New Zealand Dreams..

Ok, just so that you know, my past entry is no longer valid… but the dream of owning a landed property is still way up my list. It’s just that we have to search for a new dream home or wait for it to become more affordable.. Hey, Malaysia’s Property showcase is on this week. So will be hopping over there for sure.

New Zealand dreams? Yep.. I’ve attended the scholarship interview. Somewhat unexpected.. I didn’t think I’d be summoned to the interview so soon. But it was all my doing.. somehow..  So the interview went rather well.. my perspective at least.  Friendly panel, easy-peasy questions, just smooth.. Too bad I didn’t have my thesis proposal ready in time for the interview. But I had a good enough excuse. I mean who could very well have prepared a proposal in less than 3 days, right?? I still have not found a fantastic topic for my research. I’m thinking issues on gender, communication or should it be on child language development or something related to EQ, SQ.. I am still undecided. But time is on my side.. Imagine, come September 2009, we’ll be living, breathing the air in New Zealand! Now that’s exciting!!

Unworkable Plans?

For those who have been wondering whether I’ve disappeared of the surface of this Earth, fret not. I’ve been very busy. Hubby’s been in hospital for tonsil removal and is now home on 2 week long medical leave which started the previous Tuesday. Despite that, we managed to sneak him away to watch his fave You Tube-popular-now-recording-artist, Marie Digby perform live (free) in One Utama. She’s one bright talent really with a rather sad past (It’s amazing how people who’d gone through alot of hardship come out of it more successful than others. It’s like there’s this force of nature just willing for them to make it big).

This week is a rather critical one for me. For one, my PTK exams are coming up and I could barely focus what with all the going-ons at work (and at home - this whole commitment thing is really getting to me). Secondly, T. Harv Eker’s Internet Millionaire Mind Intensive Seminar (which I have a ticket) will be on this week however, babysitting arrangements not looking too good.

Sigh.. I guess this teaches me a good lesson - “Always put into consideration the opinion and schedule of other parties that may be involved directly or indirectly with your own plans.”

Now things are looking abit hazy. I’ve already bought the RM400++ ticket but may not be able to go. Now I have to find someone who’s willing to buy the ticket from me or might be forced to give it away for fr**. Otherwise, I could always still attend the seminar but not wholly. I may be forced to whisk back and forth from home - even the thoughts of doing this draws strength outta me..

I am thankful though that at least I have Thursday and Friday off and a colleague has compromised to takeover my minute-taking-duties at a rather important weekly meeting. Thank you Safuwan.

Monday, Tuesday - PTK!! Argghh.. To think that I used to love taking exams (back during my student days..)!!

P.S. Yus, I was going to update yesterday really. But as I was sitting in front of my PC, I felt a slight swaying (twice). I though it was just me feeling tired and dizzy from all the exertion. I had asked my hubby whether he’d felt the tremor but he confirmed that it was just me and whisk me off to bed. Not surprisingly I found out this morning that the tremor was real and was felt by many others especially in the Damansara areas. So note to me: trust your own instincts! hehehe..
