April-ful

I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head sayin,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they might knock me down but
No I’m not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I’m going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going

And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you're going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It’s all about
It’s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

 

On my way back today, I got the mood to pen down things happened in this month. Just as I think back, it is only the 9th day of April but I felt like it has been a one full month…

Suddenly I can hear someone shouting ‘please update your blog’.

April started with our team been busy working before launching POS system at all outlets started this Tuesday. I am grateful that we can work together. And I thank God that each person in this team are great team players. We have been going back home near midnight and two days ago, I thought I lost my car key but later found out that the car key was still inside the car. Today, we all left by 10pm. One more week and we should be quite done with the launch. Hopefully. KF said to some of us it is like a dream, or it can be a burden. Whatever it is, I am grateful that we made it that far. I believe we are entering into something new.

Jin finally moved into the new house. And we finally agreed t to get the curtain that we wanted. Hopefully. I never realize that it is NOT EASY to select curtains even though I see curtains everyday. I also got myself an eyelet ready made curtains for my bedroom’s 2 panel window at a 50% discount during our End of Season Sale. It only cost me RM100++. We also got ourselves cotton shaggy rug at the Giant Kelana Jaya. We tried to bargain for that RM20 discount with the foreign guy. In the end, we managed to bargain but I felt we are so cheapskate. Worse still, I felt the price we got is still pricey. Anyway, it is the white color shaggy rug that I wanted. And Jin like it too. I hope.

Jin also finally got himself a black steel color E71. Now we are officially saying bye bye to our W960i. To celebrate Jin’s first month of working, we asked pastor, Esther and Eitan for dinner at the Westin. It was a great dinner. Eitan is lovely. And I am officially auntie Laverne. The King was in KL for the F1 event and it was a good Friday night out. I also met Hungcai at his workplace. It was like a year ago when I met him in KL. Friend, I am bringing you to church!!

4u4u9 - we had our subzone newcomers party at CHEC. Well done to all the leaders in our subzone as they have been faithfully planning and run the entire event. We had the Sparks for laughter to perform. Though it rain heavily before we started, but it has been a great night together and we had a total of 85 people. Woohooo. Sean and Tom are great people and I learn from their attitude of serving. Lynnette is really good with leading big group of crowd and I appreciate Kar Heng for having great attitude throughout all these.

After 1 week of pain, I can finally walk with my heels properly. I sprained my ankle (until it became red, big, round and painful) during our first department outing for a badminton game. I am so angry at myself for not wearing shoes tightly/properly and as a result, I get big fat ankle and super painful treatment by the Chinese physician. It hurts and cost me RM40. Alright, I am ready for the next game!!!!

Jin and I went for a medical check up and we are getting our report this Saturday. Don’t know why I feel so nervous about it. When I was there waiting for my turn for the nurse to take my blood sample, there was this young boy screaming and tried to escape but the mother and the nurse were catching him. It was really very drama and I pity the boy. He was really helpless and in fear. And right after that was my turn. At first, I was OK but don’t know why, my heart got a little nervous just the few second before the needle poked in to the skin. Anyway, it was cool, fast and it was not painful at all. I am serious.

As I was planning to minimize on going through tolls this month, I have been trying to go out early so that I can use the small roads. Yesterday night, Alvin showed us the new shortcut without having to go through the RM1.30 toll and gosh it is so near. God answered my prayer. If going through 16 bumps can save me RM2.60, that means I have to go through 160 bumps to save RM100…

There are more things coming up this month. Jin is going to be outstation on the third week and I should be going for a conference in Singapore that time. Quite look forward to it and hope to stay for the weekend to catch up with my friend.

4 more months to our Bali outing. We bought 9 pax of Bali package during MATTA fair. If everything goes smoothly, we should be leaving on a jet plane on the independence day!

Bought new guitar string but have yet to change them. Oh, I have been playing this song in my heart – The Climb by Miley Cyrus.
