Though there were some months when I faced with sickness and my body resistance was down. Thanks to our good GOD that I picked up quite fast and nothing serious happen to me.
I know that I didn't improve much in Eden Centre as I don't have ideas on how to imporve on my work. But thanks to Berite, Madelene and Ah Kok for giving me the change to improved myself and learned new things in seling handicaft things. Dispite I knew I have problem in caculation and handling money yet I still on taken this challenge. I know it would be difficult, but I know in time to come I will be able to handle all the handicaft things. If someone would have given you the oppotunity, you must grabbed hold of it. It's a golden oppotunitely!
In the middle of June, John(my cousin) got married. My whole family attended his wedding service in the church of Our Lady of Sorrow. At lunch time, we adjourned to their house for tea ceremony and lunch. We attended his dinner reception at Gurney Hotel until midnight. The band/singers who played and sing good and lively songs the whole night that we didn't want to leave to place until it ended.
We have few visitor in our house in month of May, Sept, Oct and Nov 05.
Felicty and Mark (my cousin from Australia) came to Penang for their honeymoon in May 05. They spend more than 2 week here and they stayed in a hotel, but they come down everyday as they wanted to visit places. My family and relatives took them around to where they wanted to visit.
Aunty Elsie spent time with us for a week. It was great to see again since her last visit iin 2003. Despite she has gone thru many sickness and operations, yet she is still as strong and health as the last time.
In Oct, dad's old friend Uncle Choong and family came out for 3 days 2 nights. We spent time with them at Sri Sayang Apartment. Unfortunately, it was raining the whole time when they around. We couldn't take them out anywhere except the first night when we took them to the nearby coffee house for dinner. When we were about to finish our dinner, the rain poured so heavily. We took shelter under the CD shop until the rain stopped. Luckily we could go out the next day to Parkroyal Hotel and we took a walk to the next door Golden Sand Hotel. Tina, uncle Choong daughter was a great company to me during our stay there. It was fun having her around.
In middle of Nov, Aunty Nijole and Timothy came out for holiday for more than 10 days. Aunty Nijole stayed with us while Timothy stayed with uncle Hock. All the relatives took turns to them out. I surely believe they had a great time.
In early Dec 05, I went for an interview Gleaneagle Hospital. I asked a friend of mine who is working there whether there were any job vancancy. She didn't reply me so forgot about whole thing until another friend (Anne Choon) suddenly called me by surprise one morning. She told me there was an interview for telephonist job and asked me to go for it. I went, but it was a short interview. After they saw I wrote things quite slow, they asked me to come for a day try out. A week later, I asked Anne C. to make an appointment with them. Believe it on not, on that very day they inteviewed me they already intended not to take me in but yet they lead me to falsed hope. How I knew it, it was Anne C. who asked them to called me. Later she shared the whole story with me. I wasn't disappoited as I knew it wasn't GOD's will for me to work there.
In Dec 05, our Centre had a Christmas Carolling Project. We went to about 20 places eg: shopping malls, hotels and old forks home. we sang 7 to 8 songs or more in one place. Though it was really tiring, but I enjoyed myself as I have never been to some of the places before like few hotels.
I almost forgot the most important thing which is I'm learning to walk now with a walker. With God's help and grace that I will not give up or discourage when things get tough. It's really an efford to take a step forword.
I'm really happy in what I have achived in 2005. It was a good year for me. I really hope in this year 2006 will be a better year for me. I don't expect too much good things to happen. I have to take one day at the time. I pray that GOD will continue be by my side leading me on as what HE wants me to.
Happy 2006 to all who read my blog. May God bless you wherever you may be.
