Funny if you think where life will lead you to. Although I'm not myself a 'life-planner' -you might say-, but I try my best to have a plan or two to reach my milestones. As like every mortal in this earth, all I can really do is plan, try my best effort to stick with it, and then pray.. I could never know the outcome until it's in front of me. This time last year, I didn't even know whether I was still going to have my job or not. But in fact, two months after that I was sent to Myanmar and given the chance to start a new life. The next 241 days or so, at the end of the project contract, I left Myanmar to take the very first training my company ever funded me, and there was the very same thought played in my mind again: 'am I still going to keep this job?'. Even after I got back to my beloved country, the vagueness was still there. Nobody was sure what would happen to my job, or even my career. At one Wednesday morning, almost two months without clarity and spending the 'vacation days' being a driver for my nieces, I got a phone call from my Boss. He said I will continue my work at Myanmar and need to go there as soon as possible. Overjoyed with the news, I almost take for granted the call I got 10 minutes later, which later on will be the next milestones in my life. They say 'life is full of choices'. You can find it written on a corny T-shirt. But in fact most things about life are corny, or trivia to say the least. What you thought a simple thing can quite overwhelming when really faced with it. What you hope and expect to happen, can catch you off guard when it really happens. Be careful what you wish for, you might get it. As for me, I wish for this thing to happen as long as I can remember. Let's see, I've been wishing for this for almost like 42 months of my 3.75 (three point seven-five) of my working years. Then when it happened, it really caught me off guard. Shortly, after a lot of considerations and future plans, we (I must say it's We rather than I) decided to end our 8 months extended-honeymoon and face the real life! I just hope that this is the right decision for us. Once in a lifetime, it doesn't hurt to change your 'color'.
