I'm blessed!

 

WeEee~! I'm feeling so blessed these few days! heh..

Just now, while I walking to the mosque for my friday prayers, I saw a motorbike which suddenly stopped near a junction and I was wondering why. Then suddenly the rider alighted from his bike, took an extra helmet from the utility box and waved to me and offered me a ride to the mosque. Naturally, I was stunned at first! But after a few seconds, I walked towards him and accepted his invitation. So there I was, riding on a stranger's motorbike, saving precious minutes and energy, and at the same time enjoying that couple of minutes of the breeze!

Actually this is not the first time someone offered me a lift to the mosque. The last time was during Hari Raya. Anyway. this proved that there are still kind people out there. To that uncle just now, and all the kind people out there, all I can say is a big THANK YOU to you! I hope you will be blessed by God and kindness be returned to you in the near future =)

Oh, yesterday I saw this pretty girl at a traffic light while I was walking out of WCC towards Causeway Point. And we exchanged glances. Then later, after my breakfast, while walking towards the bus berth at the interchange, I saw her again! And guess what, we took the same bus! hehe.. I know there are plenty of pretty girls out there but there's something unique about her that I've never seen before. She's just... pretty! hahaaa.. (Hmm, nothing wrong in enjoying your surrounding once in a while right? =P)

Till here for now. Oh btw, I've cleared my ord shoot(re-test) a week ago! hehe.. Alhamdulilah! Now it's just a matter of waiting for ORD date! But then, I'm still not prepared to go back to studying just yet! How!?! ^_^

Reflections of life

 

Hmm, life has not been good to me recently. Certain things happened, while others which I expect them to happen, did not.

And I've been doing some thinking lately. I asked myself, in the 21+ years I've lived here in this world, what's the best achievement I've ever had. I'm sad to say, I wasn't able to answer that question. May be a simple question to some but not for me. And no, it's not because I've too many achievements but because I have none!

I realised I've been living a mediocre life up until now. I do not have any notable achievements that would make me, or those around me, proud of. My whole life have been average, and what I've achieved so far have been average too.

Some may say I'm clever, for the fact that I've managed to get into a Uni for my further studies. But to me, that's not really a great achievement. For me, I was just lucky. I was lucky that I got fairly good grades when I was in secondary school and poly that made me where I am now. If you were a friend of mine back then in school, you would know that I never really studied and I would get nervous when I'm doing my exams cos alot of stuffs were still not registered inside my head. So, studying hard and doing really well in studies is not really my forte. And that makes me wonder how I'm going to survive the tough uni life which I'm going to encounter soon.

I guess I'm just like the jack of all trades but master of none. Hmm...

Anyway, life at work have not been rosy too. I think when you're serving your NS, it's going to be either physically challenging or mentally challenging. For myself, it's more of the latter.

Sometimes, I just don't understand what those people want. And they make it as if we have owed them money or what. We are humans too, with feelings, okay! And most of the time it's not our fault that things happened(or did not)! But yet, you're blaming it on us!

Sigh, I can't wait for my NS to complete. Because the longer I stay, the more I felt like a slave..

Oh well, that's it for this negative post of mine. Till next time, ciao!

Demoralised

 

Oh great! What I feared most had just came true! I failed my ord test shoot today! sigh... I don't know what"s wrong - the gun, my aiming, my skill(or lack thereof) or it's just isn't my day!

When I was at the range, nostalgia filled into me, reminiscing all the good memories I had there when I was still a trainee, especially "that day"...

But sadly, I wasn't able to reproduce the same kind of outcome I did a year ago.. haiz

I'm so disappointed and somehow a disgrace...

---------------------------------------------------------

A couple of things today didn't go as I planned.. Though I'm demoralised, I'll hope tomorrow will be a better day for me..
