For the sake of happyhannon's success in job applications, i've sworn off my fav. hongkong serial (yes you heard me right.. i actually like hk drama serials now) and my newest xbox game from cash converter(a cheapo run down second hand shop that reeks of the mouldy smell of a badly serviced air-conditioning system) "the sims-breaking out". it's an act of consecration, a sign from myself to God that I am indeed sincere in seeking Him and asking Him to quickly end happyhannon's misery of waiting for so long. At this point, any news is good news. But if the news is really a bad one, then i will also need the grace to handle with the aftermath of a very very depressed happyhannon. So the consecration and the prayers would also help, one way or another.

Panda's Rhapsody
To help you understand my panda obsession. The panda in this advertisment is so cute. I'm such a sucker for cute advertisements that guess what, for my birthday i got a creative zen! You won't think i'm that crazy once you've watched this ad.Labels: i'm a slave for you

If only every mountain in our lives could look as idyllic as this. but my mountain of troubles do not. Yesterday (Sat), this large event that i was in charged of should have been the last bump on the mountainous range that i've been trekking for some months. But things went horribly wrong as we approached the summit such that, after the event and now standing on the summit, all i see is another long mountainous range in my path. And i'm sick of screaming, ranting and crying about it. So i'm going to do something very different now.
I'm turning to look back at the mountaintop moments and thank God for them. Sure there were the valleys but i have not thank my God for the many things He has done for me.
- He has given me friends/colleagues who are very understanding to me and are always encouraging me whenever i feel depressed especially as an extremely difficult passage loomed on my path. Whether it is that individual in the office or that single sms, things like these have helped me keep sane.
- He has given me a great husband who has to put up not only with my long absence from home (especially the last three saturdays) but also my horrible moods when i come back home, being emotionally and physically spent. And he even cleans up the house without me asking too!
These two things have helped me to be where I am today. There were many times as i was planning for this event that I got so frustrated that I hated not only myself but God. Yet these two things have rallied behind me; put some perspective in my telescopic world of dirt, grime and cold. Such that when i look back now, I believe that the reality was not just about the treacherous paths that i took and the precipitous cliffs that overlook the abyss. Although i cannot see, i believe. I believe that the real picture of my life the past 2 months has been this picture above.
Another picture-perfect moment in the lifebook of eternity.Labels: inspiration
