Focus

If you chase two rabbits, both will escape

-Unknown author, from my motivation corner 

 

It keeps reminding me that I need to focus. Don't be so greedy. So, just like they said we cannot serve two masters. Only one. We have to pick a stand. Whichever lies the best. 

 

How to stand focused? Simple. Do one thing at a time. Don’t be greedy.

For the first time in Malaysia, the first blog ads community Nuffnang organized an outing for bloggers as most of us familiar with, the screening of the Pirates of the Caribbean 3 – At World’s End at the Cathay Cineplex Damansara. It turned out to be a great success with the appearance of those celebrity bloggers such as PaulTan, Suanie, ShaolinTiger, FireAngel, Rojaks, KidChan – The Wedding Photographer, Kimberychun, Zewt, and Jolene to name a few. Thanks & Kudos to Boss Stewie from Nuffnang for the free tickets and the food/drinks sponsor – Exabytes.

 

As for the movie itself, I would personally rate 8.5 out of 10 – for the overall. Yet, I missed out the short clip after the credits due to the 3 hours long length which makes me wanted to take a leak so desperately. It was the Walt Disney style which ended up happily ever after, with the next generation of the Turner family. As for the pirates, there will be never ending story between our favourite Captian Jack Sparrow and the Captain of the Black Pearl – Barbossa. Maybe another spin off with two of them going after the Fountain of Youth?

 

Following up from the event, few other bloggers whom unable to make to the screening asked me about the event. How does it turn out to be and who is who there? Most of them would asked about the man who created a big hoo-ha from the last March blogger party – Endroog. One of the undisclosed blogger asked me whether the guy was there for the screening and did he get an opportunity from Nuffnang to give his long awaited speech – Majulah Blogging Untuk Negara. I didn’t see him around… does anyone?

 

To conclude this, I personally strongly believe that this year, Year 2007 is the year of bloggers in Malaysia. With the opening of the bloggers party in March, and this blogger movie outing, we can expect more of these events or similar to come up soon. icon wink So! Shiver me timbers, heres Nuffnang

One Month Bonus?

Under the Sun No Comments

Just for disclaimer purpose, and to set things straight…. the one month bonus thing is copy and paste from an email being forwarded. Hence, I have no idea where does it originated from

 

It doesn’t matter because the main important is that do you get your 1 (one) month bonus every year? But the question was that are we being paid bonus? Is the 1 month bonus is what we actually deserve? I don’t know because I don’t have bonus one. Not at all.

 

Why is there a 13 month bonus when its really isn’t a bonus? The mystery is finally revealed! When the British were in Malaya, they were being paid weekly and they argued that locals were actually being cheated into believing that the 13th month pay is a bonus.

 

Locals were being paid monthly which is equivalent to 4 weeks pay because there are 4 weeks in a month. As the British were paid weekly, it worked out to the same. You see, there are 7 days in a week. 4 weeks in a month. 12 months in a year. Then 12 months should work out to 48 weeks only. But 1 year worked out to 52 weeks!!! Hence the 13th month is your own pay (not bonus??!!).

 

So, the British argued that there is in fact no bonus at all??? It is a very simple calculation that stunned many!!!!

 

BONUS ??? What bonus??? … !!!
