Searching

Another week had passed by without me realizing it. Learning more and more new things each day made me realized how little I know. Time had come once again for another season of changes. No one know what lies ahead but we can only try to overcome each obstacles as they come along.
Life is never fair and people should not expect everything to go smoothly for them the way they want it. Realized long ago that every person has their own purpose and destiny to fulfil and therefore, I can only walk toward it. Comfort come in different ways and for some people, they have to be the one to find the answer for their own. When they are alone, dun ask why things are going this way. They had to constantly learn to drive against the waves and overcome through trials and difficulties. Perhap, perhaps the answer is already in their hearts and they are just not willing to accept the facts. A stubborn heart cannot be opened unless the person allow it.
As each day passes by, many are still in the midst of searching for their main purposes in life. Will I find my true purpose and accept it or will I reject it? Life is unpredictable and I can only look toward the future where I will find my joy that no one can take it away from me.

New Beginning

14 Aug 2006 marked another new chapter of my working life. Changing from a 'US' company to a "JP" company was much different from what I thought. Besides the workplace where there is not much privacy, the people I'm working with is also much different. Everyone are trying to be the best and fierce competition is expected.
The work environment is more efficient compared to where I come from. Every thing is expected to be fast and I had to be operating at 120% in order to grasp the new concepts and knowledge thrown to me. Once the work is shown once, I'm expected to know how to do it the next time round. Haha!! Had I regret changing job? Maybe a little of course....however people had to learn to grow and continue to walk toward a better future.
Though I wanted to relax all the time, I realized that the new work environment is a new battle ground where I need to fend for myself. To grow or to die!!! At the third day of the week, I had already felt as if I worked the whole week as I had to learnt all the new stuffs and read through files and files of notes.
Nevertherless, the new workplace provide lots of opportunity for growth which I liked personally. Not much activity going on for the past one week as I'm too tired at the end of the day to go out at times. Haha!! Hopefully, my weekend will be better and last but not least, I like to wish HC a "Happy Birthday Dear!!! Hahaha...."

Coming To An End- The Last Chapter

Today mark the second last working day in my current company. Nothing much to do at this point of time as most of the things had been hand over to my fellow colleagues. Feeling bored at this time hence writing my blog now. Haiz....anyway, let wish S'pore a belated Happy National Day here.
How did I spend my National Day yesterday? Woke up in the afternoon which was a much needed rest from my tired body. Met up wif ron, web, faye, hartley & mountain ard 1 plus for lunch b4 going to Kbox for some singing session once again. Learnt a lot of new and interesting songs. Proceed to Grand hotel to watch the National Parade on tv and it's the first time I'm watching NP with so many friends other than while I'm serving the army. Another new experience for me this year.
Supper was at the food street beside Esplanade where the six of us had to dash through mountain and mountain of people b4 we reached the destination. (Felt as if I'm at another country)
Played pool at Marina Square b4 calling it off a day. Busy lifestyle recently with lots of activities which I enjoyed at the expenses of my health and many other forms. Sometimes maturity can only be mould thru experiences of life. Turning a deaf ear and trying to run away is part of the process. What lies in the end? I dun know and let me juz continue to be wilful for this period of time.
Though the road seem to be dark and unknown right now, hope is not all lost and salvation can come in many ways and forms. God always work in ways we never know and least expect. The weakness can also be used to glorify God's name and therefore, do not lose heart but rather continue to perserve on till the annointed time.
Sometimes the end of this chapter in our lives is only to prepare the new chapter of another better future ahead. Therefore, let us just look toward a better future ahead and to continue to live every day of our lives to the fullest.

Celebrating Wendy's Birthday

Last saturday was spent rushing from place to place and meeting people after people. Played soccer in the morning wif my colleagues and realized that my stamina is getting from bad to worse. (IPPT approaching soon...haiz!!)
Afternoon was singing ktv at Marina Square wif meryl, weimin, faye, huicheng, wendy, chee seng, hartley, mountain, weiwen, sean plus myself. First time singing ktv wif so many people and the best part is that some of them dun even know one another. Not to forget, I got a gift from huicheng which was a tie. (so sweet of her!!)
Proceeded to Marina South for steamboat where weiwen and huicheng left us but the size of the group was further expanded by the joining of pris, weimei, web n henry. Had a very fulfilling dinner which was a wish came true for some of the guys. (Had been saying to have steamboat since last year and it took us one year b4 it came true...all thanks to wendy!!)
Realized that while the day was filled with many activities, it's impt to have the end in my mind. What do I really want to achieve at the end of the day? What really lies at the end of the road? Life alone is a training ground which people had to learn to grow and mature rather than just living from day to day. Haiz!! Always easy to say but difficult to do. Sometimes, it's so easy to complain to God to say:"Give me a break lah" and God would always replied: " Just a little while more, my child, just a little while more......".
Let me just continue to hold on for just a little while more and to make full use of the talent that God had assigned to each and every one of us. To bury the talent under the ground would be undesirable in the eyes of God. Therefore, let us continue to press on and encourage each other all the more especially as the day is approaching.
