"If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing."

Life is going to get busy from now on. I am about to accelerate. Not in a hurry, just in a motivation to get real and get going.

Juggling with work, social entrepreneurship project, community service and other commitments isn't going to be easy. At all. But I will move on with faith.
Family and friends are still my priority.
I am people-oriented, after all.

All for His glory,
Jo
Just flew back to Singapore from Penang and I am highly curious why I even have the energy to type...now. Nevermind about that.

Anyway, a four day trip was fairly enjoyable! The food, the culture and the accommodation. Very nice, very nice. Just the weather perhaps, is a little difficult for us to appreciate.

Thought I should come up with a list of food I tasted in Penang, a city frequently praised for its delicious delicacies. I pretty much tried all the local famous dishes that are a MUST TRY.

Penang Laksa
Asam Laksa
Char Kuay Teow
Nasi Bryani Ayam
Wan Ton Mee
Satay
Grilled Fish
Chendol
Ice Ai Yu
Fried Pancake
Chee Cheong Fan
Curry Mee
Rojak
Fresh Coconut

Nothing special? Well, common names but different tastes.
If you haven't, visit Penang one day!

Keeping a right attitude and a straight posture. That's the way.

I don't know if what I am doing with my life now is good. Or not so good.
My friends think it is cool to have a life like mine. To get to somewhat live purposefully and meaningfully.
On the other hand, my parents think I'm spending too much time with the hell lot of activities that I have. Things that are not just what is written in my schedular but what is always spontaneously sprung forth.
I do enjoy them. Alot.
Of course, I try to make it a habit to strike a healthy balance between the core few that matter most to me.
I want to earn money soon again. With the multiplying goals that I have, I need the finances.

Stay cool friends. You will get into serious mess sometimes. Falling into a mud hole or getting caught in the rain. But your best friends will tell you when your face is dirty and they will gladly share with you their brolly. No need to get so tensed up. You are already blessed.

I like that beautiful smile of yours

Besides the usual "LOL"s that I receive on chats, text messages and notes, and because I find "Hahaha"s more effective, I prefer to change "LOL" to Live Out Loud. I think it will remind us somehow or rather, the trend we are setting for ourselves.

Nevertheless, I appreciate my friends who are always laughing and filled with such sheer joy! Thank you for being so expressive.

LOL,
Jo.

Resting is doing something. Or so it seems.

Ok, but when you are doing so many things, REST is important too.

I really understand now.
