After going to MBCLA for I think over three years now, I finally decided to go to our fellowship about two months ago. I don't know what took me so long to make up my mind, but I'm glad I did. I start to understand why God wants us to have fellowship. Being around other 弟兄姊妹 not only gives me a chance to learn from them and to practice what I've learn from the Bible but I think also by talking to them and listening to their testimony, it helps strengthen my faith. A good thing indeed...
My five weeks business trip has begun earlier this week. Oakland, West Virginia, then Honolulu. I just got back from from Oakland this morning. Now I can enjoy my two days in LA until heading to West Virginia this Sunday. And quit frankly I am feeling exhausted already. I don't know why, I've been doing this for like three years now but I still find these kind of engagement difficult and very stressful. But I guess it makes sense in a way, we basically have to in and out an organization in like a 2 to 3 weeks. And within that time frame, we have to not only to understand their business structure, but to access their internal control and compliance. In other word, we have to basically point out what they've done wrong based on the knowledge we've gained in those 2 to 3 weeks. It's not hard to imagine how some people could get very defensive sometimes and things can get pretty ugly. Sigh~~so let's just pray everything will go along in these upcoming four weeks...
Time flies, April has already come to the end. One third of a year is gone now, and I think it's time to evaluate my 2010 resolution progress:
1) Finish reading the new testament: Although I am not reading the new testament on a daily basis, but I think I'm doing okay. I'm using another QT material which my church encourages us to use and I think I am doing a much better job in terms of spending more quiet time with God comparing to last year. I think I am on the right track on this one.
2) Find a girlfriend: um...I think I made a mistake by putting this as a 'resolution' in the first place. Unless my goal is to just find any girlfriend, which I am not, or else this is not something I could really control. God has his plan for me, including my significant other. So all I have to do is to learn to depend and believe in HIM completely and do what HE wants me to. And I shall not have to worry about the rest.
3) Finish a marathon within 5 hours: Checked! 4 hours 45 minutes ^^
4) Better money management: guilty! guilty! guilty! I've done nothing! Shame on me! well...maybe I should start tomorrow since it is the beginning of May, okay! let's do this.
5) Learn Chinese input: 遲D先算啦，哈哈。。。
6) Learn 10 new pieces: um...I think I am on track. I start playing piano again whenever I have time, and I think I'm getting some of my touch back now :)
7) Small meal diet: Damn! this is much much much harder than I thought. I've tried this small diet thing at least like three times already this year and all failed. I need to think of a new way to attack it! I WILL SUCCESS!
8) Able to do 100 push up, 200 sit up and 30 pull up non-stop: Last week I tried, I was able to do like 80 push up, 120 sit up and 22 pull up non-stop. I think I should be fine by the end of the year.
9) Get a new job: Nothing yet...BUT...since I will be spending a lot of alone time in the hotel room in the upcoming 4 weeks, this is what I will be doing.
10) Buy a house: ...no comment....
Well...although my progress is not as good as I hope it would be, but at least most of them are still pretty much achievable. ADD OIL!
