Dengue and dog's poo...?

No regrets

I have always tried my best to live life without regrets. The way I see it, I try to make the best decisions I can make at that point in time. Even if it ultimately doesn't pan out, I couldn't have known at that time mah. So no regrets.

Given that I have spent the greater part of the past 4 years complaining about working in EY, one might think I would have lotsa regrets? But no actually. I know why I forced myself to last the 4 years, trying to complete my CA and CFA. But it's not just about that. 4 whole years - that's almost half of my 20s! Was it worth it?

So much I've experienced in that time. I've learnt from so many people who bothered to mentor me, been inspired to do the same for others, felt the pride of being good at my job, felt so much anger and hatred at one boss I thought I was going to lose my soul, learnt to let go and lean on God, made friends, found love. In many ways, it has shaped me, shown me the kind of person I can be and wanna be.

Do I wish the past 4 years went differently? Perhaps. Do I have any regrets? No. It was a necessary part of my journey.

What's in a name

Was asked what runcornwaves is. It's actually a throwback to jc/ns days, when i was spending waaaay too much time on irc and icq. My nick was runcorn (irc) and waves (icq). Runcorn was the name of the team i used to play with in Championship Manager, waves was cos I used to sail. Brings back memories huh, ke-yue, kenneth.

On a more serious (and hopefully mature) note, may san rightly pointed out the issue of students finding out about my blog next time. Haha, I guess there'll be no complaining about students on this site. But it's a fair point, there have been many reports on blogs by teachers/lecturers in the media. Then again, it's not like i'm going to put up any inappropriate pictures rite? Best thing is to just be myself, and pray that my life will be positive testimony to others.

5 posts in 2 days... Looks like I am enjoying blogging! haha...

Anticipation

Coming soon...

I know, I know... I'm such a kid. :P

A week to go

4 years in EY, every year I wanted to quit, 3 of those years I actually did quit. I've finally left for good.

They say the first job change is the hardest. In a week, I will experience that for the first time. Choosing to lecture in NYP was perhaps the toughest decision I have ever made in my life. But I have such conviction that this is what God has planned for me and He has indeed cleared the path for this to happen.

Passion vs money? I say neither... I choose God.

1 year (and 1 day)

Happy Birthday, Joel! Godpa loves you.

First steps

It may seem so commonplace these days, but this is a huge thing for the private person that is me. Why blog then? Because I have appreciated the sharing of my friends' blogs. Been blessed by their sharing. Thanks viola, jess, may san, shu wen, angie, eunice, for introducing me to this world.

(here's hoping this doesn't become a complain site. hahaha...)
