It's been a year

Last Wednesday marked one year.. How am I doing? I'm hanging in there.. Much better than I thought I would, seeing that lots has happened for others during this one year that I never thought would in such a short period..

Will I let that affect me? No Way! It did for a couple of days initially but I got over it when I realized that it didn't really matter anymore..

I think I've grown more in this one year, I've learnt to look for different qualities in people.. Realized that my 'list' isn't necessarily God's 'list' for me..

I'm so grateful for God's grace.. I'm only able to stand and get through this one year because His grace and mercy for me are new everyday.. And this is the grace that I need to hold on to for the years to come..

African CNY Bash

What do you think of a CNY bash with all Africans? That was exactly the scene yesterday at the cyber cell and I thought it was pretty cool.. The only Chinese you could see was Yeow Cheong, and me if that's counted lol. So like 1.5 Chinese in a pool of about 30 Africans.

I've missed the international cell a lot. I didn't realise just how much till last night. It's been months since I last visited cell due to different commitments and no cell being held end of last year. Missed the people the most. They're such a loving bunch, and not to mention crazy!!

PSP, Zulu & Sarah & the other leaders in cyber did an awesome job planning for yesterday. From the onstart, there was such a CNY feel to the party, from CNY deco and games to Chinese Fried Rice and Ang Pao packet tokens.. I'm so inspired now to prep some CNY tokens for our CNY bash this Friday, and with Friday being a public holiday, I got lotsa time to do so.

Maybe I should head to Old Town to get some lanterns and streamers as well to give it the CNY feel.. Hmm something to go discuss with my leaders.

I wish..

... yesterday never ended.. Sigh! Wednesday's here too fast..

I managed to do quite a bit over the 4-day holiday.. not all that I wanted that I planned for though.. but nevertheless quite a bit..

* Played boardgames with old cellies on Friday nite.. It was fun.. Been about a year since I last played with them..

* Watched 'True Legend' with parents on Sat morning.. Hmm not a good show.. Wouldn't recc it to anyone..

* Made toffee for my girls and packed them up in pretty lil packets with pretty lil pink & red bows

* Reunion dinner at Sarah's home.. She's such a sweetheart to invite me..

* First day of CNY visiting Jaylen in Rawang.. Good food and WII.. 'shake that hips'' lol

* Spend Valentines' Day with Khan.. and 'bolly girls' haha and got 'persuaded' into a sleepover..

* Cooked chicken varuval, rasam & katrika veg for parents on Monday..

* Worked on my art project.. Sigh! Still a long way to go..

* Lunch with Sue & Alvina on Tue... Took us about half an hour though trying to find a restaurant that was open.. We finally landed in Bandar Baru Ampang..

* Spend half a day at Little India in KL with Sue buying stuff, discovering Hanifa and drinking pasumpal tea with Gulab Jamun..

* Visited Nick & Sara's home and saw their tall baby, Nathan.. he's so adorable..

So I would say it was a productive 4 days.. Right right?? hehe

** Did anyone else notice how awesomely empty the roads were this morning?

Much Welcomed Break

I'm really looking forward to this long weekend.. Borrowed a new book to read.. "To Kill a Mockingbird".. believe it or not I've never read it before...

Wanna catch up on some baking.. I'm thinking of spending Saturday baking goodies for my girls.. Last year was Soft Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies.. What's on the menu this year?

This will also be a good time to 'try' and finish my art project that I started on 2 years ago.. I'm about 60% done.. I've bought the threads.. now just got to sit my butt down and work on it.. It's gonna be a beautiful piece once I'm done though..

I was also recently assigned to 2 new projects at work.. have to pray for wisdom & creativity.. Let those juices flow.. Amen! Probably spend a day working on that..

Many have already started travelling home last night I think or rather many are on leave today.. Cos I reached office in under 20 minutes! Bliss!

So yea, today's gonna be an awesome day cos it's leading up to 4 days of break!!!

Hopefully I'll be able to clear up all my work before I leave..

When?

I've said much..

Done much..

Now what?

Tulips.. Aren't they sexy?
