From past one week PS going thru lower end of sinusoidal wave........

1) meet an accident PS hit ppl car while parking at chicago fire restaurant folsom : (
That time PS very tired as everyday go for training from early morning till at >6PM thus when parking time not realize that PS so close to other car suddenly PS heard @#$%^ ops.......
First thing to do when PS realise PS hit ppl car sure run la(malaysia style :-p) but after think PS finally decide to drop a note to the owner to appologize and provide them PS car plat number and hertz contact so that they can claim the loss from hertz.
PS feel great as PS did the right thing.

Still hope by DEC30 PS able to find badge else PS might need to submit form to get new badge and fine RM50 : (


3)Life mess up with new Test program implementation
Early this week PS have new Test program from folsom division, PS is very confident with the new TP end up data show that it din log some parameter correctly then only find out all the problem is caused by one stupid command in the TP grrrrr!!!! (-1)
Due to this incorrect datalog, PS need to instruct ppl stop running the lots : (

Frog under well

A frog who live at well for decades he really enjoy his life there however he always wondering how outside world look until one day he meet Mr turtle. Mr turtle told him that sea is somewhere nice where he can find many exciting thing there which he cant find at well. After heard comment from Mr turtle, Mr frog decide to leave well and travel to sea to see outside world.

Mr Frog start his journey, after go thru all the hard time at last Mr frog reach sea but he found that actually sea is not the place which suitable for him as the water nutrien is damaging his skin.
After long process only Mr frog realize that the most suitable habitat from him is the well thus he travel back to well and live life happily there.

When PS read this story, PS think it simple and easy but yet it very meaningful.
Why PS said that???
Previously PS act like MR frog keep on wondering how outside world is and forget to appreciate what PS had when PS get what she want and that time only PS realize PS already lost something that is really precious to PS(well). PS is not lucky like Mr frog able to go back well and life there happily what PS can do now is appreciate what PS have now : )

Life is a journey where we gain all the experience. We might fall down but as long we never give up and continue trying for sure we can find the beauty of life ; )
Across time experience will help a person to become mature and wise and memory is the one who enlight our life.

Remember to appreciate what we have now : )
Make sure no regret in future : )

If life gives you a lemon, make lemonade

A water bearer in China had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the pots had a crack in it, while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water. At the end of the long walk from the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.
For a full two years this went on daily, with the bearer delivering only one and a half pots full of water to his house.
Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments, perfect for which it was made.
But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, & miserable that it was able to accomplish only half of what it had been made to do.
After 2 years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream. "I am ashamed of myself, and because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house."
The bearer said to the pot, "Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side of the path, but not on the other pot's side?
That's because I have always known about your flaw, and I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you've watered them.
For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the way you are, there would not be this beauty to grace the house"
Moral: Each of us has our own unique flaws. We're all cracked pots. But it's the cracks and flaws we each have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding. You've just got to take each person for what they are, and look for the good in them.
