Yesterday I received a good news in my email. I badly wanted to share the good news with those who are dear to me but somehow I couldn’t. I shared it with my family and they congratulated me. I was expecting a better response from my partner but I guess he is too busy and just gave a thumbs up reaction to my post in the family group. Each one of my family member congratulated me and dad even joke that whatever prize I’m getting I should share it with him. I think if I share it with my “twin”, he would have been more engaging and supportive. I have no doubts at all on how he would responded because I could predict his response since we are too similar. Anyway I really did not expect the good news and I read the email a few times as the only reason I had submitted an entry was to show support by participation and that was my only goal.
I am exceptionally happy as I finally purchased the Valentine’s Day turtle skin on Gunbound mobile and also a Valentine’s Day pet which has the ability called “hug”. Basically “hug” is a skill whereby friendly tanks get their HP restored when they are within a distance of 200 (makes me wonder what is the unit of distance used in the game). I really enjoy the trace of pink hearts along my shooting trajectory and purposely played battle training just to see it a few times. It would be nicer if they could actually make my special weapon into heart shaped water droplets. I think it is lovely to have achieve a few things in 2024 and in the blink of an eye it is now February.
February will be a very short month and I am quite excited yet a little nervous about the “good news” as I am required to do a presentation and that was never in my plans. I guess it’s for me to overcome stage fright. All my life I am often forced to overcome stage fright as I recalled participating in multiple story telling, debate and speech competitions. Sometimes I do wonder why am I always putting myself through those stressful situations. Anyway I know I cannot escape speaking to an audience because it is something required in my career and the only way to get better is to force myself to face my fear. Master did say fear is bad and therefore I shall meditate to overcome it and pray that I could remain composed and calm whenever I need to face a crowd of people.
I still haven’t figured out what to get as a return gift for my thoughtful friend and driver who I often seek his service whenever I need to go to the airport or bus station. I was surprised that he prepared a red packet for me the other day thinking that I am away to celebrate Chinese New Year at home. He sees me like a daughter and despite knowing I’m married he still gave me a red packet. I am thinking of some edibles that are healthy and nourishing but with nice Chinese New Year packaging. I am really hoping to get the gift latest by next Wednesday before I head home on next Thursday.
May February be filled with lots of blessing for everyone!
