flying daysss..

Time flies just like that. It's a month since I start work. One thing I learn is this. Days pass by without you even realizing it. In the morning you wake up, get ready and head off to work. When you are at workplace, you work till lunch time. After lunch, you look forward to 6pm. Endure the horrific jam and then you are home for dinner. Wash up and do a bit of housework. Exhausted, you turn on the TV to relax your mind and this is the easiest thing to do. Or maybe you grab a book to read or spend time on facebook etc. Time passes by faster when you are watching TV shows and before you know it, it's bed time. Confession time. At times, I even sleep at 830pm cause I am just too free! Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Rebecca Black's song resonates with your mood -FRIDAY, FRIDAY! Then blink Saturday and Sunday went by again. Week after week, it became a routine. Hence, I made a decision.

I am having internship now, so it's more relaxing compared to the rest. For those who wants to climb higher in the corporate ladder, probably they work harder and later, maybe even weekends. It's so easy to be caught up in this whirlpool of working life. But, in the end I am spinning no where. Yes, job achievement wise I might be doing great! However, it's easy to lose the whole essence of my purpose in life that God has bestowed upon me! (ok, sounds grand but still..)

With this, I try my best to spend my nights catching up with friends, reading books, etc. Things that bless others too! This really helps me to shift my focus from a self-centered one to God-centered. Of course, I need more consistency in this. Process of learning.

I am enjoying working life more and more now but of course there're not-so-happy moments but I want to look back and be pleased that I finished the race well, with my big Daddy =).

haha exactly! Internship is only half of the day, spend the other half with your passion; indulge in things you love to do! If not, life will only be revolving around work and sleep. No point earning a lot but life without passion. Correct correct? :) haha

What are you imagining now?

Hello, it's me Sitting in a newly organized room with a eucalyptus aroma saturating the room gives me a kind of serenity in the midst of this chaotic world. I haven't been writing for ages and I thought perhaps I could start again since writing (or blogging) does organize my thoughts. I am also surprised that I could still log in to my dusty blog and the fact that it still sort-of exists. I read a book on "The New Species" by Greg Violi and this gave me a new perspective on my identity and my struggle with the old vs new self. Did you know that our imaginations and thoughts are very powerful - making or breaking us, spurring us towards God or against God, a catalyst of our emotions and feelings? The best way to describe God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit can be this. A thought birthed in God, our Father, and it is spoken by the Word himself, Jesus, and the Spirit executes it. In creating the world, all these thoughts and imaginations of how it will turn out to...

My first in 2014

Two years have passed since my last blog entry. How fast time flies. I decided to change the blog layout just to give a gist of freshness to it. Many things have changed since 2012 - most of all, myself. I guess two years of working (or slightly more) opened up my worldview and definitely altered some perspective of life. Most of all, God has done so many things in my life! In life, nothing is constant but His faithfulness remains through it all. I am excited to see what lies ahead of me - His Glory and Kingdom. (Pardon my vague updates, I am still trying to figure out how to privatize my blog so that I could only allow personal access to this. Till then, see you next round soon, hopefully)
