Welcome 2009?

As I was standing there witnessing the fireworks being released, the beauty of it has brought me back to the year 2000 where about 5 of us were standing on top of a building situated on a hill witnessing the fireworks just at our eye level. I was sick after that, but the moment... where hand shakes, hugs and so on ... just won't leave me until now. My heart, my soul, my mind are still remain there and then I suppose... perhaps, I am still in denial of the fact that I have left those people behind me, I have left the time, I have also left the warmness and so on ... After so many years, ... somehow, tonight I felt a bit lonely... guess because I missed certain people, certain place and certain moment...

Yah... guess I am still in denial .... even after so long... !

-welcome 2009-

Last day of 2008!

It's the last day of 2008 and I was thinking this morning if today is going to be GOOD! Well, I came into office and realise I have many loose papers on my table and I went through one by one of it and realise, besides loose papers, no one actually make payment to me so far. Furthermore, I saw a copy of the Order and Judgment put on my table. It's the case I lose in November and I have to call my client to ask them to pay the other party. It's something I do not want to face really... well, I called my client and almost immediately, he came with cheque book and he issued cheques and we chatting for a while and I must say, he is such an an encouragment somehow and instead of scolding me, he made the payment and he also shared a bit with me about life, about some nasty people in the world and how we should deal with it and so on. And he left by wishing me have a happy new year! I ended today by sharing a bit of gospel with a client. Can you believe that? hahaha.... Well... boss came in around 2pm and told me office is closing at 3pm today. How nice.

Well, ... Happy new year everyone!!!!

Life!

After a week of holiday, I must say, I am 70% charged for the months ahead even though, I am looking forward to go home for Chinese New Year next month. Well, I had a rather 'usual' Christmas AGAIN this year. It just gone past...with no suprises and/or suprising joy. haha... I asked and told myself again this year that, Christmas is all about the birth of Christ and nothing else. Hence, my joy shall be that and that alone. Well, ... I guess I have gone through too many 'wonderful' and 'suprising' Christmas until I found it rather "usual" for the past 8 years. Ghoosh... why is that so? Anyway... I consider myself had a good Christmas this year though, at least, I had Turkey and friends around. hehe... so, yes... theGodlyLawyer, stop complaining!!!

Well, I went back to office on 26th to collect a file for court hearing on 30th and so, I was also looking through some other files to see if anything need my urgent attention. Yes, yes, yes... this lawyer whom I asked him to service a document for me did his job last minute INCORRECTLY... and the next hearing date is on 7th January. I quickly called him and tried to sort things out. Now, if he has failed to perform accordingly again, goodness, I am going to sue him for sure. So, yes, what a good news after a good Christmas!

Life continues... with another news received at about 11:30pm on 26.12.2008, that a close friend, someone whom I knew since she was a baby, played with her throughout her childhood, lead her in Girls' Brigade, etc... passed away at 1:30am on 27.12.2008 at Sydney, Australia time.

Life goes on... I believe... and when I thought of the difficult future of mine ... and I can only think of the phrase "life goes on!" which was always spoken to me by a dear sister in Christ from Zimbabwe, Marlene Chitonga, with a pat on my shoulder. Yes... suddenly, I do miss her...

Life goes on huh? ... ya...
