There Will Be A Time When You Need To Fly Alone
Work afternoon shift today, make no difference anyway-- I miss Ah Guat! Haha~ Actually I did saw her today, but didn't manage to say "Hello". Today work isn't tough, most of the time I'm walking around, doing simple things. I was taught how to do Paper Order (P.O) today. Wasn't as difficult as I though it was, but still need some judgement in it. In case some will be wondering what is P.O, P.O is something like ordering socks when it is running low. One will have to make judgement, to order enough goods. Alice wasn't as bad as I taught-- Well, maybe so far, I have only seen her "good" side? Actually I did experience her bad side, but.. Oh well, it was history.
Before going to work today, I had a meeting with Rod and Si Yun. After today's meeting, I have come to a decision. If Keep Hope Alive doesn't wish to merge with Dare2Dream, We will have to go seperate ways. Can't always work together and present ourselves as two teams. A joint project is find with me, but which organisations will always work with another to bring out a project? Get me? There will be a point, when we have to soar alone, just like a child will have to leave his/her parents when he/she is old enough. Not saying that working together is no good, but.. We have to be independent.
The meeting with Adrian yesterday made my decision firmer. Me, Si Yun and Cleo went for the TYEM information session. After the session, we stayed on to discuss some details with Eli, Si Yun's friend. After so, Adrian join in. Adrain at first thought there's only Dare2Dream Team, but after Si Yun told him that they(Si Yun and Cleo) are from another club, Adrian got a little bit confused. I don't feel good in that meeting, it's as though both clubs are...fighting?? Fighting to prove..or should I say promote our team? Cleo was right at the meeting. Cleo was telling Adrian that my Dare2Dream is a Team, while theirs is a club. Yeah, I agreed! Dare2Dream is a team, where every member works together to achieve the team's aim. I would want my member to work with me, not for me. I don't want my people to join for the sake of joining, I want them to join and feel belong!
I called Rod just now and told him my thoughts. Amazingly, Rod actually shared the same thoughts as me! Ok, I shall call Si Yun and tell her later. Being friends with Si Yun is great, Si yun make a very good friend. But when it comes to business partners.. I sometimes do find her a stumbling stone, she's a challenge for me. That's outside, I still treat her as a friend. We would call for members to vote this friday or as soon as possible. If we can't merge, we will have to go seperate way. For TYEM's project, we won't be doing it together... If we can't merge, we will have to go on our own. I really do hope we can merge, bringing both teams together. I don't want to waste time on this issue again.
Actually I wanted to meet Roy yesterday, but he has to go Jurong for some job interview, in the end, I ended up talking to Si Yun over her emotional and mental struggle. On Saturday, I was suppose to go church for fellowship, but got cancelled, so I wanted to visit Roy, but... Haiz~ Don't know what happen. he suddenly dissappear. I wasn't quite happy, but I let it go.. What's the point of being angry and burning my brain cells right?
What I expect from my other partner (Not business partner, partner as in...relationship) is their support and concern. Know and understand that I can get real busy at times, but still they have a place in my heart. I may seem aloof, but I do care about what's going on around me.. Specially the ones I love. I'm also a girl that needs confirmation, I do not wish to jump into something without really knowing what's going on.. Like Si Yun, I dislike getting hurt. But in life, we learnt through pain. It's only through pain, we become stronger-- in person, in emotions and in mental.
Just recieve some bad news from Si Yun.. Well, woman.. It's time you move on. When one doors is close, the other will open up for you.
Roy arg Roy, where are you? Have you eaten? Haha.. could have called you right.. but.. HMmMmM... Don't know lah..
Be strong Si Yun, you have Gracie!
