My Life Race Track: April 2013

At last I have "The Alchemist"

The first time I saw this book at the bookstore, knowing one of the best seller, translated in different languages, make me wonder what`s the story "the Alchemist" really all about, that most people from commoners to high profiles buy this book or want to have a copy of it. Makes me considered also to buy one for myself. I love to read novel particularly adventures and fictions. But I don`t have a hobby of buying books, I bought some also but most of the time I just borrow books from my friends that I want to read. I want to own a book that was gift to me because it takes something extra special.

Last Saturday, Eman called that the books I will be needing for the review is ready, so we agreed to met the following day, Sunday afternoon. I was surprised because he just told me that books are just about 4 inches thick all, but what he brought is one big eco bag full of books that would be around 5 kilos or more. As I scanned the books inside, there is one on top put in a separate eco paper bag. I asked him, what is it, because I thought it`s for him, he smile and said... You guess, I bought this a week ago and I know you will like it.! Guessing in my mind I grab it to his hand and as I opened it, I was really surprised, I have in my hand the book I wanted so much to have a copy of my own. I just smile back at him and say thank you. I was speechless of his thoughtfulness.

I`m not yet finished reading but no worries I`ll post what is it all about once I`m done :)

I wish I could Drive

I love so much myself in this picture, being seated on the driver`s seat, hands on the steering wheel and feeling like a professional driver, yet make me feel sad, the fact that I don`t really know how to drive. Same thing that I will miss the one who took this picture

I love cars, though I don`t have much knowledge about the specs of each model but seeing those beautiful design, that was really amazing things to me. I have some match box hang on my closets` door. And every time I opened it and see those little cars makes me smile and wish that one day I could drive even just one of them.

Having my own car is not as much as my dream of having my own house. But I really wish I will know how to drive too. If I will be able to drive soon that would be a big achievement for me. Because it was a great skill to acquire as a woman.

Teamwork

As Wikipedia defines Teamwork - work done bu several associates with each doing a part but all subordinating personal prominence the efficiency of the whole.

I`m still in the process of adjustments for my new job responsibility. From the start I know it would not be easy because some of the task are really new to me, particularly in terms of technicality and rules. I have this fear at first, if they ask something and I don`t have any idea with the matter, how I can help my group when technically I`m not totally equip with all the things that I have to handle.

The spirit of teamwork is really present in our group. In less than a month I could tell, my team is great and I love them, as their new leader I could see now and appreciate more their dedication towards work. They really help me to cope up on things that I need to learn. They have the sense of responsibility to do job on their own, asked what things need to be done, and offer help to someone that needs backup.

We`re working on same goal, teaching and helping each other towards zero delays :)... Busy days or not, we don`t forget to laugh together, making things each day more light and easy.

A blessing & a new Endeavor

Once again, God shows me his love. Thank you for this another blessing, an Easter gift, new life`s endeavor on my career. Although, a week ago, it was already mentioned to me by my our VP, but it was effective officially today, April 01, 2013, I was promoted as Assistant Supervisor. :)

With all my heart I humble myself, really hard work pays off and this is it. It`s a new adventure, new path to take and more challenge to face. I offer this to God, to my family especially to Mama, and to all people so dear to my heart who are always there to support me and give me courage to take off. I love you all.

It has a responsibility and accountability to take being a leader, I`m accepting it today and looking forward for the days that I can serve in my own little way. Guide me, Oh God.
