some parts or equipments that may fail. Thus, I instructed for a trial load the night before the commissioning. Turned out, I was right! Equipment failure here and there. Thank God we managed to identify it early, and got it rectified immediately. And thus, it was a flawless operations today during the actual commissioning. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Lesson 2.0 - Le Chatelier's Principles </b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nhbvXOjjGu4/Uq2OzX6T9xI/AAAAAAAACU4/IlwVfTTh2qY/s1600/Le+Chatelier.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nhbvXOjjGu4/Uq2OzX6T9xI/AAAAAAAACU4/IlwVfTTh2qY/s1600/Le+Chatelier.gif" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Also known as the equilibrium principle, it can be simply explained as if you don't move something out, nothing much (or more) will be produced until there is this change. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><b>Example:</b></i> I found out that someone is unhappy about me, and unfortunately that person choose to share about this in social medium, of which I had excess to as well. So much of a smart Alex!!! I was utterly pissed and the first reaction I had was that I wanted was a revenge. But then I felt so emotionally unstable and disturbed. Finally it took a person (who is by the way younger than me) to teach me to just <b><span style="color: blue;">let it go</span></b>. When I forgive, then I forget, I became happier instantly and really no longer mind what that person has to say about me. Chapter closed. When you moved on, thing gets better. </div>
<br />
Life class lessons indeed!<br />

<br />
This song was originally sung as a duet by Daniel Merriweather and Adele, but the version by Celine is simply magnificent. It a rather dark, gloomy and sad song (just like one of typical Adele's) but you just can't deny the powerful vocals of Celine just made this song to die for.<br />
<br />
Water and a flame...i rather be the water. <br />

But, I had a revelation last week about this quote. All these while, I thought I knew what this quote was about, but the fact was that I didn't.<br />
<br />
Part of us, we really want others to behave and be a certain way that we assume is right. But can you influence and somehow make them change, just because you thought its the "right" way of being? Answer is, no you can't. No, NO, NO!<br />
<br />
Why should you be worried about what others are, when the only thing you should be worried is yourself (or rather myself).<br />
<br />
It was rather enlightening, and I learned to take it as it is. With this I forgive, and forget.<br />

When I was cruising around the Langkawi Island, I overheard this song on the radio and it immediately captured my attention. The lyrics were so pure and undeniably true!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JVdGNPvU6Kk/Uo1YIi9FTCI/AAAAAAAACTk/WFPLT-dh46k/s1600/MusicVideos_PassengerLetHerGo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JVdGNPvU6Kk/Uo1YIi9FTCI/AAAAAAAACTk/WFPLT-dh46k/s400/MusicVideos_PassengerLetHerGo.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<i>Well you only need the light when it's burning low
<br />Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
<br />Only know you love her when you let her go
<br />Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
<br />Only hate the road when you're missing home
<br />Only know you love her when you let her go
<br />And you let her go...</i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I supposed the message of this song is just to be grateful and appreciative of what you have with you now. <i> </i>
</div>

Just came back from a week's work visit to Langkawi Island. It was rather a blessing in disguise in a way. We lived in a Malay villa beside the lush green paddy field, quiet and filled with chirping of birds in the morning. <br />

And The Busiest Month of The Year Goes To...NOVEMBER!<br />

I am indeed a believer.<br />
<br />
Well it was rather difficult this time around as Deepavali and All Souls coincide on the same day. So the plan was, let's settle the Deepavali prayers at home early in the morning, and move to Penang Island for All Souls' Blessing of the Tomb by 10 a.m.. For the interest of those who are not aware of All Souls, its a day to visit the tomb of our loved ones to say prayers and be thankful of their love and presence. Its just similar to Qin Ming.<br />
<br />
So...the drama (and works) begins. <br />
<br />

There was this award that I had to represent my company to receive, and of all places, they organized it on the cruise ship - Libra Star Cruise by Genting World. It was a mere 3 hours session but we did explored the rest of the 10 floors cruise ship. One word - fantastic!<br />

What a week!KELVINhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03768900390892379988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161159846047976292.post-8082678920457427612013-10-29T20:45:00.003+08:002013-10-29T20:45:49.713+08:00Emo Nite OutNow yesterday (night) was kinda weird. I went back home quite early, around 9PM (its considered early for me since for the past 6 days I've been sleeping in my office) and I shut off my laptop and tv and 'try' to sleep. Let me repeat, "TRY". And that was about 10 PM. <br />
<br />
But I just couldn't! Insomnia.... (or its just too early). <br />
<br />
Then I reached for my BB and played a few songs from my playlist. The next thing I knew, I was having this huge emo breakdown!<br />
<br />
It all started with this song:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yURg65tIlSk/Um-tYfjZNuI/AAAAAAAACOI/X1H2ypgCpGM/s1600/911.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="357" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yURg65tIlSk/Um-tYfjZNuI/AAAAAAAACOI/X1H2ypgCpGM/s400/911.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Then with this duet...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uFAkc46vUnM/Um-tacff9RI/AAAAAAAACOU/W7gNKNFFjbo/s1600/I_Hate_You_Then_I_Love_You.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="350" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uFAkc46vUnM/Um-tacff9RI/AAAAAAAACOU/W7gNKNFFjbo/s400/I_Hate_You_Then_I_Love_You.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
When I reached the bridge of this song, I was already in tears...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MaeLD_QQxPw/Um-tZand4HI/AAAAAAAACOQ/wpKnszk_8S0/s1600/altthumb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MaeLD_QQxPw/Um-tZand4HI/AAAAAAAACOQ/wpKnszk_8S0/s400/altthumb.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
One word - GILA!!!!!<br />
<br />
So in order to resonate the emo-nite-out yesterday, I tried to be emo lah today. Now tell me seriously, don't I really looked slimmer? I mean I kinda felt it you know...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UYDTuWwTHZw/Um-q0DPInuI/AAAAAAAACN8/7mhG_0qD-I4/s1600/1383022096491.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UYDTuWwTHZw/Um-q0DPInuI/AAAAAAAACN8/7mhG_0qD-I4/s400/1383022096491.jpeg" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
Ok, let it be! Slim or not, I am still the same me. Emo! EMO! EMO!!!<br />

And believe me, its a gateway to amazing conversation after that.<br />
<br />
Look, I am working 6 days, 6 nights starting from yesterday till this Sunday and obviously I am dead tired. But I carefully realized that people are trying to start a conversation with me, but I was too "occupied" to response. Thus I quickly noticed that they are refraining from myself. But when I approached them and started a fresh sentence, things got better (eventually) or shall I say, BACK TO NORMAL.<br />
<br />
Try it! Amazing things happen when you say YES!KELVINhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03768900390892379988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161159846047976292.post-29831394079632643362013-10-16T20:18:00.000+08:002013-10-16T20:18:22.348+08:00Loved Me Back To LifeYou would probably know by now that I am a great of Celine Dion.

When I watched the making of this song, I suddenly realized what was the message behind this song. Its about a person in coma, but woke up in the end thanks to the love that person felt emancipating from so many others. <br />
<br />
Now believe me, this album is going to be Grammy-worthy. Get a copy and indulge yourself to the "new" Celine's way of singing. Its current, fresh and has all the long bars of vocals that we are dying for. Simply <span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="fr"><span class="hps"><i>magnifique</i>! </span></span>KELVINhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03768900390892379988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161159846047976292.post-80126440661825979492013-10-14T17:31:00.002+08:002013-10-14T17:31:22.738+08:00Who is Joe?Well, Joe is Kelvin's alter ego. Just like Beyonce's alter ego is Sasha Fierce. So the normal "engineer" you see working is actually Kelvin, and the fierce photos of what looks like Kelvin is actually Joe.<br />
<br />
Now, this is Joe...<br />

Joe is stunning, confident, successful, cheerful and like what some would say, "He's HOT!".<br />
<br />
This, poor thing on the other hand is Kelvin.<br />

Kelvin is rather quiet, workaholic and does not gives a sh*t on his appearances, AT ALL! He can be at times seen as sloop-ish and untidy. But then again, he is a qualified Chemical Engineer working with the national oil company!!!<br />
<br />
So Kelvin and Joe goes hand-in-hand. You can't have Kelvin without Joe, nor having Joe with Kelvin would be too bootylicious!<br />
<br />
Hahaha... jokes aside, but really I am better known as Joe (or Chow or Choe) by most of my close relatives. This is how it happened. You see, when a baby is born, the typical Chinese parents don't get to choose their baby's name as they wished. They would have to consult someone from the temple to pick the right name for their baby. So the "temple" gave two picks for my parents... Chow and Liang.<br />
<br />
My mum straightaway agreed with Chow, hence the complete (and looooong) name would be <b>Kelvin Yew Kean Chow</b>. But when they presented this name to my great-grandmother, she said, "Are you guys crazy? He would be teased 'Kin Cheow' from his friends when he grow up!!!" Kin Cheow in Hokkien simply meant BANANA. Thanks great-grandma!<br />
<br />

And thus Madam Lim and Mr. Yew reselected the name, <b>Kelvin Yew Kean Liang</b> for me. But then the weird thing is that, my close family members still recognizes me as Joe, till date! Weird right? Why name someone when you can't call them using their real name?<br />
<br />
So long story short, yes, I am a person with multiple names. Call me what you want, I'll still answer with a smile.

That also simply means that I am on strict vegetarian diet, and yes, the whole world should know! At least Nourish Organic USA acknowledged my effort of being vegan for 9 days...<br />

<br />
Part of the strict vegetarian diet, one is supposed to be "holy". But for the case of me, well, let's give it a try next year perhaps! LOL!<br />
<br />
Its an annual event where these peeps go on vow to be vegan and join the piercing act, or rather mutilation. Scary, but yet exciting to watch!<br />
