New Year is here….
Talking about the New Year, some things have changed while others remain the same. To start with, I bought a new pc! The cost to purchase a new CPU alone would amount to more than the cost of purchasing a new set, so I decided on a new one. My old one was down for what seems like eternity. I was without my pc and internet access for so long that I learnt to live without it. Now I also have internet access to complement my new pc! It feels like I have a life now:)
What else is new? Let me see…Hmm..I’ve got a new job – administrative work in a law firm / insurance adjusting company. And I’m giving home tuition to my ex-students on weekday nights.
You know what, before my work started, when I had lots of free time, I was craving so much for a pc and internet access, but I did not have it. Now that I have the pc and internet, time is a major factor. There’s just so much to do, with tuition, books to read, cleaning the house etc…Just have to manage my time well.
Another thing, remember I told you about a guy who said one I’ll come after him and he’ll reject me? Well, we were not on talking terms ever since, but we are now. I thought that it wasn’t right for us to have ‘cold wars’ being fellow church members. It took humility for me to make the first move to start a conversation with him shortly before Christmas, and Praise the Lord! He responded well. We both never mentioned the past. Let bygones be bygones.J
Some things that are the same…I still get phantom numbers on my phone – smses and calls. I kept my phone on 'silence' each time the ‘no number’ call came. I decided to leave it on ‘vibrate’ while at work so that I could attempt answering the call yesterday (the call came almost every day during office hours for the whole week). But the call only came when I went to the loo and I was unable to answer it, to my greatest dismay. Today, there was no call at all. I guess the person must have got tired of calling. And as my colleague said , “maybe God doesn’t want you to answer”….”takdirlah tu”….ha ha.
Hmm….nothing else to say for now…Missing all my university friends very much! Keep in touch. Take care, ya!:)
“The year that has gone has made us strong. The path was long but we walked with a song. There were fears and tears but also reasons for cheers. Welcoming the New Year 2006 with best wishes.”
-That was one of the most meaningful New Year sms I received because it came from a person who really meant what he said, and I was truly surprised that it was not a forwarded sms but one that came from the sincerity of his heart.
