Keeping / maintaining a relationship

Whether it is friends, families or work mates, it takes effort and time from both sides to maintain an ongoing relationship. 

I am at the stage where as I grow older, my willingness or keen to put in an effort and spare a time to do this gets lesser and lesser....

R&k playing at Tesco!

=) 

Slacking! 18/5-26/5

19-23/5 attended my course. Met back with Ted and Jacqueline. Made two new friends. Freshen up on the knowledge. This time the course is at puchong four points. Farr. Tried this Vietnamese restaurant which is quite OK. Felt it was authentic Viet. Not sure.. Tried it with Ted and we talked about investment and stuff. Was good catch up with him. He will.be in Kl today till Monday for another course.

We were also told to be non negotiable with the 'client'  and don't do it for free in order for us to get started. I find this very true.

23/5 played badminton and broke my racquet. It's been more than 7 yrs I believe. 25/5 bought a new racquet at Kd shop. It is a nanoray 70dx for rm280.  Had chilli pan mee with chew after that. (he was going to watch diyana play futsal at sports Planet).

21/5 ran half marathon. My best timing thus far, 2:22 for 21 but because scklm distance is longer,  my actual timing is 2:34. I felt good. Can't say the same for hl. Lol

19/5 had dinner with MJ at Sri. Petaling organic shop

21/5 dinner at ruyi and Lynn with family for kammo and Kaufu's 40th anniversary. Nice funky food, worth trying at least once but didn't really like some of the dishes ie the lychee ball. Chicken was good.

21/5 after class before dinner, dropped by at Tesco to buy fabric freshener for the car seat (sweat etc) and milk! Got offer! 3 for rm15!

24/5 Bg with the guys. Tried Concordia. Love it!

24/5 met with Margaret to discuss on the plans for the garden, in approaching the partners. Collected pots from Suzie. 25/5 went to garden in the morning to discuss with mr Heng. Did some weeding and tile placing.

While waiting

I am now waiting for Bun wai to arrive at one Utama. Got time to write and crap. Finished sipping my milk tea

First, attended a coaching workshop yesterday with Cindy. Take away is to learn to apply that in any other relationship; be open, make the other party feel safe, make yourself trustworthy, active listening, success= awareness and action (make the party aware and take action)

After that went shopping at Tesco.  Finally restocked my cereal and milk. Bought ice cream too :D.

This morning I went to garden, met with Sathis. After discussion, he is willing to fund some of the materials for the rainwater harvesting. #awesome.  Now I need to find the pricing  for two more items before I submit it to him.

Looking to secure some new bgs this weekend.

Got scklm this weekend.

Got Bazi workshop.

On Monday attended CPA meeting, had mamam (mom mom like eating).  Not bad (had their mango chicken rice).  Siu Ching asked me to sign off her CPA (which I did) and introed me boxgreen. Decided to try one month and see how.

Nick's treat!

Group pic from Lucky Bo. Nick bought us an expensive dinner (20 pax?) last Saturday. We had wagyu steak, one medium and another medium rare.

I fine the medium rare relative raw, like sashimi, which made it much more delicious to eat, texture wise. The medium one is more chewy, so not that great. But did I enjoy it? I think it was an experience for me, as it was my first time tasting a steak close to the texture of a sashimi. However, later I realise what was missing for me was that it could have been juicier. The texture was good but no juice (maybe cos it is that raw that it does not work that way).

Anyway it was fun! Shame no after-dinner gaming session though. :( was looking for some party games/ spyfall.

Weekend

Jogging with hl and diyana. Did abt 40mins

Friday night yumcha at qbistro. No keys and nobody home so had to use side door to leave the house.

9/5

Helped out at the garden. Set up another raised bed, started the next one.

Did some composting, pour coffee grounds onto the beds, collected the limau purut and go at dung from eunice for kammo.
