Wednesday, July 26, 2006 My best mate in the office has officially resigned today, to be an insurance agent. She has been my best friend in the office and cuz both of us joined the company on the same day and hit if off on the 1st day, naturally, I'm feeling a little sad that she's leaving the company.No more lunch kaki, one less person to share gossips, work woes, frustrations, achievements, happiness and BGR problems with.....But still I wish her all the best. Sharon (my best mate cum colleague) & Me at Marina Mandarin  It is working with great colleagues that make work more bearable. Afterall, we spent more hours in the office than at home with our family/friends. In fact, I find colleagues the most important attribute to a good working environment, next come bosses, then the job itself. No one can work alone, unless you prefer to be a hermit. I'm thankful that for all my past jobs (well, except for one), that all my colleagues have been great. And it is such times that make leaving a company hard. As cliche as it is, I believe everything happens for a reason & one things lead to another. And God does have a plan for everyone, believe it or not. Like if I had not work in the 'orange company' before, I wouldn't have known my 'calling' is in the Customer Service line and most importantly, I wouldn't have met so many nice colleagues who have now become my friends and the wonderful moments we had. And if I hadn't work here in my current workplace, I may not have gotten out of my previous relationship and get to know someone new. And if I hadn't broken off with my ex-ex boyfriend, I wouldn't have learnt what a lousy girlfriend I was and it is also through my last relationship that I really learnt who I am, my strengths & weaknesses. And through each relationship, I grow more mature and become a better person. I guess this has also got to do with my faith. Didn't use to be such a good Catholic (not that I am really now) but somehow I have grown stronger in my faith in recent years and that closeness to God has make me realise I need to become a better person. Friday, July 21, 2006 Am down with flu & cough.....hope I'll get well soon. The medicine's making me feel very drowsy at work. Feel like going to the toilet to take a nap, hehee.Anyhow, on Wed morning while I was taking the train to work , something 'interesting' or 'disturbing' (depending on how u see it) happened in the train. From about a distance away, a commotion broke out and fellow passengers like myself turned to look. There were two women fighting with each other, while one of them was trying to alight. They were pulling here & there.....aiyo, what a sight! Obscenities were shouted, gestures shown, etc. As the Chinese would say "mei you xing xiang". One of the "sampat" woman was even trying to hit on the Emergency button to stop the train from moving off the station! Really stupid lor, for such a trivial matter need to get so agitated meh? And luckily, the emergency button didn't work somehow or else it will cause delay for the rest of the commuters. And I'll get mad cuz I am already getting late for work..... Else, I think I'll also join in and "humtum" that sampat woman, hahaa! Monday, July 17, 2006 Love can bring one to the higher of highs but also can drop one into the lowest of lows.Being in a relationship can bring one joy but also pain, which single people may not experience. But singlehood also brings in itself another sets of emotions and experience. I believe one shouldn't envy others for what they have or have not cuz everyone has their own set of problems. Hell, sometimes I don't even know what I want anymore. Wednesday, July 12, 2006 Last week, my mum has gone over to France to stay with my sis for the next 5 months...which means I'm home alone.Well not exactly home alone cuz I've temporarily 'shifted' to my boyfriend's place. At least there'll be home-cooked food to eat. His parents are really sweet to let me move in while my mom's away. And every morning, breakfast is prepared and his mom will also prepare it in a lunch box for me to take to the office, hehee. I feel so pampered but at the same, felt abit 'paisay'. Anyway, I hope my mom's adjusting well to the life in France. Maybe because I'm in Singapore, I don't feel much difference, except that it's abit weird not having my mom around the house to take care of me, hehee. This is also a good time for me to learn to be more independent. To handle my own laundry & chores that I don't do (i.e. wash the toilets, toilet walls - hell, I don't even know toilet walls have to be scrubbed!). On another note, World Cup has ended and I watched the final on Monday morning. And Zidane's headbutt incident is the talk of the WC town. I felt sorry for him....to have leave international football in such a shame. But then, that's the beauty of the game....anything can happen. And afterall, soccer players are humans too. p/s: i've noticed lately in my blogs i'm having a more upbeat mood (which is good of course) and had inadvertently kept mentioning about the new man in my life....given that i'm still in a sort-of honeymoon period. but i have to make it a point not to over-indulge in this habit cuz my life just don't revolves around michael, me & michael, michael & me (haha)...so bear with me for awhile more.... :O) |
