Thanksgiving

on 26th July, I wrote this about plans in 2016:

I am excited because of the possibility of attending Hillsong 2016, and then travelling to Canada with the pie pie to meet her family and travel around. I was thinking of spending another 3- 4 weeks around Canada to read, write and seek God's plan for the next phase of my life. Perhaps also to compile a book of the insights of a christian lesbian blogger. :p

As usual, plans won't be certain until closer to the date. In the meantime, there are so many opened doors. MOE international school in Hk (my cousin got connections with the P), Shanghai International School (I got to resign for this job but my ex-classmate was looking for PE teachers), submitting my thesis as a journal paper (my supervisor texted me to ask if I wanted to), becoming an Art Consultant in my friend's to be Art Gallery (she will coach me on all those artistic bullshit so she said), my ex- P telling me to look for her if she's not retired (so she can hire me as a flexi-adjunct teacher)... taxi driving, waitressing, petrol attendant... going to bible school... the possibilities are endless :p

Looking for the break to seek God on what's next.


On 5th October, this is my thanksgiving: My P has agreed to a 3-month no-pay leave during the period July-Sept 2016 with the option of extending if I need!!

Of course, nothing is confirmed until the application is approved. But I am pretty stoked about the high possibility that Hillsong 2016 is really going to happen after 12 years of waiting. Super stoked. I think it's a good start to my retreat/sabbatical. It's great that I do not have to resign, and I will not be bonded in any way after my leave period, and after working for another 6 weeks, I get paid during the Nov/Dec holidays again. It's great that I do not have to save as much as projected before.

More about plans to come once things are clearer. Woot!
