Finally...

Yes, I finally got to watch 2 World Cup matches last weekend. It was fun and touching.

I can remember a line regarding the agony of defeat when I saw a certain player cry because his team lost. At the same time, I can feel the energy emanating from the cheers of the audience. I also got to see the exultant faces of the winners.

The one that I got to see till the end was the game between Ghana and Uruguay. I also got to see the first part of the Germany-Argentina match but I fell asleep and never got to finish the game. I really wanted to check out the other games but can't because of my very heavy work schedule.

I just wish though that an Asian team would have made it but that's just wishful thinking on my part.

Just Thinking

"Indeed, great managers/ leaders touch lives, bring their people to lofty heights."

One of my friends posted this status on her facebook account. I saw it just when I was so pissed off with somebody who was asking me to do something which goes against what I believe in.

It would have been better if she asked me to jump off a tree. I really might have just done that. But what she wanted me to do was to ask peoples some information which might even be deemed confidential at that time. Furthermore, she asked me to pay them off.

OMG! I never expected to be asked to do such things. I do not want people whom I consider as good friends to sacrifice an iota of their dignity just to give something I want. I do not want our relationship to be placed in jeopardy.

Now, it got me thinking and really think hard about that quotation.
