Zakum Helm !

Finally, after 130 levels i manage to get the crab helm hehe. It was a hard fought victory & certainly an achievement in my own personal view. Only ppl playing this game will understand what i meant hehe. It was a sweet feeling and i am still savouring the good feel after the dramatic victory. 3hrs & almost 20m spend so you can imagine how relieved i am that i manage to surive and loot the helm. If i crash at the dying moments i think it will be hard for me to pick myself up and enter the altar again.

Some SS i taken in Maple:

Gracious Singapore ?

Today i was reading Stomp when i came across several articles commenting if sporeans are a gracious lot or sg is a gracious society. Many ppl agree with MM Lee's assessement that we are not and we will take some time to become one. Take a look at this from a stomper who work as a part time sales assistant.

STOMPer: Hi Miss, this is your "free gift" you can set it into something.
Customer (a woman in her forties): No no, I just want the "free gift" and change another colour for me.
STOMPer: Er...sorry Miss, we are not allowed to change the colour of your "free gift" unless you set it into something here.
Customer: Why cannot?
STOMPer: Because this is the company's policy.
Customer: Go to hell! (She walked away with a sly smile on her face as if she won something, the STOMPer said.)
STOMPer: Hey auntie! How can you say things in this way?

Customer: No! I just want the "free gift"! (She said in an rude and loud manner to the his colleague, said the STOMPer)
STOMPer: No manners.
Customer: What did you just said? (She turned back and questioned the STOMPer)
STOMPer: I said you can talk nicely no need to be so rude and no manners (he replied her rather slowly in a normal tone, the STOMPer said).
Customer: You better watch out!

The full article can be found here:

Sometimes we only how to criticize or comment on badly we are being served but we fail to reflect on our own manners.
I have to admit that at times i may be pretty unreasonable but i nvr forget to show my appreciation when i receive good service from any1. A simple "Thank You" is more than enough to let ppl know you acknowledge what they are doing.
But this is mainly due to the fact that i work in a service line so to those who aren't, learn to be appreciate from today!

I came across this phrase from one of the comments from Dasmond koh's blog. I really like it.
