first post for years.

There's so many things to share, time flies and it been years since i last checked my blog. what triggers me to get back here and share a post was after reading my in-law's wordpress ( yes im married ) and it caught my interest to share my thoughts - something that i could read back on when i grow older and to understand myself more.

little smers happened, i am married for atleast coming 3 years i guess. ( lost track of time ) well i guess this is the problem if i dont keep my blog updated. i'd love to share little smer's picture but you can always see them on my instagram. i upload her pictures almost everyday.

today, apart from being over weight, unhealthy, looking dis-shaped. i am currently working with my aunt, well its more like learning about her business and get paid. still running big debts which i hope i could settle it all by this year, managing 3 shops, few businesses. i still envy those who dont have much work yet enjoy life to their fullest because their parents happened to be more well off. so un like them, im working my ass off towards the idea of reaching financial freedom.

Clocking keeps ticking.

15th March 2015.

Where should i began? Life has already made an unexpected turn, by end of August .. i would be a totally different person with someone entering my life. I'm glad to live life, so far I'm a happy bunny. indeed many complicated things had happened with the other part of my family, as much i loved and cared about them .. i just don't feel as appreciated as it is. They are better off without me (us) , its just more natural to not get too involve in their problems because they are able to go through them themselves. 

Right now, i partly own a store at the Mall. running business is what i do for a living now, so far business has been good tho it does have its up and downs but i just ought to overcome those obstacles . financial freedom is what i .. hope to have. really can't wait, so depending .. trusting .. patience is what i need to implant.

Both Joel and Jefflego are in Form 3, and the little one is in Form 1. they grow a lot from 3 little rascal to 3 teenagers that i seldom communicate with because they are always stuck with their online games. we don't have a maid now so Joel is the one doing most of the housework while the rest of us acted as Kings and Queen.

Its been a while

Dear Readers,

Its been a while, i hope everything has been well for you.
right now, life is a smooth sailing boat as i am pleased with how things turn out to be.
really blessed with the ability to earn this much money at the age of 22. i wish that, i would be able to earn more and to enjoy more of this life has to offer. 22 is a big number and it won't stop so i really want to enjoy, experience and explore most of it before all my hair turn white, and wrinkles start to show. 

3 more days, and imma be at bangkok. i was at indonesia last month and a month later, I'm at bangkok ! no matter how success i would be, I'm still really broken heart inside that many things can be fixed with money. the lost childhood my brothers and i experienced, i really hope their relationship will recover. nothing is perfect, no matter how good something look, something is definitely broken somewhere..

Business in Brunei

Dear readers,


This would be my 405 blog post since 2010. never had i imagined that i could keep blogging till 2014 ! tho I'm not a recent blogger, but I'm glad that I'm able to blog again today.

The reason that i wanna blog today, is because I'm feeling 'awesome' - :D
ignore what i said earlier. So, if you had no idea what's happening in my life - here's a simple introduction of what happened.

someone had official became my life partner. other than that, i am the founder of a trending product in my country. it was a HIT when it first started but someone just had to be jealous and duplicate my works and do the exact same sh*t, to attract people of course they had to jack a lower price - some people recognized who started first and supported all the way. but that wasn't the point, let just finish off by saying more than 10,000 rolls sold as of today and no, i don't keep track but its all around Brunei. 

I'm pretty proud of the team i had to help me out, here i would like to show my appreciation as i would have never be able to get this far without their love and support. That's how business nowadays are, when other sellers see that many customer likes a certain product sold by a seller, they would find the source and get it themselves and jack the price lower. YES ! rezeki masing2 but it's not a healthy way because your just copying people's idea and more people selling it and causing some seller to unable to generate enough profit to raise their family so to say. 

Another new product is on their way, i spent a fortune on them and hope they sale. :D
but ya, long story short - i met hisyam (old classmate from CHMS) and we became business partners (not official) cause his currently helping me out and as if everything goes well, who knows 3 years later i might give him part of the shares from the company. other than hisyam, there's taufiq whose helping me out. So, i was hoping the new business ideas that I'm having would sale and generate more income !

If everything works well, im really thinking to re-orgazined a NPO to help unfortunate families. 


Oh, Life ~ that's all i can say for today !

thanks for reading.

Sincerely,
rui

thru thick and thin.

Opportunity is everywhere, There's no such things as potential people because those potential ones tends to leave early. This feeling is not new to me, i was disappointed not because of you, but because of myself for trusting you.


something is coming up by end of June. Tho I'm not sure how this would last, but I win giving up. this is life, and these are just test along the way to success !
Success doesn't come in a short way, it comes in a long way.

Those who gone thru the thick and thin with you are those who are worth keeping.
that's all i can say.

missing my old life

As much as i misses my old life, i still have to strive for reality.
When i look at the path of my life, i realized that .. i have been making decision on my own, being rebellious and only decides on what i believe is right.

do anyone believes in meant to be? to be honest, i am lost in this world again. lost in confusion of what is right and wrong, i no longer hold on to any grip as I'm just a person swaying with the flow. i don't know what is going to happen on the other world, but it would take me to the end of my life to actually see whats the truth. As for this moment, nothing make sense to me.. 

having much thoughts about would i be a successful entrepreneur ? 
my dad was unsuccessful and i wouldn't want to be like him. i want to have an ongoing success that i won't go bankrupt like my father.. 

but being in the business world, it's actually a cruel world. 
they don't give you space even your young, they fear so they do bad stuff. *smirks*

tired.

as of today

As of today,

I wouldn't consider that my business is fully developed. we only started for a few months, and after we introduce this new product, more people started to follow our footstep, some have tried exactly what we did and trying to go higher than us. some even bring in higher quality, internationally recognized products and so much more.

its been a very challenging period because over 2 year of my business experience, never have i overcome such dramatic ones, not only having a fairly well known online seller trying to duplicate my works, and after sponsoring one of the social media and had an unsatisfying review, which i am utterly disappointed with his unprofessional action, because as a social media promoter that is not what a advertiser would do, because you leave your honest review upon things you weren't sponsored, otherwise reject that sponsorship deal.

and as of today, having a 40 year old lady stepping on my tail had cause me to be very uncomfortable upon her action because we both knew each other eventho we weren't close, but she should show some respect as i have for her. she should find someone her own age, and not a 21 year old lad.

overall, their behavior and action teaches me a lot, about people who are jealous and definitely people are INCAPABLE of thinking out of the box, so they either "DUPLICATE, BADMOUTH or DO BAD THINGS, just to bring you down. much childish can i say, because definitely I'm at least 10-20 years younger than them. to think about it, it should be quite embarrassing because they are trying to ruin a 21 year old business, i guess they have issue of their own.. Get a Life people ! :)

and leave me alone.

to create a better and greater society, we lift one another UP and not bring one another DOWN.
people like you guys are a bad example and influence to the society. hmmmm...

utterly disappointed.
