Who moved my Cheese?

This book has gotten me thinking again. In a good way, of course. The small phrases in there caught hold of certain past memories of mine. And my mind goes,"What if I never….", "What will happen if I stayed…","If I got up and stand firm, would the…", etc… the word "IF" just goes on and on until I finished the book (less than an hour if you guys are wondering). While reading the book, I came to realise that, I "know" the characters in the book very well! It somehow relates the characters to certain people I know and of course myself too. 

Some people are just as stubbon as one of the mentioned character, always dislike changes, believe in own’s perception too much, do not like to leave their comfort zone and allowing fear to cloud their mind and hold them back. And of course not forgetting, they do not like to see the truth, always trying to imagine things are going against them, kept telling themselves that everything will be fine again just like before, strongly believes in their own imagination and resist changes even though they know that changes are good for them. Strange isn’t it? I thought so too.

But some people are totally the opposite of what were mention above! Wow wow wow! This book really motivates me and I think it had just brought me to the door of next level in life!

Starting Afresh with a Clear State of Mind But with a Contridicting Heart… (People with weak mind, please stop here! As per advice from Dr. F.J.)

A new job, new boss, new colleagues, new environment, new roles and stepping up the next level in life. Everything seems so new but scary as I have no idea what’s coming up next. But one thing I know for sure, is that, I do not have to suffer "mental torture", carrying a heavy heart and fearing mind to work everyday.

New things aside, I am actually wondering how is Big Nose. The things he said and did to me was intolerable BUT as the person I am, I had to forgive him. Whatever it is, he is the one who taught me a lot about life, humans and of course, myself. In another words, he changed me without myself realising it.

It was a nasty experience but then again, it was a good nasty one. Many people said, he well deserved whatever he is getting now. But I see it as, I wish him well. No matter what, he will still be my best nasty mentor. I know he hates me for leaving him in lurch at the time when he needed me most, but he have forgotten that sometimes, enough is enough. Contridicting? Yes, it is. A nice man but a nasty mind. Contridicting? Yes, it is. Someone said," Life is actually very simple and pleasant but human beings just can’t help complicating it and forgot to take in mind about the consequences which they have to carry for life. " Strange? Yes, it is.

Mr. R and my mom told me that they see a change in me after I left that "place". I am smiling from the bottom of my heart, once again. I am Joey again. The Joey who likes to be silly and smiley. I am back on line people!!! Watch out!!! hee~ Dsc00179

It has been a long time since I last updated my blog! Whew.. I was seriously BUSY! Too many things had happen since my last blog.

1) I QUIT my job (Big news to those who loves me!)

2) My grandmother passed away (Don’t be sorry, it is just "pnp" of life and I have gotten over it. Life still have to go on)

3) I found a new interesting job (Big news too, to those who loves me extra!)

4) Went through a hard time resigning (Seriously, those people are sick and unreasonable!)

5) Busy studying for my exams and unexpectedly I passed! (Quick! Congratulate me!)

6) Busy with my new job. Trying to cope almost everything which was hand to me. Busy but I love the way it goes!

7) Trying to ease the pain of certain people but I think I failed. Yes, once again I am back to being the nosey posey me!

8) Trying to get back my shape which I once had many years ago (I think I am getting seriously lazy! Where has all my motivation gone to I wonder!)

Everything seems to be falling apart at one time and falling back into places at another. And through all these, I learnt not to endure when I don’t have to and stick to the decisions that I have made. Some people just love seeing me crashed but then again, I am Faith Joey, nothing brings me down.

The new job? Woah! Totally cool! It enables me to grow with the job. First day at work, it was all tough but worthwhile. Sometimes after work I would say to myself, this job is just so me! ha~! It is a very customer-oriented kind of industry. It matches requirements to what customers’ need and not much of what they want. And my working environment? Woahhhh! They are a combination of strong-willed, motivated, "think-out-of-the-box", systematic, cheerful and gorgeous married/single women! They sound too good to be true? Well, they are real so eat your hearts out guys! They are always tired but very happy on what they had achieved at the end of the day. I never knew that I could work well with women but this company proves me wrong. Seeing how they work, makes me even much more determine to prove to myself that my work-ability is way beyond my imagination!
