I LOVE MY FAMILY

The story begins..

One day (this happened last week), I was at work and got a text message.

Lil' Sis: Von, we bought a new TV!!!!!!

Me: *no reply* (because I was busy working)

** Background: The reason why it's an exciting event that we get a new TV is because we have been using the old CRT TV (21 inches) for many many years now and it is slowly dying.

And it died that day!

After work, my dad came to pick me up with his bike. It was raining so I was wearing one of my dads rain coat that was extremely big for me (I get protected from the rain more..haha). When I reached home, and got down from the bike, my mum was already waiting at the gate jumping up and down!

Mummy: *while jumping up and down* Von, we got new TV!!!

I was excited to see this new TV that I didn't even take off the raincoat. I stepped into the house and started laughing and laughing till my tears rolled down. Everyone was laughing so hard!

This picture explains it all :

Yup, the new Tv is 14inches! hahahahaha!!!! I love my family for their sense of humor! They're awesome!!!!

The next day, dad bought a new TV! and it's not a CRT neither is it 14 inches. hahahaha!

Love,

Stress-free??

Hello!!

Wow..it has been 2 weeks since I disappeared from my blog! I have been having lots of off days for the past 2 weeks. 5 days in 2 weeks (that's a lot looking that I am only entitled to 1 day off a week)Well, the reason being, we (managers, supervisors) are told to clear our annual leave by this month due to several reasons. Plus, work has been good so far after all the changes that has been made. Praise the Lord!!!! :D

During my off day, I decided to spend my time with my lil' sis all the way in her uni. It was fun as I got to experience what my lil' sis does on a daily basis (she's a busy bee), spend time with her and her friends. Plus, I managed to plan a surprise birthday with the help of her friends (I am so happy to know that she has a bunch of awesome friends who were very warm and welcoming to me). She was pleasantly surprised and was bashed later on with eggs, flour and sugar to add to the sweetness. haha! I got bashed too!

The result:

TADA!! I LOVE YOU!!

Hence, the title of my post 'Stress-free??' My answer to that, YUP!! Everything is slowly falling into place :)

Love,

Rest

REST.

This word has been a word I wait for every week. Working 9 days straight with no rest really sucked all my energy away. Finally had 2 days off (yesterday and today). What a relieve. What a joy.

My status on Facebook :

' It's amazing how when one get's some needed rest, you start dancing in the car by yourself! Who cares if you look like a crazy person from outside the window!'

On my way home from servicing my car, it was raining cats and dogs. I switched on my radio to 95.8 Fly.FM and Party Rock Anthem ft. Lauren Bennett, GoonRock was playing! ( I just Youtube-ed to find out who sang this song. I don't normally know who sing's what song..haha). This song has been playing on the radio for quite some time now. But today, it got to me. I started dancing in the car! I didn't care if anyone was looking what I was doing. I guess this two days of rest really took my stress away.I felt so happy and light. I feel good!

Weeeee..listening to it now and dancing at home!

Love,

Change

Change happens all the time, whether you like it or not. It is how you embrace the change and move on from there. Today or more like yesterday, I got news from work that there is some changes in the management. It was shocking as I did not expect anything like that to happen anytime soon. I do not know how it is going to turn out, hopefully for the best of everyone.

Like I always like to say,

Everything happens for a reason. Do you believe that? Well, I do. :)

God's in control, so what's there to worry.

I am not saying that i do not worry at all. If you know me, I'm the type of person who actually worries a lot because I over think about things most of the time. However, I am TRYING not to and just trust God. He knows best.

So many things have change over the years. I feel like I am changing too (physically, mentally, spiritually). Oh well, embrace it!

1/8/2011

Today was a good day at work. Praise the Lord for that! It's fasting month for the Muslims hence the crowd was lesser today. This is the first time on a Monday morning I'm experiencing this. I guess this whole month is going to be like this :). After 2 months of constant busyness, running up and down, doing extra hours, etc, I can finally work without feeling like I have no time for anything else.

Why is it when I want to do something else after work, I have to stay back and do extra hours. But when I have nothing on my mind to do, I get the time. Sometimes, it can be disappointing and frustrating but I am still grateful that I get to relax for once. Thank you God for giving me rest.

I think something is wrong with my phone.. hmmmmm....

Love,

Challenging

This whole week has been realllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy challenging for me. I've been stretched more than I knew I could be. Come to think of it, this year has been challenging and is presently challenging as well. Now the word 'challenging' is starting to sound weird after saying it many times,haha!

I would love to write down all that has happened this week, but even doing so will make me exhausted. Feels like I can write a whole book just based on this week. The book can be titled ' The week' or '1 week' or whatever lah.. haha.. I'm starting to crap now.

Above all, I thank God that He is always watching over me. <3

I thank God I have a great top management to work with. They are ever so helpful and caring.

I thank God I have partners at work that are considerate.

I thank God for my supporting family.

I thank God for love.

I thank God for everything.. :)

Love,
