was reading mandy gorgeous pandy dandy moo soh (she isn't irish, she's just precious!) and saw her doing up her good and bad of 2006.
i'll do up one
which fyi is different from resolutions!
+ the POSITIVES!
- having the extraordinary strength to pull through specs and having the commitment for such a long term project. it's such an eye opener even though i've been doing the producer role. everyday is indeed a learning journey.
- i finally got my first AD! in effective people management. yes, i've been whining to get an A, not alone an AD, so this is definitely thanking God for making the impossible possible!
- i won't say much about religion. much things are better left unsaid lest things might be misinterpreted and dispersed onto the grapevines.
- friends. in a sense, the people [outside of church] who have stuck with me through thick and thin, by that i mean kok hui fen denise aka KOK, cynique josh ho yong min, aka YM. these pals have been with me for like eons, and by eons, i mean past the year count, showing much loyalty and concern (even though one is attached hurhurhurhuhruhruhurhur) and i really thank God so much for putting you two in my life, coz you guys have persevered and seen me through my different emotional lapse and hurdles.
-church members, namely e374! it's been an exciting year, i don't know about tomorrow but i'll just cherish today. such a channel of blessing in my spiritual health is ivy who has never failed to speak the correct word in the correct season in my life. she really blows my mind on how much God can do through such a willing and obedient leader (with a heart of a servant). Joshua is also such a man who is able to balance his commitments (both church and secular). and he gives me little surprises that always pulls me through the day with a happy face. e374 is such a warm group, though we may not go out as often as other cgs, we're close when we meet up.
-Work. Thank GOD that i've been given Award Music School as a chance to start teaching, it has increased my financial input and hence given me a chance to be more generous with my chicas and friends.
-Work part II. InstantKarma has really been a turning point in my life, where i'm challenged to do intense marketing and sales of the products. Aside from being educated in independent sales (i.e one person in a shop), i've made a bunch of very happy people in the shop, and our inter-relationships have gone deeper with outings outside of work, such at Attica & St James, so heres cheers to my bosses C&J, Carine, Michelle, Ashila and of course, my darlingest mambo-is-to-the-left-to-the-left MANDY "GORGEOUS" SOH. :)
-Work part III. MOX. yes, another educational breakthrough in the area of nightlife. working under B has been very.. informative, i get to learn the different beers, wines and mixers that MOX sells, i guess again, you learn something new everyday. and i began to see that straight people aren't that narrow minded (contrary to previous encounters).
-Family. a Mother who is so patient kind and understanding. cousins who are always ready to go out with me. uncles and aunties who are ever so generous.
-Life. just basically being able to wake up everyday with oxygen in my lungs. is already a positive side of 2006. thank you God.
now, we move onto the less desirable..
- the NEGATIVES -.-
-not having a stable mind. like hello, i'm a walking timebomb at times, twice i snapped back at a person of authority.. thoughts of leaving and going down another road. and i'm still trapped at this vice.
-impatience. i struggle with this alot especially in the spiritual walk. period. enuff said.
-emo-ness. i cry alot to sleep at times. just thinking and thinking. refer to point 1.
-plastics. and i don't mean the bags from markets. just people in general. the rainbow circle in singapore is rather plastic, and i tend to sow into the wrong people's lifes. and i don't reap the benefits. aside from the rainbow world, school is tough, the people you work with, could be genuinely interested in making friends with you and doing a good job, some are just for the latter.
-tardiness / non-punctual. i seem to be late frequently for outings... especially in town.
-procrastination. nuff said too. i made a resolution mid year to keep my desk neat at all times, and now it's a 2nd clothes rack.
*
shan't name all my vices here, if not, i'll give a solution.. and that'll be a RESOLUTION.
so leave it for anothertime.
happy thanksgiving to e374, e333, w396, s35, n329, e328, e412, n353! (did i miss anyone out?) ã :x all the boys stomp your feet like this x: 1:42 AM ã
