heard a song on the radio today, a familiar song that I've heard growing up (thanks to gold 90 fm). It's not even from my generation, and I never knew the name of the song, the full lyrics, nor the person who sang it. Don't we just love google?
Come on and lead me on
Come on and tease me all night long
Lovin' you I know it's right
I'll always need you, I'll never leave you
Come on and lead me on
Tease me all night long
I'd rather be a fool with a broken heart
Than someone who never had a part of you
What debatable morals. but at least now i know the name of the song, and at least, the words to the chorus. haha and the name of the singer is maxine nightingale (or so it seems, on youtube). just fyi =p
it's been a whirlwind of ativity. PFC right now, so that's kinda crazy. the project's huge, and it's difficult to even wrap my mind around the amt of work they expect us to put in for this. But after the countless lunch meetings and late nights, at least we have some ideas, some conceptualisation... it's firming up, slowly but steadily. hopefully tues mtg doesn't throw everything back to square one haha.
but despite it all, i really do enjoy it (yeah i know, i shldn't say too soon right? but i do!) perhaps it's the grp setting, and thank God, the grp dynamics are not bad. I do have some pretty capable pple in my group, and most of them are willing to pull their weight. Really need to thank God for that. It's been pretty fun (though tough), but honestly, i'm really learning so much. This is what planning is all about. and feeling intellectually challenged, and tying both the macro and micro end of things together... that's what i'm talking about.
maybe it also helps that it's not really work per-se. and that we aren't going to be the pple who need to execute it. and of cos, the fact tt it's more an opportunity for us to testbed ideas - not being the actual planner in charge means tt we won't get roasted inside-out if the ideas are a little half-baked, and if they don't pass management. haha
i rather stay back anytime to do this, than be clearing cases. oops. but yes. and it makes me oh-so-envious of the drawing skills of architects. ah. i do wish i cld draw at least passably (which unfortunately, i seem to lack a single iota of ability in). Well, at least it appears i am learning to do some basic stuff on butter paper, and perhaps i can fake some tentative building outlines with some arty-farty archi design thing in mind haha. new-found respect for architects tho, and this makes me resolve to treat the architects a little better [but then again, just because their job is tough doesn't mean they have to make mine tough! and some of them, seriously, just cannot make it]
I guess I can't wait for end nov then. hopefully, that will be a breather. but i guess, you never know. they like to ensure that you're always always always having something or other to be busying yrself with. thank God that it has never all clashed at the same time, cos I'm not sure I cld survive that.
before every phone call, before every meeting, before every decision is sent out, a quiet prayer steadies the heart and readies the courage. More than ever, it's clear that He has always been right beside me every moment, every day.
