Finding a balance
To find an equilibrium point in life- work n leisure, family n friends, social n personal... Still searching. Still learning. Still growing.

TIRED

i m tired. physically, mentally, emotionally.

will take a rest during this holiday. hopefully i can recover before venturing into a whole new year.

impermanence. i ponder at this buddhism philosophy.

will be away from 17 dec to 21 dec. will a holiday give me a peace of mind? i hope.

pray for the best for the people that i love, i care.

to the ppl that i care about, please take care of yourselves, no matter what happen, health is the most important.

Edinburgh International Education Conference

It's a nice trip. very mind-awakening and enriching. This is the first time I participate at a conference like this, and the first time I spoke on stage to so many people. but i think I did quite well, and I am satisfied with my own performance.

Taking part in this conference is such a great experience for me. Funny enough, I had NO idea at all about networking/ 'circulating' in social functions until I was there and maritza taught me that this is how socializing works. shameful for me! How ignorant I was! oh boy i could not believe that i was so ignorant about things... but realized that i picked up the skills quite nicely and i actually enjoyed it.

as i went through the process of talking to ppl and looking at things, listening to debates and discussions and speeches, i realized there are so many things for me to learn. At the same time i discovered that this conference rekindled my passion about education. i remembered i talked to dad n mum about my childhood dream as being involved in education, and i did not expect that one day, today, i am really in touch with this field. i guessed, that's the blood that runs in our family, where almost everyone is in education sector.

i started thinking about my future and the dreams i wanted to pursue. i was talking to maritza and when she talked about doing what she dreams to do, i found my old dreams started coming back, about educating people, about writing, about piano, about teaching, about everything... am i going to the right direction in my life? going towards actuary would be a good career, but is it my real passion, real dream? i pondered..

EICC - a place to remember. treasure the moments spent in here. also, feel so grateful to meet so many nice and remarkable people. and making some new friends whom i share so much similar interests is so fulfilling. I am so gonna miss the time spent here..

3 days of busy schedule did not make me tired. In fact i felt reluctant to leave the place. i will miss it.
