You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to 'All things bright and beautiful'. This personifies a caring person, a person who 'needs' and indeed 'needs to be needed'.

You are trying to improve your position and prestige - be it in your life or in your workplace. Things are, at this time, OK - but they could be better. You feel that it is essential that you break down any opposition that could possibly lurk in the shadows. You know that you are quite capable of achieving this set goal because you have to and because it is essential to your self esteem.

You feel tired - worn out and listless. The last thing that you want to do is to be in an open conflict with those around you that are forever tormenting you. What to do? That's the rub. You are feeling that you are being choked - unable to breathe.

Presently, you are experiencing stress because of restriction on your independence. You need and seek respect from other people and it is essential that they appreciate you for yourself and not for what they would like you to be. You have your own beliefs and convictions and you would like to be respected for them. You are anxious to avail yourself of every opportunity that may come your way but nevertheless, come what may, you have the need to control your own destiny without imposed limitations or restrictions.

You wish to be left in peace... no more conflict and no more differences of opinion. In fact you just don't want to be involved in arguments of any shape or form. All you want is for 'them' to get on with it - and to leave you alone.

A little break

Finally had the time to update my blog. The past few days have been rather hectic since it was year-end. Really thankful that today and tomorrow were holidays. Guess I didn't realise how beneficial a little break can be. Even my weekends had been rather packed since I've started work, probably because that was the only time that I would get to go out and meet up with friends.

It's another year again. The past 6 months have been rather eventful, though it had gone by without much fanfare and surprises either. I had graduated, found a job and the economy is good. Looking back, I realised that God had blessed me in more ways than one yet I still lamented about the things that I lacked. Perhaps my new year resolution this year should be to learn to be grateful for what I have and not complain so much. I still remembered the resolution I made at the beginning of last year, regarding the lg. Oh well, I suppose it's time to move on and not to stick to my comfort zone anymore.

what does the future hold? I guess only God knows...

What does Christmas mean to you?

It was never about Santa Claus or Christmas trees...
Do you know the true mean of Christmas?

Emmanuel has come
by Don Moen

Christmas is about His glory
Christmas is about His grace
Christmas is a gift of love
Our Father gave us
More than just another story
About a special time and place
Christmas is a time to lift
A song of praise

(chorus )
For God is with us
And we celebrate the glory of His presence
Christ has come to fill our hearts with love
He came to save us
King of Kings and Lord of Lords
His name is Jesus
God with us
Emmanuel has come

Angels fill the night with singing
God is reaching out to man
Bringing us a gift of hope in Christ our Savior
More than just a time of giving
This is God’s eternal plan
And Christmas is the reason we can sing again

(chorus )
For God is with us
And we celebrate the glory of His presence
Christ has come to fill our hearts with love
He came to save us
King of Kings and Lord of Lords
His name is Jesus
God with us
Emmanuel has come

Trust

So many things on my mind that I do not know what to write anymore. I guess at times trust between people is rather fragile. Just one incident can cause it to be broken, and once broken, it's difficult to build it up again. Maybe it's better this way. At least I do not have to be too mindful of them anymore or to be afraid of antagonizing them. We were never friends to begin with.

To be joyful in all circumstances, whether good or bad.

Look up to the Cross and I could see the ultimate sacrifice.

To be betrayed by the very people He had come to save.

Who am I to complain now?

Short-term memory

Realised that my memory is getting from bad to worse nowadays, especially when I'm at work. So prone to forgeting things that were on my mind just a few seconds ago.

if only some things were that easy to forget...

Time

Let's see if this can get posted.

Read in the newspaper today that some companies are using SMS as an added feature in their queue system, so that people do not have to waste time queuing up. Guess that's good isn't it? But at times I wonder, is that really true? Are we really in such a rush that we cannot afford to wait for perhaps 15 - 30 minutes anymore? There seemed to be a trend; fast food, SMS queue system, instant food etc. Customers are expecting so much, in so little time. And aren't we all customers as well? With everything done so fast and efficiently, one would think that we would have more time on our hands now. Yet don't we always lament about how fast time flies and how we always do not have enough time?

Patience. It's really getting rare nowadays.

Should I stay or should I go?

3 years...perhaps it's time to move on...

Lunch, shopping, dinner

The weekend is ending, really soon.

Yesterday was quite a packed day. Went to Hyatt for lunch to celebrate my bro's birthday in advance, cos his actual birthday is this coming Saturday. Then, I went over to the newly-opened Vivocity to meet SJ and Ting. It was supercrowded!! Perhaps more crowded than TM on a Sat evening. Shopped a little while there and I finally bought a new pair of sandals, after delibrating for so many weeks. Maybe it's just me, but there are times when I have gotten so used to something that I did not want to change it until I'm forced to.

Anyway, we ended up eating at Subway as everywhere else was so packed. And as usual, I ended up late for LG. Heez, so what else is new huh?

Guess it's fairly easy to see everything in the short-term and missed the big picture altogether. Why do we always get so hung up on the little things that we perhaps will never know the answer to and yet neglect to work on the things that we can control?

Does adversity really make a better man out of us? The more we have, the more we can lose. That's so true isn't it? Does my spirit need to be broken before it can be whole again?

I'm just afraid I won't be strong enough

Working Style

Your Working Style

You have a great deal of warmth, but may not show it until you know a person well. You keep your warm side inside, like a fur-lined coat. You are very faithful to duties and obligations related to ideas or people you care about. You take a very personal approach to life, judging everything by your inner ideals and personal values.

You stick to your ideals with passionate conviction. Although your inner loyalties and ideals govern your lives, you find these hard to talk about. Your deepest feelings are seldom expressed; your inner tenderness is masked by a quiet reserve.

In everyday matters you are tolerant, open-minded, understanding, flexible, and adaptable. But if your inner loyalties are threatened, you will not give an inch. Except for your work's sake, you have little wish to impress or dominate. The people you prize the most are those who take the time to understand your values and the goals you are working toward.

Your main interest lies in seeing the possibilities beyond what is present, obvious, or known. You are twice as good when working at a job that you believe in, since your feeling adds energy to your efforts. You see the needs of the moment and try to meet them. You want your work to contribute to something that matters to you--human understanding, happiness, or health. You want to have a purpose beyond your paycheck, no matter how big the check. You are perfectionists whenever you care deeply about something.

You are curious about new ideas and tend to have insight and long-range vision. You are interested in books and language and are likely to have a gift of expression; with talent you may be excellent writers. You can be ingenious and persuasive on the subject of your enthusiasms, which are quiet but deep-rooted. You are often attracted to counseling, teaching, literature, art, science, or psychology.

The problem for you is that you may feel such a contrast between your inner ideals and your actual accomplishments that you may burden yourself with a sense of inadequacy. This can happen even when, objectively, you are being as effecive as others. It is important for you to find practical ways to express your ideals; otherwise you will keep dreaming of the impossible and accomplish very little. If you find no actions to express your ideal, you can become overly sensitive and vulnerable, with dwindling confidence in life and in yourself.

Tired

I know I've mentioned before that I only want to blog about happy things in this blog, but...

I'm feeling really tired. Not just today, but for the past 2 weeks. Wonder what got into me. Felt like being irresponsible and not caring anymore. Read somewhere that Fiona means persevering. Guess I'm not very true to my name then. Maybe I'm stressed out but I don't know why. It's not as if the workload is that heavy.

What is happening?? Is this delayed reaction to the start of my working life?? Can somebody please enlighten me?
