Sunday afternoon

Still in the office. Can't concentrate anymore on work. Nadia,my colleague is still typing at a breakneck speed. Rushing to finish her paper for an international conference. It's a sad sort of silence between us, haven't talk for hours.

"Who'e taking care of your baby?" I asked.
" He's at home with my husband." She replied.

That was the last converstion we had today, sometime around 10.0m a.m. It's been more than 6 hours since we actually communicate. While I'm just enjoying my time here, she's been stressing for hours. Wonder how I can make her more comfortable... Perhaps I should go back home now and leave her alone.

Busy Sunday, next week too. Not busy, but I'll be having business meetings, visiting my gran in Seremban, then rushing back to Melaka again. Don't think I'll have time to meet up with Jules or Sandz next week. I really crave for it though. Jules said she's always anxious to meet me too everytime I went back. haha... She said it's "Sharon's Day"..

Sent an e-mail to Leonard today. We've been too caught in our own work to even talked to each other since CNY. Feel weird for not able to talk to my own brother.. how can I let this happened? Wonder how's he doing. Wonder how's my 'Tai Soh" (sis-in-law) doing too. Got a picture of Leonard in one of his recent performance with a jazz band -- Happy People Quintet. Quite a funny name huh? They were performing on 17th February in Avanti's American-Italian restaurant. Hmm.. What a surprise....


From left: "Happy People Quintet" members Eddie (trumpet and flugelhorn), Julian (saxophone & Flute), AJ (bass), Leonard (That's my bro! on piano & keyboard), Charles (drums).

Check out for the review of this band: http://alldatjazz.com/item/575/catid/4

Feeling proud of Leonard right now. There were good reviews about him. Wish I could hear him play again soon..

My Donkey

Remember the annoying, big mouthed yet good in nature Donkey in Shrek and Shrek 2? Can you remember any friends that resembles the Donkey? And seriously, I DO NOT MEAN PHYSICALLY!!! Recently, I've come to realized that there are lots of " Donkeys " in my life. Don't feel offended if I'm referring anyone as a donkey, coz do put in mind that at the same time, I'm an Ogre too. Yep, it's funny how some friends tend to annoyed us so much that we would like to tell them to shut their mouth sometimes! They will keep on going just to keep us annoyed even you've give out all the possible signals and hints that you're really not in the mood to join in their play. But their patience is somewhat last for eternity. They'll follow you around just to keep you in their watching distance. Although some may not resembled the loud Donkey in Shrek, but they do have other ways to annoy you. I have this particular friend who were so choosy and annoying, and somet...

Anger Management

M   : Aunty Sharon, I am angry now.. Me : Why? What happened? M   : Daddy wanted to share my biscuits, I don't want to. Me : What should we do when we are angry? M   :....... Me : Let's breath, and count. M   : Ok Aunty Sharon.. Me : Breath, 1.... Breath... M   : 2... Breath, 3..... Breath 4....(chuckle) Me : Are you ok now? Are you still angry? M   : No, its funny! (Burst out laughing) 13 days in to Movement Control Order, I have spent a lot of time with Matia for the past 13 days. This little boy is turning 5 this year, struggled with some TV addiction, but he did so well today. From spending time playing on his own, painting, trying to read (even when he complains it is difficult), eating lunch by his own without leaving the table, taking in the vegetables which he usually manage to pick out with his tongue, and yes... anger management. We found that he was talking spitefully to both his parents on every small rejection...

Whirlwind

It has been a whirlwind like for the past month. Had a depresive episode and anxiety attack last month, and still recovering from it. This is not the first time in depression, but it scares me alot compare to the last one some 12 years ago. I find myself gasping for air, reaching out for help, so that i can stay afloat in the midst of darkness and drowining. I remembered Kel alot during the past month or so.. the mental image of him lifeless, reminds me again and again, that I need to hang on in there, and put in effort to be alive. I am thankful to God in many ways, to give me the courage to walk out from this unscathed. Rather, I was given the chance to learn who I am as a person. I was exposed to my own shortcomings even when I refuse to see it, I was challenged to 'let go' to things and emotional burden that I have been carrying all this while. I spoke to more people in the past month then I ever spoke to in the year before. I knew I was desperate, and I needed to see and...
