My happy tuesday. :-)

Again, I got what I prayed for.. and I believe that it was worth the wait.

Today, PriceWaterhouseCoopers called to offer me a job as an exec under the HR dept (something that I have been vying for), which commences tomorrow 1st July 2009. I was and still am elated. Thank you, God.. for giving me the patience to wait for a better job offer to come by and for letting me trust in You.

And this was about 30minutes before going out to watch Transformers 2 with Ching and Anju. So just imagine how 'high' i was during and after the movie. Teehehe!

Autobots, roll out!! -shing shing shing zwing- :p

Results.

I got what I wanted, what I aimed for, what I worked for...

BA (Hons) International Business Managment, 2nd class upper. :-)

Never have I mentioned this in any of my blog posts... but I want to thank my Lord Jesus for providing me with friends, a supportive family, a conducive environment, and spiritual guidance (though I have strayed now and then) to help me achieve my breakthrough.

Dinner at William's (22/12/08)

A very very belated food post. Sigh.. my apologies.

So we went to William's, a mamak place that wasn't in a building but under a stretch of shacks at ss24 (or was it ss23...crap). Do not be deceived by its shabby appearance. The food is actually good with sizable portions that make your eyebrows shoot up at least. They serve anything from Western to chinese to downright mamak..hence, its popularity.

William's does not have a proper menu with all their signature dishes, hence you need to either order based on recommendations from the workers or friends or from observation (i.e: you be thick-skinned and stare at what those from other tables are eating)

Here are pics of what we ordered when we went to Williams during my 22nd bday.

Ice blended Ribena with lychee on your left & ice blended mango with lychee on your right.

Spaghetti meatball.

And.. when we go up close and personal with each meatball, we get... Cheeesseeeee...

Seafood platter (I'm sorry I can't name whatever that was in the platter as I cant remember)

Macaroni and Cheese!!

Ice blended Advocado and Kiwi (OMG, this is sooo good but calorie inducing!!)

I'll post more pics on what we ordered during another random night out at William's soon. :)

This is how I feel now, Reality.

Reality has a way with its fists. It strikes so hard and all of us know it. It can vary from a gradual sting to a 5 second unbearable heart wrenching pain.

Me, i realized how that it loves to strike unexpectedly, in places/moments that we least expect it to appear. Yet, a tiny fraction of your mind gives out light warning signals that there is a tendency for it to appear soon, no... NOW. "Oh..Ouch! Hey! S**t!!My money!! My heart!!" Then, the pick pocketer runs off with your wallet, the con man who conned you scurries off with your dearly departed money, the man/woman in the same train that you once thought was giving you seductive eye contact runs away with your heart, the gold digger who charmed you with his/her flowery language quietly steals away with your bank account number,your dignity AND your heart. That seems to happen when one becomes too naive/ignorant.

I doubt I can ever understand how a well carried/light conversation could still lead me to hunch over with hands clutching tightly to my chest as those eyes become blurry with salt water. I can never ever understand how I can get so smittened by the poetic atmosphere within the conversation though my mind continually yells at me to be skeptical/cautious. When all seems smooth, you startle everything to the extent that it slaps me in the face. But that is a good thing. I need a slap now and then to tell me that I am after all in the 'real' world. I am sorry for being naive. I am also sorry for having so mch pride till I lie so as to hide my feelings. I have been denying, denying and denying and even if you did notice my denial, you were nice enough to not point it out so as to save my 'face'. But I don't like this vulnerable feeling I am starting to feel right now. I am scared. Yes, I am scared too. And thats another reality.

Life is supposedly 'simple'. But I am not one who can make it simple. I am after all complicated. So complicated till I do not realize how naive I have become. Stupid reality.. stupid stupid reality, it hurts and you know it, Reality!
