You can call me Noi! This blog consists of my thoughts. I am just a simple person with BIG dreams! Like the charcoal, hot pressure and extreme heat must be present in order to create a Diamond. I am in the exact same process.

A series of unfortunate/stupid events
I have never really believed in good luck and bad luck. It was not logical to me, your luck is what you made it out to be. On Monday, I changed my mind about this.
You know how bad things just keep happening to you, one after another? I am not blaming circumstances but let me just share about the series of unfortunate/stupid events in that happened.
It all started early in the morning. It was like any other school day, woke up while its still dark and get ready to rush for the bus. 63 on this side of the road usually arrives at 6.20. I was walking to the bus stop at 6.15, and thats when I saw the bus just left. Damn, I thought. Let me just cross over so that I can take 63 from the other side to Eunoslink and then take 59 from there. 63 came, about 6.20 and as soon as it reaches the Eunoslink bus stop, I saw 59, right in front of 63. I am going to be late! Its already 6.25 and I am still stuck there!
So I thought, let me NOT be paranoid and wait patiently for the bus. 5 mins. 10 mins. The bus was not there! I finally called my mum to deliver the happy news that I was still there. Thank goodness, my Dad was around to send me to school on motorbike. So we finally left Eunoslink at 6.50, that was the same time 59 arrived. So everything was ok and I was still not trying to panic. Suddenly at Bendemeer, the motorbike was making noises. It was a shrieking sound and its coming from the engine. Dad drop me off slightly away from school, and he went off, saying the engine is breaking down.

Ok, what a horrible start to the day but still, I was not going to let it ruin my day.
SO the day went on, crazy and hectic as always. I was rushing work because I wanted to go home at 4 pm since I am meeting Naf at 6 pm. So I rushed home, took a bath and got ready in the fastest mode I could possible can.
Of course I was late. You know, ever since moving here, I am always late. I cannot get the hang of waiting for the only 1 bus that goes to the train station. Plus, there is always a traffic jam, both ways! Via Paya Lebar and Ubi or via Eunos. How else am I suppose to get to the train station quickly? Fly? (Note: Do not move here, its the worst location, unless you have a car of course.)
As soon as I reached Orchard at 6.35 (I know, very late!) I was about to withdraw money when I realised, I did NOT bring my wallet! Isnt that the stupidest thing I have done today? So how am I suppose to pay for dinner and entry fee for function?
Somehow, I thought I better stay away from anything anymore because I seem to be dropping things, forgetting things, you know. Lucky for me, my lucky star Naf was there to save the day! Thank you dear. I know I must looked really terrible yesterday. It was a really bad day, and Fazrin mentioned that I looked like I was about to cry. I did looked like hell.
I will not cry over a series of unfortunate/stupid events. I am stronger than that.
Fortunately too, the function was able to turn my day around. It was so awesome, so crowded, so right to be there. The speaker was funny! Naf and me were also so lucky to be sitting in front of Singapore Diamonds, Sonny and Diana. It WAS awesome. The speaker's wife looked so young! I thought she was still in her 20s!
Anyway whatever they said made sense. The training was so wonderful, it was focused. I like it. Leadership sessions are always awesome. Nandha somehow made it so simple, oh well, it is simple, people made it complicated. I think I need to go back to basics, rediscover my true values and goals in life.
I shall be doing that. I am excited about the future. I believed it will be better than the present. The present is already better than the past, we have to keep changing, not because the world is changing, but we change because we want things to be better. Growth. Happiness. Recognition. Satisfaction. Success. They are achievable. You have got to believe in it first before it does happen.
Meanwhile, I shall remain open to new ideas, closed to negativity and negative thoughts.
I am going to have the largest group in the BWW team and they are all in the 20s and 30s. I have the youngest tean of winners! Woohoo.
See ya Friday for BBS!
