wheeeeeeee!! so happy.
1. got a part time job. kinda. helping prof K with her research thing...how wonderful! get to talk to CEOs and stuff (provided tt i get access to them first of coz..tt'll be e challenging part)
2. my dad's op was a success and super fast. just tt now i'll have to warm up e food for him since his eye cannot come into contact with smoke and my family has a general distrust of microwaves..LOL.
3. saw this very happy receptionist...at 6.15am he starts bustling ard e hospital eye centre reception...he greets everyone who comes in with a big smile and waves and directs everyone to take a seat...when he rains, he grabs e mop and happily mops up e mess without his grin even wavering and he helps his colleagues who have just arrived put their umbrellas into those long transparent bags...=). made me realise something. and i commented to my mom...no one is indispensible...but there are ppl whose absences can be felt by they voids they leave behind. coz when e happy receptionist went away for awhile..e whole place seemed totally different. really admire him for his ability to love his job so much. reminds me of how i am when i ask for donations...=D. but of coz i can't make a living asking ppl for donations unless e donations are for myself. but choy! dun want to be reduced to tt state. dun think i'll be happy asking for donations for myself.
4. being on this topic...i have settled my charity contacting le..=D. one to-do list item down. i settled my 3000 packs of potato chips too. yea! fruitful day. and i took on a new job..very meaningful. cw will be releasing his album and he wants to adopt a charity..he has adopted a US one for his US sales and another one for dunno which ctry le..but he lacks a Sg one..so i promised to do e liaison for him...=D. putting my mkting and PR skills to use for a gd cause. which is y i love charity stuff..knowing how many ppl u can benefit with a single call, a single visit, a single signature...=D. best MOU i can ever type is one for e benefit of a charity.
5. another realization...there is a similarity betwn true love and caring leadership. LOL. realised tt from e chn 8 drama which i watched today. this guy moved dustbins and benches out of e way of this gal whom he loved coz she became blind..but he din tell her tt he was doing it all along...he said tt he wldn't be able to make it to fetch her home only to clear the path for her on e sly such that she may grow in confidence. perhaps in love, you simply want to improve someone's life w/o letting tt person noe. in leadership...perhaps u wld clear obstacles for ur followers such that their course may be smooth. when you do arrive at ur destination thinking tt it was surprisingly easy and tt u somehow managed it all by urself...look ard u, feel e ppl ard u..and u may just realise tt someone has been clearing e route for u all along..
