6 Consecutive Day & Nites of non-stop work!!

Yes!! i've broke my previous record of 4 consecutive day & nite of work rush! this week, I've clocked 6 days & 6 nites of work. Sleeping less than 20 hrs in 6 days. finally cleared all on hand orders & i can foresee more embroidery work will be coming in this weekend!!

This afternoon, nearly witness a serious accident at Balestier Exit. This irresponsible driver turning into the main rd, not giving way to the main road traffic. Luckily the cement truck driver brake is working in good condition, if not that irresponsible driver's face will be appearing on the Obituary Section tmr morning. Just 1 sec, if the cement truck driver stamp on the brake 1 sec slower, that idiot would be DEAD!! I'm sure his balls had shrink to peanuts.


Talked to lotsa ppl today!!

Went to my Cloth Supplier, Hock Joo @ Textile Ctr. Spoke to one of the staff there & found this young chap is very knowledgeable in the Embroidery & Garment Industry!! In 15 mins, we talked about the Greatest Garments & Embroidery Firms in Singapore. He even knew the Big Towkays in many of my Garment Companies. OMG.. I must work harder!! really hope to be able to talk to these big shots one day!!

Str8 after getting all my materials, I've proceed down to Toyogo Warehse @ Toa Payoh again. Yes, AGAIN!! i seriously enjoy shopping for plastic stuff there. everything is super cheap & durable!! they have got little toolbox to gigantic Rubbish Bins.. Grab my stuff & best thing is queue is always very short, so you don't have to wait!! after you have paid for your stuff, there will be this friendly uncle transporting your purchase to your car!! BEST SERVICE :) Love it!!

While walking over to the car, I've commented to the uncle, "Uncle, this laundry shop beside Toyogo is like Freaking Damn Big* lor!! They have been here for very long liao ah??" Uncle told me, last time they only operate as a little HDB Shop, Suddenly grow until so big!! now operating 24/7 non stop!! They got their own container trucks to transport their orders. they got hotels contracts!! very power!!

* Freaking Damn Big = Est. Size of 1 football field!!

This is just 1 part of the table!! he have completed the entired table this afternoon!!
Beautiful Piece of ART!! Priceless!!


Was invited to Zihua's son 1st month party :)


Have not seen Zihua for more than 6 years!! Sharon, holding baby, face nv change since the 1st time i've met her in poly. Pretty Girl!! Don't see her cute cute, she's now a very successful entrepreneur in the F&B industry!!

I still can rmb during our poly days.. i'll play games & do nothing everyday. Sharon will rush to work str8 after school everyday. she worked & paid for her daily expenses & tuition fees. I was still enjoying pocket $$ back den.

Sharon is super smart lor!! She nv had time to do tutorials & study @ home. All she needs is 15 mins before gng into the examination hall. She will flip thru the text books quietly for 15mins & have her breakfast & go for exams. thats all she needed!! Super memory!! & she will score A's!!!

I have so much time, did all the tutorials that i was told to do, but i'll still fail in tests & exams

Sometime I really wishes I can be as smart as Sharon. Smart ppl save lotsa time in the things they do. They do not make much mistakes, & can talk in a way that most ppl can understand very easily!! Really wish 1 day my brain can wake up & become smarter.

The most amazing thing abt Sharon is that she no need to slp 1!! Last time i tot my poly buddy, Keng Yao, was bullshitting to me. later on, i found out by myself, Sharon can work 2-3 days non stop, & when you look @ her, she's always so fresh & alert!! Really no need to slp 1!! RESPECT her!! Although i've cleared my Hellweek during National Service, but when i compared myself to her, my mental strength is still too weak..

Gonna let Zihua rest for 2 more months before we hold another poly gathering @ Sharon's Pub. Hopefully, by then, there will be more ppl joining us :)

Tammy Tay is on Today Online!!




Tammy's mother, Ms Tracy Tack, told Today On Sunday: "Every day, she would come back and tell me, 'Mummy, I didn't learn anything from school today'."


Is it realistic to expect to achieve that with only O-level qualifications? "Yes," she replies. "In this business, you don't really need education; you just need the right eye for clothes and a good network. I don't think O levels or having a degree plays a part whatsoever."

RESPECT Her!!

Give me Motivation to work harder :)


Not Everyone likes studies!! Also not everyone with good grades can achieve success in life!


This always reminds me of JJ Lin Jun Jie's Song!! "Hui Du Shu"

In the lyrics it says,"Not everyone can do well in studies, can't do well in school doesn't mean One will lose in Life!!" I specially love this verse!!

JJ is earning over USD$12millions/yr!!

Juz bought himself a Ferrari earlier this year :)


Moral of the Story "One must LOVE what he/she is doing in order to achieve success in life!"

Voluntary Street Fighters

It's a very common thing to see fights happening along Transit Road. Cos there is a very famous Tattoo shop here!! some ppl seriously come for tattoo.. some ppl come for chat with the tattoo shop uncle (usually after they have finished serving their jail term), & some come just to find fights.

Today's fight is as usual.. 1 group of young Indian Guys VS 1 group of Old Indian Uncles. The uncles won again :) Fighting at transit road requires experiences. the more you fight, the faster you can bring your opponents down.

The younger guys obviously had taken pills & alcohol. out of 3 men, 2 was behaving crazily.. shouting at everyone, finding trouble..

Older uncles just sat quietly observing the kids.

after est. 1 hr, the younger guys were getting more & more rowdy. wanting to act as if they are the fiercest Kids with little or no tattoos.

I walked past them to buy some bread from 7Eleven. David, The Tattoo Shop Uncle, looked @ me & shook his head. signalling to me something was abt to happen..

Went back to my shop, prepared my coffee & get ready for the show.

Uncle David str8 pull down his shop shuttle & left hurriedly.

in less than 10 sec, 1 man was down on the ground. 3 uncles were wacking 1 younger kid in his face non stop!! BLOOD was all over his face & t-shirt. He was whining in pain & his "Buddies" disappeared far away..

Moral of the story, "Don't make too much noise along transit road."

These Old Uncles are Professional Street Fighters. They are usually House Mover or Fruits & Vegetable wholesalers. All of them have got Super Strong arms & bodies, dun scare of pain & very quiet ppl.

So if you think you are very pro in street fighting, you can come & try PK with these uncles. Their strategy will be no matter how many ppl come fight with them, these uncles will always combine forces to wack their opponent 1 by 1.

It's damn scary when you see 3 super strong uncles wacking 1 medium built guy until blood comes out. The victim's buddies disappear for a reason. the uncles dun run or chase ppl, but if you kena caught by 1 uncle, all 3 will start wacking you @ the same time.

Today's fight is very objective orientated. They just want to wack the younger kids, nv destroy any rubbish bins, table or chairs.

Our New Heat Press Auto Clam
coming with the Roland cutter mid of Aug 2011!

Now I'm looking fwd to Aug 2011!! After practising "Law of Attraction' for the past 3 years, i can see many things are starting to change rapidly in my life! I really hope friends & relatives whom i talked to can start believing in what i've discovered 3 yrs ago.

I was like trying really hard to explain to them what i discovered back den, but everyone was giving me the "This Guy has gone INSANE" look. whr got so good thing in the world?!? just think & dream, things will happen.. Dream on lah Kid!!

Relatives were telling my parents, " hey your son is doing such useless stuff?!? ask him go find a proper job lah, don't waste time.. Useless.. Good for nothing!!

Some even told me str8 in my face,"you still young, must get out & Piah.. You do these type of things will never bring you anywhr.. wasting your time. how much can you earn making these little cloth patches?!? 50cents?? $1?? must go sell hse, sell insurarnce den got future.."

No worries, I'm a weird kid.. when ppl tell me such things, i'll get pretty excited :) My eyes will grow bigger & become super awake!! i love it when ppl look down on me.. their words will bring me more energy to move fwd & grow stronger even faster!! If my uncle & cousin is reading these, i'm sure they know who they are!! i wanna thank them for their 'KIND' words that bring me here!! & continue to bring me further!!

I'm saving up for my 1st factory in the north side of Singapore, probably yishun or woodlands area. nt so fast, but i'm sure it will happen in yrs to come!! No worries, even when i open factory, i also will not invite YOU (my uncle & cousin) to see, i still prefer you to rmb me as a Useless, Good for Nothing SON.

& I'll always rmb them as the most successful ppl in our family tree :) ALWAYS!!
