Two down, two more to go!

Well, well, well, had my second paper today - Corporate and Business Law. Verdict? So you want me to give an optimistic opinion or a down right honest answer? Optimistic answer - I think I have got a 50, 50 chance of passing. A down right honest answer - I had a tough time with the question paper, and I think I might fail it.

I did attempt all the questions but, I don't really know if what I threw in for answers were relevant to helping me get marks. The passing mark 50 percent but even at times like this 50 marks can be a huge pain to achieve. Anyway, the paper is done with and that's all I have to say about it. Focus is on tomorrow's tax paper.

Just a short prayer:
"Father God, thank You for holding my hand keeping me calm throughout the paper even though it was potentially a disaster. Somehow, You kept me focused on the paper and just let me write something on the answer script. Tomorrow is another paper for me, and I hope to do it well as the firm is paying it for me. Like before, I am going to rely on You completely and wholly. I am weak and I am nothing without the power of Your grace. Heavenly Father, keep me cool and collected, and let You lead me to victory against tomorrow's paper! In Jesus name, Amen".

All it takes is a little encouragement

"A Life at Work" by Thomas Moore is currently the book I am reading. I have reached about half way so far and it has really given me a lot of in sight about my destiny or at least pointers to get me on my way to figure out what my life work is (i.e. your ideal work, work that fulfills you from the inside, food-for-the-soul kind of work). It's still a work in progress thing for me; a long way from reaching the full discovery point (if I ever reach it). Your life work can be as simple as helping old folks in need in a nursing home to something as simple as being a life guard. Simplest of work can be the most rewarding to a person's hear that's deep down. Of course, there's no denying that it is different for everyone. But sometimes, if not all the time, all it takes is a little encouragement from the people around you. Sometimes it is as simple as, "a job well done chump!" or "way to go bud!" or "you hit the home run mate!" or even

one foot in the past, another in the future........ what about the present?

All of us go through a cycle, what we commonly call - the past, present and the future. It can probably be summed up by this simple phrase: " we come from the past to be in the present and look forward to the future ". Now, what I want you to do is take a step back, or just give your mind a minute or two to digest the above mentioned phrase. Ask yourself if it applies to you. Really ask yourself; and I mean REALLY ask yourself in the most honest of manner, whether it really applies to you. You may find it difficult to arrive at a 'yes' and even if you do, you probably find yourself in a paralysis state of mind trying to justify the 'yes'. If you really ponder about it, you are likely to find that most of us would find this phrase more relevant instead: " we come from the past and look forward to the future " You will find many of us either hang on to the past or look far too forward into the future, or likely for some to even be dwelling too much in

Quick update.........

Having graduated last year in August and taking a break in Australia visiting my brother for a month, I really felt good about everything. Things just got better after that, having landed a job at Ernst & Young! :) Aaaaaahhhhh.... how fast time actually goes by! Passing the 10th of January 2007, I have already been working for 3 months. The feeling of getting older and learning new things everyday at work brings about a feeling of satisfication. Although, work is generally tough and tedious (what do you expect in the auditing line?). I must admit though, when I fast started off I did feel demotivated and some what unhappy with the job having to go back home at 3am and back to work by 8am the next day. I did think about quitting at that time........ :( However, a miracle happened to me! That miracle brought along a girl named Vern Cheng. Without her support, I would have struggled a lot more. After work, just seeing her brings about a feeling of happiness and a feeling of being cont
