The Secret has existed throughout the history of humankind. It has been discovered, coveted, suppressed, hidden, lost and recovered. It has been hunted down, stolen, and bought for vast sums of money. Now for the first time in history, The Secret is being revealed to the world over two breathtaking hours.

A number of exceptional men and women discovered The Secret, and went on to become known as the greatest people who ever lived. Among them: Plato, Leonardo, Galileo, Napoleon, Hugo, Beethoven, Lincoln, Edison, Einstein and Carnegie, to name but a few.

tEstiMonY

He is someone whom I know from another person...in short, we are all related in friendship. He is quiet and needed time to warm up to conversations though not necessary in this order but none too far from it as well. Someone rather good in the area of food and wine, honest opinions abounds from him and in a way, always looking to improve himself big and small. He advises you from his own experience. Certainly a person worth to know and understand better...just as in wine, the older the better it gets and taste (I don't think I will do the tasting part).

When I first saw him with his girlfriend, I thought to myself

"Is he Malay?" .dotz.

Yup, that is precisely my first question that came into my mind. And where did I first meet him? Chinese New Year...goodness, I thought I have come into the wrong house. No offense to our beloved Malay communities or other races, but I think I don't have many Malay friends who will want to come over to celebrate Chinese New Year...perhaps next door neighbours or around the vicinity but to come from one place to another...I don't think so.

Anyway, to recover from my initial "shock", I became somewhat curious about this new inclusion. Very quickly, I came to know that he is more Chinese than Malay. At least all of us sighed our relief after that news. I guess we are pretty concerned with his girlfriend who is more closer to us then (I'll save the details).

Time flies. Though in reality we don't meet up as often, if we do meet up in a group, it is usually an awesome gathering. Life for him and his girlfriend changed during these times. I can safely say that it can only get better for them, be it personally or in business...right? Ha! (Do we get to hear wedding bells this year? Hope I don't have to ask this Q next year :p)

I write on this so that I will not forget because when I do forget, someone else, hopefully, will remind me of this friend whom I have acknowledged through the years.

He is none other than Joe (C.).

Xiaxue - asia blog QUEEN

  
Congratulation Xiaxue! You make asia proud. Better luck this year! Design a bigger trophy for her!

Xiaxue (Simplified Chinese: 下雪, real name Wendy Cheng) is one of the most prominent bloggers in Singapore. She started her blog in 2003. Her blog attracts about 20,000 readers every day with her take on current events and her life. She blogs about various topics, ranging from methods of measuring penises to dumb starfish and MRT irritants. She has been criticised, however, for the use of expletives in her entries, controversial statements that she has made on certain issues in which some consider to be bordering on racism and xenophobia, and her unrepentance despite strong criticism of her offensive writings. She is also known to be rather defensive towards criticism.[1][2]
She is frequently featured in the Singaporean media. On 20 July 2005, her blog was hacked into, and deleted; the act attracted a lot of attention in the local Internet community, with people weighing in on the morality of the hacking. On 15 January 2006, she was accused and proven of impersonating a rival blogger.[2]
Cheng has worked as a columnist for The New Paper (a Singapore tabloid), Maxim magazine and Snag magazine. Her pseudonym, Xiaxue, means "snowing" in Chinese.
On 10 November 2005, Xiaxue was ranked as the 5th most powerful woman in the blogosphere by Jack of all Blogs, placing her amongst the ranks of Xeni Jardin of Boing Boing and Heather Armstrong of Dooce. December 2006 saw the debut of Girls Out Loud, a reality television show hosted by her and DJ Rosalyn Lee.
Xiaxue's blog has won several online awards, mostly for popularity: Best Singapore Blog 2003, Best Asian Blog 2004, and 2005 Weblog Best Asian Weblog.

Happy New Year 2007

That greeting will be said and heard for at least the first couple of weeks as a new year gets under way. The celebration of the new year is the oldest of all holidays.

It was first observed in ancient Babylon about 4000 years ago. In the years around 2000 BC, the Babylonian New Year began with the first New Moon (actually the first visible cresent) after the Vernal Equinox (first day of spring).

The beginning of spring is a logical time to start a new year. After all, it is the season of rebirth, of planting new crops, and of blossoming. January 1, on the other hand, has no astronomical nor agricultural significance. It is purely arbitrary. The Babylonian new year celebration lasted for eleven days. Each day had its own particular mode of celebration, but it is safe to say that modern New Year's Eve festivities pale in comparison.

The Romans continued to observe the new year in late March, but their calendar was continually tampered with by various emperors so that the calendar soon became out of synchronization with the sun. In order to set the calendar right, the Roman senate, in 153 BC, declared January 1 to be the beginning of the new year. But tampering continued until Julius Caesar, in 46 BC, established what has come to be known as the Julian Calendar. It again established January 1 as the new year. But in order to synchronize the calendar with the sun, Caesar had to let the previous year drag on for 445 days.

New Year Wish 2007

"May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs and your stocks not fall; and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise."

"May New Year's Eve find you seated around the table, together with your beloved family and cherished friends."

"May you find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure much more fulfilling than anything else you might ordinarily do that night."

"May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see in you delight them."

"May someone love you enough to forgive your faults, be blind to your blemishes, and tell the world about your virtues."

"May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you finish dinner, may the commercials on TV not be louder than the program you have been watching, and may your check book and your budget balance - and include generous amounts for charity."

"May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to your spouse, your child, your parent, your siblings; but not to your secretary, your nurse, your masseuse, your hairdresser or your tennis instructor."

And may we live in a world at peace and with the awareness of God's love in every sunset, every flower's unfolding petals, every baby's smile, every lover's kiss, and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous beat of our heart.
Lastly WORLD PEACE!
