FRIDAY!!! WHOOHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good day all. It’s finally Friday!

 

Been out for lunch with my uni mates…busy at work…

 

Just some quick updates about myself……….

 

I started work in a new company in the city……been in this company for 3 weeks now…….time flies…..have great bosses……..good colleagues………have my own office………window view, although facing the road…….so those of you who walk past Citibank building, look up and wave to me……..hahaha……….i’m facing the park…….been learning heaps of new stuff………enjoying work so far………

 

I realised that I am a workaholic……….as in I cannot stand not having anything to do in the office……….arrghhh……….whenever I finish something, I crave for more stuff to do……….not sure why………but I feel uncomfy when I have nothing to do…….maybe seems like I am not working??? Sigh………but, at night, when I lie down, I go straight to dreamland………

 

Oh ya, got my results last Wednesday too……..surprised with my results again………I thought I wont do so well, but hmmm….i scored all distinctions for my units………praise God!!!! I was feeling rather down after my exams, coz I thought I didn’t prepare myself well enough……….anyway, praise God………really…….and gotta thank Dave too……couldn’t have done it without him……….he cooks and cleans and looks after me……….hehe……he’s a loving husband………I am proud to say that I love him………..so……guys, I have finally completed my Master of Accounting!!!!! Whoohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My graduation is in September……..somehow, don’t feel quite excited about it……but I guess I’ll feel excited when it nears……..

 

My parents are coming in August with my niece and sis and bro-in-law too………looking forward to see them!!!! Cant wait to see them! YESSSS!!! Home cooked food!!!! Yum yum!!!!

 

Tonight, gonna have a social night in church………bringing some friends to church……….quite excited……..coz they are non-believers……….although it’s just for social night, but hope that they click with other friends, and will come visit the service…………

 

Past few weeks, I’ve been shopping heaps too………spending too much money on clothes……….but I guess I need them lah………(what an excuse)……..but yeah, having sales everywhere………..and plus working in the city……..and dave finishes work at 530, and I finish work at 430………so I have an hour in between to shop………dave drops me off at 745 in the morning, drives to east perth, parks at friend’s place and takes a cat to work……..home time, I’ll take a walk in town till 515 and then take a cat to his friend’s house, pick the car, and drive to pick him up……..that’s our daily routine now……..getting quite used to it……in fact, quite enjoy this daily routine………coz I do a lot of walking now………I need that………since I started studying, I put on so much weight!!!!! Need to lose some now……….hahahaha…………

 

Hmm…….what else is there to update??? Nothing much lah………..i should be going back end of the year, or chinese new year……….

 

Oh ya, a friend/junior from Convent just came to perth! So excited……..when we started talking on the phone, like orang gila!!!!! Laugh and laugh……..but yeah, gonna meet her in church tonight!!! Happy!!!!

 

Hope everyone will have a great weekend! God bless………….

He's so good!!!!!

God is good...........all the time!

Winter now...........cold.............and errrhhhh....somehow a bit humid...........not very sure............but yeah, its cold and wet........but it's all good..............

Having my exams at the moment.......my final exams for my course!!! Had a paper on Monday and another paper last night........feeling really exhausted............tired............last week was one busy and stressful week for me.............busy with exam preparations and at the same time, busy going for interviews.........poor dave, he suffered with me..............drove me to interviews and waited for me in the car............I quit my last job about 2 weeks ago...........to search for a job that I really want to be in and also to focus on my studies.........glad I did that.........otherwise, I would be so so so so so burnt out..........

Finally found the right job for myself..............will be starting on the 25th June..........quite happy...........I think my boss is good to work for............and I think it will be a good growth for me in this position.........been praying hard for the right job to come my way........before I graduate.....and this came my way..........thank God for it............so I have a week rest next week after my final exam on Monday...........whoohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look forward to the long awaited rest!!!! Been so stressed out with exams and all...........but it's all worth it.............

Last few nights, didnt sleep the whole night through.....and again Dave suffered the brunt of me tossing and turning and kicking.............he too became a zombie..........hahaha......but yeah, been having sleepless nights lately, not sure why........insomnia.............sigh...........

Anyway, for you guys who have been asking me what is going on with my life..........so far thats about it..............

Another thing to update is we went to visit an indonesian man who got burnt severely.......and he is disfigured...........very poor thing..........and the thing is he cant tell his family that he is burnt and etc........so he told his family he cant go back and he wants to live here.........and his family thnks that he doesnt want them anymore back home in the village coz he is doing well........that is breaking his heart..........feel very very bad for him........anyway, will embrace him into our lives and try to be his family here............

Gotta go soon..........will update more next week hopefully..............

Take care all..........and have a great day and week ahead!!!

God bless!

question.....

What is your purpose of life on earth? What happens after you have gained everything you ever wanted in life? What next?

Should be having this discussion very soon..........so would like to get some insights into different people's purposes of life...............
