This are photos taken with my new mobile phone!!
This was YanRu and Me, at SIM Management House, up at Namely Avenue on a Saturday! We had Human Resource Management revision workshop from 10am-5pm, by our very own lecturer, Jacqueline Coyle, from University of London (London School of Economics). We had the workshop this weekend, both on a Saturday and a Sunday. I know what you're thinking. Yes, you're right. We had lessons from 10am-5pm on both Saturday and Sunday. It's totally unbelievable. It actually makes us look like part-time students.
Glad we had taken a feel pictures during the workshop, especially when we're at the Management House, as we don't get to be there frequently.
This would be how a lecture theatre looks, at the Management House. It's very woody and ancient. Worst of all, the structure of the sitting arrangements in there makes it kinda disruptive. Whenever a student tries to get into his/her seat, everyone else in the particular row has to stand up and let him/her in. I hope that explains why.
The Nokia 5610 gives me really good pictures. It has 3.2mega pixels. Therefore the pictures taken would be of high quality. I love taking pictures. Thank God for blessing me with this mobile phone. Ah..Yes. Have I mentioned that I could now take videos with audio recordings alongside? haha. This phone could do so! I know most mobile phones already have that facility. My previous phone, which had been with me for the past four years, wasn't able to do so. The other cameras I have also do not have those facilities.
Thank God for that facility. I could now do more DVs and MVs. haha. Go guess for yourselves the meaning to the above terms.
Last Christmas I received a magnet from HweeSan and TJ, and I really like the design, and more importantly it bore my Name, Grace. One afternoon while I was doing my normal shopping, I came into a gift shop which sells that very magnet. I also came across many others with that same design. They have keychains, files, tablemats, etc. I got myself a file and a keychain. haha. This is a picture of my file.
This picture was supposed to be a bird. However I used my flash on the mobile in an incorrect manner and hence it produces such a design. haha.
Before I end this blog, I guess I would like to mention something which had impressed upon me by Jacqueline Coyle during the workshops. Lets take alook at the various phrases:
"If you keep looking for something, you'll definitely find it!"
"My bark is bigger than my bite"
Jacqueline was elaborating into the topic of Psychological Contracts on Saturday. We are looking into the area of justice within the employment. Statistics have shown that workers who were unfairly treated in the past, would tend to perceive an unfair treatment in their subsequent workplaces. It might be a genuine unfair treatment in their subsequent workplaces, or it may not be. What we're saying here is that employees who were previously unfairly treated tend to be more vigilant in their subsequent workplaces. They're more suspicious. What happens then? Any small little issue could be a big issue to them. If they're slightly mistreated, misrespected, they would perceive that the organization has breached the psychological contract. This could be one of the reasons to the incidents where employees attack their employers.
I felt rather guilty after hearing what she had just said. I felt she was kinda speaking to me or was it God who was trying to tell me something through her. I guess it was the latter. I had a dispute at cell on Friday. I was really upset, however I couldn't understand why was I so upset over little things. It was then I knew that events of the past could have effects on me that now still affects me. I've not let go. Each time as God wants to help me, I placed all my past, my hurts, my tears, my anger at His altar. However, I kept some along with me before I left the altar. Doesn't that sound ironic? I gave forgiveness to whoever who had hurt me before, but I kept the traumatic memories with me. It is true that we can never forget what had happened, however, choosing to reflash those memories again and again would birth the anger, the feeling of hurt that were there before I had placed them at the altar previously.
If that continues, I would always perceive to be misjudged, hurt, backstabbed, etc. Hence I would look into every little issues, miscommunication, comments, actions just to find any negativity in them. There's no place on earth, the Imperfect world, that has none of the little issues, miscommunications, bad comments, wrong actions, etc. Hence if I keep searching for them, I would definitely find them.
(I would leave the other phrase to my next blog entry.)
