over J&B and chivas regal
me and my beautiful girlfriend attended my cousin's 1st birthday yesterday at hardrock cafe. he is growing up to be one good looking chap. he is going to be a heartbreaker when he grows up. 
after the party we (my sister, brother, gf and other cousin) had a few drinks with my uncle and his international barkada. all the races were represented, malaysian, chinese, indian, british and nigerian to name a few.
a very close friend of my uncle gave me a great advise. he was talking about being a go-getter, his words were: "never be the one who wonders whats happening, be the happening". he also shared to me his secret for promotion which is: "finish 50% of your task and delegate 50% to other people. spend 50% of the time that you saved to work on your boss' tasks so that when they need to promote someone, they will get you because you know how to do things''.
