Lying to Myself

Am just lying to myself straight up.
It’s a fact.
Nothing and it’d never be enough.

2009 on repeat

juwita — Mon, 07 May 2012 17:26:35 +0000

It feels like 2009 all over again. It doesn’t seem right. It doesn’t seem wrong.
I eat as much as I want. As often as I please. Yet it’s not showing up.

Am getting really worried. Sharp pain. Diarrhea. Heartburn. Tightness at the chest. Spasm.

Maybe it’s time to surrender myself the way I did once. Chinese herbs do your thing please.

It’s real bad. Am already so weak. But I push myself so hard.

Am never well rested. Am always pushing myself with many things, work and errands. When do I rest? When do I sleep? I keep saying I want to sleep early. But I never do.

Am worried. Am sick of being sick. I need to get better. I must get better.

The Worst Mistake of All

The worst mistake you can make is to walk away from the person who actually stood there and waited for you.

Pursue What You Really Love or At Least Like A Lot

juwita — Sat, 07 Apr 2012 02:03:50 +0000

In my classes, I urge my students to find something they really love – or at least like a lot – and to pursue it. I always say, ‘Imagine spending the rest of your life doing something you hate, or doing something only because you get paid to do it. Find what you love and go after it!’ Years later, I’ve had students come back to me and thank me for urging them to pursue their dreams and not just the money trail.

Happy for You

Spoke to an old friend. Really old friend. We go way back.

As we were talking he told me a big news. Big yet great. I’m really happy him.

He has changed his perspective and paradigm for the future.

Alhamdulillah. Good luck

Happy Too Soon?

Met up with Ju (yes, we share the same name but it’s a he though) to show him some of the gunny sacks done by The Great Indoors.
He needs them for a training that he would be conducting. He had selected a few from our new range, but sadly suppliers aren’t ready with them.

I’ve not met him ever since his move to Singapore in late 2010. Little did I know, Singapore changed him. He now hits the gym, grew some biceps. Less bitter but still SARCASTIC. I’ve always enjoyed talking to him because of how witty he is.

We were catching up and I shared with him with the latest news in my life. I can still clearly recall what he said and am starting to think. Is he right?

“When you’re unhappy, everything else seems a lot better”, said Ju 1.0.

Now it’s got me thinking. Is this the right choice? Should I take a break to clear my mind? What exactly do I want from my life. Oh sigh.

Dear God, your guidance is very much needed at this point of time. Amin.

You look good

Had a quick pit stop at Eric the owner of Haus of BIB. My ever trusty abused and used Blackberry aka Boboy was going wonky. It has been mad for a couple of days. Especially the delete button. I’ve been having an epic case of typo.

Since I was in the neighborhood and couldn’t stand the problems with my Blackberry. I met up with him for a short visit. Luckily it was nothing serious. Just some dust stuck at the motherboard/keyboard area. He did a quick clean and I was on my way to my next destination.

When I left he messaged, You look good.
Yeay, that’s an achievement after the last time I met him in January during CNY and he said I’ve lost a tremendous amount of weight. Which is true.
Looks like my Chinese herbs are doing me good.
I’m on a serious diet of no chocolates and no tea.

It ain’t easy for someone like me who binges every few minutes. Wish me luck!
