Part 6: Live now. Live later.
Been having a good few days. I guess I was just incredibly happy that my parents are coming over I didn’t even let any one bring me down.
Had my hair cut on Sunday, so that mom would like it and I would look good in pictures. Well I know I’d look good anyway but I’d rather look the best I can be.
Planned my tour on Monday. Then had Dharma class. It was insightful as usual.
Literally floating on Tuesday. Finished quite a bit of job and didn’t realize how fast I was. I guess being happy does make your efficiency increase. Had my designation change to IT Project Executive, since it reflects what I do these days. IT Projects. Not the best to my liking, but at least I’m doing well at it.
Kinda insanely busy today. Once again proved my superb service by solving 4 accounts a day. Taught Kok Wei programming in AJAX. Had 2 business meetings. Helped users as an IT consultant. Nailed a $24′000 deal. Had another client called me up for a meeting tomorrow for a corporate brochure design and a web design. Fix some bugs. LOL they don’t pay me enough. :p
Talking about bonuses and pays during lunch, though jokingly, kinda made me think a little. I mean said a lot of time the numbers don’t matter that much (I know, how dumb). It’s just it shows how much I am valued at and how much I am being appreciated. Being an idealist as I am, at the same time I’m an attention whore. I just want my hard work (and very often excellent work) to be recognized and appreciated. Maybe that’s too much to ask for.
I got a job offer from a friend’s friend’s friend on facebook. The guy looked at facebook looked at my profile, and then my web portfolio (Kids, if you want to go into media field, get a website, $80 a year can bring you pretty far. This is the 2nd time I got a job offer while I’m working full-time and not looking). I’m really flattered people are looking at my work and my profile for what they are, and what I am really good at.
1 more day till my family is here. The true meaning of family.
I guess it’s time I take a break, indulge myself in love and care, enjoy traveling. And then, after that, I’ll be ready to kick ass, to change the world, to once again become the tireless workaholic idealist that always strives forward! Like an eagle, isn’t necessarily always surrounded by people, but I’m flying high.
I’m gonna live happy now. I’m gonna live fully later.
