Job Change soon??? or not???

Hi everyone, I am glad that i passed the probation rather smoothly and can claim some allowance in due time. But now, the supervisor of my past company claims he can help me find work in his company. So now, my mind seems to be rather keen on a move back to my old company if he can really help me find a department that i can work in. So how long more will i be training in IMH library? A week more or longer? That i think will depend on how things go in the next few days...

Back after a long break...

Hi everyone, I am back here blogging after a long break. I am now training in IMH library as a librarian assistant. So far, I have provisionally passed my probation. For how long am I going to undergo this training, I don't know. Maybe a month more, maybe half a year? Let's see what happens next...

BTW, Happy National Day, Singapore!

What a RISK that some athletes take...

This is one news that some of us maybe interested to find out.

Risky thing

Basically, It is about doping which some athletes choose it to achieve success. However, it is noticeable that it is probably not wise to do so as side effects far outweighs desired effects. Therefore, a doping control is in place to make sure as far as possible that there is no case of doping.

I am sure no one would really want to suffer any side effects such as liver damage or other psychological changes, ya? Anyway, doping is quite an offence for sure. Don't everyone agree?

7th day of chinese new year

Once again, its chinese new year festive period. Since its 7th day of lunar new year, shall wish everyone a lunar happy human day.(Direct translation, hope u all get the meaning) Anyway, hope you guys and girls enjoy the festive period too. For me though, i has just recovered from my illness which is quite serious at its peak. Hopefully no relapse or else my life gotta get interrupted again. This time, my reservist duties are like screwed up in a way that i dunno will i be fit enough to go for reservist next time as that will depends on what my doctor says on 24feb.

Right now, feeling that my nose are quite sensitive. Always reacts (like sneezing) when dust comes within close range around me. Otherwise, I has obey a healthy diet but has not excercised much due to the hot weather. Meanwhile, I keep myself hydrated by drinking plenty of plain water as the weather is quite scorching. Oh well, anyway look out for my next post regarding another interesting article review but without article scanned. (Due to article too big and wide, i may not scan it but it depends...)

Ok, then... Cya, and have a nice weekend ahead!

Update: Mayb a day of the following week then i blog again as i take a break...

Harmful candies?? or not?

Next up... Candies awareness...

Photobucket

Hope alot of people visiting relatives' or friends' home don't happen to see the above mentioned Blink Pop and Baby flash pop. No doubt, it is pleasant to look at, but to eat the candy is deemed a risk as u may suck up harmful substances if the batteries hiding beneath ever leaks. Thats what AVA deems it as, potential "hazardous" candies.

According to the article some time ago, importers are informed but it seems the message to not sell it is not passed on to retailers locally. Investigations are ongoing thus I will not comment much on who is at fault. Anyway, if you like candies, will you buy such candies if i say the risk of sucking up harmful substances is only maybe just an insignificant percentage? I believe most adults won't, but some may taste it just for its novelty. (Main target group in sg is schooling children though and there are no reported injuries as yet.)

The danger factor which is its light bulb may be swallowed if some people suck it too hard. I personally won't try it as I don't really eat or taste unsafe or deemed unsafe products. Whats the point of trying something which may pose to be perhaps harmful to your own personal health? Better to be safe than never ya? Life is precious and i am sure many people agree prevention is better than cure too. (Although there are alot of people who are more adventurous in tasting food.)

So if anyone wants to be more safe a little more, a check with AVA will probably ensure the candies or other food of unique origins to be purchased is safer to eat or doubtful to the point where it could be harmful. Afterall, a candy that looks visually more appealing cannot be always regarded as safe to eat, don't you all agree? =)

Motorcyclists wear reflective vest = Safer on road?

As a start, i shall start on my first article review. I have already prepared 3 other articles cut out from THE STRAITS TIMES/THE NEW PAPER Feb 6 issues for review/discussion. Pictures or rather snapshots of various articles are not available at the moment as i am still figuring out the best way to post it here... In the meantime, do bear these wordy post though i shall break it into more paragraghs for better viewing... Other things to blog will be interesting stuffs and shall be decided on case by case basis.

Okay, everyone knows driving a car has a better safety edge over riding a motorcycle.(More protection) So the point now made in the recent article is whether motorcyclists's clothing do made a difference to their own safety or not much difference.

Well, personally i do not drive any vehicle. I somehow do feel if motorcyclists wear high visibility reflective vests, their vehicles can be spotted much easier and thus prevent any possible collison that results in a Road Traffic Accident.

How successful is this initiative by Singapore Road Safety Council will probably depends on a few factors such as design and comfort of the aforementioned vests. Certainly, if such vests does not look cool enough, will motorcyclists especially the young adults don it in the first place?

Night riding for motorcyclists will likely be safer if they adhere to the road safety rules. I wonder if luminous/reflective designs on some of their motorcycles' components will help ensure a safer journey? I am particularly concerned about road safety as one of my NS friends passed away recently and he is a motorcyclist. Enough said, I just don't want to see any close friends of mine lose their lives on the road.

Anyway, happy tiger chinese new year to all. Remember to obey road safety rules as there is a chinese saying that goes ... "马路如虎口" which is true especially when it will be the year of tiger real soon... =)

Still alive...

Just back from an unwanted place where sick people undergo treatments...

To say i am down with a viral fever disease is appropriate enough to briefly describe how sick i am as i am here to really blog a simple post. How things really changed in just a months time. I am still alive although certain things are still complicated while some things just turn simpler.

If every thing is simple in life, what does stress mean to everyone? Ok, thats just a qn for everyone to think. A balanced lifestyle should reduce stress but it is not what everyone can achieve due to various commitments in life. Ok, enough said, maybe i should blog on more meaningful and not little insignificant things in my next post...

Perhaps, hmmm, lets see how... =)
