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.

Ni xing fen ma?!! / Tuesday, November 25, 2008 @ 11:22 PM
I am in so much excitement from FED that I am truly finding it difficult to describe the entire event with mere words. I am so glad that I went but honestly I was distracted because I left a lot of things incomplete and there was so much to do. Everything was pending but when I left my workplace on Thursday, I had to leave all the thoughts behind and concentrate on getting there.
It was weird on the first night simply because my room mates were only going to be there on Saturday morning which means that I have the room all to myself! Friday night was great as we had night owl with Kumar for the Gala team from Malaysia and Singapore and it was sooooo crowded! Some had to stand the whole time. I was actually soooo sleepy and I kept blinking my eyes and thank goodness I was seated at the back. Still, Kumar talking and I cannot keep myself awake? Thats terrrible!
But! Hearing Kumar trying to say "Ni xing fen ma?!" was hilarious!
The night owl finally ended at about 1 am, and thanks to ImNeo who arrange for us to stay in a nearby hotel. It really saved a lot of trouble especially when we know that we will be back late. The girls were arriving at 4 am but I was so sleepy I accidently dozed off from 2.30 am to 3.30 am. Thank you Fir and Eric who were so worried that I wanted to go pick the girls up by myself. In the end Fir went in my place while we wait in the hotel lobby for them. As soon as the girls got settled, I sunk on the bed and sleep. We had to be up by 5.30 am so I was grabbing all chances to sleep!
Saturday was better, fresher. I wanted to make sure I am awake and able to absorb all the teachings for the day. Sitting in front is cool. I dont have to rush to line up or book seats except seats for the team. It is sooooo great to sit behind the Emeralds, everyone up front is so near! So exciting and definately more impactful!
"We have to find ourselves first before we find others. "-- EDC Alvin Tham
I like Alvin Tham. He reminds me of the hero in chinese drama. Haha! Even though he was speaking in mandarin, his words has very deep meaning behind it. I was listening in to all the things he went through and am so full of admiration for this person who quited 4 times! 4 times!
Wow.
I thought Saturday was the day with the longest recognition. So many diamonds my goodness! The most incredible was the Diamond Aaron, so short, so young, wow, it is sooo awesome to see such young diamonds! Amazing!
The third day was the best! I like the morning session where each diamond were given a few minutes to share. I am sure you all enjoyed Cheong Kwee Fatt's story, his story is so inspiring. What excuses can we give, if someone illiterate and was once a gangster made it happen?
I have no excuses.
Of course it was tradition to eat a lot during FED. But this FED I was in no mood to eat, I just wanted to get things done. I thought this FED was the most emotional FED I have ever attended with Kak Yati reminding me not to cry at every lifestyle video that was shown.
I know, I am not crybaby ok.
However on the third day, they showed this video that caused me to cry 3 times. Yes 3 times! They screened it twice due to some technical challenges and I cried both times and darn it I did not have a tissue. Thanks to Margaret who saw the state I was in and slipped to me the tissue. I thought I was the only one.
I was not.
This same video again caused me to cry when we were doing sharing in the bus. I do not know what is up with everybody being in tears. I tell you, I have never attended a sharing session similar to a crying session but I think those who were there, those were filled with emotions, those who know what is emotional dream, are the same people who will make it happen.
Yup, money alone is not enough to make me want to do this.
Despite all the things I had to go through, I know that God has a master plan, a bigger plan for me. And I had to go through all the challenges so that I will be ready to lead the team to the next level. To stay strong, to be there when they need me, to motivate, to encourage, to support, to cheer, to believe in them and most importantly, to never give up on them.
For my family, for their freedom, for their peace of mind, I am blown away by this blessing truly. I shall make it happen.
I shall share with you the video in my next entry............;)
