Emotionless is Impossible

Recommended Reading: Have you ever been homeless? Read someone's real experience here - The Journey of the Homeless, and give him some encouragements.

If you hear me loudly claim that I'M NOT EMOTIONAL, basically you can gimme a big slap, because:

1. I'm lying, and
2. I'm not accepting myself

Joey (Senior PM), Andrew (PM) and I attended a meeting with client today. When seeing 2 project managers going together, you know it's not a small matter.


Once getting out from the client's office and heading into the lift...

Joey: (looking at me) Ah Lui ar, you have to control your emotion a little bit...

Joey: (looking at Andrew) Same to you ah...

Andrew: Your face was also very red just now.

Joey: Really?

Haan: Sure. You drank a lot of water too.

(We all laughed)

Haan: Basically everyone got annoyed just now. It was reflected on each of us in different ways :)


It's another day with the client, which I'd use the word NASTY to describe all happenings. I did reckon they would have some comments and request for changes. I just didn't expect the change would be so much... and... unreasonable!!

After reaching company and three of us were in the lift, I told Joey, your face is not that red anymore.

She replied, you face is not that dark as well.

We then laughed again.

I read the horoscope today, before the meeting. It says:

There is every chance that you might be feeling a little pressured, as though others are leaning too hard and/or as though a situation has gone toxic. Even if all those things really are happening, the good news is that this feeling bad about it all is not going to last that long, so try to stay strong.

Life is about cycles and this is just a cycle.

I definitely like the last sentence.

This is just a small challenge. More bigger ones keep coming.

I've to learn and make sure I can cope with all of them.


P/S: Ah Lui, in Cantonese, means daughter. Joey sometimes calls me as Ah Lui, sometimes as Ah Jie (sister).
