Accumulating Good Karma

Came across similar article some time back while trying to do a search for "Good Karma"online. However, when I try to do the search again, I was unsucessful :(. No matter, I still manage to find similar one that says the same thing.



"The 10 days are (in Chinese calendar dates) 1st, 8th, 14th, 15th, 18th, 23rd, 24th, 28th, 29th and 30th. In addition, for those of you who are going through a rough patch now, you can try to perform good deeds during these 10 special days. According to my friend, the effects will amplify during these 10 days and can perhaps do more to neutralize the bad karma compared to the normal days."

Even Though

Even though you have every right to be angry, you have every reason to let it go. For when you let go of your anger, you make more room for joy.
Even though your first impulse may be to retaliate, you're likely to be better off when you reconcile and forgive. After all, when you've been hurt, it makes no sense for you to prolong the hurt with your own attitude and actions.
Even though the world is often cruel and unfair, it does not have to get you down. The more fully and willingly you accept what is, the more power you have to improve upon it.
Even though many things will come along that could be frustrating and annoying, you can always choose to respond with patience and with grace. By so doing, you'll be building strength as well as focusing your energy in a more positive and productive direction.
Even though events may not go your way, you can continue to move in the direction of your own choosing. Success depends very little on being given what you want, and much more on becoming the best you can be.
Even though life has its setbacks, disappointments and tragedies, they pale in comparison to the new and positive possibilities that increase with each passing moment. Choose to fully live the immeasurable blessing that is your life, and every day will move you forward.
-- Ralph Marston

Plans for 2009!

Ok... plans for the new year!


F E N G S H U I! I am setting up my home area to have better feng shui concept. Neighbor is so irritating. You want to keep plants, that is fine with me but at least keep it alive and not dead. Bad Feng Shui you know! Then there is also another thing is the star on the wall, gives me the creep. Can you create something other then a star on the war? It looks like you worship something other then God himself. I have no disrespect for other Gods but please don't do that. I creeps me out! Also, can you also clear the rubbish like the ballons you hang on the wall after christmas? Don't you know how to keep the area clean? Sigh some neighbors area so damn selfish!


Ok .. I still have a job! Still in Jurong Island but at least it is a permanent one already. My desk is still small and cramp but I still have a salary. So what can I say? Work real hard and be blind at things some people do.



I hope to travel some where. After 2 years of no travelling and stuck in Singapore, I am S I C K of it!

No further plans up ahead

Christmas Day

This year's Christmas is a quiet one! I didn't put up the Christmas Tree in my home this year as I was afraid that my son will tear it down and there would go with all my decorations. This will also mean next year must buy new Christmas decorations. Now no need. Heeehhhe to that!

Gifts were handed out early this year without any wrapping. My girl broke the car I bought for my son for Christmas :(. So.. am thinking of buying one new one but will cost me :( :(

Stayed home for Christmas and had Marathon of Ghost Whisper show. Eat western food for dinner downstairs and for Christmas eve, my husband also cook something good. STEAK! Yum Yum... I am so full of satisfaction. Guess .. it is a season to be jolly... so I also consume quite a lot of chocolates to relax.

Today at office is peaceful!

Everybody took leave and I come to work to enjoy, P E A C E F U L N E S S! No management people here! No people I don't like here! No hypocrite people here either! Thank GOD! Lately have been busy with tons and tons of work. Finally, PHEW all done.

Company X'mas Party

Today was the company X'mas party. We had buffet which is ordered by me and gift exchange which I have to tag them. Although I never liked gift exchange due to sometimes people always get those funny toys and you may get something which you don't like. However, this year I didn't have anything to complain about. I wanted an organizer like every year and always hoping someone would give me one. Finally, when the managers throw out some organizer given by suppliers, I picked one I like and then gift exchange came another. Now I have a few organizer to keep. So how can I complain? A Christmas Wish come True is what I would say!

Not only did the Christmas Wish come True for me, it did for another colleague. My Boss gave away some night safari tickets and we turn it into a lucky draw. So what happen was this colleague was saying 'hope I get this so that I can bring someone with me' . It was a joke at that time but it came true. What are the odds of that! Santa at its job or was it an angel who was listening to our conversation?

Anyhow, we all have fun! I was quite full and didn't quite eat much except for the eclairs. My all time favorite! Got a special card from my boss with special thoughts that would forever keep for memory. Still, was surprise that I got a lucky draw. Altough wasn't the BIG bottle of red wine nor the white, I still get the packet of 'expensive' coffee powder. That was really something or enough for me. It shows that I do have some luck coming my way ;).

Count my Blessings

Although there are many in which I can't say I am Thankful for this year, I do considered as being BLESS.

First thing of all, although I lost friends/ a friend this year but I consider thankful in a way. The friend is no longer stressful to me. I suddenly felt that I have finally detach from the feeling of still longing to my ex-company. I think is becoz I am still grown attached to the old friends. It is blessing that I finally learn to move on. Knowledge gain

Second I have new colleagues to work with and understand them. Not forgetting a boss that is different from all the other bosses I have ever worked with.

Third I manage to spent the quality time with my family in doing the things they like even I though I travel to work far.

Fourth I have grown use to that I do not have to rush rush to work after I drop off my kids. Relax....and take it easy

Fifth despite all the friend lost, I still have a particular friend who always give me support in time of my very need, a shoulder to cry on, and also she does not judge me and help me to evaluate things clearly. Thanks Ms Tan.
So this are my blessings so far

The world is BLACK!

On Leave - 5 Dec 2008

Last day of leave. Brought my kids over to the Marina Barrage to play with the water there again.

Not many people there today so went up to the second floor taking the leave to watch the gallery. Interesting!

Later the evening we went to Changi Airport to see the Terminal 3 and eat Popeyes. Yum yum... long time have not eaten since our trip to America which is 8 years ago.

Took the skytrain over to Terminal 3 and was expecting more to see as it is a new airport built but was disappointed to say that "There is nothing!" All the "can see things" are in the boarding area. However, I do admit the airport is big, clean, and really huge place to walk and have fun. No place for viewing planes taking off? Not even sure as we were there, the sky was already dark.

On Leave - 4th Dec 2008

Another plan for the day to spent quality time with my children would be tenting. Why I say tenting is becoz we are not staying overnight. We started the day with a cool whether but it later became raining.

We actually planned to tent at Pasir Ris Park but when we reach there, the drizzle came in and there weren't many sheltered area for us to tent out as teenagers were using it. So we moved our plan to somewhere else like in Changi Beach.

A bit wet though but it was cool and there was sea breeze. So cooling and relaxing. My husband set up the tent in the shelter and lucky not many people today camping and we get to have the shelter to ourselves.

My kids watching DVD while in the tent as it was raining heavily outside. Lucky we have the tent set up under shelter before the rain came. Now my girl cannot say we never go camping ;). Hahhaha

My husband started the BBQ when the fire was start, the rain came in again and grew heavier so he had to go into the tent for hiding. We thought our BBQ is ruined by the rain and we have nothing to eat :( but later when the rain stopped, my husband noticed that the BBQ pit was still burning so he continue to BBQ the food and enjoyed eating it while having the cool whether surrounding us. The one thing good about tenting in at Changi Beach is that you get to hear the planes fly buy. Noisy though but we enjoy watching pass above us and so did my kids.

On Leave - 3rd Dec 2008

Plan for the day was to bring both my children to watch the Barney show @ Lot1 in Choa Chu Kang. Need to catch the 1pm show as the next would be at 5pm or was it 7pm? Can't really recall it. Anyhow, was a bit too late then.

My girl enjoyed the show but my boy only lasted for awhile. He usually likes to watch Barney from the CD but seem to be impatient with the show.

Still waiting for my written fate to be OUT

COME ON!

What can be taking so long to decide you JERK! Don't sit on it lah! Let's get over with it. I am not getting any younger. Sickening having to wait and wait and wait.

So will it be written by end of this very week? I really have no idea but to wait and wait ... Sigh... this is so agitating and people are so agitating. & that is why sometimes we are filled by these much anger due to irritating people who aren't helpful to ease other people's pain but only think about themselves and I call these people selfish. They have the " think of others before yourself" concept in mind in whatever they try to do.

ARGHHHH... and the waiting continue!
