  • breaking it down

    Thursday, Nov 5, 2009 4:31PM / Standard Entry


    so before i begin work on this final document ive been preparing for for a few weeks i thought id let it all out and then plow through...

    i couldnt get the sky logo stickers printed on time so... i printed them myself! and have started to put the gift pack for the event together...



    how cute is that lollipop!?! AND its a tongue painter

    so im doing that x 500... (thank you ciko for doing 202 for me yesterday! and candy shopping!)

    i went to speak up yesterday - i didnt stay long cos i got really uncomfortable with the questions "are you ok?" "youve lost a lot of weight" "why dont you ask for help?" - well im fine, yes ive lost a lot of weight cos im doing a lot of work for one person and i do and have asked for help and people have offered to help - and when its that time - i'm always left doing it all on my own but anyways i continue cos i'm just not going to let anyone slow me down

    before i begin my rant lets pause and blue steel!



    heres my prep...



    which i have now absorbed and translated on to paper:



    and i begin expanding that into a strict document :)

    crazy yeah? but this is how my mind works - i can actually absorb copious amounts of information and pin it down into simple structures - unfortunately the simple outline only 1 out of 20 people understand so thats why i have to expand from it

    how did i learn all this? well its a combination of always curious to know how the world works and finding a solution to make it better, simpler, moving forward and productive whilst still balancing everyone equally + law school (!) + conveyancing law (property transactions - i worked as a conveyancing exec for 2 years !)

    why didnt i become a lawyer instead? sure i would have made $ but (sorry dad i dont think you intended your words this way) my father said to me - to live; you have to live with meaning, have substance and of value - i know what he really meant - what he was saying was "to live; you have to live with $, have $ and of $"

    but i dont understand numbers and so i took his words literally

    so this is what i want to do:

    Sky Tao’s Summary

    I'd like to set an example for the next generation. That they can then make a good example out of mine and for the generation after that to make the best example out of the good example left to them. The example I want to set is what I do by my own actions, dare and be anything you want to be, and should you find you didn't want to be that - then dare to be whatever you want from there. At some point you will find it and you'll be glad you remained you throughout the process because you dared to be you.

    Sky Tao’s Specialties:

    research, ethical approach to corporate responsibility, social enterprise, creativity for education & academic institutes, youth issues, social issues, rule of law and the application and execution of preserving fundamental principles in respect of free speech and expression

    most of all i want to preserve creativity in every single aspect and way possible - and the best person to preserve and ensure creativity remains creative would be for a creative person to be the head of createhk!

    ok blog time over - have to put on adult-thinking-cap on now!

  • i am, i feel (updated with a discovery)

    Sunday, Nov 1, 2009 5:26PM / Standard Entry



    (missscarlett i think you'll be right behind me on this blog)

    i am intuitive, perceptive and can feel things around me and see through things - this is not magic, a god given talent or a miracle. it's actually very simple - anyone and everyone can be this way. its possible and one can be this immediately if they wanted to.

    how? attention.

    i react to things around me, in front of me even to things far away from me. i react to people i think about and care about, things i care about and love. they don't have to be right in front of me or present for me to react or feel.

    i'll give you an example:

    i went out on a date last friday (yes i really did!) and hes lovely - we've watched each other from afar and over time, a few years - i suppose we finally reached a communicative level for it to happen - now it's not like fireworks and lightning bolts started flashing around me when we first kissed however my leg did do a little of this...



    and oh boy the last time i kissed a man and i totally was lost in it ... was ... december 2007 ... my gosh after that kiss i lost my balance - actually i lost my balance on friday too

    "Traditionally, when a woman and a man kiss, the woman tends to lift her leg to show just how hot and heavy it's getting or to demonstrate how much she trusts the man to hold her up. "

    where am i going with this?

    (forgive me here im actually running a high fever - which i think its because everyone i care about is hungover and i can feel it and i was working last night drinking lemon tea and chocolate milk! - i spent 2 hours folding menus into magazines x 300 oh and i made a video)

    errr... yeah cant finish this - ive totally lost my train of thought and want to lay down damnit

    *** update ***

    i have a restless mind - so thats called foot popping by the way - when the leg lifts up ... and i found this picture!




  • pay attention

    Be Attentive

    Many mistakes in reasoning are explained by the fact that
    we are not paying sufficient attention to the situation in
    which we find ourselves. This is especially true in familiar
    situations. That very familiarity causes us to make careless
    judgments about facts right before our eyes. We misread a
    situation because we are skimming it, when what we should
    be doing is perusing it. Often, we assume that a familiar situation
    will be but a repeat performance of a similar situation
    we've experienced before. But, in the strictest sense, there
    are no repeat performances. Every situation is unique, and
    we must be alert to its uniqueness.

    The phrase "to pay attention" is telling. It reminds us
    that attention costs something. Attention demands an active,
    energetic response to every situation, to the persons,
    places, and things that make up the situation. It is impossible
    to be truly attentive and passive at the same time. Don't
    just look, see. Don't just hear, listen. Train yourself to focus
    on details. The little things are not to be ignored, for it is
    just the little things that lead us to the big things.

  • trying to gain

    Friday, Oct 23, 2009 5:40AM / Standard Entry


    im trying to gain weight - this whole magazine process/project/idea is starting to take a toll on me - and its not that im not eating - recently im eating a lot - yesterday i ate a huge burger, fries, noodles, chocolate ice cream and today i ate lasagne with salad and just ate half a calzone - im that stressed out that im just burning it off real quick...

    and i know i have to gain cos for once i can't lift things like i normally can (and trust me i can actually lift quite a heavy load) so when i was delivering issue 1 - piece of cake - but now im panting just lifting 30 magazines

    and half a glass of wine makes me tipsy

    and im sleeping a lot more than usual - part of me feels like my body wants to just shut down - honestly half of my heart has started to - but ill save that mighty blog for another day cos now im tired....
