Been such a long time since i blogged...yeapz...home still no internet connection. waiting for housemates to balik home from their respective countries b4 i can discuss with them.
Been kinda busy helping out in the orientation for the past week and so. Have felt challenged by it actually. I am supposed to help in the registration and enrolment of the students, mingle with the students and basically just ensure that they are settling down fine and everything.
Why do i say it is a challenge to me? Basically coz i normally dun take the initiative to talk to strangers. And yet, not only did i have to take this initiative, I had to establish a conversation with them and build a friendship with them from the scratch. I was afraid at first. I mean, it's been such a long time since i played such a role. After so many years of wanting to slack off and not take the outward approach, it was tough. I have grown accustomed to my comfort zone, not willing to let ppl enter this zone of mine unless I allow them to.
I prayed really hard...really really hard tt I would be wise and courageous to make that 1st step. And i was glad tt i managed to accomplish that. I have gotten to know so many new ppl and exchanged contact nos. I have even played badminton with some of them last week. Will be playing with them again tomorrow, with other of my friends.
It's just so amazing how i managed to do it. Am really grateful and thankful.
well, tt's about it.take care readers
