i would consider myself a superwoman if not for my aching body n fatigue! but i'm glad the missions conf is over! phew! i m actually quite amazed at how crazy these past week weeks have been... n how i was riding it. sometimes i can almost feel the exhilaration of adrenaline rush. but well, shant attempt such feats too much.

(BTW, i think my pastors are supermen! it's been a very tiring week for them cos of the wake n prep for some big conference etc. way to go pastors! praying for you! haha... as if they read my blog. well... u never noe... lol)

took 2 days leave to settle missions conference but much of the 1st day was taken at TH's deathbed n family after he is gone. and the 2 days were such a mad rush, both emotionally n physically tiring. (was surprised dat after sharing wif my team, a colleague can pray thanking God for a refreshing break! i looked up in surprise with a "huh? where did that come fr?" look. my other colleagues try to stiffle a laugh.) by sat when the youth track of missions conference started, my whole body ached n i was so so tired! but after a good rest on sat night, woke up today feeling fresh n ready to take on the new day - missions conf day!

today, alot of things went wrong. at the children's track, d laptop, projector failed. but later we managed to get it tog n the prog wen well. was so tiring. sweat as if i ran 5k! log s was a crazy thing. DLee shouldnt gotten a group of guys 2 run instead of juz one person. not easy putting this conf tog but it was worth it. the number of pp going for the workshops was up. glad we tried to put it on sun. n even the pledging was up for the chinese side. let's hope next week ours will be too.

heart sank last night wen i got an email saying that payday will be pushed back 1 day due to new acc syst. u have no idea how much i was looking forward to this particular payday! n then a short but not helpful memo saying that sept's payday will be affected as well... they never say when or wat... sigh... hope deferred makes the heart sick! was juz recalling after vision tea wen SE commented that money is "sheng wai wu" n SW n i juz almost flipped n say "wat?" haha... it's not dat we r money minded... but really...we are really living on "daily bread".

some company's sale tactics are really deplorable! use guilt/embarrassment/insult to sell. dun they have any morals? why take the moral low road? but sad to say, such antics do work on gullible, weak-conscience ones who bear the slime n condescension n willingly fork out hundreds n thousands. sigh... can i appeal to your better sense? dun give in to such unethical sales n marketing antics. u do deserve better treatment. dun pay them to further insult u.

"wat is the right thing to do?" (Yeep 2 hui on drums vs tutoring 4 PSLE)
hmm... gd question. need to learn to ask that more often.
