Of April Antics And May Madness
I have not been updating this blog for a super long time. Almost 2 months? So much has happened and its just a tad too lengthy to go into details right now. Everything has just been crazy. And frankly, i am drained. Emotionally, mentally and physically.
I shall not elaborate on what took place to make me feel the way I have been feeling. Its just friggin pointless to remind myself of all the despondence. Lets just focus on the highlights of my life right now.
I thank God for work has kept me insanely occupied. Pretty caught up in a project which I felt was the opportunity for me to step up to the plate and showcase my abilities. Imagine coming back to the office on days when you are on mc/scheduled leave, working from home despite being super sick at one point. After 11 weeks of slogging, the pain paid off. We exceeded expectations and I finally felt that it was all worth my while when the other department (the one which literally squeezed every bit of my brain juice - or whatever thats left of it) sang my praises to the GM. Now I have been entrusted with the same project - Octo 2 which is expected to surpass results from Octo 1. Hopefully I will be able pull it off a 2nd time. If I do, then I could be convinced of a fantastic appraisal next year. Insya Allah.
May 15th saw Naufal Haziq turning 2. I am beginning to believe that the Terrible Twos syndrome is not just hearsay. Haziq has grown to be quite a handful. He has learnt how to point to the door to ask me to get out of the vicinity whenever I scold him. He has learnt that if he does not want to walk, he should just squat down wherever and wait for me to cave and carry him. He has learnt that by wailing at the top of his lungs, he will get what he wants. And most importantly, he has learnt that if I do not give in to his demands, he should just go to Bibik or Abah and they will be most obliging. Despite it all, he is still the one that matters most to me. He is the first one I look forward to seeing at the beginning of every new day and the last person I want to hold before I close my eyes at night.
A break is much needed right now. Am sooooo looking forward to June 19th. Sunway, with sis and my loved ones. More so, I am wishing that I can just skip to October so that we will be able to focus on our 10day long vacation.
p/s: Was fb hopping and I am just so envious of a particular someone who just has it all. *sigh*
If insatiable desire is a sin, then forgive me for I am so a sinner....
