oh my, another year again.. 2013.. the year I become quarter of a century old.  apart from letting this space gather dust, I think the past year has been a fruitful one and God has brought me through all the ups and downs that made up 2012.  The past year has been a strenuous boot camp on faith and I think perhaps my most happy achievement in 2012 ( Read more... )

I guess today I will share something that makes me feel very vulnerable; I hope I do not sound whiny.  Today, I saw an ex-colleague post on facebook a short writeup on her I did three years back while on internship.

So I've been working at the Chinese Chamber of Commerce for close to 3 weeks now.  It's been pretty good, but sitting at a desk for long periods of time needs a little getting used to.  These few weeks have been nice cos I've had some time to spend with friends; and I can read whatever I want and watch shows without feeling guilty about not ( Read more... )
