When things in your life seem, almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.

The Story –
A professor stood before his philosophy class
 and had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar
And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students, if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
them into the jar.   He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open Areas between the golf balls.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full.  They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
 Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous ‘yes.’

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand.  The students laughed.

‘Now,’ said the professor,   as the laughter subsided,
‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things – family,
children, health, Friends, and Favorite passions –
Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, Your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house, and car.

The sand is everything else –The small stuff.

‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’  He continued,
there is no room for  the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for the things that are important to you.

So…

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.

There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.

‘Take care of the golf balls first –
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.’

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.

The professor smiled.
‘I’m glad you asked’.

It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.’

on the first day we learned the basic n shine.

The first 45 mins was learning n practising the basic. It surely isnt easy. Salsa is a little simpler – salsa has 6 steps with 2 pauses, while cha-cha is a total of 10 steps with 2 sets of cha-chas.

After spending enough time practicing the basic and the hands we moved ahead to shine. Note, i hadnt even got the complete hang of the basic and with music it was just worse.

Then gibson, the tutor, started with the shine. Wow, for this move the beats were different!! Somehow i did something and managed to end the dance at the correct note, but yes it was all cocked up!

In the end, we gibson did the move for us again and we recorded it.

So class is over but the homework starts now!

Yes, cha cha cha!! Dont ask me how this happened to me. But wait, do you know what happened? Before i get to me story, pa, i am not calling any chacha!! Hehe

vivian n terence have been dancing salsa for years now. On my birthday last yr, they told us they know salsa and we, being ourseleves said, ya right, whatever. But then as the night came to an end, they danced and we were stumped!

After that night, our company trip happened and these two ppl started giving leassons right there, in Bintan next to the pool! Some of us got involved and actually had fun.

Since then, terence asked us repeatedly to go to , and finally one day we did! To me it was a (culture) shock, everyone dancing perfectly well doing similar dance moves. there was a rythm in the air and it surely wasnt like a normal night club where ppl are doing what they want!

Gradually we started visiting Union often and before we knew estrella had already started her salsa classes! I didnt join her then cause mum was coming over for a month and that would mean not seeing her for 2 working days every week (i still went on wednesdays!).

Then one fine day we hear vivian and terence have joined cuban salsa! We continued going to to practice. All this while i was only learning from the rest and terence doing his funny dance moves on me. Damn, i didnt know and still dont know what exactly do i do on that floor.

So then the next development happened. Vivian learnt that there is something called street cha-cha that is taught in Attitude. Vivian n terence decided they are joining. Estrella, after a lot of thinking and me telling her she is gonna get all confused between cha-cha and salsa, she didnt join. All this while they were also compelling me to join them. I was confused; the shell, ppl, dance and i never went for a class before! Terence did help me with the basics, but i wasnt sure.

Then friday, last friday – 5th June, the day the classes would begin, arrived! They still tried to convience me to join the class till the very last moment and i was still not sure. Then work got a little messy – and i think this is what made me get up and go! I went with terence n vivian and actually joined them.

So end of the story, i am now learning cha-cha-cha.
This is no easy!

it is always good to spend time wid family, thanks to mum i got to see my bro a little more. but what an irony, he jus finished his exams andmum has left. he now has 2 weeks of holidays and yes, nothing to do. damn, i would kill for that!

so yea, back to mum’s visit. initial days were quite decent; we stayed home most of the time cause she has already seen singapore enough. you know, the usual tourist thing. so we jus spent time at home, talking, she doing her things, i doing my stuff, eating, relaxing. actually, i didnt even go out much. there was no party no outings.towards the end of the month mum’s friends came by.

i know reena aunty quite well, but did know her other frend much. moreover, the other frend’s daughter happened to be my senior from school, a girl whom i never spoke to much back then. once i met all of them, i knew i will be having fun for the next few days.basically i was assigned as their tour guide so i sort of planned their itenary.

they had a good time here, i suppose, and it was great meeting my senior. we actually managed to hit off well. towards the end of their trip, i had done enuf shopping, but nothing compared to the amt of stuff they had bought! i bought my handphone, Nokia E71 and mum bought me a nice white mango dress for my bday.

they left on a tuesday, i was sad.

my two housemates left on friday, i am sad.

my mum left today, i am still very sad.

my 3rd housemate is leaving on 12th, i am so gonna be sadder.

my birthday will be at my colleagues’ mercy and i am sure it will be memorable.

oh, yea, cant wait to hang out wid them again; it has been a while!
