]]> Silent Rage http://mgfx1975.blogs.friendster.com Michael was born, unlike most normal babies, with spinal bifida – the protrusion of the spinal membranes due to a defective closure of the bony encasement of the spinal cord, which is a developmental abnormality. Because of this physical condition, he could not crawl and had to be carried around until he was old enough to be put into a wheelchair. Though physically disabled, he has strong determination and is a mentally active boy. He was able to enjoy normal primary education and subsequently, he went on to complete his GCE ‘O’ Level. After his ‘O’ Level, Michael started work as a purchaser in an electronics company. During these years, he lived with the motto of developing within himself :- ‘A heart of love, An attitude of humility, A lifestyle of integrity.’ Shortly after his ‘O’s, he went on to further his studies and earned a Degree in Applied Psychology in 1998. Despite his disability he realized that to get what he wants in life he had only himself to rely on. With determination to change his mindset, he was then able to design his very own personal success plan and make use of his own unlimited potential in spite of his disablement. He also developed more courage from within himself to face challenges with greater confidence. After his graduation, he founded a company to conduct attitude development programs for youth. He was invited to speak in various schools and regularly meet up with about 100 youth that took part in the various programs he conduct. He has received very keen feedback from his classes of youth aged between 10 to 19 years old and was featured in a MediaCorp documentary ‘Heart of Gold’ in 2004. Through his interaction with the youth, he developed within himself the vision of facilitating a million youths to their fullest potential in his lifetime. In order to fulfill this vision, he volunteered his time with various youth voluntary welfare organizations like St John, AWWA, CHCSA and etc. Through it he has communicated his pet topic of “Attitude is Everything!” with fervor and with a sincere desire of wanting to touch peoples life in anyway he can. With a burden to help youths to fulfill their fullest potential, he look forward to bring a message that is dynamic and life-changing. 2007-03-06T08:28:03Z mgfx1975 youth, children, counseling, counselor, behavior, singapore

]]> 100 pirates in 100 days http://www.flickr.com/photos/34927237@N00/ In September of this year I began my mission to draw one Pirate a day for 100 days straight, and today I cleaned up and uploaded Pirate number 100. I am mentally and physically exhausted. If this post is less than articulate it's because I have been up for many hours and my brain don't work properly. When I'm done posting this I am going to sleeeeeeeeeeeep. Still, It feels great to know I have finished on time or thereabouts. I uploaded the images to a flickr set, where you can view the images as a slide show, leave comments and so on. For the sake of consistency with the rest of this blog I've also put all the images behind the cut tag below, but that might take a while to load and my friend whose webspace I use will hate me, so don't say I didn't warn you! I should mention that since the drawings were originally commissioned for an online role-playing game, they depict not only pirates but the creatures whose world the pirates inhabit. I guess the title of this project might be slightly misleading, because a fish with a pirate hat on isn't strictly a pirate, but I hope no-one will hold that against me. I should also point out that I've ordered it so the first twenty or so are all the lowly skulking creatures and pirate children, the last 20 are the mighty warrior pirates, and then everything in between is everything in between. That's just so you don't get confused when you click the link expecting to see pirates and instead you see a bunch of fish wearing hats. 2006-12-22T10:18:35Z sbrothier illustrator, illustration, flickr, Pirates

]]> buy wow gold http://www.winwin.com.cn <a href="http://www.winwin.com.cn">wow gold </a>Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic seacoast. He constantly advertised for hired hands. Most people were reluctant to work on farms along the Atlantic. They dreaded the awful storms that raged across the Atlantic, wreaking havoc on the buildings and crops. As the farmer interviewed applicants for the job, he received a steady stream of refusals. Finally, a short, thin man, well past middle age, approached the farmer. "Are you a good farmhand?" the farmer asked him. "Well, I can sleep when the wind blows," answered the little man. Although puzzled by this answer, the farmer, desperate for help, hired him. The little man worked well around the farm, busy from dawn to dusk, and the farmer felt satisfied with the man's work <a href="http://www.wowgoldworld.com">wow gold </a>. Then one night the wind howled loudly in from offshore. Jumping out of bed, the farmer grabbed a lantern and rushed next door to the hired hand's sleeping quarters. He shook the little man and yelled, "Get up! A storm is coming! Tie things down before they blow away!" The little man rolled over in bed and said firmly, "No sir. I told you, I can sleep when the wind blows." Enraged by the response, the farmer was tempted to fire him on the spot. Instead, he hurried outside to prepare for the storm. To his amazement, he discovered that all of the haystacks had been covered with tarpaulins. The cows were in the barn, the chickens were in the coops, and the doors were barred. The shutters were tightly secured. Everything was tied down. Nothing could blow away<a href="http://www.cheapwowgold.co.uk">wow gold </a>. The farmer then understood what his hired hand meant, so he returned to his bed to also sleep while the wind blew. MORAL: When you're prepared, spiritually, mentally, and physically, you have nothing to fear. Can you sleep when the wind blows through your life? The hired hand in the story was able to sleep because he had secured the farm against the storm. 2006-07-10T09:40:59Z tianyahaige buy wow gold, eq2 gold
