It’s been one month since my last blog entry and five days till I reach my fifth month at the job. At the moment, it seems I’m failing to uphold my oath of blogging about important life events – the busy-ness at work really takes time away. Still, let’s try be stubborn.
So far, I gotta say I’m enjoying my job. Almost living a dream – seem myself wanting to work here for too long. Hopefully, I won’t make a mess out of the ministry while I’m here. My work’s pretty much admin, but that’s what I like. Meeting people and going around has been quite a regular thing for me as well.. all adding to the fun working for The Boys’ Brigade, though I am very concerned with my organisations direction, especially the whole gender crisis. My main job focus is on Training and Extensions, the latter being something I’ve been itching to jump on since uni. If all goes well, we might be seeing 8 new BB Companies popping up in Peninsula Malaysia alone. BB Malaysia has been growing at a rate of 1 Company per year prior to this. Let’s hope at least 5 Companies will be successful by the end of the year. So yep, been enjoying the job. My personal life is another story. Too many complications occurred since I got back. Too many circles to reconnect. Too many friends to keep up with and unfortunately I’m sadden to see once solid friendships turn sour over things that isn’t directly related to them. But I guess that’s life. With work, life does move onto the fast lane. If anyone though student life is fast with comments like “Wah, so fast one semester/year finish already!” – they are in for a shocker when they start work.
In a manual car, when you drive downhill the car tends to go fast even before you can hit the accelerator as a means of control. I guess life feels like that for me now. But I can’t hit the brakes now. Hopefully, I won’t run into trouble and will be able to navigate around obstacles while moving fast.. though realistically if I keep it up.. I’ll eventually crash. I can only rely on God to guide us through with His guiding hands.
