for you, a thousand times over.
i read this book "the kite runner" a few months ago and finally get to watch the movie version today. im glad that the movie turned out to be good although reading the book itself is way better. haha. its pretty much similar to the book although some really nice part are missing. but glad that they didnt do any major changes to it.
a nice book that talk about the extraordinary friendship between the two boys amir and hassan. amir the master and hassan the servant.. amir who is always on the receiving end and hassan who is always giving and willing to go the extra mile for his friend without asking anything in return. hassan who is always there to protect amir. but one betrayal from amir broke up the friendship between them. how fragile can it be? somehow after reading this book, it taught me to appreciate all my friendships and everything i had.
i admire hassan's spirit. the way he treasure his friendship with amir. not everyone is capable of doing that. (:

the process....
just had my first session with the boys from RINPCC. it's the sec 2s now. aww. somehow i miss the sec 3s.. it was the first session with them and frankly speaking i had a great time with them. i was quite apprehensive at first.. (because was worried that they are not able to get into the "mood".. its really quite sucky when you got those really "stern" volunteers.. like they dont laugh they dont talk.. they just stare at you.. get what i mean? haha) but anyway.. im glad that it turned out ok i suppose?
im amazed with some of the young volunteers' ability.. like they are really flexible with changes. was suppose to play some games on the first session. but they were late and after my briefing it was already dinner time. so arranged for them to help out in the canteen instead. it was the first session and some of them readily agreed to it when i asked them to help to feed the residents. although they were some uncertainty initially, i'm glad that some of them manage to overcome the barrier. and they even offered their services. well done boys. am glad that somehow slowly... they took the first step in befriending the residents. although some are still afraid but at least THEY TRIED that's really important. (:
and manfred shared.. it doesn't matter if the outcome is not what you planned for.. most importantly you enjoyed THE PROCESS.
and yes I AGREEE!! often we are too caught up with our desired outcome that we tend to neglect the process. it is equally important for us to enjoy the process of achieving the outcome.. it doesn't matter even if you failed to achieve your outcome, because what matter is YOU ENJOYED AND EXPERIENCED THE PROCESS...
(:
and im looking forward to more sessions with them...

that's me.
often i lack the courage to fight for things that i want and ended up with nothing at all.
yearning for it but not planning to do anything about it.
i guess like everyone, i'm afraid of facing the consequences, rejection and failure.
damn loser. i know.

my boss love to sabo me
yeah.. we were in the middle of a meeting at care corner FSC then suddenly
"you can ask my colleague over here to share more with you!"
my first reaction.. "wtf?" totally not prepared to give a speech and no idea what they are talking about. (okay fine i admit i was not paying attention!) so i end up talking nonsenses... and i can feel myself trembling leh! loser :(
another example.. sometimes when we need to give briefing or plan any event... my boss will "ask her (point to me) she is good in giving presentation and she is always giving briefing!) another arrow... "ask her (point to me again) she is very creative. so she can plan the event this year." double wtf.
was super happy when my boss appointed my SW to plan for this year National Day because he love to assign me with task like this. i'm thinking wah finally i dont have to go through the trouble of planning for an event and coming up with IDEAS on what to do.. finally can relax... BUT!! being the very forgetful man, he asked me into his room this morning to remind ME ABOUT PLANNING FOR THIS YEAR EVENT!! earlier at another meeting with another guy again he said "she is our in charge for this year program." he totally forgotten about SW involvement in this!! :(
oh well.. thank you for the arrow boss. (:
