1 December marks a week since I started working. So far, works have been alright, in fact, i have been taskless despite a few basic things I've learnt. My co-workers have been good to me. The only thing bothering me is about the so-called sharing toilet. Since 99% of the employees here are men, there's only one toilet and it's really meant for men! You know what I mean.. Worse, the water is terribly dirty.. Like yellowish. So then I decided not to drink so much water or else, I got to go to 'their' toilet. :-( hopefully things will get better as time passes by. Cos I heard that the management office,that is my office, is going to move to the second floor, and there's a toilet there,which I expect to be much better than the first floor here. I am also hoping for a better water condition.
Fyi, I am actually working at the hangar, just next to the airport. And basically I am not dealing with the ticket directly and I don't get a discounted price. Most of the time, except my co-workers and a few management staff, I only see technicians and engineers. Sadness.. Hehe.
That's about my working environment so far.. :-)

I got a job!
Praise God! Alleluia!
Friends! Thanks a lot for your prayers all the while. I am finally getting to work for real soon!
As I posted before that I was going through interview and test. Yesterday, the company [Batavia Air] called me and confirmed my eligibility to work with them. Although the salary is comparatively low, but I take this as my first experience. (much better than me being jobless).
I still can't stop thanking God and mostly Mother Mary. Friends, tell ya, Novena really works! No matter how bad/difficult your situation is, always pray! and I recommend you to pray Novena. Mother Mary does listen to every prayer we ask her to intercede for us. Such an amazing Mother, isn't she? :) Why am I so sure about that? Cos this isn't the first time my prayer through Novena is answered. I believe it, do you? ^^
I was praying what should I be doing and where, to God, cos I know, no matter how I plan it, only His will that will happen. I was also praying if I could go to France with some scholarship, or if I could get accepted in VOA to work in the US for some time. But now I think He wants me to stay, and so I will. But more than that, of course, I still have long term plans after. Keep on praying ^^.
Oiala, I feel much relieved now, I will have some income to save for 2011 Plan :)
I hope to see some of you in Madrid 2011! hehe.. If I do go there :)
That's all for now.
Take care all!
God bless!

Job interview
I just had a job interview day before yesterday [Thursday]. I so happened saw the vacancy on newspaper a week before. The interview went well and yesterday I indeed had a Psychology Test as the next step of the job interview process. My first time for such test! hehe.. It was okay though. And I have 2 weeks to know if I get accepted to the job.
Wondering what job is that? :p
It's an Admin position at a Local Airline company. ^^,
"If it is Your will, let it be done according to Yours.." Amen.

Sickness
Within one month, I got sick for three times! O October, why?
First was few days after I got back home from Malaysia (beginning of the month). I got fever flu and cough.
And last week I got food poisoning. After 4 days of thinking what was the cause, I only realised it was because of the Coconut ice @ Es Teler 77 resto. I remember it tasted weird when I drank it, but I didn't think about other things, I just kept drinking it (and finished it!). Gosh, if only I ordered the Es Teler instead of the Coconut ice... [Cos my friends ordered the Es Teler and they're okay].
After those 4 days having my stomach ached, my dad came home from Jakarta and he gave me another Chinese medicine. Started from that onwards til the morning, my stomach really hurt badly. I couldn't sleep throughout the whole night and could only cried and shouted as a result of the pain. In the end, I gave up not to see a doctor. The next morning I went to a doctor and he said I had some bacterias in my stomach. He gave me medicine and thanked God, I recovered soon after that.
Not long after that stomachache, flu attacked me again.
What sign is this?
"I am really sick of being sick.. "
But anyway, thank God it's November! Hope the good will soon come :)

3rd week of October '09
My dad and my brother are away this week to China. Therefore, I am working everyday this week! I am helping out my mom in the store. I feel the tiredness of working for a whole day 6/7. Wake up in the morning, open the store, and go home to rest a while in the afternoon then come back to work again.
Anyway, thanks be to God that I've managed this week well so far. I still go for French class, Guitar class, and one daily mass (lead the Rosary prayer also:)). And last Thursday, I met up with a Finnish friend. She was here for 3 days before continuing to go to Bali. She's just like other Western youths who love to travel a lot and fyi, she's been traveling for 9 months to Asian countries. That's really nice! :P She's a nice person. We get along well, we talked about things as I was taking her around the city for food. Took her for Mie Pangsit Ayam, Terang Bulan, and Nasi Pecel. Not so much about the places of interests though. And I really needed to manage my time cos a lot of things happening at the same time for the last 2 days.
Today is already Saturday! Feel like going to my cousin's house for karaoke but my stomach's been unwell for the past 3 days. -_-"
There's a Retreat going on starting today til tomorrow. I really wish I could go but I know that my mom couldn't be alone, and just for safety reason. Although I asked her for a few times but still, the same answer she gave me. I hope there'll be more of this coming. :)
That's about it for now.
I'll blog again when I am in the mood and bon ambiance.
Au revoir!
God bless.

Weak week which turned out Great in the end
Last week I was having fever and flu. Fever for like 3 days and flu till now - about a week already. I guess it is partly because I've been forcing myself so much during my vacation to Taiwan and Malaysia. I walked so much since morning til night, under the HOT sun in the afternoon. Man, that was really exhausting somehow.. So anyway, I basically didn't 'move around' so much last week, just stayed at home. But still Praise God, despite of that, I managed to go for French Exam, which was super late cos it was supposed to be done in the middle of September and now it's like mid of October. O well, anyways, I passed the exam! Praise God! Although I knew that I didn't do my best during the exam as I was sick and mostly because I forgot how to speak French! I sounded really weird when I spoke French that day. Guess the teacher already knows my capability, so at least she didn't mark me low.. :p
Besides, I helped out (though in a very low %) my brother doing the wedding Invitation of our cousin. Yes, we did it all manually, except the printing. We bought the papers on our own and stick it together etc, all on our own :) They're about 280 invitations to make ^^. Unfortunately, my cousins (who are supposed to help out as it's their sis' wedding) are kinda busy with their stuff, too), so most of the time my brother does it himself.
The week ended nicely with me joining the Legion of Mary team to pray in 'Goa Maria' in KM45. Although not many youths there, but thank God I still have one friend around my age coming along, so at least I wasn't that lonely. :P
Here are some pictures on that...
The Front door of the Church..
This is what's on the floor..
Inside the church, it looks more like the church in Kuching.. It has the North, South, East and West..
Gua Maria...
Moreover, I get to know Mother Mary better now after joining the Legion of Mary. Mary is indeed really special. and I get to know more people in the church, too. Praise be to God! ^^ I have some friends now. :P
Ohyea, it's been some time that I seldom post pictures.. hehe Anyway, here's my first and new real guitar! I finally got myself a new guitar on my bday. YAMAHA C40. It's not something special for a Professional Guitarist though, but it's really nice for people like me, Beginner ^^,
Additional.. I made Fish and Chips on last Sunday :)

Inner Healing Retreat
I attended a Retreat held by SIC - St. Ignatius Church, Malaysia. It was held in Villa Dominic, Genting for 4 Days 3 Nights.
As it was also mentioned by the Speaker, - Jude Antoine that we might not know why we were there, but certainly, God has something planned for each of us.
I totally too, was wondering "Why am I actually here, despite of the many of the uncles and aunties who are in this camp, instead of the young ones.." There were just few of the youths and mostly were from Lifeline. :P Thank God I still had them with me there. haha.
Anyway, things started when Jude brought us into our past memories, even when we were in the womb. It was so much related to Psychology though (as you may wonder why it's called "Inner Healing Retreat").
Moving forwards, it brought me to the things which I never realised before that it was somehow the cause of why is it like this why is it like that in the present (now). I did cry (quite) a lot during the sessions, something that I was also surprised about. I am really sensitive, that I know, that even during P&W songs I sometimes do cry. But this one was just during sessions - talk with a soft background music..- it was basically the healing sessions anyway. =D
From there on, I realised about certain things and I felt I was healed. I keep telling myself not to be tempted again to get angry. Instead, I just take it easy, and let it go..
There were 3 things discussed also,
1. Unforgiveness;
I thought I've forgotten the persons who hurt me and even me who has hurt someone. But still, I cried again.. So I thought that was because the healing was taking place. Before that, Jude also asked us to look for stones, the no. of stones is determined by the no. of people who wronged us.
2. Shame;
Something that's always in my mind since I was a kid, due to the 'word' that's always said to me. As Jude said "Word of mouth has the most powerful effect on a person". I can't agree more with Jude. I hated it whenever they said that to me. But by the God's power and Love, I'll try my best to instead of getting hurt, just TAKE it Easy. Just offer SMiles to them. Let it GO. I love the way I am.
3. Fear
I am afraid of my future, honestly. Although I've heard a lot about the plans that God has for us, but still, if I don't try my best to fulfill His plan, will I ever achieve what is best for me? Not to mention, money is also a concern for me. I haven't done a real job since I graduated last year. Working for a good company also requires so much, that at least, I have a real working experience before, if not, your value is down by 1 point. :(
Nevertheless, I'll always pray for that. You too, for yours, will you? :)
Anyway,
My point of sharing this little thing about the Retreat is for us to discern and have faith in God.
And you know what? So far, I've managed my emotions well ever since I came back from the Retreat. I Let It Go and not tempted to get that useless anger. Praise God! ^^,
"Blessed is anyone who endures temptation. Such a one has stood the test and will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him."
- James 1:12-
