Life Makeover

IT has been an interesting one year.

My life has changed. From the one who is always on the run to get news to the one who is always on the run to give news.

No, I am not a superstar (yet), nor am I a politician. But I work for one. 

It's a different job description overall. From a cub reporter; to an assistant chief reporter; before trying out the national media scene as a (the sole) state correspondent to a national-based new portal; and now a press secretary to a federal minister.

Life has been interesting. I live in two states, literally, in within a week. Sometimes, three. Once I had breakfast in KL, had lunch in Kuching, and later dinner in Kota Marudu. Work is quite hectic; the flying is crazy and the car rides are endless. Call me cuckoo, but I see the fun in all these insanely work schedules.

For now, the job is treating me well. I hope it will get better. And I do hope I will not lose my sanity along the way. Maybe the fact that I am single helps. Maybe. But I have always been a hard worker, so things like these are easy to manage. 

I learned journalism the hard way. I had good mentors and I treasure the experiences.

So for now, lemme me embrace this new working environment. And hope that I will excel higher.

Thanks DSDMJO for the opportunity.

thanks for your time ...

my mother once told me i was named by my uncle. when i was in my primary years, i remember begging my name be changed
to 'Cindy' (after Cindy Lauper - i don't know, somehow "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" was just too good to be ignored...geez),
anyways, thank God she didn't, because today, i so love my name.
thanks mummy and daddy for 'creating' me :-).
