Month of December

This month has been a slow moving but some things happened in this month that made me change my focus a little...

Starting off with a relaxing trip to Penang after Ken's exams. Was blessed with the trip. Think I didnt fork out a single cent at all... Heh... Thanks to Kelvin and my mom... Yeah, and really thank God cos I was pretty tied after all the taxis - reimbursement havent come in... Yep...

Then went for 2 whole weeks of training, quite boring and slack. Met up some old good buddies for dinner and movie... Also went gym... Think for the first time since I joined my co!!! Ermz... Hey... Dun look at me like that... At least I got started... Hahaha...

Yep... Then after training was xmas le... Went to get presents alone... Ken was having incamp training... So sad... Lugged the things home myself... So ke lian... Hahaha... But I did it!!! Yeah...

Then was the xmas services... Was prepared to go for all, go all out for the friends. Yeah, bring them in and let them experience the love of God... So on eve of xmas eve, went and attended svc 1 and 2... Went home after dinner and slept...

Then my mom woke me up at slightly before 6. And asked me wat I was planning to do that day. I said 'go church lo...' you muz understand, I slept pretty late the nite b4 and sleep was really precious. Then she asked if i can bring my dad to hospital. I was shocked. Still laying in bed... I asked her wat happened. She said my dad was in pain. And she has to go work cos it was Sun. Most crowded... Then she asked... "Can you dun go church?"

At that point in time, in my heart, I was thinking "Huh, but I really want to go". On the other hand, I know that my mom seldom ask me for help and she really had no choice le. I heard my dad vomiting in his room. My heart stirred. I asked God for guidance. I asked God to help me. I asked the Holy Spirit why muz this happen to me? I was really troubled... In the end, I went to hospital with my dad. I msged Ken to let him know I wont be able to make it for the morning service. And was prepared to pack my things and cabbed down to hospital. Then Ken replied ==> so he's up... I asked him to send my dad to hospital instead, can save some money and Ken can show his concern also...

I msged weemin to let her know I might not be able to make it back to serve cos dunno if my dad needs to be admitted. At the same time, I was updating Ken abt my dad and my mom also... I didnt want the cg to know so that it will not affect them. Think really no one knew that I wasnt ard during S3... Hahaha... Think only yan and Ken know from the cg...

After the doc checked my dad and everything settled, we went home by cab then on the way my dad was saying, if I need to go out, can go ahead. I really thank God for such an understanding dad... I made sure he was comfortably rested on his bed and listed a list of things to do for my siblings b4 I left for church... Managed to attend S4 and S5. Really by the grace of God...

On boxing day I decided to apply leave and stay home. My siblings were in school. My dad was in bad pain again. So bad that on xmas day he couldnt even get off his bed... I called Ken to come over and help me support my dad to the clinic for a jab. Supporting him and shielding him from the rain with the umbrella, we managed to bring him to the clinic and back.

These few days I saw my dad cry... I was really very troubled. Cos he has a very high tolerance for pain and this muz have hurt so badly. And there was nothing I could do. The painkillers didnt help much also... As xing called me to talk abt giving bs to the friends, I was not in the mood at all. I was thinking abt my family... I realised I havent been spending much time with them. Havent been giving a lot of myself to this family... I made a decision, 2007... I will spend more time with my family. Invest in them... For where my treasure is, there my heart will be also...

Today is 29th le... Going for thanksgiving cg later... Then tml going dim sum buffet... Then dinner with my engagement team's friends... Then Sun will be duty and then countdown at Ken's aunt's place and guess what? It will be 2007 le!!! WOW!!! Time really flies. In 2006, so many things happened... 1st mission trip... 1st time on the plane... So many couples got married... Hahahaha.... I wonder what 2007 will be full of.... 2007, here I come!!!

Thank God! Hallelujah!!!

Am going through training for these 2 wks. Today was the most eventful day. I was very sleepy today... Think cos of the rain, makes u wanna sleep... Then havent been sleeping a lot for the past few days... Even though I slept relatively early last nite but think it's nt enough to cover the lack of sleep the previous days... So I made coffee for myself during the break...

Then while drinking, and surfing the net... My notes fell to the ground. In shock I jerked upwards and I spilt my drink over the laptop and my pants... It also splashed onto siewling's white jacket... So sorry, gal... I didnt mean to one...

Immediately, I grabbed any tissue I could find to clean and dry my laptop... and tried to drain the coffee out... but it was still a little wet. My fren told me to bring to IT immediately so that they can service it... Like take out everything to dry and fix it back... So... I guai guai, brought it out to IT... The guy looked at it and asked me to fill up a form...

Later on when I went back wanting to collect, he told me need to write a report on how the coffee spill. And address to the boss for approval to change the keyboard cos sticky. I almost fainted... The BOSS!!! Had I knew need to go so high up I wouldnt have sent it in for servicing. Just use tissue to clean it... Haiz... I was like jialat jialat... The IT guy quite nice la, showed me a sample to follow... I was running in and out of the training room the whole day. Even as the facilitator was going thru the notes, I was switched off liao.... Thinking how to write the letter, or how to get back my laptop without going up to the boss. I couldnt take it any longer. I wanted so much to cry... But i know it wouldnt help the situation at all. I held back my tears... I lost my appeitite and didnt eat my lunch...

In my heart, I was praying very hard. God, let this thing pass without having to go up to the boss. Help me close this case. Give me favour with the IT ppl. They dun have to change my keyboard for me. I just want my laptop back. I kept praying and praying.

I managed to do up the letter just before the day ended and brought it to IT dept. The IT guy asked me to sign and take back my laptop... It was fixed... He said that this time round let me pass... No need to get approval from the boss. My prayers were really answered!!! I was so so so happy. And at the back of my head, I was praising God...

Then I went for nursery dinner for some of us... The food was nice... But dear wasnt able to go cos of reservice. But the dinner went well, so good la... But if dear were ard, then it would be the best day liao... Yeah!!!! Really thank God for today...

Jio me out!!!

This week has been passing so slowly for me... Everyday I'm like why nobody jio me out? I've already said that I'm free... Just cos my ah dear dear nt ard for me means I got no other life? No other friends? Haiz... Managed to chit chat with ppl on the phone for hours... But have been going out on my own... Like a loner like that... Also reaching out to friends.... Mostly thru sms cos that's how we'll communicate... Meet up for tea, meals dun really work for my friends... But anyway... Have been planning lots of things to do to keep myself busy...

Hehe... Like planning to go gym but ended up didnt go cos went xmas shopping instead... Also got worked out la... Kekeke... Deceiving myself? Hahahaha... Also went prayer meeting and bible study during the week. Feel so weird without Ken ard... Like no where to go other than the shopping malls... And home to the comp games... Where are my friends??? But thank God that my friend will be joining me tml at Pitstop... And I think xmas I've have friends too... I am not a loner!!! But do feel a little lonely now that Ken's in camp for these 2 weeks... And I having training... Can leave office early.... Haiz... Lonely but not loner... ...

I'm back!

Just came back from Penang... A well rested trip, shopped til we dead... Hahaha... We started shopping at 1330, and left the place ard 2030!!! All the 6 of us!!! Hahaha... Think the guys should be awarded prizes for efforts and for conquering shopping... Heh... I bought a soft toy... Hmmmm.... Should I say a small bolster?

This is the 2nd one I have after the taiwan emerge... The 1st one was a mickey mouse that the brothers shot down for me. This time it's a garfield small bolster... Hee... Ken bought it... We went back and activated every one to help find back that shop... Cos the shopping centre is so big and so messy that we couldnt find it the 2nd time round... So took some time... Bit really like it a lot, it's so cute... Thanks my ah dear dear...

Watched lots of movies too... On the bus, cos nothing else to do and didnt wanna read cos bad lighting.. So just watched tv.... hehe....

I'm leaving soon

I'll be leaving for Penang on Wed nite... After BS... Think this is a good time to leave and relax, recharge and reflect... As the year comes to an end, it's time to evaluate myself... The things that I've done in this year... The ppl I've impacted in this year... The ppl I've touched...

And to start planning what I wanna do in the next year... Setting my career path too... To stay or to look for greener pastures... Lots of things to think abt... Lots... I got to organise my thoughts, my mind...
