2014 overview

It is 2015.

2014 was a mysterious year with dissapearing of plane (MH370), plane shot down at Ukraine (MH17), and plane crashed into java sea (QZ8501).

Personally, 2014 was a roller coaster year again. Quite similar with year 2012.

My grandfather was very sick. I found a good doctor for him. He recovered fast under much caring of family and from the medicines. I have to mention Tan Kok Sui Clinic (Kota Kinabalu) who is good in curing old age illness and cheap. It is very hard to find a good and patient doctor nowadays. Occasionally bring my grandpa for breakfast.

Birthday and company annual coincides in 2014. Experienced excited atmosphere due to fire breaking out near our hotel in Tawau. Was the emcee during annual dinner, and had great time talking and joking with the microphone. Received a teddy bear as present and get rice cooker for lucky draw. Loving it.

Tried a different investment this year. 

Chances keep coming without me asking. It is like elevator opening the door the moment you step in front of it. Even when i pressed close, it still open.

I had decided to sit there and gave up trying, then the call. Then i said No. Then i cried. Then i call. I waited waited for a month before i get a yes. This was around May-June.

Emotional and not easy to start a change. Learned a new skill - taichi. Soft is the best move to counter a hard attack. Speaking of taichi, drove over an safety island on my way to taichi less and my car survived it.

Then moved back in Aug. A big change........................... Then..... Then........

I become my best friend's bridesmaid, a last minute bridesmaid. I removed a mole. 

I am still cute :)

Talk for the memory

Nice experience of life May slips out of the memory unnoticed when we stop talking about it. I always wonder why people can have such good memories at old age. They can even remember every details of the event from name of each person, clothing and time. It is because they talked about it very frequently... I mean always talk about it like new year stories.

 Talking is not my favorite hobby. All my memories stucked in my mind and slips away very fast. It is a bad bad bad bad sign.......

That night when I started to talk about backpacking experience in 2011. All memory is coming to me now.  Sound like Celine Dion song. I just cannot stop talking in my mind. Only in my mind because the topic changed too fast and no room for me to finish my talking.

Master the art of talking and print your memories at the back of your mind :)

Face it now

Sometimes i will procrastinate about something because i am too scare to face the matter. The thought of perform such high level task is so scary that make me tend to avoid or run away. When i face it, it is actually not that hard and it is much simpler than i thought. Feeling of relieved is so overwhelming after facing it. I realised it is only me who makes it complicated.

Next time when i want to run away, i will face it because it is only me who thinks too much.

Email

Email becomes big chunk of my work now. It feels like i am back to early 2000. Back to the days when email was very popular because i just started to learn how to online. When the sound of modem 'diiii duuuu dooo diiii duuuu' excites me because the length of each tone plays great role in getting connection. Checking emails and forward chain mails becomes lifw routine. Nowadays no one ever get chain mail anymore. The one i miss is the beautiful and funny animated birthday card. 

Now email is not that fun. Email means have work to do. Bombard by emails can be stressful. Better just hire someone to guard the emails. Emails can be very distracting

and decrease level of effectiveness.

Life goes on in real life and virtual life.
