What's next?

Been really tensed n exhausted with what happened tday. I am not the kinda person who takes things lightly. And that is the problem with me. I 'own' the problem when others just see them as nothing happened.

Life's like that..

Life is like that. A few occassions happened..and I realized that 'manusia mudah lupa'..terlalu mudah lupa dgn nikmat yg dilalui, bantuan yg diterima dan kesusahan yg dirasa apabila diri telah berada di atas. Well...u sow what u reap?..I x know whether that applies to me.

Rough Road Ahead..

what is in store for me in 2009? very hard to tell..one thing for sure is I have to sit for my MIA QE exam in march 09'. The good news is ..it is the only subject left for me. But the bad news is I haven't started my revision yet.

Next year is a not-so-easy year for us. I hv to make a lot of adjustments in terms of our daily family routine. Even now the kids are quite well
informed of the adjustments n are very much prepared for the unexpected. InsyaAllah..everything is under good control n well taken care of.

The Past One Week....

18th Dec 08:
Morning:
Attended a BOD meeting. Phew..meeting lasted for 3 hours. I was tensed..as usual. Really..i hate the feeling..it's like going through a tough exam in a big hall..so tensed..but THANKGOD.. nothing much was queried on my parts. Actually the main agenda for the BOD meeting this time was to approve the BUDGET 09..and the budget09 was approved without any objections or ammendments. That was a BIG relief to me..and the team as well. It was a team effort..definitely not me alone..never..

At Nite:


For the past one week, tonite was the first nite that i could sleep well..that's how stressful i was...well..that's the responsibilities that i hv to shoulder.

19th December 08 (Friday):

TGIF!!!!!(THANK GOD ITS FRIDAY)

WOW..it's friday nite and it's a FAMILY NITE OUT..This has been the routine for me and my hubby to take our kids out on friday nites..Well..my kids normally look forward to fridays. I thought of taking Kak Lang along, but didnt know that Alang was already on the bus to KL. Alang, Pakteh did not inform me that Alang planned to go to KL. Anyway, probably next time lah ye..

20th December 08:

morning:

Cleaner came as early as 8.00 am. Looks like I have to engage Lim for my permanent cleaner since we have decided to discontinue my indon maid who had gone back for almost 2 months..she was sick and has not fully recovered..and we do not want to take any more uncalculated risks..enough is enough.

My cleaner Lim has been serving me for almost 9 years already and i had to discontinue her service 4 months ago because we wanted to hire the indon maid. Now that it didnt work with the indon maid, I had to beg Lim to come back and luckily she agreed. Lim can be trusted and i normally leave the house while she and her kids are doing their chores.

I just can't handle the whole house myself..even Lim does it with two of her teenage kids..too much to do..5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms..not to mention other things..

Faces of my heart..

These are the faces of my heart..and soul..

Tagg???? Layan je lah..

Great management is about character..not technique..

..quoted from Thomas Teal.. Harvard Business REview..
Well..character is what u really are..thus..need to be built up..established..and properly handled.

CHARACTER..everybody has one. Be it good or bad..all depends on how one was brought up..Of course we tend to inherit some of our parents' characters or personalities, but i still believe that characters and personalities can be re-shaped as we get older or matured.

Unfortunately, some never bother to 're-visit' or 'review' their own characters - they resist to change. As a result, we would bump into people who are selfish..self centered..and inconsiderate..These pple never take stock of what is happening around them..very insensitive to others..Yes...there are many of these pple around..yet ...they survive...

'wild thoughts....huh?

It's been quite awhile since the last time i entered a posting to my blog..the thought that more of my close friends have access to my blog 'excite' me a bit..at least i get to share some of my 'thoughts'' that i missed to let out over our cup of tea..Ha..ha.. sometimes it was due to time constraint but most of the time it was because somebody just pulled a chair and joined us..so, some 'thoughts' or 'wild thoughts' just ended there.
