this few weeks have been like a roller coaster ride. many things happened which made me realise that i need to do more to improve myself as a person.

first up, my first ever experience at batu caves for thaipusam. it was really a last-minute decision to carry the milk pot. i had to get a yellow punjabi suit and the pot which i bought in klang. on the day itself, we woke up at about 12 something a.m. and reached there at about 2 a.m. then we had to go to the river to get the blessing of the priests and the starting of the milk pot journey. i was actually quite terrified because before my turn, i saw some of them who took the milk pot was actually possessed. i thought it would also happen to me once i carry it. i almost wanted to quit but decided that since i've already bought all the stuff, i might as well just do it. thank god i wasn't possessed like them :) so we walked from the river to the 200 over steps and up the cave and then giving the pot to the priest to pour it over the statue of the god. all the way up to the cave, i was saying all my prayers and hopes and dreams. all in all, it was a great experience for me and i vow to go there every year.

just got to know that my boss' husband had cancer of the nose. poor thing.... he actually cried yesterday when someone called to ask about him. i know what it's like to go through it. so these few days, they've been in and out the office and i just dont wanna complain much.

on a lighter note, i passed my cfm paper!!! yay.... now, i can officially say i have 2 degrees and i do not need to sit for anymore exams.... i only need to work towards getting the necessary work experience and then i can apply for my license as a chartered secretary. however, i still want to work and build my career and life either in australia or new zealand. i'm still looking for ways to apply to work overseas. with my ciput salary here in malaysia, i cant progress and improve so i need to get away from here...
