To this big hearted gal

well well well, 1.17am. gosh, i shld be slping bt i thought i shldn't. Not without writing this.

The entire wkend was unaccounted for due to the Race Essentials Pack Collection(REPC) that took place from fri all the way to sun.

It was fun and enriching. Being in such a big scale event rly took my breath away, n my energy as well.

I seen cute volunteers doing silly stuff, our guys playing frisbee diving into the mountain of packs, angry customers, pissed customer and just hectic work.

Well, to start off. my wkend was totally in town. From morning to evening i'll either be in the suntec convention or i'll be in office slogging my life away. or eating supper wif the guys and slping in Marina Mandarin Hotel or lying dead at the office floor. Man, i'm really deprived of rest.

It definitely made SSC feels like my family, since all of us are deprived of our own family and loved ones during this period. Guys becomes brothers and sisters. Taking care of one another.

This also mark my final week with SSC before i go back to the gnashing teeth of school life, fighting to be the best. SSC, turns out to be a break which i desperately need, even though it's ironic of wad rest i haf.

But most imptly after reading sth, and hearing sth. i just like to share with you guys abt this lil gal intern who is big at heart - Megan.

Well, to start off wif. She's a intern that joined us not long ago, rly hyperactive noisy lil gal tt i didn't think much of at the start. Perhaps cause she's really young and always looking to be more mature den her real age.

I saw how she makes Gold 90.5fm's phrase - Only hear the good things so unbelieveably true.

I saw how childish she was playing with her kakis volunteers with booth 43 1/2.

I saw how kind she was when she stayed with this gal who was crying in the toilet.

Well, today. i saw her cry.

At first, i thought she was joking wif her bubbly character. like how she told me she had to go meet her family for dinner when it turned out to be 3 dragonboaters.

But, she really did cry. My heart broke at that point.

Junwei, when did you lost the ability to connect when someone was at her lowest point?

Upon realisation, i felt her heart of struggle at that point. I know she's busy with so much things out there, even though it's a small misunderstanding there. I felt why was she so tired.

To be honest Megan, im like you. In fact, we're exactly in the same condition. i know that juggling between work(esp SSC), frens, loved ones and trying to put God in the main picture is super difficult. Indeed, It's not easy at all, with the situation against you. When every1 just seem so at ease with wad they are doing. and you have to hold on to God's priniciples that was carved into ur heart. It's definitely not easy at all. Well, at the very least if i could make it better, at least im going through where you are walking. and that i understand and honestly care.

I read your blog, and that i felt your struggles. Im not someone who encourages wif bible and just tell you to pray and seek God all that. Yes that most important, but not to someone who can't even lift the veil yet. Im not here to pity you. But here to say that, no matter what happens, always look at your situation and stand firm to what you believe. The world will not make it easier for you. But you got to understand that. One who stands on higher ground, see further den one who stands on ground. Besides, do rmb you're standing on a solid rock. = )

Being an intern is indeed tough, having to face so many things at a go. Even when you're only newly attached here. And you need to prove your worth to others who don't tink much abt you. Sometimes, u lost track of who you are. wad you do. But i believe it's a learning experience for you. Just imagine Megan, it's only an internship. Wad if it's real working life? There's so much more to handle, so much more battles to fight for. Im just glad that you chose to do internship, so you can be better prepared of what's ahead of you.

At the end, i will just like to add that even though im left with 6 days before internship ends. Im glad that God placed you in my care for REPC, for me to know a great lil sister like you, that makes my internship a whole lot meaningful that at least i didn't waste my time here. And i thank God for you, that change my thinking and hopefully make a turning point in my wrecked-up life.

I thank you for you. It's ok to cry. For God made us with emotions.

Love,
Jed
