Home sweet home + God's goodness

Thank God peanut is safely back in Lion City :) woots!

Wanna share a testimony! my boss approved my MC on 26 Dec which is not from our Company panel of doctors! Both my secretary and HR say my department dun allow cos my boss don't approve of it, they tell me I will have to take unpaid leave.

I prepared myself for the worst scenario (i.e. i have to take unpaid leave) before i went into her room. Explained the situation to her cos the panel doctor was not opened when I went that day which is a Sat so they only opened to 1pm and thank God she's in a good mood and say "not a problem. 没问题。" and signed on the MC to approve it. Thank God!

God is good :)

When I took the flight from KL to SG, while the plane was taking off, I realise how I take things for granted so easily. Like safety of the flight. Last time, I always prayed before the plane take off. After travelling for umpteen times, I would forget to pray for journey mercy and take it for granted that I'll be safe. I would think to myself "Surely I wun be so suay." but like the earthquake that took the people of Haiti by surprise and dismay, many things can happen. I must count my blessings.

I'm gg to CG later! woots can meet my brothers and sisters after so long! :)

TGIF

Today is the last day of the FM. She reviewed the JVs that I did and pointed out those with errors and explained to me why it is wrong. :) After the dramatic 2 days, I'm glad I got to learn new things. If she din treat me the harsh way, I might not have gained as much. I really appreciate her trying to teach me and wanting me to understand the concept and why I pass those journals and how to pass those journals.

Today we went to Glenmarie for Nasi Kandar during lunch. I love it!! It's really really really very nice. duno how to go. may go again next week with Dewi they all. maybe get the directions from them so that any KL ppl reading this blog can go try it for themselves! According to the Sales Manager, its featured as the no. 1 Nasi Kandar duno in KL or whole of M'sia. hahaha. Next week I will bring camera when we go there. Last week also tried a Nasi Kandar but this one nicer. there's another stall called Baiduri which sells very nice fried chicken. hahaha really nice food can be found in Malaysia! Ppl are oso warm and some of them are very funny ppl. makes working here enjoyable even though sometimes i cannot understand their language. haha. when I have chance I take photo of the lovely and humorous ppl and upload here :)

Depend on God, not on myself

Woke up with fear and reluctance to go to work. Afraid of the harsh tone that I may face. Afraid that I cannot cope with the expectation and work. Was about to leave my room when I remember Mom and Dad kept telling me to pray before I leave the hotel. I put down my stuff and came before God asking for his strength to go through this, for wisdom to understand my work, for forgiveness for relying on my own strength and not walking close to Him, for forgiving the FM for hurting my with her words and that her attitude towards me will soften.

Praise God that there was really a change in her attitude towards me! cos one colleague treated many of us for lunch cos his birthday and also for her farewell. Through the lunch, we started to converse like last week, when she talked to me like a friend. so happy. the lunch was good and the chicken tasted great :D even after lunch when back to office, she was a bit stern but much better than yday :)

I also began to understand my work better and enjoy it :) even though have to OT till ard 9. i tink its worth it :) Really thank God for answering my prayers!

At night, told Mom and Dad not to worry about me and shared with Mom the answered prayer. God is really good to me :)

Worse day of 2010 so far

Today is is my worse day since 2010 started. I cried many times today at different times of the day. cos i really cannot take the harsh tone and hosility of the person and the stress of closign the accounts by my own without her help. I felt helpless cos i really duno a lot regarding accounting. I felt bad that I kept forgetting things. I felt bad that I disappoint her. I felt useless. I felt worse when i cannot control my tears. I cried in front of 2 guys while trying to stuff my lunch into my mouth. When I went to parts department to look for Dewi to return her the lunch money my eyes were red. so obvious that i cried. I felt upset.

At nite, called home to pour my woes to my Mom. hahaha. Really thank God that I have such wonderful parents who cares about me and loves me even though I'm a big girl now. I was like a baby, crying and pouring out my woes through the phone, blow my nose and continue to cry. I'm really glad she listened patiently and comforted me asking me to pray and ask God for stength and not to take her words to heart. My Dad also encouraged me in a surprising way! He told me to pray the Lord's prayer. He told me I had given him a birthday card with the Lord's prayer (in Chinese) on it and he has memorised it as he has been repeating it when he goes to work! hahaha. (I cant even remember I wrote him a birthday card) and he read every line to me and tried to explained to me what it means and try to encouraged me with the prayer. I'm really amazed by my Dad and really grateful. I'm even more amazed by how God has worked in my Dad's heart. My Mom and Dad asked me to pray before I go to work every day and ask for God to help me and strength me.

After the conversation, I felt really comforted and assured by God. Even though I'm going through tough times, my heart is delighted with my Dad's response and I really pray that his heart will continue to soften towards God and one day accept Him into his life.

KL ger

I'm in KL for 1 week now... I'm already missing home like crazy. miss my frenz, my family, my familiar Singapore. although the people are warm and friendly here, i still cant help but miss home. Last week was enjoyable...relax...very relax. The person handing over to me was nice to me and taught me patiently. But today she became fierce. she feels I'm not up to it. The way i keep forgeting things. I'm so stressed whenever she asks me a question. its always sometin i forget. my assignment is not as easy as it looks after all. I lose confidence in myself whenever i face situations like that. I feel that I'm not good enough. slow in learning. keep forgeting and making mistakes which i shdn't make. Is she being hard on me or is it I'm too slow?
