New Hobby - Colouring
It is the long year end leave I am always looking forward to. Last year, my friend and I drove all the way to Fountain Gate Westfield on Boxing Day, it was a good shopping. Comparing to the city and chadston, it is definitely less traffic and shoppers. Oh Lord, this year is a different story. We arrived earlier, but it was full of people. What a nightmare. No way I am going there again.
Anyway, while there is not much really good deal going on, I found new thing to do for my holiday.
As my friend and I passed by a book store, we saw some colouring book for adults. What is that for? My friend told me that may be I can do colouring when I am bored. As I flipped through the pages, it is intimidating... Why... so complicated. As lazy as I am,. the thought of go through all these complicated pattern did not sound appealing at all.
You know what? When I woke up the next morning, I changed my mind again..... as usual. I went to nearby BigW, do some shopping and that include buying a couple Colouring Book for Adults. I then went to Officeworks for colouring pencils before I changed my mind again.
It is not that bad after all. It is another relaxing way. The beauty is, I listen to music, picking up any colours and do the colouring without thinking anything. Good way to clear my mind and enjoy a sense of achievement at the end of it.
I hope you like my colouring as I do.
Happy New Year.

Leadership - Interesting Read
Sometimes we are getting frustrated at work and wonder why are we reporting to some managers who we don't see they are fit for their position. You might even wonder why you haven't progress further from you position.
I just came across this article about Why you are not a leader. It is an interesting article and probably the most concise list that I have found.
