Magnificent mum's green-fingers!

While waiting for my beloved mum yesterday, from inside my car, I managed to capture this wonderful picture from my phone! How beautiful and magnificent shot of this flower with natural water-drops. ThankGod for me to be this lucky to witness this amazing creation..

Happy Monday!!!

Finally..

Completed the presentation and the report, ThankGod!! I am so glad for with that, I shall be graduating soon! Best of all, time is all with me.. Yay!!! Should be able to pursue my passion now and completing my mini-projects.

One of my masterpieces when I started to venture to the art of beading:

The Flower Beads

TGIF!!

After a while..

ThankGod for the time in the world that I'm having now! Though still having lots of works to be done, assignments to be completed, books to be read, but as for now, having the so-called 'free time' in the office now, I choose to blog! Perhaps I've forgotten that the choice is in my hands, that I decide what's next. Need to re-visit the Psychology thingy then.

Well, this is to list out the 'IMPORTANT' tasks that waiting for my very own 'consideration' to prioritize:

1. Weekly Reflection Report No. 2 (Submitted the No 1 Report) 

Okay, it's for my Global Business Issues class. We were asked to write a Reflection Report on what have been discussed during previous class. Enrolling to this class is a very good experience, of course for having a very knowledgeable Professor! (In case you are reading this Prof, I must say I like the way you share your knowledge and experiences.. This is truly an appraisal, without any other hidden agenda! :) ). And having until this Friday to complete this.

2. Applied Business Research (ABR)

As the final semester is approaching, my time now I could say, fully occupied with this research. Journals are to be read, findings to be written, meetings and discussions to be held, and doing the thinking! Anyway, feeling glad working with the Professor who pleasingly shared his wide knowledge in Marketing particularly. 

3. Writing a Position Paper

This is another writing task on Globalization (of course for the Global Business Issues class), given by the same Professor. For this Position Paper, I got the opportunity of reading on the Global issues that I seldom read! For the sake of writing this paper and getting ready for the class, bought a Bloomberg Businessweek (for the first time!). What caught my attention on this issue is the Facebook $96 Billion Hack (haven't read it though). I must say, this class has given me impacts that I have never thought of before, which is a good thing for sure. Gratitude is all what I can express. 

4. Beading Project

It's my another passion besides baking! Learned many techniques already after few classes but so far didn't really manage to get my 'Shaking' hands fully working with the beads. Also learned the art of beading through online tutorials and YouTube, recognizing that learning is always no limit and no boundaries. It's just own self is the limit, only when you set it. It is that own self will give thousands and millions of reasons and rebuttals. 

5. Other mini-projects

Having few mini projects to be completed soon, though no deadlines but completing each of them will give self satisfaction. And I believe, these mini projects, upon completion will complete the whole magnificent puzzle of my life! It's just a matter of time will determine the sooner or later, these puzzles will give a complete book that is full of unforgettable colorful journeys. 

So as for today, blogging is the second task that I did while I was beading at first. After this, thinking of reading the best-seller book of 'The World is CURVED'. Whatever it is, expecting to have a wonderful experience by reading this book.

Happy Monday!!

Will write again soon.  

The busy passage

Hi Blog,

Sorry for not posting. Was busy with works, studies, life and so on. Hours seem to flow just like a river. There were days with sadness, but the other side of it was the precious moments to be cherished and remembered. And I feel grateful for the bitterness and the sweetness that play as melodies in the songs of life..

Happy Thursday..

Busy weekdays, busy weekends!!

Pity to my blog, didn't really have much time to update it. I was busy with my studies, completing few assignments while I was loaded with work piles during daytime! Weekends seem no more a good blessing time for me to relax and enjoy the beautiful days. Anyway, the weather is pretty unfriendly at the moment. Everybody is complaining how hot it is nowadays..

This week is another busy weekend as my office moved to a new location. We received a short notice to vacate our previous office just three days from the exact moving out date, and of course everything was not in proper order in my view. ThankGod, managed to unpacked few boxes this afternoon in my new workplace and I just have another one more to go. Phewww!!

I got few engagement and wedding invitations for the past few weeks and only last Saturday, I managed to attend a friend's wedding ceremony. I love to attend engagement/wedding ceremonies as I got to meet my old friends and so the new ones. And as far as I could remember, I would attend to all invitations that I'd received. Unintentionally I missed an old friend's wedding ceremony this morning. Owh I feel bad about it when I saw an update on a friend's friend update on FB. I think I need to write him an apology note for not coming. Sorry dear friend..

Anyway, hope everyone is doing fine and will be catching up with all of the fantastic bloggers soon! Thank you for your companionship!!!

Mellow Yellow Monday #56

A row of 19th century Chinese shophouses, in the oldest street of Kuching, Sarawak.

It is still a holiday here in conjunction with the celebration of Lunar New Year. This year, it falls on February 14th, welcoming the vividly lucky, lively and engaging Golden Tiger Year. I would love to post something about the tiger, but it seems that I only have more red pictures in my picture galleries. Perhaps it will be perfect for Ruby Tuesday tomorrow. :)

I hope you'll have a wonderful Monday!!

Journey to a Life Prosperity

Prosperity is not an abundance of things, it is a state of mind. Mind is the actual instrument for poverty or prosperity, in which one regard the real meaning of 'abundance'. For many, the real abundance is in the hope of being rich or having a loaded bank account. And money is not the only kind of abundance! There is an abundance of opportunity, love, friendships, freedom, and the list goes on; but the most important thing is: You decide your journey to a life of prosperity.

Plant Good Thoughts

'Regard your thoughts as seeds, no different from the tiny seed of a carrot, or an acorn from an oak tree. When the gardener plants a seed, the first duty is accomplished. The second duty is to take care of the seed by watering it and ensuring that what needs to happen under the surface can happen. You don't dig up a seed on a daily basis to see if it's grown. You trust that it will. You know this because humans have been planting simple seeds for thousands of years, and most of them sprout under the right conditions.'
