how time flies...

20th of February, 2013.

yep, today's the 20th of February, 2013. how time flies. just about 13 days or so ago i was preparing to return home to JB for Chinese New Year, and now i am sadly counting down the last few days here till i return back to KL to complete the last month of diploma. then, i will be heading to Penang to begin my 6 months of job training. in between and the end of the job training i will be taking the 'theory' and 'practical' exams set by City & Guilds of London. then, a few months later, i will be beginning my working life. WORKING LIFE! wah lau...can't believe it's this quick! talk about pressure.... *sigh*

i will surely be back in JB, that's for sure. i will probably return around March to keep some of my unimportant stuff here. i will only take the necessities to Penang. on one hand, i am excited about the prospect of working in Penang, and on the other hand i am nervous about my future. just thinking of job training, the C&G exams, etc etc... i don't want to seem negative, but i really am afraid of all these things! *sigh*





well anyways, CNY this year was a bit strange, because unlike other years very few people came to my house to 'bai nian'. funny, that... got loads of angpows, so there's something to be thankful for! haha!



looks like it's bye for now. ciaozzzzzzz

it's February!

WOW! it's February already! how fast! heehee... can't wait for CNY. that will mean i can finally go home to JB for the first time in two months. yes, TWO months. longest i've stayed in Subang without going back... SO looking forward to going back to see my family and my two darling puppies! yippee! =]

anyway, i got an email from my aunt, and it contained an inspirational passage written by Lee Wei Ling (Lee Kuan Yew's daughter). here's the excerpt that stood out among the others:
    
"When the end approaches and we look back on our lives, will we regret the latest mobile phone or luxury car that we did not acquire? Or would we prefer to die at peace with ourselves, knowing that we have lived lives filled with love, friendship and goodwill, that we have helped some of our fellow voyagers along the way and that we have tried our best to leave this world a slightly better place than how we found it?"

- Lee Wei Ling


consider...think about it...
