New Journey

 
As a short update. Sorry fo not updating for a long time, I am a bit lazy + busy. :P
This year I am promoted, of course extra responsibilities comes with it too. It is a new journey started!
 
I have just visited Dubai, the prosperous dessert country. Exotic!! and looking forward to my Paris trip in August. :)
 
 ;)DSC03508                 DSC03648
 
 
And this pic is taken by Prudential in the awards night, when I went up to the stage, to receive the awards as the top 1% representative of the consultants. :)
It looks brilliant, right? ;) It is the best photo taken on that special day!

I just moved in new house at Simei -- however this time, I am not renting anymore! Yeah!
You are the most welcomed guest, if you want to pay a visit :) of course, when I finish unpacking, hehe :)
 
My work is always so much fully arranged, however it cannot stop life being beautiful! Nowadays everyday I have 4-5 interviews to conduct, sometimes even suprisingly to meet some familiar faces -- lovely juniors. Pleasant surprise.. :) sometimes I don't know them but they still can recognize me -- means I didn't change much! :)
 
However still want to advise the juniors if you are reading my blog. Some basic interview skills like, you should always talk more than the interviewer. You should be proactive, don't wait for the interviewer to squeeze the answer bit by bit.
Good to see some juniors have very good attitude, however most of them still need to develop more communication skills, and be more confident! hey we are scholars! :)
 
Btw, we are hiring financial consultants, with a basic pay of up to 3k, plus all the other rewards and incentives. please contact me at 9826 6672 if you want to know more! haha free advertisement here~~
 
Euro Cup is Coming, Good Luck Italy! :D

==2007总结篇==

 
2008已经过了半个月了,终于拖到这时候,想要好好给2007一个总结,因为这真是不同寻常的一年。
 
一个突破:
TOP Adviser in MRO, Top Rookie Adviser (3rd runner up among 800 new advisers), Top 1% sales force in Singapore (rank 30th in Prudential Singapore),
MDRT (Million Dollar Round Table), double star club qualifier, Premier Adviser (Bronze)...
SO....This year i will be a part time traveller, have FREE trip to Genting, Vietnam, Paris (2 tickets), and Dubai (2 tickets to be)...
也许我写这些大家都会很Lost,这只是一个工作的成绩单,基本属于A+水平。对于我自己来说是一个突破,也是一个新的自我极限。2008,继续加油!
 
两次心碎:
不过都已经过去了,what did not kill you will make you stronger. 今年一年流过的眼泪比过去5年的总和还多,可是还是庆幸,最后没有选择放弃的我,得到的也比我曾经以为会得到的要多出许多。而且在这两次经历中,有个朋友一直陪在身边,给我安慰给我鼓励,我还没来得及说足够的感谢,这位已经在公司的前几天的集会中竟然首次当众高调地感谢我对他始终如一的帮助与支持,真是让人潸然泪下。得友如此,不亦悦乎?
 
三次出游:
一次自己去伦敦与韩同学汇合,两个星期远离压力与烦恼的日子是这一年中最开心的日子。第一次踏上欧洲的土地,被那个帝国的建筑,历史,文化,风俗深深迷倒,不觉两周就这样弹指一挥间,却留下太多美丽的回忆,快半年了还记忆犹新。顺便提一下,韩同学两个月的培训,获得了全球第九,亚洲第一的好成绩,真不愧对我的眼光,让我小小自豪一下,哈哈哈。
另外两次都是公司的奖励,丽星号油轮上大吃大喝3天2夜,曼谷也是,似乎公司奖励的出游每次或吃喝,或购物,总是与物质上离不开关系,不过也算是开了眼界,得了荣誉了。值得一提的是,两次老板都是与我双宿双飞,一开始以为这是惯例,后来老板说我是有史以来唯一一个和她共同食宿的下属,于是倍觉受宠若惊,感激涕零!
 
天,差点忘了,12月14号就在我以为我将这么着度过2007年的时候,韩同学给我跪下了。我让他平身了,没办法啊没办法。
 
2007 大事就这么几桩,草草记下,以免记忆力衰退以后写不了回忆录,就以此为据吧。谢谢观赏!

今天感恩节


感恩节,每个11月的第4个星期四。
每到这时候,就会提醒我,不要认为我所拥有的一切都是理所当然的。每个我遇见的人,遇见的事,都会为我的生命,打造不同。
 
最应该感谢的是我的父母。年少轻狂的我们,也许只有越加长大,才越能理解父母的艰辛。每次看到那些悄悄爬满父母额头的皱纹,我不禁感叹光阴的飞逝。转眼间,女儿不在你们身边,已经5年了。
父母为我的每一个小小成就感到高兴,也为我的每次小小挫折感到担忧。可是对于父母,我却竟经常忽略。有时候忙于工作,很久才打电话回家一次,对此我真的感到内疚。
每次回到温暖的家,时间就过得特别快。感谢爸爸妈妈,世上我最爱的也是最爱我的人。此时忽然觉得,文字竟然是如此苍白,不能表达我万分之一的感情。
养育之恩岂是一句感谢就能带过的,我一定要做一个令你们骄傲的人。
 
刚刚过去的一天,也是我和亲爱的你在一起2年8个月的纪念日。这又是一个对我的生命意义非凡的人。
不知如何表达才会不显得矫情,但是经历了这么多,只有我们心里最明白吧。当一切浪漫,惊喜都归于平静,维系这份感情的,是包容、理解、支持、信任,这就是我们简简单单彼此依靠的真心吧。
期待更多精彩,在与你并肩同行的明天。
 
 
我也感谢你,我的Manager, Merry Riana。如果没有遇见你,我将会是在哪里?
虽然我知道Merry一定不会看到这些,看到了也不能理解中文,但是我真的从心底里感谢,与你的偶然相遇,改变了我的人生航线。
在你的身上,我学会乐观,学会坚持,学会自信,学会勇敢。Merry于我,亦师亦友,我珍惜我们相处的每一分钟。我失落的时候,你从不吝惜从你繁忙的日程中抽身,陪伴我安慰我;我取得一点点进步,你也都看在眼里,肯定我鼓励我。这样的老板,这样的朋友,这样的姐妹,真的是一份生命中的恩赐了。
我对自己说,我一定不会让Merry失望,一定不会,永远不会;你为我所作出的一切,都不会白费,有一天,我会成为你,Merry Riana, 最为骄傲的一员!

感谢我的每一个客户,感谢你们对我的信任与支持;
也感谢每一个拒绝我的人,感谢你们让我做到一个更好的自己;
感谢每一个带给过我欢笑或泪水的人。 生命有你们才完整。

当然了,也要感谢正在读这篇日志的你,感谢你愿意驻足聆听,我生活中的点点滴滴。
那就不如留下点足迹,让我知道你来过吧。=)

Share A Story: Carrot, Egg or Coffee


This is a meaningful story, and thanks to my best colleague fren who sent it to me. do spend sometime to read it if you happen to visit here.

You will never look at a cup of coffee the same way again...
A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her.
She did not know how. she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting
and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.
 
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water. In the first, she placed carrots, in
the second she placed eggs and the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil
without saying a word.
 
In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a
bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed
it in a bowl. Turning to her daughter, she asked,"Tell me what do you see?"
 
"Carrots, eggs, and coffee," she replied.
 
She brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they got soft.She
then asked her to take an egg and break it.
 
After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.
 
Finally, she asked her to sip the coffee. The daughter smiled, as she tasted its rich aroma. The
daughter then asked. "What's the point, mother?"
 
Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity--boiling water--but
each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard and unrelenting. However after being
subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been fragile. Its thin
outer shell had protected its liquid interior. But, after sitting through the boiling water, its inside
became hardened.
 
The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water they had
changed the water.
 
"Which are you?" she asked her daughter. "When adversity knocks on your door, how do you
respond? Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?"
 
Think of this:  Which am I?
 
Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity, do I wilt and become soft and lose
my strength?
 
Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat? Did I have a fluid spirit,
but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and
stiff?
 
Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and a hardened
heart?
 
Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that
brings the pain. When the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean,
when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you.
 
When the hours are the darkest and trials are their greatest. Do you elevate to another level?
 
How do you handle Adversity? ARE YOU A CARROT, AN EGG, OR A COFFEE BEAN?
 
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough
sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.
 
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; They just make the most of
everything that comes along their way. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past;
you can't go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
MAY WE ALL BE COFFEE!

Something about Career

Today in church, Pastor Melvyn talked about "Career", and it really enlights me in some ways.
 
It is said there is 1/3 of the people out there hate their jobs, because many people cant find fulfillment in their jobs.
 
I thank God I am not the 1/3..
 
But even within the 2/3, most of them are enduring their work.. but thank God I am enjoying...:)
 
When pastor talk about "How can we show excellence in my work", I find it is interesting:
1)Hard work;
2)Honesty;
3)Honor your boss.
Hmm.. i think that is what I have done, am doing and will be doing.. maybe that is the reason why I am doing quite alright?
 
haha... I should not be contented or over-proud.
 
But I am still proud of myself, in career, while others are enduring, I am enjoying. :) Thank God for His plan for me!

last Wednesday, in the POWER HOUSE, we have sung this song, "IF WE HOLD ON TOGETHER"
 
Last time in "flying start", when I was singing I was full of motivation & strength; this time, the feeling is very different.
 
I like this lyrics:
Souls In The Wind, Must Learn How To Bend.
Seek Out A Star, Hold On to The End.
 
learn how to bend.
hold on to the end.
I said "yes" to myself, but tears said no, so they run out to protest..
 
after that, the whole ROCKIE wrote me a letter.
SK said I am the most focused person. (hmm...is it?)
ES said I am always amazing.(hmm.. sure?)
SC said I am his idol.(O, haha, *shy*)
DH said I will become another merry. (cannot let merry see this please)
.............
different people said different things; let me just remember them by taking down here.
but the most touching one comes from him I am not suprised at all:
"Hey Babe,
One word -- TOGETHER!
We'll go thru this and everything else, TOGETHER!!!"
Thank you, it really gives me strength, and although i know you will not visit here, but you always know what I am thinking.
Thank you for being there, my buddy & partner. proud of you. and proud of "P&G". we are always the best.
 
yes Monday comes! Let's embrace the new week with passion &  energy! :D

2007, A Year of Victory

 
好久没有写些什么了。觉得挺遗憾的,在过去的那特别的一个月里面,感觉像是打了一场仗。而我却都没能把自己的生活记录下来,将来回想,又能记起几分?
 
这场战役,最大的敌人是自己,而我现在可以自豪地说,我是一个凯旋的将军!
 
每天日以继夜地打电话,做Roadshow,约见客户;一次次的被拒绝,被打击,被不理解.. 这些辛苦,现在回头想想都是值得的。而且,让我心存感激的是,许多朋友的精神支持与雪中送炭。没有这些挫折,就没有我的成长;而没有这些朋友,就没有我今天的战果。小小的成就没有什么可以炫耀的,但是我自豪的是,我又一次超越了自己的极限。
 
战地报道且让我以后再提。只是不能不提的是,最近我常常想起高考那时的自己,被一个目标一直激励着。那时每当想偷懒的时候,一想到我的目标,便又再一次精神抖擞。那段时间的自己,单纯的可爱,执著的可爱,就是这样,不知不觉间甚至超越了自己原来的目标。
 
似乎是很久,都已经没有再一次那样的体验了。习惯于了空头支票,习惯于了纸上谈兵。在一个月前的一次反思中,我问自己,我是不是还能再做一次,真正超越自己的目标?
 
于是我告诉同事我以前的故事,我告诉他们:"If I am really motivated, No one can stop me, but only myself. I have tried it out. I am serious."
 
有一个声音在跟我说:"You should Follow the promise you've made. If you are really serious."
 
于是有了那紧张刺激屡败屡战的一个月。终于,再一次,我又成功了!我又找回了曾经失落的自己!我自信地说:"Yeah! I've made it! I made my goal serious and I have hit it!"
 
当所有的荣耀已经属于2006,在这新年之际,我们又要开始做新的一年的计划与目标。别让我们的Resolusion成为空谈、梦想;一年到头后,只是空悲切那蹉跎的一年。
 
人生的故事还有很长,我在想,如果我们能把其中的每一个目标都make it serious,不管最终成功与否,生命将成为一首凯歌。

I M Possible

 
27 days to the year end.
 
The only thing I feel now is: STRESS.
 
because now I am on track to my goal.. it is so near yet so far.
 
There are so many anxiety and uncertainty on the way. Fear, doubt & inconfidence. 我是真的很害怕。everyday my brain just focus telling me how much shortfall i still need to clear, sometimes even cannot fall asleep.
 
But I tell myself, cannot give up, I have come so far, don't throw it away! To reach the goal means so much to me, and to my loved ones.
 
December, a "workholic month" for me! 拼了拼了拼了! impossible = I M Possible.
 
I will change the life before life changes me.
 
 
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." -- Matthew 6:33

IF I COULD REACH, HIGHER!!

REACH -- Gloria Estefan
 
Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams, you want with all your heart
And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I made
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
Im gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

Some days are meant to be remembered
Those days we rise above the stars
So I'll go the distance this time
Seeing more the higher I climb
That the more I believe
All the more that this dream will be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
Im gonna be stronger
Know that Ive tried my very best
Id put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
I'm gonna be stronger
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be so much stronger yes I am
Know that I''ve tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the test

If I could reach higher
If I could, if I could,If I could reach
Reach, I'd reach, I'd reach
I'd reach I'd reach so much higher
Be stronger
18 October

Don't give up

 
Ohhh.. How to describe these days.. Bear with me, probably my blog is boring now, but I really need to motivate myself day after day..
 
It is probably the lousiest time I ever had before. two clients are waiting to cancel their plans, even I already spent a lot of time in servicing them; and I sense I started to lose confidence in myself.
 
Since in bad mood, today in roadshow I tried many times but still not on the track of working. I never find life is so challenging before. I don't want my colleagues being negatively influenced by me, so i just hide myself in a corner and cry for a while. It is not the first time I cry after joining this line, but it is indeed the first time i feel myself so vulnerable and helpless!
 
Tears and fears are inevitable; but anyway, let bygones be bygones. tomorrow, I will switch on the "working mode", die die must close case! because I want to be committed into my goals, and I want to make the people who is caring for me, be proud of me.
 
hey gal, don give up! so many dreams are await to reach, so many miracles are await to happen. don't complain, don't grumble, and don't quit! be strong, be bold, and I am not alone.
 
God, I ask for your mercy and help. sometimes when I feel I cannot, please just let me know, I can!
 
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
I WILL NOT GIVE UP
 
 
 
That's the commitment to myself! TOMORROW I WILL BE BACK!!!!!!!
01 October

4 o'clock Miracle

 
Last week is a very tough week, yet I have had a breakthrough and learnt something invaluable indeed.
 
I haven't been closing any cases for nearly three weeks. can say that I almost forgot how to close case already. When I am wondering how could it be, my confidence is also dropping to ever the lowest. I started to doubt myself, is my choice wrong?
 
After getting prospects sitting down one after another but without any production, i really become very fearful. so everytime once got ppl sit down with me again, i have the poverty mindset already.. that means from the beginning I never expect I can close the prospect. I feel so sad especially after five-day hougang roadshow, see colleagues are closing with flying colors, but myself how come so lousy.
 
When i felt tears intended to rush out of my eyes, I asked God, it is written: Ask and it will be given to you. but why not give to me?
God says, "Not by might, not by power, but by the Spirit."
 
I suddenly realised something. through the one month I have learnt a lot of skills in doing sales, but some times I focus too much on the skills itself, yet lost my own advantage, that is the energy level.
Saturday before I was working, I tried every methods to make myself feel energized & motivated. It is the last day and i really want to break the "zero" in hougang.
 
Finally it turns out to be a big victory. I am an overcomer again!
 
Remember in Matthew 14:25, Jesus walking on the water at four o'clock at night.
Why he perform this miracle at 4am, not any other time?
because it is the darkest time of the whole day.
Miracle can always happen when you feel desperate.
Jesus is always there, carrying me to go through the hardship.
 
Next time, I will tell myself, Don't give up. Miracle will happen at 4am!
 
26 September

haha

Just want to say to everybody who read it:
 
   When u came across someone on the street, who asking u to help to do survey, don't reject in a rude manner. Making a life is really not easy.
 
   Today i told myself, cannot eat dinner unless i close a case in the roadshow. then, sadly, I didn't manage to get case closed, as a result, i cannot have dinner until 12 midnight when I went back home.
 
   Life is tough. It takes time. But don't let life change u; u can change the life!
 
   So I determined, tomorrow I am still going to be energized, happy & cheerful. No Matter How Much Rejection I Need to Take.
 
It is just a choice to be happy. My friend, why not let's CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY everyday?! It is wonderful!
17 September

FAITH

 

 

This lady is my manager, Merry Riana. She is the cover lady of the recent <Career Central> Magazine.
She is a fantastic leader + mentor, whom I admire, love, and am proud of.
 
 
 
One day she just stared into my eyes, and said
"Prudence, because I have faith in you."
 
Wept... Wept... Wept...
 
Before that sentence, I could feel discouragement and frustration sometimes everyday.
But after that sentence, what I can feel is only -- I want to do everything that I can to make her proud of me.
 
Merry she said she has faith in me.
Should I lose faith in myself?
 
 
 
Every obstacle is a stepping stone towards success.
Whenever I feel tired, want to give up, or give excuses to slack, I will think of that day, that time, that lady said to me:
 
"Prudence, I have Faith In You!"

Will Be Better

I decided to use this place as a motivational diary.
 
These days are extrodinarily tough. Most of my appointments are cancelled or postponed. When I doing calling I feel I am weak to face rejections. I am a bit desperate and many times I want to cry. my emotion is down and my spirit is low. How can it be? i am still wondering.
 
this week i have no production at all. but actually i expect that i can make a great deal before birthday as a gift to myself. now seems impossible. Anyway got so many things to settle, not only my job, also SM2, etc.. I feel i am exhausted some time. first time I don't expect my birthday at all! a bit disappointed about myself.
 
Yes many times in life I feel I am weak. But I overcame them one after another. I believe this time I am still an overcomer.
 
I must cheer up! I hope everything will get better. My hope is in the Lord.

Living my life, Loving my life

---TO THOSE WHO MAY CONCERN

I am gonna talk about my working life so far... It is sooooo good! Never dreamt of such an incredible career!
 
Frankly speaking I have never thought of being with an insurance company before. I thought it is the incapable ppl who goes there, because they cannot find job elsewhere. I also join insurance kind of no choice, since cannot find my favourite one and dont want to compromise. then join lor, see how.
 
It really turned out to be a miracle. I find myself really fall in love with this job, since I have such a great team, great manager, great career that can makes me a great person!
 
I start to learn how to take rejections. I know I am growing through all these;
I start to challenge myself. I feel motivated all the time;
I start to understand. to understand why God is "unfair", as what i thought before;
I start to recognize and appreciate the career. I know only the most courageous can afford going into it, to reach out for dreams.
I start to love the dream team. I sense the support, love and great help from my colleagues.
 
Thank God brings me out of the darkest time. now I know where am I. I am enjoying working and realise that I am a workholic, haha. Everynight i get home at midnight, then the second day are those brand new challenges ahead. Such a beautiful life for me!
 
Thank you, my manager, Merry Riana, you are my role model, my inspiration and my teacher. My words are not enough to express my gratefulness to you. You are just there in my career, like my mother in my life, like Shao Qi in my spiritual being.
 
Thank you, my dear sisters. Your understanding and support is invaluable to me. Ruth, you are the one always caring, always listening, always understanding...yaoyao, sometimes i didn't share much to u because I don't feel like burdening you, since you are just in university maybe cannot sense what i was sufferring...but all the time you are just there support me, so sweet and so cheerful! Shao Qi, no need to say, you are the witness of the whole journey. without you, my life would have been tougher. all the sisters, thanks for the prayer and concerns. I am back as what I was!
 
Thank you, my darling. these time have been difficult for me, also not easy for you. sorry that I may ignore you sometimes because of the intensive working hours, but I hope some day I can make up for that. thank you for always being there.
 
Thank you, my friend. if you are looking at this article, i know you are concern about me. so happy. =)

这个就是皮耶罗(ZT)

在中国球迷的心目中,从没有哪个球星像皮耶罗这样有着如此大的争议,让人如此又爱又恨。喜欢他的人将他奉若神明,不喜欢他的人则将他贬得一无是处。有人只喜欢刚出道时的皮耶罗,而有人只喜欢尤文图斯的皮耶罗。   

中国球迷真正认识并喜欢上皮耶罗是从他石破天惊的一脚凌空垫射开始的,那是在1994到95赛季意甲联赛同佛罗伦萨队的比赛中,皮耶罗奉献了一脚神来之笔,那一年的皮耶罗只有20岁,是他效力尤文图斯的第二个赛季。初到尤文图斯的日子,也许是皮耶罗最快乐的时光,初出茅庐的他不知道什么叫失落、彷徨和痛苦,他不用面对众人期盼的目光,不用承受重担在身的压力,他唯一要做的就是尽情展示自己的才华,宣泄内心的激情。   

那个赛季是皮耶罗足球生涯的一个里程碑,当时的尤文图斯队中有集球迷万千宠爱于一身的罗伯特.巴乔,但或许是造化弄人,那个赛季巴乔有一段时间受伤缺赛,皮耶罗和维亚利、拉瓦内利组成了三箭头,他的横空出世让球迷们看到了新的救世主,他迅速取代巴乔成为新的“斑马王子”,春风得意的皮耶罗帮助尤文图斯队获得了这个赛季的联赛和杯赛的双料冠军。或许是不愿意自己的光芒被皮耶罗掩盖,或许是同当时的主帅里皮产生矛盾,最终巴乔选择了离开尤文图斯投奔到AC米兰。有人说是皮耶罗挤走了他们心爱的巴乔,这也是皮耶罗受到球迷攻击的一个很重要的原因,这些年来,皮耶罗同巴乔之间的绿茵恩怨一直纠缠不清。

95到96赛季,尤文图斯队在联赛的角逐中输给了巴乔加盟后的AC米兰队,不过,它却进入到了欧洲冠军杯的决赛,在决赛中通过点球大战击败了卫冕冠军阿贾克斯队,11年之后再次捧起了冠军奖杯。在只有21岁的时候,皮耶罗便赢得了几乎所有的冠军头衔,在那一年,他还被评为国际足联年度最佳新人。带着众多的荣誉,皮耶罗入选了萨基的国家队参加了96年欧锦赛,但是,那届欧锦赛意大利队小组赛后便打道回府,皮耶罗也没有得到萨基的器重,他的第一次大赛经历并没有留下什么美好的回忆。

回到俱乐部的皮耶罗又恢复了往日的神勇,在年底进行的丰田杯赛中,正是凭借着他的一个进球尤文图斯队在东京击败了阿根廷的河床队获得了冠军,成就了尤文图斯队世界冠军的霸业。这时候,人们发现,在对方禁区前沿的左侧,皮耶罗简直就是一个无所不能的王者,在这里他可以随心所欲,让对手胆战心惊,这一区域被球迷们定义为“皮耶罗区域”,那里是他征服对手的领地。   

96到97赛季,尤文图斯的阵容发生了很大的变化,维亚利、拉瓦内利等老将先后离去,维埃里、齐达内的加盟使球队变得更加强大,这个赛季是皮耶罗真正成熟的一个赛季,他已经逐渐成为了尤文图斯的核心,帮助球队重新夺回了失去的联赛冠军,并且再度闯入了冠军杯的决赛,但在决赛中,夺冠呼声很高的尤文图斯队却意外地输给了多特蒙德队,不过,皮耶罗在比赛中的一个巧妙的脚后跟进球却再度显示出了他秀丽的脚法和超人的足球意识。   

97到98赛季的意甲冠军争夺是近几个赛季最为激烈也是最为好看的,现在回想起来,那个赛季的意甲迷也应该是最幸福的,尤文图斯和国际米兰、皮耶罗和罗纳尔多的颠峰对决牵动了无数球迷的心弦。就个人成就而言,皮耶罗在那个赛季达到了自己事业的鼎盛时期,他的光芒让初涉意甲的“外星人”罗纳尔多变得黯然失色。那一年,他和因扎吉组成了意甲最炙手可热的锋线组合,两个同样年轻的年轻人成为了进球和胜利的代名词,在这对双子星座的引领下,尤文图斯队摘取了第25个意甲联赛的冠军,皮耶罗也被球员联盟评选为意大利年度最佳球员。在冠军杯中,尤文图斯队连续第三个赛季杀进了决赛,但是,米亚托维奇的一脚让尤文图斯连续第二年吞下了亚军的苦果,对皮耶罗来说更痛苦的是在比赛中同卡洛斯的一次相撞使他险些错过了自己的第一次世界杯之旅。   

幸运的是,皮耶罗在世界杯前及时恢复,在98年的法兰西之夏,尽管主教练老马尔蒂尼力排众异让他而不是巴乔首发,但是皮耶罗却屡屡辜负老马尔蒂尼的用人不疑,他的表现有如梦游一般,球迷们在场上看到的是一个频频马失前蹄、找不到球门方向的皮耶罗,意大利队在1/4决赛中被东道主法国人点球封杀。人们在回顾1998年世界杯上的意大利队时会称赞维埃里的勇猛,会津津乐道于巴乔的老骥伏枥,会慨叹点球大战的残酷,但是很少有人会想起还有一个黯然神伤的斑马王子皮耶罗,一切的荣辱似乎都和他毫无关系,这对一个球员来说恐怕是最大的悲哀了。   

失落归失落,但生活还是要继续,逃离了法兰西的皮耶罗本想在新赛季里重新证明自己,但是,1998年11月8日,也就是在皮耶罗24岁生日的前一天,在同乌迪内斯队的比赛中,皮耶罗的左膝韧带严重受伤,这是他运动生涯中最为致命的一次受伤,而这次受伤,使他几乎缺席了剩下的赛季。在赛季的最后阶段,皮耶罗终于重新回到了赛场上,但是这时的皮耶罗却丧失了以前的灵性和想象力,他几乎失去了在运动战中进球的能力,在连续的两个赛季中,在他的17个进球当中居然有10个点球,以至于球迷们送给了他一个“点球先生”的称号。在很长的一段时间里面,皮耶罗总给人一种心事重重的感觉,这也难怪,接连的伤痛和失利使得他背负了过重的心理包袱,不过皮耶罗是幸运的,主教练安切洛蒂给了他最大的支持和鼓励,这让皮耶罗至今感激不尽。终于在2000年5月7日,在尤文图斯队主场同帕尔马队的联赛中,皮耶罗打破了运动战的进球荒,为了这个进球,球迷们和皮耶罗一起苦苦等待了567天!   

随着皮耶罗的逐渐复苏,国家队再次向他召唤,但是,2000年的欧锦赛又是皮耶罗的一次噩梦之旅,在同法国队的决赛中,皮耶罗接连鬼使神差般地浪费了两次绝佳的单刀机会,而他只要抓住其中的任何一次,这届欧锦赛的历史就会被改写,但是,命运之神却残忍地捉弄了皮耶罗,当特雷泽盖打进金球的一刹那,皮耶罗颓然地瘫倒在了地上,他的心中到底是遗憾还是悔恨,那一刻恐怕只有皮耶罗自己知道。一时间,球迷、媒体的漫骂铺天盖地地袭向皮耶罗,他们甚至将他称为意大利的国家罪人,而曾经十分抢手的皮耶罗的球衣也成了球迷们泄愤的对象,被公开撕毁。   

为什么在俱乐部一帆风顺,而一到了国家队便变得不会踢球了,对此皮耶罗自己也百思不得其解,欧锦赛后的是皮耶罗足球生涯中最黯淡的一段日子,无论是在俱乐部队还是在国家队,他都不得不开始适应做替补的生活。祸不单行的是,在生活中,皮耶罗也遭受到了沉痛的打击。2001年2月18日,皮耶罗61岁的父亲观看了尤文图斯队同那不勒斯队的比赛,第67分钟替补上场的皮耶罗在终场前6分钟打进一球,这个球没想到却成了皮耶罗献给自己父亲的最后的礼物,患有癌症的父亲在第二天不幸离开了人世。这一次,皮耶罗向人们展示了自己坚强的一面,在父亲去世后三天,尤文图斯队客场对阵巴里,皮耶罗在终场前9分钟打进了全场唯一的一球,他也用这个进球告慰了父亲的英灵。   

02/03赛季的意甲冠军争夺球迷们不会忘记尤文图斯奇迹般的反败为胜、罗纳尔多伤心的眼泪,当然他们也不会忘记一场普通但又特别的比赛,在尤文图斯同巴乔领军的布雷西亚的比赛中,皮耶罗打进了两个进球帮助尤文图斯队比取胜,在同巴乔的“9号半”的较量中,皮耶罗赢了,他同巴乔之间的恩恩怨怨以这种方式作出了了断。这同时也是世界杯参赛名额之争,最终,特拉帕托尼选择了皮耶罗而放弃了巴乔。   不过在韩日世界杯上,皮耶罗要做托蒂的替补,但经历了浮浮沉沉的他对此心如止水,他清楚自己唯一要做的就是等待机会,等待证明自己的机会。终于,在对墨西哥队的最后一场小组赛中,压抑了许久的皮耶罗找到了一个爆发的机会,他终场前5分钟关键入球挽救了悬崖边上的意大利队。这个进球让他在同韩国队的1/8决赛中赢得了首发的机会,但是,同韩国队的那场比赛给皮耶罗和他的意大利队再次留下了一段痛苦的回忆,皮耶罗始终无法摆脱每逢重大国际比赛便遭受厄运的宿命。   

当韩日世界杯的硝烟散尽皮耶罗重新回到阿尔皮球场开始新赛季的时候,球迷们看到了一个全新的形象的皮耶罗,这个新形象果然给皮耶罗带来了好运,无论是在联赛还是冠军杯中皮耶罗都频频进球,尤其是在他备受批评的国家队中,皮耶罗也开始承担起了进球的重任,人们重新看到了那个轻灵飘逸的尤文金童,看到了超级皮耶罗的重生,看到了斑马王子的回归。在上赛季里皮耶罗率领尤文图斯队夺得第27个联赛冠军,今年夏天,他要再次代表意大利队出征欧锦赛,他仍然要继续证明自己,重新赢回那些失去的球迷的心。

2003年11月9日,皮耶罗刚刚度过了自己28岁的生日,从9年前初出茅庐时的那个尤文图斯金童到如今已经成为尤文图斯的旗帜,皮耶罗所走过的道路充满了艰辛,他经历了大起大落、品尝了大喜与大悲。   

皮耶罗少年得志年少成名,从这方面讲他是幸运的,但是皮耶罗又是不幸的,他经历了太多本不该属于他的磨难。皮耶罗曾经说过,球迷嘘我,我并不介意也不灰心,因为我知道他们是在激励我,因为他们爱我!而当我克服一个困难后,我也不会狂喜,因为我知道还有更多更艰苦的困难在等着我去征服!正是坎坷的足球经历磨砺了皮耶罗这种不以物喜、不以己悲的成熟心态。皮耶罗已经用他复杂的经历书写了一段绿茵传奇,在许多年之后,当我们打开尘封的记忆,当我们再次回忆起尤文图斯的金童的时候,他又会给我们带来怎样的感动、留下怎样的回忆呢?

 

我我我...终于更新了!

最近竟然都没什么心情更新。beibei留言说,竟然意大利得了冠军也不见我更新,我自己也惊讶了。
 
一个月前的世界杯,是我看了最多比赛的一次,也是我最开心的一次了。自然是因为意大利,这支带给我太多灰色记忆太多泪水的蓝色舰队,终于捧起了大力神杯,绣上了四颗星,没有再一次让我失望了。
 
可是,那又怎么样呢,一个月前的狂喜已经淡去,现在要面对的,是尤文图斯的降级与扣分的厄运。
 
语言已是多余,能做的一切只是等待。让我们静静的等待,就像曾经等待我们的队长... ...
 
 
 
一生有你 水木年华   
 
以为梦见你离开
我从哭泣中醒来
看夜风吹过窗台
你能否感受我的爱

等到老去的一天
你是否还在我身边
看那些誓言谎言
随往事慢慢飘散

多少人曾爱慕你年轻时的容颜
可是谁能承受岁月无情的变迁

多少人曾在你生命中来了又还
可知一生有你我都陪在你身边

 

尤文图斯,一生有你。

潇潇受骗记

高欣早早约我这个星期二下班后去逛街,我欣然应允,大减价以来还没有人陪我去血拼呢。
 
周一晚上她还提醒我,dear, don't forget tomorrow our date ya! Certainly not~~
 
快下班的时候她给我发个短信说,她要迟一点,要我等她一下。好喽,反正我这边也要开个小会,时间应该差不多吧。
 
开会开到一半的时候,Dorothy, 我的supervisor, 打电话给我,让我赶紧回办公室。什么事这么紧急?心里竟然有一种不祥的预感。
 
还没走到办公室里,她远远看见我,就赶紧向我招手,我三步并作两步跑过去,想,难道是我今天的工作有质量问题?这么着急。
 
到她面前,她把一大束花放到我手上。我很是疑惑,心里盘算了一下今天不是妇女节不是儿童节不是青年节不是我生日,情人节就更没谱了。所以这花应该不是她送我的,那就应该是她的。那为什么她的花,却要我帮她拿呢?
 
他继续说,走,跟我去见一个人。
 
见一个人?那和花有什么关系?难道Dorothy要“颁奖“给那个人,然后让我做礼仪送上鲜花?我真是百思不得其解。
 
一路上好好观察了一下这束花。好漂亮。6朵怒放的鲜红玫瑰,配上粉红的娇小的康乃馨,还有雏菊、勿忘我、满天星作为点缀。这么美丽的花束,送给情人应该是最合适不过了。但是现在却要作为“奖品”,马上就不属于我了,真是可惜啊。
 
走着走着,到门口了。竟然聚集着一大群同事。哇,什么人物,大家都来看热闹?再定睛一看----我的眼珠子差点掉出来。整个人就傻在那里了。
 
那帮同事都笑了,心满意足地下班了;Dorothy问我,你男朋友为什么不敢直接送花给你啊?哈哈哈哈。
 
我彻底受到惊吓。--你不是说6月2号回来的吗?--对呀,可是我改变主意了,想给你个惊喜。--你怎么找到Dorothy的?--问了很多人都说不认识你,刚好她走过来,说就是她手下的intern.所以大家都聚在这里看热闹呢。
 
--好吧,你先等一下,我要回去把会开完。
 
回去开会的时候神情恍惚,我是在做梦吗?刚才发生的是真的吗?那束花是我的?他回来了?
 
但是晚上还和高欣说好要逛街的。怎么办呢,只好希望她不要介意做电灯泡了,我还得好好想想怎么和她解释这个突如其来的事情。
 
开完会了,下班,在门口对他说,待会儿高欣还要和我逛街,我们一起吧。
 
嘿嘿。你以为高欣真的会和你逛街。那都是我的计谋,为了事先把你的时间预留,防止你有别的安排。高欣是我的同伙。他说,边说边从衬衫口袋里掏出两张一个小时前刚买的电影票,拉着我进了电梯。
 
晕。我完全受骗上当。
 
好你个高欣。演得还真像呵。我服了你们了。
