There would be self-denial if I say there is no jitters within me right now, feeling the heat and the mounting pressure within me as I grasp whatever that I need to know.
Stress level - 80% (still manageable)
Mood - Ecstatic (with mixed feelings)
Confession Time follks - I've been tasked and nominated for an upcoming summit meeting and I felt honoured to be given this opportunity 'soaking' in Big Time. Of late, I've been staying late preparing myself with loads of materials prior to this meeting hence I reckoned with lack of sleep and pressure, physically I haven't been strong.
Anyway, I would not be blogging for the next two weeks and thank you blog buddies and friends for reading SO SHIOK faithfully - giving me the support and in embracing new friendship.
It's gonna be long but just want my blog buddies to know that somehow I dun know why, a bond has been established and this is to :
