August

Let's see where I've been and what I've been up to for the month of August. I've been traveling so much till my body finally broke down 2 days ago and I fell sick. Lemme see, 4 trips back to Alor Setar, 2 trips to PD, 1 trip to malacca and 1 trip to penang. Yea. Pretty much that's what you need to get me sick. It's not all work. Partly for work, partly for band, for leisure, and also to help out some friends.

Anyway I had to chance to work for D'Jungle People. Guess what I was assigned to this time...?



Uhuh..I had to dress up like a pirate. Some even they held at 1 Utama. I was not alone tho..


We had to walk around 1 u carrying clues for teams to solve for their game. It's like a massive name finding game-task-doing-game with 400 employees for a company running around hunting for us. Was fun. heh.

Everyone stared of course. We had people walking up to us to take pics as well.



This is Kelly. The ah-belle lookalike. Doesn't she look Isabel? no?





Going back home more often now gives me the chance to meet up with my buddy, Chuckie. 8 years ago I held this lil pup in my arms and he was dirty, smelly and hurt. Somehow the owner didn't really care for him. We took him home, and now if he stands on his 2 feet, he's as tall as my chest level.


Remember the story I told about a monitor lizard entering my home years ago? And how me, my dad and Chuckie had a hard time catching that reptile?

Well, whad'ya know, few weeks ago was just coming back from an appointment at my home when I met...



Long TIME NO SEE!!! This was taken at just my neighbour's neighbour.


After chatting and catching up, he decided to ciao first...




Anyway I didn't take pics for so many events. Lazy. But check this out....our friend Ee Chia actually grew in height and size!!



Power right? Almost the same height as me..Dunno what she ate....
...

...

Yea..actuallyyyyy..that's not Ee Chia. That's Elaine.( I hope I spelled it correctly) We met at LIFE Retreat Camp. But she looks soooo like ee chia. She talks like her, smiles like her..hair also same....


Anyway that's about the pics I have for now. Should've taken more. Work's been good. Life's been good. Financially, I have tasted what it's like to have no money. Because I don't get a fixed basic salary, my income is based pretty much on how I perform in my work. Till now, I know what it feels to have your petrol 'empty' light switch on for the past 20 mins and have no money in the bank or pocket to pay for petrol. I've tasted what it feels to have no money to go out for a meal, and have nothing left at home to consume. To even open a new bank account for my money to come in, I had no money. heh. I will not be ashamed to tell this, sometimes when I go for conferences or camps, the powdered coffee and coffee mate they leave in hotel rooms comes in handy for me when I don't even have enough to buy coffee back home. Finally, you hope and pray that nothing goes wrong..your car...and your body...cos that's when cash is needed again..

I've tasted all this...And I could only say, that all this have drove me to work even harder..to treasure every cent and ringgit that I earn...

And God has been good. He is good.

Though I had to cut down on some church activities, I still chose to honour Him on Sundays. I didn't choose to work on the Sabbath. I still chose to serve faithfully when I still can.

I've been blessed out of my socks. In one month of sales, comparing to a new agent, I think I've seen and met much more less people than they. I've work much less than them. The average sales you will get out of 10 people you see will be around 1 or 2. Sales people, I think you know best..

I've didn't have to walk that path. Out of 5 people I meet, 3 people will take up the offer. Out of 10 people, 9. In a month, God has blessed me with an income larger than I can ever imagine. How large? Let's just say more than 3 times the amount I was hoping for my first income.

I will always be grateful.

Thank you for the life You gave
Thank you for the promises You made.
You walk with me through fire
I trust in You
Every blessing I have, I will turn it into praise.

Ja.
