Revival

2007 is a special year that marks a transition in life.

this 6-month life at TDC has been challenging, from the sales presentation and exhibitors recruitment, to the launch of HKOF, it can be a memoir in life like what my batchmate said. frustration came when it seems hard to live up to magr's expectation and when i seemed messing up the job delegations to the proj team. but the sense of fulfillment is strong when you witness how the visitors and exhibitors mingle to do business and you know you are really helping the SMEs to flourish in some ways. right it is the cosmopolitan and dynamic environment that excites me.  

now that WBHK is coming in less than a month's time, it's a lie if i tell i hv no fright abt it, given the many responsibilities and uncertainties. gotta brush up the VIP tour and coordinate better with the fashion teams. the skeleton is already there and its glamourous and mktg elements can be visualised now. i am looking forward to launching it and... hv to be more confident!

2008 is just a few days away. need some rest to refresh the mind and then hv full gear in the new year!      

gdbye the cocktail of medicine

Now: Yan is 100% recovered!

when my blood pressure dropped to the two digits on day zero and i nearly risked myself being hospitalized.. i realized how awful i had been in taking care of myself... i often stayed in hall in this very last semester and now i feel so guilty to mum who saw me moving bac home with this fragility. i brought her a lot of interrupted sleep.. when i coughed in the midnights, when she came and checked if my fever went down n if my quilt had slipped.. the dizziness, the pain and the vulnerability were terribly haunting n they have warned me that i should never let this happen twice in life.. dad n nicole are right. sometimes it's the will that sustains the working mood n productivity even though health is already in the decline. when work is done and the body relaxes, the volcano would erupt..   

alrite, stay home for one more day and then..

 its' my real SUMMER!   

from dusk to dawn

i see the grace of the rising sun

glowing and mounting  

gleaming on the path

that leads to my tulip garden  

i hid my torch and thanked it to be with me   

walking every step in the dimly lit odyssey  

its beam floated and sank  

but the power sustained 

i rummaged around in my backpack 

discarded the stones and then dressed in my new outfit

getting ready to farm

to farm on my dreamland

there's a piece of fertile soil and

tulips have already been seeded

the farmer knows full bloom will only come along with diligence

plough it with strengths 

water it with kindness

and then time will tell the rest

------

give thanks

i do.

random pics. scattered thoughts.

when fear is manifest, i wish i could overcome.

please let reflections mallow me

let friendship kindle me

let conscience shepherd me

let perseverance flourish me

we'll be blessed.

when i ask myself what the can-do attitude means to me, i just hv flashbacks of experiences when i truly feel like living at the moment

n know what the plausible outcomes would be. i am getting quite puzzled at the current stage, but give me some more time n i know i will figure out the answers
