A conversation with the guru

After the arnis training camp, guru Eric and I went for a short trail starting from the Kowloon reservior to the Lion Rock. The finish time was about one and a half hour.

During the walk, I learned that one of his favourite activities was fishing. He taught many people how to pick up the hobby in his hometown and was a member of the fishing association. "I 've been to many places for fishing... . Yet I can't find any other filipino here taking it as a hobby like me . Those fishing guys around me are local chinese." 'Eric said with joy. Hearing that, there's no doubt Eric knowing the feelings of me joining the group( not the fishing group!).

MUSICIAN'S JOKES

一直都喜愛收集 MUSICIAN'S JOKES, 猶其是那些挖苦之餘滲出襌味的.....印象深刻的 MUSICIAN'S JOKE 是多年前一次在後台自ANGELITA LI 口裏分享出來之 BB KING 笑話.

前些時候, 在 ACTIVEBASS 中讀了一則 BASS PLAYER JOKE. 雖然, ACTIVEBASS 是針對 BASS PLAYER 而設的社區, 其笑話欄裏分有不同主題的笑話, 如 "結他手"; "鼓手"...等等.

那則笑話大意是如此這般的: 大男孩報了一個月上四次課的低音結他課程, 第一星期上了第一堂課, 回家後, 付學費的父親問他學到什麼, 回答說懂得 E 弦上的 5 個音名, 父親暗暗歡喜. 如是者又過了一星期, 父親再問, 大男孩雀躍不已地答, "這堂課老師教了 A 弦上的 5 個音名."

第三堂課過去了, 教父親吃驚的是放了學很久還不見大男孩返家, 待看到他遲遲歸來時, 竟發現他滿身酒氣又口叼香煙踏進屋中, 未待父親開口, 他已主動道歉, " SORRY, 我沒有去上課, 我去了彈 GIG 嘛!"

我不感到被冒犯, 雖然, 我也有彈 BASS.

Cooloo 的四月份書評 " TOP PERFORMANCE" BY ZIG ZIGLAR



這本書是我最近作執拾時把它發掘出來的, 從各跡象看, 之前我曾讀了不到100 頁, 接下來便放下了它...為什麼? ZIGLAR 的書不是向來都易讀; 濃度高; 充塞了幽默元素嗎?

不過, 我還是把它讀完.

一開始, ZIG 即指出 REACTING 跟 RESPONDING 之分別(我想我會以反應及回應來譯此兩字), 雖說不是什麼嶄新概念, 其重要性可抵上全書. 而 ZIG 的寫作特色之一為使用大量現實生活例子, 更覺所說理論不是空洞或不著邊際....

本書談如何先讓自己成為TOP PERFORMER, 從而引發他人為自己所領導, 再分享怎樣激勵其他 TOP PERFORMER, 過程中強調到性格分析作為工具之應用.



縱然有點老生常談, 有益書籍多看也不壞吧

Confession of an arnisador

The story began a couples of days ago during the rank promotion exam for the modern arnis training. And it ended (?) with my practice partner saying, "it's part of the game".

Though she was one of the best partners amongst other, her luck was not as good as her skills. Due to my carelessness, she was hurt by the hand when I did the blow after the blocking and checking with the kali. Luckily, she was kind and accepted my apology.

The moral is :"Mind one's own risk as well as others."
