Hectic!
These whole week have been one of the more busiest week since I came to work more than half a year ago. Just so happened that my department is running on a very tight deadline to publish our backlogged quarterly magazine and preparing for our upcoming biannual Company Awards Nite.
Supposedly I have to come back and work on Saturday to offset the overwhelming work, but again it happens that every weekend I am preoccupied. Every person in my department have to come and work, besides me. Sometimes a little persuasion and good track records go a long way
Last weekend I was at Penang to celebrate convo with some of the dearest people in my life. Even as I drive to Penang, I can’t help but thinking bout the work. But nothing gonna stop me from having a good time. Work’s work. Play’s play k.
After getting off last weekend, I have to pull extra string to get off for this coming weekend. Pretending to stay during lunch time to do work when in reality i was just reading soccernet. Suprisingly it worked. My boss thought I was working my posterior off.
And so I will be joining Grace’s church for a short mission work in Gopeng. This will be one of the most ill-planned trip that I have been on (i’ve yet to meet any team member nor received any itinery nor know how much is the cost) but hey, mission work is full of suprises.
Truth be told, i’m kinda worn off after the excursion to Penang, just like my good brother. Every night i have to stay extra late to catch up with my work load. Even right now I wish I do not need to go to Gopeng. But I have seen how God opened up my weekend (my boss just let me off without much question – second week in a row!) and provided me with finance at the month that I’m broke (mum just gave me a couple of moolah. Ashamed to take it, but ego cant feed me or the car)
Tonight will be meeting up with Grace and the rest of the team members. Of all things we are doing children ministry. This is one of my least favourite (though I love kids…a lot). Sigh. I think I still have a couple of nerve available to be burst by the kids anyway, so roll on.
Not sure how my Kancil gonna bring four people up the hills of Gopeng. Not sure what to prepare for the kids at such a short notice. Not sure how my physical body can endure such gruelling endeavor. Not sure how my mental gonna cope with the workload coming Monday. But God is big. To quote John Mayer, He’s bigger than my body. He will pull me thru. Pray for me will ya?
