    Time Event

    When English cannot be understood
    I'm sitting here in my nice little corner, tucked away in the heart of Singapore.

    My test starts in 45min time, something which I have long decided to give a miss.

    My dinner awaits in a bowl, cooling off by the minute, resting on the dinner table.

    Phone call after phone call to a faraway land, where nothing seems to be understood.

    When mistakes are found, is sorry the hardest word to say?

    No. But it is the hardest word to stomach.

    Good news for a change
    My senior pastor always says that news are, more often than not, bad. You turn to the newspapers, the news stations, and all you hear is how the El Nino is wrecking the global weather, how Hurrican Ivan and his friends tore up the coast of America, how some experts are saying that the Chechen rebels are supported by Al Qaeda. But just as the Chinese believe in the balance of Yin and Yang, we can always turn to the bible for some good news. But I digress.

    It was so good to see 2 emails sitting in my Inbox. They were from the new ED, and the emails were announcements of 4 promotions - all of whom I feel is well-deserved. After the terrible months (if not years), they've finally gotten the breakthrough. Of course, I had first-hand news before the email came out about one of the promotions. Even the promotee was shocked by the news. But as I reassured her, she's promoted not for her own glory, but for God's. =)

    And after 13-hr in the office, I didn't get cab-sick like last night, coz I was zonked out in the backseat before we hit the PIE. Sitting on the dinner table is my big bowl of rice, complete with my fav pumpkin and stuff, nicely packed into a microwavable container.

    Such is the bliss that will take all the pain away.

    The love of a Father.
