What I've been up to..

I'm not sure if anyone cares to read about this, but since I'm feeling "zonk", I'll just exercise this opportunity to inflate my ego and believe that there are busy, world-changing, loving people who actually do drop in here occasionally to to catch up on the story of my life..

Life has been speeding by me the last couple of days.

To make this entry more pleasing to the eye, allow me to list the updates in point form.

1. To my utter horror, I realize my muscles have been developing 5 inches below the target spot. I wanted to develop stronger chest muscles, I ended up with a little pouch.. Sheesh.

2. I spent another wad of cash on new pair of soccer boots, (new season coming up!) a pair of new specs (makes me look nerdy, but that is in fashion right??). Feeling utterly guilty. But then again, they were legitimate replacement purchases.

3. The family vacation is finally on!. After years of waiting, I'm finally going for a holiday and not thinking about work or national security. Not sure if a trip overseas with the family will be the most relaxing, but hey, even though I gotta pay for airfare, at least I get free accommodation. Gotta be grateful.

4.I'm enjoying my work in Halogen Foundation.Its been a crazy, fun filled, never dull month working full time with a cause that is close to my heart. Just received a bigger portfolio to work on. Its kinda flattering to have the confidence in your work, when I feel I've still be trying to find my feet around the office.

5. I didn't fall in love. Now, you might wonder why did I put this point down, since its not exactly news worthy. But to me, not falling in love is an achievement. The last couple of weeks, I've reflected on my 'dating life'. There were a couple of possibilities, and several, erm.. close calls. But thru the grace of God, a spanner or two (figuratively) were thrown in before the possible (disastrous) relationship could actually take place. But nothing happened. Looking it back, I see God's hand in it. The best lesson I've learn thus far is this; Love is a choice. Love is also a source of violate energy. Therefore, although there might be intense mutual attraction, falling in love with a person is a choice and I should not rush into it or falling in love with the ideology of love.

I guess the best circumstance to fall in love is when two individuals are comfortable
with one another and can be themselves; accepting each other's past and having each other in mind; plotting a future together with God in the center of their lives.

6. I've been feeling lethargic and under the weather. Silly of me to attempt to be aggressive in tennis on May day when I was struggling to catch up. For my effort, I slipped, and swung my racket right smack into my face. End result. Bleeding gum and a slightly swollen lip.

7. Looking forward to Spiderman 3. Its been a long while since I went for a mass movie outing. Keeping my fingers crossed it'll be enjoyable.
