Friday, December 31, 2004
Don't intend to have any big celebration. Probably a gathering at J's friend house for a steamboat dinner.
Recap of 2004: Generally had been a good year for me. I started 2004 at Madam Wong, doing an out of ordinary incident. Offered my remaining tissues to a head bleeding young 20s lady who probably hit by a bottle from an ecstatic clubber. Will she remember me? A day before Chinese New Year eve, An old lady
was knocked flat right in front of me by a running youngster who wanted to beat the lights. Stunned. That young guy continue running away. And I quickly bring her to safety. Will she remember me? Somewhere later half of the year, an oldman needed help to alight the bus at Taka bus stop. He outstretched his left hand, and the other with a walking stick. The busstop was crowded, but no one moved. Stunned. I quickly lend my helping hand. Will he remember me? Maybe they will not, but I will. Felt a sense of satisfaction just to lend my helping hand. I guessed no one believe I was an angel to some! *chuckle*
Let me go down by months to do a check list on 2004
Jan: No luck from any job applications. Chinese New Year - a time to get together. Finally niece and nephew joined us for our visits.
Feb: Finally started temp work at Swarvoski with the help of P. Nervous month as Dad finally undergoes heart operation. Heart was crying when seeing Dad in pain but he managed to pull through.
Mar: Dad was recovering well. Booted myself from the noisy environment. I need peace. I need concentration to get a REAL JOB!!! Got a call for interview. Went twice. But they never called again. Was very pissed off. Even if not selected, they should call and let me know. Somemore I went for 2nd interview. Totally disgusted.
Apr: Managed to splurge a little with my little income. Got myself cable on Apr 14, thinking of catching lots of Juan Carlos during French Open!
May: J's birthday. But clueless what to get him, can't afford something worthy. It's either the meal or the gift. In the end, we had a good meal.
Jun: Got a job opening. Send resume. Knowing I can secure a place here, don't care what it is. Apply! Apply! Got through all interviews. And finally I get it. Thanks to few people and was truely happy that I going to start from somewhere. Mom finally want a pet, so we adopted a dog on 17th June when his previous owner is migrating. Welcome a stranger to our family! How will he looked like, a small dog? a Chihuahua? Nervous day..waited for him a few hours and finally saw it! Nervously, I dunno what to do to him. But slowly, I beginning to like it. Niki - I renamed him.
Jul: Frustrating month. I don't like July, Don't ask me why. Started to feel depressed, start doubting on my new job. Should I accept it? I HAVE TO! Totally clueless what's going around, all the jargons, all the management stuff. At one point of time, I was so frustrated. Lucky I had NiKi to pass my time.
Aug: Total depression. But I managed to patch the pieces. I know what I want for in my life. To stay happy, To be happy, To be with my choice. No regrets.
Sep: Retrenchment month. Felt being tossed around. Knowing what's going to happen but had to keep my cool. Seeing the crude side of a working environment. And now i know, nothing is secure even if U had laid your life for work. Only your family is always there.
Oct: Clueless what's going to happened. Very unhappy month. I spent my days dragging my feet to work. I need my bearings. I want to sail!
Nov: Still dragging my feet. Started planning what to do for year end. A trip? with Who? To Perth? To Bali? No answers.
Dec: I love this month. Year end, time for big celebration. My birthday, My holiday. Finally get to go out of my confined zone. Enjoyed my trip. But the happiness did not last long. Tragedy struck. Everyone looks disturbed. Do we have a choice? Mother Earth - What had you done to us?
12 more hours, 2004 will be going down to the history books. For some, it will be their longest day. I hoped those can find their love ones cause' I know the feeling of missing is hard to bear. I will say my prayers. I will pray to Lord Buddha.
