30 October 2006 - Inspired

yesterday, channel 8 talks about a 26 years old young guy who graduated from SMU with a degree, did not follow what the others are going. the others which include his classmates, are following one another, having the same mindset which is to go through proper education and securing a proper and stable job.

he started a cake business with a partner and it all started with a simple birthday cake for his friend. he searched the net for recipes to bake an oreo cheese cake. with all the different recipes available online, he combined the recipes and create his own version of oreo chesse cake. the taste of his very first cake turns out to be good and it lights up his passion for cake baking.

soon he started trying different cakes and took orders from relatives and friends for christmas cakes. he claims to have taken in 30+ orders for that year's christmas which made him a busy man that festive season.

his business soon grow from 1 branch to 2 branches. within 2 years of operations. after watching this show, it really inspire me and pushed me forward because i really envy what he can do and what i cannot. i wanted to do some business and i have something in mind, just that now is the time to equip myself with the skills for the business.

hope by next year, i can be writing how my business is working out.
