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.

I am so happy its the weekends! But its not for the reasons you think. This week has been particularly hectic for me even though lessons only start next week. The first week of school is always extra hectic with all the testing and the time tabling. Planning the timetable drove me nuts! However I think I shall credit myself for getting it done and the best part was getting it done by leveraging on the resources and time that I have in school.
I went home late everyday for this week and I am not proud of it. I am determined to not bring work home but I did not get to finish my work yesterday and here I am bringing home work for the weekends. Perhaps I am putting so much pressure on myself but I have always believe in showcasing excellence in whatever I do so being pressured by myself is all part of the package. Apart from that, I have also been asked to share with the parents on what I do. Let's see, I will be seeing parents from P1 to P6 and I was just informed yesterday! Gosh. Its not that I am unhappy with it. I mean, if the principal did not think I was good enough she would not have asked me to do this right? I just hate it that I was informed so last minute especially when classes start next week!
So enough about work, I am actually super excited for tomorrow's function! Yay! This is Kumar you know, its not just any Diamond. The news was again so last minute and I have been spending the last 2 nights on the phone.
Please, even if you have something on, it will be worth it to attend this! This guy is the most sought after speaker worldwide, and he is here to teach, if you want to learn something beneficial, be there. The rest of you may stay home to watch the tv, I am sure you will learn something from there too. (being sarcastic by the way haha)
Last night, for some reason I decided to call this team mate of mine whom I have not seen in a long time. He was not suprised that I called because he knew that I would call him one day. Frankly, I was suprised by the openess. In a nutshell, I did not have the chance to work with him back then. Despite being away, I am amazed with his positive speech pattern. I was also sad to hear all the health challenges and it suddenly daunted on me that, I can make a difference in this person's life. I regret not taking the leadership back then, but that was in the past and it was such a costly mistake. I cannot afford to be weak, I have to stay strong for the team.
After the conversation ended, I was honoured that he trust me enough to move on, and now building depth is no longer a want or a necessity, it has become a vitality. And even though I knew that I have been impacting lives, it was this phonecall that the reminded me how taking initiative to call can lead to huge significant changes that people have been waiting for.
That one phonecall was all it took for me to be reminded of the power I have to make a difference. I have always believe that God placed someone in front of me when times go bad, as a reminder that I am not meant to quit.
There were 2 roads, I took the one less traveled. It made all the difference.
