~ Affected Today ~

Deeply Emotionally Affected today... I dunno why... Shouldn't be this way but it happens...
A person has 2 faces - kind by nature and also evil thoughts that haboured in one's heart. One can be viewed by the others as the kindest or most gentle or harmless or selfless person.. but behind the scene, one will have the most evil thoughts and also things they wish they never had thought of. One could preach in front of the others about 1 principal rule, but behind the people, the rule could be overruled. Why? Jealous, Ambitious, Low confidence, Pride and many other factors, may make a person lose self-control, and force the other inner self to expose. Many a times, we had tried to be perfect or be truthful... but how many times or how much are we really showing our true self to the others?? Why do we hide the true feelings? Is it becos to protect those we loved, or to protect ourselves? I don't know... but usually more to protect ourselves.
I was confiding to a good girlfriend of mine... asking her why do things happen this way... some behaviours that I had always condemned had actually surfaced and reflected on me... I couldn't believe that I am actually such a 'bad' person.. but when things turn out to be this way, I had really nothing to say.. Maybe I was too early to conclude some things, maybe I am too impatient...
Well, TIME is always the best healing medicine.. I am not sure to agree or not, as I am not a person who easily forgets. But I do hope, I was just a think-a-lot person. As time passes, everything will be back as normal...........

Finally, into a new environment.. new place and new colleagues... Guess what? My new work place is actually at #24 floor, but the next thing I know, I will be working at #13 floor again... Why do I say again, becos in my previous workplace, I was working at #13 floor too... Haha... so 'qiao' right... I can buy 4D liao... 1313 maybe?? kekekee...
Working at Tanjong Pagar, first thing to get used to is the crowds... Morning crowd, lunch crowd and going-home crowd... Ppl everywhere... See liao until I headache ah.. When I was working in SingTel, everytime take MRT passed by Tanjong Pagar, I said to myself : This is like HELL... SOOOooooooooo Many people everyday, how to get thru' these pools of people.. And know, here I am, being part of this crowd.
Talking about my work scope, hrmm.... I had nothing much to say lar... ;p

~Taipei Taipei~

Woah WOAH.... It has been a great trip to Taipei with my good buddy.. Imagine being good friends with her for the past 1 decade, this is the first time I ever been out travelling out with her...
This trip to Taipei has been rather fulfilling. The 2 of us, being adventuours and sporty, we went out trying to explore every little possible corner we could, been to 4 night markets, practically one every day, and tried hotspring at Beitou - but more to a mosquito-feeding session to me.. just a short 15mins, both of us kena bitten everywhere... Then we also have been eating from morning till night time, although not non-stop, but quite scary lar.. Even try the authentic Ding Tai Feng that is originated from Taiwan, but the standards are quite the same lar...
Food from Ding Tai Feng
And guess what, when we were there the 2nd day, we encountered their Typhoon called "Long Wang" - Dragon King. It was the third typhoon that Taiwan encountered this year and was blown from HuaLian. Poor HuaLian, the place was quite ruined. The typhoon arrived on the 2-Oct night time, but left the next day. We were quite scared that the typhoon would ruin our day, but it went off quickly, and we continued our journey the next day. The weather was still quite unpredictable, occassional rains and also sudden winds, almost blew me and geok away, but was pretty interesting to experience that. (lucky not being blown away, ~heng ah~)
Then we met geok's fren in Taipei, and we went to DanShui, took a boat to another island opposite DanShui, and then we went to the TongHua night market (but not as good as HuaXi or Shilin night market), then also to their fashion wholesale place. This place is where there are tonssssss of stalls selling similiar stuff, and their prices are supposed to be cheapest, as they are the source. And then, after that, we still managed to grab some deserts - Mango Ice... slurp slurp.. Nice siah...

Delicious Desert - with mango, kiwi and strawberry! And of course, 1 BIG scope of MANGO ice-creamm... Cool!!


5D4N - seems long yet short... anyway, is fun to explore on ur own with frens..

I will recommend Royal Castle Hotel, consider a not bad hotel, near Ximenting square and within budget.

Cheerios! ;)

~Mixed Feelings~

Well Well... Times really fly...
6 years of "slogging" in my previous company and suddenly I am going to step into a new environment. Actually I had seen many of my good colleagues and frenz moving on to another stage of their career path, and this is an inevitable move. But I do miss my current working colleagues and the familiar environment. I do feel a need to move on but at the same time - feeling afraid.
Anyway, I just hope everything will turn out just as fine as I hope for :)
My last day at SingTel has been so busy - busy with me handing over my job tasks, taking photos with my colleagues, saying goodbyes and farewells... Surprisingly, when some asked me whether I am feeling, I felt Nothing! Not sure if I am slow in reacting or what, or I had been waiting for this moment for a long time... hahaha~ I really don't know.. maybe I was too busy to feel anything...


Some of my photos with my dear colleagues...
Me and my manager for 5 years.... handsome guy rite.. heehee~
Me and me 2 colleagues going KTV after work...
One last glance at my workplace.. Sob Sob Sob.. Sayonara!!!
