Just because you're ready to receive forgiveness for your transgressions, does not mean that others are ready to forgive you. Be patient; remain prayerful and God will work it out in His own time. When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life.
Manic ! Freaky Friday
Got up with full of spirit today. Arrive at work; short of staff on the operation floor today. Me and Aidan the new baby on board help to assist where we can.
Since the Heathrow shut down due to blizzard, it creates phenomenal chaos around the world. Our concierge floor has become lost & found department. Luggage went missing, delay and so on. Its like walking down memory lane for me. Been a while since I dealt with these personnel.
According MH Lost & Found department ; they themselves have been 'super busy'. I guess its part of the holiday season as well. Some companies are half day today, since Christmas fall on Saturday.
My boss Brian is away since morning to MH for meeting, still not in yet. Left Erma alone to mend the floor with Jay for the BMW Mobile Care.
I m honestly enjoy the day though its busy, good opportunity for me to feel what is it like to be on the job. My training for two new skillset also postponed till Monday 27th. Hope I will manage to complete it. Overall my office is quiet today.
Ms Joanne Wong - stand in OM from Singapore belanja us Nonya Kuih today....eat and eat and eat again. Its like to die for !...yummy ! Joanne will off to London for 3 months. She's being promoted to Operations Manager, undergo training before taking up the sit in Singapore alarms centre.
Received an email from Dalia in Syria. She said, it snow pretty good in Damascus this year. Its fun to walk along the shops and streets...how I envy that. She plan a cosy Christmas party with friends. Lucky for her, the boyfriend has not left yet for the new job in Dubai. Otherwise it will be lonely Christmas.
Dalia also mentioned about a concert recently in Damascus by Bryan Adams...I went for Bryan Adams like ages ago when he came down to Malaysia...hmmm time passed and am old... :)
My list of things to do still a bee line...I m excited !..still unable to decide of what to do for Shan's birthday. I've called up Prego Restaurant in Westin today. Guess what ?..the Brunch rate is now MYR298++ per person..damm it !...it was only MYR110++ when it first started. Sigh ! I dine for Brunch with Dev Anand then...the good old day...miss that though ..right Dev san ?
Dev bought me perfume for my birthday...Christian Dior...gonna see him next Tuesday...excited !

On the first day of Christmas my true love send to me.......
finally its over !....big fat luncheon with turkey, black paper lamb, sesame chicken, roasted veggies, bread pudding...finger licking good !...
The caroling competition ; my team got 2nd place. We sang Rudolph The Red-nose Reindeer...instead of our own version for 12 Days for Christmas. It was fun. Joanna's group - PEOPLE won the competition. They are very cute and creative. Even my team - INNOVATION go extra mile to wear red shirt and black pants...decorates our self with funky hats.
back on the job after lunch ; I've made a call to one of the limousine company in USA. Had a light chat with the call centre person ; she is based in Denver. Apparently snow falls there were great not like some part of the world. I've activated couple of travel insurance to London these few days. Hope all went well.
Its passed 6pm, am waiting for Shan to pick me up. I m dead tired too. Great day above all ; my crazy boss Brian is a good entertainer....laugh my lung out all the time..plus all those crazy CSEs we have..this operation floor ROCKS!!

Twelve days to the Rabbit
As fourth in the cycle of the 12 animals representing each Chinese New Year, the rabbit is a symbol of endurance according to Chinese mythology
I like that word endurance. The least I know what I m getting into. Lately am such a believer of 'energy' and taking counts on the important aspect of surrounding. Although my religious believe is not being affected in any way, I tend to feel the aura or 'energy' surrounding me. I re arrange my bedroom, keep the house double clean than usual. Make my present around the house frequent than usual. It feels good to have a sanctuary. Home sweet Home !
I just finished flipping through December edition of Marie Claire. I just love this mag. Its awesome ! One of the article read ; 40 crazy things to do before NYE. Its pretty fun and bold.
Glanced through my 2010 'Wish List'....I must say ; am blessed to have at least 70% of the list has been materialised. A pat on my back man !...I just love it. And am grateful of course..
My new 2011 Wish list is already a bee line, with minimum to carry forward from 2010. The back log, just need a rescheduled...all should be in order. Hmm..need to have contingency wish list and always be prepare for the worst and give out my best !
First thing first...in the morning I m gonna pull that bathroom scale out. Its time to watch over my waist line again. Its the failure from 2010...am not gonna fail again.
On a quest to start a new life, you will face a lot of challenges and uphill battles that will try to bring you down. Fears will arise that will make you stumble and the only way to stop them is to face them! As a friend, I would like you to know life will knock us down but we can choose to get back up. Remember - Always be strong… Root that in your heart.

Ho ! Ho ! Ho !
Things are going smoothly, good and according to my wish. My sister Anne drop by couple of days back. I think moving forward I want to make a point to have lunch with my two sisters at least once a month. Just gather around
and chit chat...we are growing and aging...time passed awaits no one.
We definitely unable to catch back whats gone but we can improve for the future. I am bless with lots of thing. Thankful for everything. No matter what is the situation..nothing has beat grave time !
I had a deep talk with Kakak two days ago...sharing with her. It makes me feel good to be able to spread around the positiveness. I told her to start reading back. Improve her lifestyle. Who knows should the opportunity comes, she might be on the job again. All hard work over the years will go to waste if we just stop and let time passed.
Me and my best friend...well, we have our differences. I just hope and pray things will get smooth for her and soon to realize how much she has wasted her life on someone that's not worth a single cent ! I m not having an angel either but he is not a devil from the 7th level that's for sure. We grew apart in a way because there is so little to talk about. Her biggest worry is her heart and mind are not working together. She is constantly following her heart. I do love her still as a good friend, until she help herself there is nothing I can do about it.

Abah, Mak, Adik Ayin, Yan and Baby Danny !
Took leave on Monday the 6th December 2010. I went back to visit my parent on Saturday...stayed over till Tuesday. Its raining cats and dogs..but Its was rather good sign….staying around beach area…scorching sun ! The day I arrived it was raining till the next morning. Nice to sleep.
Everyone at home is fine and I can’t wait to play with Danny. He observed me and Shan for a while …the next day he came to us already.
On Sunday morning, we hit to the beach. Since it rain the day before…the wave was rather high…we proceed nonetheless…had fun ! We were swept off to the shore. Giggle and laugh…we played about 30 mins and return home.
Electricity were out at about 2pm till 5pm…lucky us its landed property…we laze around at the verandah….windy. Had a good chat with my parent and sister. Talked about things that happen around us..my new workplace...all those good and bad years.
I like the way my parents brought us up..and the way their mindset. My father especially..his mind and vision always 10 steps ahead of current thinking. My parents aged gracefully...little worry and spend their daily routine with no serious obstacles.
He planned to expand his bedroom; more spacious. As the current rooms now are only 4 which each of us occupy when we return. I told Shan...moving forward..if we still have to stay in separate rooms when visiting my parents..i rather come back alone. He grinned and said NOTED !...we laugh..
The rest of days were just relax and unwind. Hit back to KL on Tuesday.
I m currently in the office...awaits my lunch with Joanna at 2pm. My boss Brian Ong cracking jokes...had fun. Hope the day ends smoothly. I am still on training...lots more skill set to be learned. Am taking one step at a time.
It is in the stillness, in the silence, that the word of God is to be
heard. There is no better avenue of approach to this Word than through
stillness, through silence. It is to be heard there as it is - in that
unself-consciousness, for when one is aware of nothing, that word is
imparted to him and clearly revealed.

Leaf, mercy, wind and Love !
A leaf which falls from the tree is at the mercy of wind
it goes wherever wind takes it..
be the wind to drive others
not the leaf to be driven by others.
Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow
The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
Remember always that you not only have the right to be an individual
you also have an obligation to be one.
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything.
They just make the most of everything, that comes along their way.
In life LOVE is never planned nor
does it happen for a reason.
But when LOVE is real,
It becomes your PLAN for life
and your reason for living.
Progress has little to do with the speed,
But much to do with direction.
So alwayz concentrate on your direction,
Not on the speed
it goes wherever wind takes it..
be the wind to drive others
not the leaf to be driven by others.

See No Evil ! Speak No Evil ! Talk No Evil !
The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.
I wish to share an incident that happen right in front of my eyes…it took place several weeks ago. I have not found the correct words to digest and reveal it.
On the eve on diwali, me and my best friend with her sister had lunch at one of the stall near Pekeliling bus station. The food was delicious. Upon arrival, there was a blind man..young in his early 20s..seated and ready to have his lunch. We watch with sympathy and I had a small taught to pay for that lunch later. He finished up and request for an assistant since he need to washed his hand….the stall worker hurry up to assist ; out of the blue the owner of the stall just commented that…’blind as you are..no need to take advantage..washed it your own can or not ?!!!”….all of us there got shock !...what on earth is this elderly stall owner is thinking ?..that man is blind for god sake !...he continue to scold him…”I know that u are blind but no need to take advantage like this..requesting people to wash your hand !”
Honestly at this point, my stomach dry. My plate of lunch suddenly taste from hell...its so sinful...I m unable to digest anymore.
This blind man then reply…”why is that dear sir, you said such a thing to me…I only request for an assistance. I m not even asking this meal for free…am paying for it.” The owner responded….”no need to pay..someone already paid for you”…..my heart sank deep !
….he said
..may one day you see the world through my eyes…all those that God given ..often human always forget to be greatful…..I maybe disable…but I am glad I don’t have your heart….now I know why my eyes is blind…so I don’t have to see a human like you….
he walked away.
I pull a deep breath and said to my friend….how could the owner behave such. We are the one with no disability…no impairment or deformity…saying such words to a disable person. We no need to bring ourselves down to his level…his path already tough enough. I wonder who is actually born with disability.
This is just one of those I've witness. At times during our meal..often we being approached by beggar..blind person ...give them a dollar and off they go. I was asked by a friend once..she question me why did i support it cause its a fraud. I said...a dollar from my purse won't make me poor. I give out of sympathy and sincere. If its a fraud or syndicate...let she/he deal with HIM up there...just a dollar won't drain my purse..I've got nothing to lose...
My own pet brother ; the notorious human ..wasted his life as if he got another spare one if he loses this one. Drugs, women, alcohol..name it...but above all..deep inside him...is the most humble and loving man I ever know. I was having tea with him one evening...usual scenario ; a blind person approached...I gave a dollar..
my pet brother then asked him...have he eaten or if he wish to have a drink ? Quickly he accepted...thereafter he came back to us and thank us. This blind man words still stuck to my mind till today....he said to my pet brother....many may not like you cause the way your life is ; my dear brother...may god bless your kindness with thousand blessing...I have nothing to offer rather than a sincere thank you...a glass of that water...mean more than dollar and cent
All I did at that point was gently wipe my teary eyes. Who are we to judge one another...who are we to questioned HIS creation..and what have we learned from one another and have we given our level best to this life ?
Or are we still busy looking for what we don't have till we forget about what we have ?...
