They were giving out balloons and I wanted one, so I cried and insisted she got it for me. But she said that if I wanted something, I had to get it myself. “In life, nothing will be placed on the plate for you,” she said. This stuck with me throughout my studies and career.]]> 2021-01-31 03:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/bukitbatokww2020/b71wusqbe1o4t3s2/wish/1144433226 Ms Areena- Ex Boss, an elder sister to me https://padlet.com/bukitbatokww2020/b71wusqbe1o4t3s2/wish/1247763819 Till now, I am still very grateful that I have met her and under her guidance at that stage of my life. She taught me the importance of self-awareness, self-reflection, building on character and a good heart. She assured me that it is ok not to follow the "norm" and to do what I know is right. "Giving is a Blessing and Give back!"

She would explain that the person must be having a bad time or must be in a bad mood resulting in inappropriate behaviour, and responding in anger would only aggravate the situation. This is something that I follow to this day besides the other lessons of empathy & unconditional love that she has been an epitome of all these years.]]> 2021-03-02 11:03:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bukitbatokww2020/b71wusqbe1o4t3s2/wish/1257689558 My mother bukitbatokww2020 https://padlet.com/bukitbatokww2020/b71wusqbe1o4t3s2/wish/1267388252 She was a strong and resilient woman. She was a widow in her late 40s and brought six of us up single- handedly through hardship. She passed on at the age of 103. ]]> 2021-03-04 05:43:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bukitbatokww2020/b71wusqbe1o4t3s2/wish/1267388252
