you're the one for me >>
but I do not know who and where you are........... < ">

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.

Cluttered- no more!

Your Mind is 58% Cluttered


Your mind is starting to get cluttered, and as a result, it's a little harder for you to keep focused.
Try to let go of your pettiest worries and concerns. The worrying is worse than the actual problems!






I just spent the last 45 minutes checking and answering emails only, by the time I am done, I am too tired to even go anywhere else online to do my next tasks. Oh what have I become? I do not want to be one of those people so occupied and busy with nothing other than work. That would be pathetic. I am supposed to be away from school this 2 weeks due to the course and unlike some other diligent SNOs who went back to school after the course ends at 12.30, I didnt. Not that I am lying around at home relaxing but I am at home still coordinating and working in front of the computer. I also thought that the VP and my RO are quite flexible with the timings, I shall spare them from the so many details about work. Haha. I did email my RO my holiday schedule so I guess that should be ok.

I am also way behind on my research for CPD team meeting. How am I to do the research when I have limited computer access at home? There is so much to do, its the holidays man, why am I buried in all these work stuff? I have not even start to plan about my lessons for next year. There are flashcards to make, worksheets to create, templates to create, learning centres to set up, resources to purchase, yada yada yada.

Hopefully the mid holidays will be better and I am more free. I shall make myself more free to organise myself so I will not be so cluttered when the term starts!

I am so happy that I finally got myself a walkman! I know, you must be thinking, why in the world this crazy girl still uses the walkman in this time? Haha. The truth is, I just got myself a few classic tapes from FED that I have been searching up and down for, so to be able to listen to it, I need a walkman since I spent more time outdoors travelling in buses or endlessly waiting for the bus to arrive. One of the tapes titled, ' Tongue the creative force' is one of the classic tapes that has yet to be converted into cd format. Due to this tape too, I shall refrain myself from typing negative and statements in this post and in future posts. I am determined to change my speech pattern in order for me to achieve Eagleship in the coming few months. Woohoo.

I promise I will continue with the FED story right. Ok here goes.

On the 2nd day of FED, the first session starts at 10 am but being such kiasu Singaporeans, we were the first in line. After rushing the girls to get ready and have breakfast, we managed to catch the first bus! Yay! We left the hotel at 8.30am. When we arrived, we could hear the freedom roar. I was thinking, oh no, someone arrived earlier than us? To our relief, it was Ender and team, who, to be the first team in line, walked from the hotel to the PGRM building. Wow, crazy people, but I like.

First speaker, my favourite, EDC Apple! She spoke about the system and I was truly amazed how I could relate with her when she spoken about the books. Here she was on stage, reading the same books as me, sitting in the middle of the auditorium. During the recognition session, I was also ecstatic to see some malays on stage, yay! There was this guy who used to be in politics (I cannot remember his position), and the wife too held a high position at work and they were brand new silvers. 300 silvers, 1 hour recognition. So many of them! And I am not there!

Of course before each session starts we will be 'high'. Haha. Imagine, a group of crazy people doing the same dance move and the rest of the auditorium follows. Oh my, I dont even know how to describe it, haha.

That same night we had the Diamond recognition for Sonny and Diana, Diamonds from Singapore, it was too short I thought, maybe next time they can speak for an entire hour.

It was a long day and there was the night owl going on at night. Its good that the night owl only lasts till 11.30 so people could go back and rest. We had special appearances by Diamonds Bo and Helen Alex and even though I was desperately trying to stay awake, I was able to grasp some of the messages that they were trying to convey, maybe I have gotten used to sleeping early, I feel sleepy by 10 pm nowadays.

Despite being tired and exhausted after a long day, we still were able to drag ourselves to the coffee shop to eat. The paper thosai is so delicious, even at 12.30 am, I have been having all these cravings for thosai, haha. We did not have a proper dinner as our food that was orginally catered for were cancelled due to it being tasteless. But still, it was no downer as we were too excited to even care about eating right.

We went back about 1 am, to pack our bags and get our outfits ready for the next day. More excitement to come the next day.

There is a seed in your heart that craves for success. Find it and do not ignore it.
