Recently..(Finally!!)
Came back from celebrating Jason Ding's birthday over dinner at Chilies.
Been told its a dinner among huddle-mates and therefore it's like a "guys only" dinner. LOL.
The only difference from a normal guy's dinner is that all of us call Jason mentor.
Not verbally of cause.
It's different. Talking with them having dinner with them isn't like other guys i've dinner with.
Maturity and respect are some of the feelings i get.
Above that, it's like we all shared something common other than just a mentor.
But just a feeling that's all.Nothing else.
<->
What happen today made me thought about this article "You Are Who Your Friends Are" by Donald Miller.
It talks about simply this,"You become like the people you hang out with the most".
This remind me again of Robert Kiyosaki's theory of your income is the same as your top ten friends.
Looking at this two theories.
I came to an understanding that all of this has to do with values and principles.
Sometimes its a conscious, sometimes its just go-with-the flow thing.
But its a choice. The longer you are with someone, the more likely it is that you'll adopt the person's values and principles.
Your closest circle of friends becomes you.
Sometimes we do not want to admit it but its true. Peer pressure effects us.
I don't we've a choice in whether peer pressure effects us or not.
But I do think that we have a choice in choosing who our closest friends are.
A choice in choosing who'll be having an influence in our lives.
In writing this, has also put me in a place where I've to make a choice in my life today onwards.
I've to choose do what the people I want to be like do.
I've to choose not to do what people i don't want to be like do.
Its not a matter of doing what is right or wrong.
Its a matter of taking in values that I want in my life.

Now a review of Chilies at Empire Gallery.
New place good food.
As expected of a Chillies branch, the food will always make you full irregardless of how it looks.
Looks can be deceiving.LOL.
I had quesadillas. A lesson that I learnt is that its best eaten shared. just like the fajitas.LOL.
But it is good. But even better is the fellowship.
Cake presentation time some of the crews came out to sing a birthday song to Jason Ding.
Good Service + Good Filling Food.
2 Thumbs Up!!
Nites!!
