Manuscript found in ACCRA

Although we cannot control God's time, it is part of the human condition to want to receive the thing we are waiting for as quickly as possible.
Or to drive away whatever is causing our fear...

2013 shall begin with Old Habits

So today i have decided to start writing again. Turning 30 should mark a big start for me or something. Its almost a month into the year and how's that working for me?

I spent most of Jan in New York and Boston with baby and Hui Shan. It was definately a very different experience as compared to last year with Sheena. Although in New York we kinda did similar things, this time however we visited the musuems. They were AWESOME! The American National History Musuem is by far my most favourite musuem. It was soo COOL!!! I could spend the entire day there just soaking up the history.

Met Ms Adeline Koay and Aman in NYC and that was cool. We both have come a long way since the days of Uni. Both of us working and doing well. From the days of Chatswood, I now present to you, Dr Adeline Koay and Business Ops Mgr Nerissa de Rozario. Has a funny ring to it doesn't it?

Well Boston was a whole different story. I kinda knew what that week was going to look like from the well planned agenda that took weeks to build. It was indeed an INTENSE 4-day week!!! But on the whole it was a great week.

Met up with Bradd a couple of nights to understand more about the new role he keeps bragging about. So here's my problem...(if this is even one to begin with).

I know the role is pretty big but I know I'll work my ass off. Its Marketing and I Love Marketing. And this is definately a HUGE opportunity for me to try working in the States which I've wanted to try for the longest time (besides the fact of going back to Sydney).
BUT (is there really a BUT?)
What am I holding back? I have thought it through and while this is a great opportunity for me, I'm not young anymore and it is not as easy as picking myself up and move across the world as it would have been when I was 25. But then again 30 ain't that bad either right?

Am I just coming up with excuses or am I just guarding myself from a failure I can't afford to have?

Here's a picture of us at Times Square.
