Know what REALLY matters to you

Today is the 7th days since my surgery. My daily life isn't really boring as I exaggerate it. I check company's email, working on some freelance project, chatting with my boyfriend, posting some comments in facebook, read some books, taking a hot shower, listening to Jazz music...

My friend was right, when one used to be busy stay at home for a few days, one will become miserable, weird thinking, started to ponder why isn't the partner here. I would like to apologize to my dear, I know he is as hurt as my feet does. I see his tolerance on me. I know he gave his greatest heart to me. I know...

I am still reading "It's not about the coffee", every word is inspiring.
I owe it to myself to find the one hat that I can wear everyday in every are of my life.

Howard Behar was in furniture business. Someone asked him," What do you love? Furniture or People?" He was thinking, furniture is furniture. But is was also the way he expressed his creativity. When he thought more about it, the emotions and passion he felt about his work didn't have to do with the furniture, they had to do with the people.

This reminds me of:
People who know me long enough know that I always like to work as a waitress. I like to serve people. I like to give people surprise. I like to see people smiling, I like to see happy faces. It was the people that I loved- the interaction among people, serving other people, learning from other people.

Happy people is a matter to me.

Can you just stop eating, bitch?

little changes

Just want to encourage myself. I made some little changes and effort in my diet.

I didn't drink milk even though I was hungry before i sleep.
I drink hot coffee instead of cold.
I didn't eat the banana I brought with me.
I eat only 1 half boiled egg instead of 2.
I drink green tea instead of milk coffee after lunch.
I bought fruits rather than veggie pao for snack later.

Resolved

Body is feeling tired from the 4 hours-drive, but my spirit has been rejuvenate.

10pm: Gavin bought us putu mayam from Pulau Tikus. Funny thing is that I don't have keys to go out of my house to take from him. That's the furthest distance on earth. LOL.

Spent quality time with Eewen doing manicure & pedicure. My toe nails are in yellow, and thanks to Esther for adding 2 cherries on the thumb. I hope this cheer the doctor up during my bunion surgery.

People can actually see I use my heart to do things. But suddenly realize that it's been sometime I forgot to put put my heart into things that I like to do. I feel sorry for my analogue cameras, I was greedy to get all of them but never really put my heart into them to bring the best out of it. I don't even organize the pictures that I have. Don't even know what film did I use for that roll.

Looking at Joy's pictures make me notice that she see things with heart. But mine is not too bad, I found fun and laughter in my pictures, =P and I guess this is me! Fun, bold, sunshine, witty, nonsense...

I wanna keep a journal of my journey, with pictures, collage, and heart. Other than my mom, Bhoidy is the greatest gift that god has given to me. Should I now believe in god? He has given me a lot of signs. Please watch the book of Eli.


Goodbye bunion!
