Sentosa!

It was busy weekend for me. I went rock climbing on Friday. This is my first time trying rock climbing, and I thought it is not difficult. I have no idea how it works. My sis asked me to go when I wake up on Friday morning. I was a bit "blur", and I said ok, cos I want to try. Luckily, I invited Kevin to go with us, or else I think we would waste our time there. It was adventurous and very challenging. I think I will try again. I like the feeling when I went up to the top. I felt I achieve something.. Haha...

Today, there was company team building in Sentosa. I am glad I joined cos it was a good work out. Although our team lose the game, I enjoyed the process. The weather was very hot and humid. Everyone seems enjoyed the time.

On the way back, we took the mono-rail and alight at Vivo City. We were thinking of giving away our "One day pass". Those are free for us given by company. It costs $3 per ticket. When we approached to those people who were queeing to buy their tickets and told them we were giving away the ticket. At first, they felt "weird" and did not know if they want to take the tickets. I mentioned again, "we give away for free", and some people shaking their head, some people looked at us with "why you want to give away for free" expression. Finally, some people just took it and even want to pay us.

It is not easy to get thing for free. There is no free lunch in the world. People always think if I get the free thing I have to do something. When we give thing for free without any condition, people will start doubting and questioning. There is no more trust among people. They will think you want to take advantage from them. I also realize one thing, it's better not to ask someone for help if you are not close to them. Not everyone is helpful, some people may think you only look for them if you need help. I rather do it myself if I can.
