“Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don’t waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail.” ~by Og Mandino

Something New And ‘Refreshing’ To Us

Just bumped into a mid-age gentleman next door whom I never seen before. We started the conversation in English.

I was curious about his slang, and his outlook completely resembled a pure Chinese but why didn't he just respond to my query in Mandarin when he seemed like stuck with some WORDS…?! Many question marks floating above mine. Another Singaporean who insisted to use English as the first language for communication again?!

Without second thought, I asked him if he was a Chinese. He denied. He told us that he is a KOREAN. Wow-wow-wow!!!

He told us that after he settled down here, his wife would be coming over too.

Gosh! We are going to have new Korean neighbours very soon! KIMCHI NATION. Ha. Exciting!!
