i’ve always wanted to be a source of encouragement, a source of hope to other people. one of my desires is to inspire other people. it may not be grand or elegant things that i could do, but in simple things like an encouraging word, a shoulder to lean on, a hug or even a smile.

why is it easier to complain and rant than think of blessings that we receive? i’m guilty of complaining more and ranting more, than being grateful and thankful to God for all His blessings. i still thank Him, but not as often as my complaints.

I’ve been facilitating the English Conversation Class for more than 2 years now. I’m not an English major, and I know that I’m not really qualified to teach it. But since I’m the only foreigner in the office who could speak it well, the job’s mine.
This job’s really frustrating. I’m running out of ideas and the people attending it is getting fewer. Of course, their attendance depends on their workload. So if they’re not that busy, they could attend the class. Or even if they’re not that busy, their attendance also depends on the time they wake up and the situation of the traffic going to the office.

I finally reformatted my computer last weekend. I’ve been thinking of doing this task for so long, but I can’t really start because of the hassle of doing this. You know.. Making a back-up of all the files that I have, my messages and emails.. But after a “small accident” in my HDD (I was trying to make a partition, but in the middle of the process an error occurred), I was forced to buy a new HDD and install my OS there.
So right now, I’m enjoying a clean slate in my computer. Clean installation. And of course, I was able to retrieve my files from my other HDD.
