White Christmas

The time of the year is here again. It's one of the memorable time this year. So many things have happened in this month. I'm so blessed by God till it's overflowing. I'm just amazed... i guess none of us can grasp the amount of love He has for each one of us. It's so bounderless, so powerful... it's a security that i have never felt before.

Alot of which i don't deserve, but of which he freely give. As insignificant as dirt, he picked me up, and treasured me like a precious jewel. Yup, it's a time to rejoice for the birth of the true saviour... the one who rescued me from the gnashings of hell.

This christmas is truly a time to be joyful and a time to worship the one true King.

The breathe of Life

*yawnz* i woke up this morning, tucked myself comfortably in my bed and wondered what i should do today. Than i thought abt what i did during the week. Well work this week has been FANTASTIC. Yep.. it has been a great week at work. I've got quite a number of potential customers for my colleagues to work on. Think my supervisor was pleased with the effort that i am putting in to help them in their sales.

Just yesterday, my supervisor went to Jurong to try close a sale. However i think he made a wasted trip. Even then, he sacrificed moeny to buy cigarette to buy dian xin for everybody! Awww... so sweet right? He even had to queue to get it. I'm sooOOOoo fortunate he's my supervisor...

He takes really gd care of me too, teaching me the ropes and all. I think my english is improving by the day. We're always correcting somebody's english in the office. Feels like a fun game to me.

Great food, Good work, Fantastic boss... hmmm... work isn't that bad i guess.

Everything seems pretty fine for now. Only God can work wonders, only he can turn things ard for me.

I've dreaded doing sales all my life. Even the tot of it irks me. So for me to have come this far and even find joy in what i am doing, it has to be God working in me. Who knows what is in store for me in future? Only He knows it all.. ....

No longer hiding behind my shadows

No longer hiding behind my shadows
My thoughts are no longer shallow
I open up my wings
happily flying in the wind
stronger and happier than before... ...

Sadness and sorrows are all in the past
I look forward and stay steadfast
to what i believe in and to whom i trust
looking forward and running fast
stronger and happier than before... ... (i composed it myself... it's bout me)

Update... hmm.. attachment was not as scary as what i imagined to be. So there was really nothing to fear. Actually i wished the company had higher expectations of what i can really do. I feel so under utilised. There's little to do in the office and if u're wondering what i do frm Mon-Fri is just answering calls. Yep... how boring... .... zzzZZZzzz

So anyway, i decided to do more than what the boss expected of me and i think their kinda shock with how quick i'm progressing. Yep... like the cold-calling task... it was SOOooOOoo dreadful that just dialing the numbers made every finger weigh a ton. Heehee... with determination and forcefulness i completed the task and to their satisfaction! Yippie. Not sure what i'm gonna do the next week but i've got afew task i planned for myself. Even though the company is paying me little, i'm not gonna use that as an excuse for not pushing myself to the max. Love ya all. Keep in touch!

Some things are irreplaceable... just like you and me

Sorry for the long wait... well the new revamped blog page is finally up. Finally got the tagboard working.. phew* Well the exams are over but i'm not exactly elated relieved or overjoyed. Within afew days and it's back to work... more work. Attachment begins this coming Monday. Don't really know what to expect. I only know that i have to report at 9am. My Laison Officer knows nuts.. the horror. So tomorrow (Sunday) i'll be checking the location out just before i start work on Monday.

Thanks for all the prayers and all. I've worked hard for the exams... but didn't think i did fantastically well for any of the papers. Hmm... time really flies. I was clearing my room today and organising all my notes. Never did i realised how much i have studied during the past 3 years. It's really a mountain and as i flipped though all of it, i am proud to say that i found each work done to the best of my ability. No regrets at all!

Time really flies. I found myself sitting in my room, reflecting and realising the pple who have past me by. Some things are just irreplaceable. Some memories unerasable. I was so lost for words. Quickly picking myself up before i slide into depression, i went to bz myself again.

I found my journal. I realised how bz i have become that i've forgotten the most impt person in my life. God. Well, i havent been doing my quiet time, but i know his presence has always been around me everywhere i go.

For those taking exams or planning on a holiday trip, i'll be praying for you too~~
Cheerio!

Linda and The ReaL WorLd

Hmm.. i don't know to be happy or sad. Well, i'll put things into perspective and let you, my friends decide if it's good or bad.

Today, i just received news on my ITP (industrial Attachment). I will be working in this telecommunications and network company. It was my LAST choice and i was like 100% sure that i would be getting my first few choice. But as you all know, life is full of "surprises".

Apparently, this is a reputable company and they have expanded to Australia. The location of this company where i will be working is really near my home. So i can get up late, get home early... haha basically more time for myself rather then spending the time stoning in the bus.

However, the job scope requires me to do sales. Sales of Internet Service Providers (ISP). Also, i will have to be able to set up a network using Broadband solution. I am TOTALLY CLUELESS on what this is all about. Argh... i have NO IDEA what am i going to do! I know i can cope with the sales with alittle reading and understanding here and there. But the technical part is gonna be a huge hurdle for me. I'm gonna need a whole lot of encouragement and support. Not forgetting hours of reading up to prepare myself for the worst senario.

Also, there won't be any other ITP students working with me. So i will be having my lunch all alone. That totally suxs. Lonely hours with no one to talk to and laugh with? Oh man... i mean i cannot live a day without a companion to chit chat and eat with me!! *sobs*

So i am gonna pray for a good boss and nice colleagues who will ask me out for lunch. Pray that i more alert then my usual blur blur self. I also will be needing lots of wisdom and be able to grasp things real fast. If i do well for my ITP then it'll be easy for me to work for another company in a similar industry like Singtel, Starhub or even Samsung.

Things could work out for the best or for the worst. Feel free to drop me a line or give me some sound advice... signing off! Linda

What a BlundeR... *sob*sob*

Something not so glamourous happened last week. I have been vigourously putting all my heart and soul into the project and naturally i would have expected good marks for the effort i had put in. However... this was not so. My group was awarded marks much lower than i had ever expected... i felt so sore about it. After that my classmates of 12 and myself set off to Chinatown to celebrate the mooncake festival. Although i was in no mood to enjoy the occasion, i decided that it would be much better compared to sulking alone at home.

I stood at the MRT, bitter and disappointed. I blamed no one but the teacher, whom i felt didn't know how to appreciate a good piece of work. I grumbled to my friends about how unjustifiable it was for the teacher to give such miserable marks and yet claim that he is lenient and all. I was upset and said things like "He thinks he's such a good teacher but he's not! Ask him to go back to ITE and teach lah!... etc." This went on until we alighted at one of the stops to switch to the another lane.

I scampered my way out of the MRT when i heard my friend calling me from behind. I turned and to my horror i saw my teacher standing closely behind me!!!!! I was stunned and shocked. I froze in absolute fear.. did he hear what i said? Where did he appear from? I gave my friend a blank look. Oh dear... boy am i in BIG trouble. But after awhile, i felt sort of justified about what i said. After all, i still think i don't deserve that pathetic marks.

The next lesson i had with him was sort of awkward. I could tell that he wasn't very happy and i felt really uneasy. When our eyes met, his eyes would dart away... as though i was like a thorn. I prayed about it and i admit that whatever i said that day was harsh and it was out of disappointment. I realised where i had gone wrong and perhaps i do deserve the marks given. It's all a learning experience. I should take it in a positive light and pick up where i left off.

After a week has passed, he finally spoke to me in a pleasent manner (today!!). I asked him a few questions about some information i was unclear on and he explained patiently and clearly. Yup... that was a real blunder but i'm glad that it's over. Hopefully he doesn't put it to heart about all i said that day...
