Take it slow sometimes

Actually if I took the challenge, I could have earn more than I have, but I did not. Because the whole project isn’t worth that much of my time. In fact, those big project normally drag at least 3 to 6 months long before completion. I might tied myself with the project.

Working

There were a few project request about sell textbooks online. That would require a big database and some other programming language to help ease the whole job. Imagine how long would it take or even just to coordinate with other programmers.

Unlike Amazon, where sellers can upload their books. Those request are from book store, wanting to ease their job and kick some salesmen off (I guess). My wife and I always takes thing easily. We would rather take on all small projects and complete in short time flame. Instead of taking the large one and tied with the project itself.

Yet again, we went outstation together, taking work slowly and easily. This time to Kuching, for passport renewal, since only Kuching has consulant of Indonesia in the whole Sarawak, sigh…

Busily-poor group

Today I met up with a long lost friend in a mall, after a few casual conversation, he asked me if I am one of the “busily-poor group” of people. That mean, am I working too much and early too little to even enjoy my life. Though sometimes I need detox treatment after a few days rush of project, but it doesn’t make me a zombie after all. I still get my time and enjoy my life.

Beach

Speaking of which, I do have the “overly” working experience, and that is a real pain in the ass. Constipation tend to happen to me when I have things to rush on, or, haven’t finish a project when the deadline is near. Unless, I have everything settled down and ready for the deadline.

Working

In my field, everything seems to be unpredictable. Well, to be honest, it was they who likes to work last minute and tend to think I could follow up with them.

I’ve lieterally tried thousand of detox treatment since my university life. But none seems to be too useful, beside a good amount of fruit.

Maybe I need to order my wife to get fruit for me from time to time on daily basis.

It’s all about business

I just came back from outstation, it’s been a hectic week for me, I took flight, lorry and boat back and forth to a location. All due to a business I’m venturing months ago, and I am quite regret with some of the decisions I’ve made back then.

Don’t be hesitating with money

MoneyWe don’t greed and go into corruption, that’s all. The rest is not greed, but a compulsory action to earn as much money as possible. Due to the respect and hesitating when dealing with money I give a step back and ended up where I am today… Tired!

Don’t get too close with sub-constractor

Sub ContractorIt is business, there won’t and hardly be any relationship happen in between. Due to my human nature, I tend to take everyone nicely and be-friended with. I took the very wrong step by joining him to venture together, making me earning a lot less than I expected.

It is just business

BusinessIn a World of business, they are mean. As mean as a cold blooded crocodile. No one will come forward and send you some money if you don’t push yourself up a bit to get it. Make sure you know where you are and how much you worth, period!

Time for bed, tomorrow another day… But this time, in a field I’m more confident at… Web :)

Santa Claus is near?

I don’t understand, some country around the planet starts selling stuff for…. Christmas. I find handprint christmas stockings are available right now, it is way too early if you ask me.

Chnristmas

This reminds me about gift I received and given out.

Coming from a typical Asian family, I reckon, we don’t normally send gift or even celebrate Christmas that much. As a Christian, the most we do, is just a dinner together, no present involved.

Well, since I just created my own family, I think it is time to bring in some western culture into the long-live Asian in me :) Christmas? Well, let’s make it big this year…

Branding and business

Both branding and business always linked together, they somehow have the relationship together. Even those businesses that did not care much about branding, somehow, will create one for their customers sooner or later.

Branding

Recently, my old friend asked me to work on a branding for his business. Of course I am happy to take the challenge, it was my field years ago, but to pick it up, I thought it would be easy.

He listed a few things for me, from logo, to t-shirt to custom stationary and so on. My close partner who happen to be in branding field too, however, felt uncomfortable with it.

Well, nevertheless, we both agreed to reject this project (sound like I am not struggling for more jobs :P ) and focus solely on WordPress development at the moment. Seeing that we have been spending times and money on some advertisement, promotion and training. Hell we better focus on what we felt more confident and comfortable with.

Quick update:
Lens Mug

I found Lens Mug, I’ve been wanting some custom mugs for myself, especially those with ideas on it.
