i didnt see it coming. it was due to recent event - but an opportunity nonetheless. but whatever circumstances that is - i m thankful (for the opportunity NOT the circumstances).
well.. my boss came into my room today and offered me an offer i couldnt refuse - which of course i didnt. a position starting with the letter "P and ending with a letter "R". it is salaried not by profit sharing tho. which i totally 100% agreeing to. and it came with an (ahem!!!) increase in the incoming monthly $.
so - yes.. i am happy. so happy that i did my happy dance (in my head) the minute my boss walked out of my room.
:)
of course - i havent sign the dotted lines yet. so nothing conclusive yet. though i am now (and will keep on doing it) sending good thoughts to the world - hoping, wishing and praying - he wont change his mind in these 2-3 weeks or so. if he doesnt, this will take effect January 2009.
and what a way to start the new year.
in any event even if it turn the other way round at the end of the day - im still grateful enuf for the thought. the simplest act that brought smile to my face on this very day. errr... yesterday.

and weird as it sounds, this brought me back to that first time when i first realized it was ok to dream big no matter how insignificant and how helpless i was (at least that was what i felt).
lets call him christian lacroix. it was during spm and he just cant stand me being content with ONLY passing grade - he told me, "reach for the star. at least when u fall - u'll fall on the moon." - and somehow, it was that quote that guide me through every impossible dream.
i have not reached a single star yet.
but this moon is ok too. for now.
words can change life. and i dont think mr lacroix knew my mindset somehow changed that day. over the years - of course there were more words of wisdom & encouragement from family & friends.
but like first love,
that first wisdom will always be remembered.
and if i never say it before,
i thank you mr lacroix.
