Faith On Tuesday
Waking up crying from a nightmare is possibly the worst start to a day; especially when you've got an interview in a couple of hours and you just can't find it in you to be perky.
A few posts ago, Alli made this comment:
"Put God first ... seek first what he wants and ALL these things - all the extras and hidden add-ons will be given to you. "
I don't know if you realized the impact these words had on me babe. For every doubt that I had during the entire week, I reflected upon your words and mental forced myself to have faith.
The call-back interview took only half an hour and by the time I was out - I was glowing like a pregnant woman, or for lack of a better description, coyly grinning like the Mona Lisa.
As of next Monday, I'm starting work as the Marketing Executive for a business education institution that caters professional accounting courses. The pay's not great (better than that darn newspaper's though) but that's inconsequential - I'm being paid to learn and I gather that's a pretty good bargain considering I know nuts about marketing.
Plus, they're letting me take a week's leave to go for my convocation in August. Whooohoo.
I've been doing mental victory jiggies throughout the day. Am deliriously happy with how things have turned out. How things that I did not expect, came my way anyway.

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. - Hebrews 11:1
I'm currently in battle mode and I know that I can conquer all - whatever it may be.
Thank you for your book Kenie.

hmm..u want a Brit guy, ask Finn..he might know of some *wink*. hehe
Was researching my trip and realised they take me to a ex-CONCENTRATION CAMP in Germany, I'm so traumatised...I think I will skip that part. I couldnt even bear to click on the website link...especially when they said not for the sensitive (referring to the gas....u know..*shudders*)
That's a bit of a damper...
who's Finn?
oh darned. no chocs for me then.
I, Merv Kwok, agree to take Kim/Keem/Kimick to a nice dinner at somewhere nice/fancy/not kopitiam when she comes down to Singapore. However, I shall only agree to this assuming Kim eats less than a 100 bucks worth of food.

omg this is freaky. right after i read your entry and clicked on comments, the first thing that i wanted to say was ... yeaahh babeehhh. is that freaky or is that freaaaky?(!) hahaha. Yay for Kim!! marketing sounds like fun. you go get em you tigress you!
I, Kimberley Lau Lee Hung, solemnly swear on my Lassie's unmarked grave that I will not (and am not capable of) eat more than 100 bucks (American Dollars?) when I dine with Merv Kwok.
(But can I bring Mich too? I swear both of us won't cost more than 100. Hehe)
xx (^OO^) xx
Kim.
Rom...i think work in your office has severely damaged your social life, resulting in your amazement with cutesy coincidences =)
AND OI. if you don't look me up before you go back, I WILL come to TIGRESSS you.
*RowR*
