by Say Zhi Hao

I am Say Zhi Hao. Some people call me “Say” and it just kind of stuck. My friends call me, “Hao,” or “Zhi Hao.” On the internet, I am called Jeremiah Say – it is for the angmos who cannot pronounce Chinese names accurately.

About Mr Say

  • Love to play soccer – excel in playing at unconventional positions such as a Center Back, a Full Back or Defensive Midfielder – I want to be the best defender I can ever be to help any team I am in defensively
  • Love to read – buying a Kindle back in 2014 is by far the best investment
  • Love to travel – as with most adventurers, I hope my work and travel will be inextricably intertwined
  • Love to work on projects that matter – I am currently working on the H&R Boutique project & another mysterious one
  • I am a sinner saved by grace – honestly, if without God and church life (currently attending Hope Singapore), I don’t know where I’d be today

I am an ordinary guy who enjoys spending most of his time alone. Born an introvert and was a nerd in primary school. Got bullied quite a bit then and that’s why I turned from a nerd to a wannabe jerk. In short, I am a hybrid of a nerd and a jerk. Somewhere in between is what I am.

I am 99% angel but… oh that 1%”

I tried to be a nerd, I failed.
I tried to be a badass, I failed. 
Who am I? I guess I am just an ordinarily imperfect guy.
– Say Zhi Hao

Listed down my first checklist on this blog on July 2018, the purpose of checklist-ing is to list down all the things I have done for the day. I want to be honest with myself and improve just 1% every day. A mere percent every day regardless of how bad my day may be. If I can improve 1%, I’d consider that a good day. If I can’t, I fail and I will do better the next day. Simple as that.

Another important category of Ministry of Say is Journal. I wrote my first journal on 28 December 2018. I read somewhere that listing down 3 grateful things and writing about a positive experience for 2 minutes every day could significantly enhance happiness. I don’t know how true this is but I know I’d like to be a tad happier. That is why I started Journaling.

Finally, a good reason for starting this blog is because I want to be updating my life digitally so when I look back years from now I would have the ability to look at the different life stages that I went through, the adventures that I took, the knowledge that I’ve had gained etc. either in text formats or images or both. I believe that ministryofsay.com will be sentimental – at least for me I know it will be – so that is why I do what I do.
