Some thoughts

It's been so long since I last blogged. What a shame. Haha..
Much has happened during the last 2/3 months. I think I am settling in better into the company. Have perhaps lost some of the fire along the way. Perhaps I am also getting accustomed to the way how my company operates.
Been quite an interesting period. I cant believe that I have been working for 6 months now! How time flies. I went from a super blur, worried, scared freshie from university to a slightly more stable, less scared, more smiley leng mui.
Haha..Everyone treats me like a budak. I dun quite mind it actually because with this, comes lower expectations as well. I'm free-er to ask questions, people are more forgiving, though they also trust you less. That's the dillemma I guess. In a period where you want to prove yourself, it's also the period where people trusts you less. Ironic..

Fei has also started working, been 5 months for her now. And Loon too! Two weeks eh? So quick. And Darsh is graduating this year, Wen Li has one more year to go, Laikuan two more...
And oh, Tonghow's graduated too! And Pei yee as well...How quick...

Been quite a lot of emotional and social adjustments..When I at YA, it doesnt quite feel the same now, not only because I am a staff now but also because ..well..my batch's no longer there. The same who started off with me in YP, the gang of FIVE. And I am all about work now. Every single conversation I strike with anyone would be centered to my work. I was just talking to MeiSun the other day and we both realised just how much work-ish has our lives become. I became very intrigued with people's character's in the office...I became more whinny and complain when things get stuck..It just seems like I have so much to tell about my work, the office, and the people in it. And oh, even more, when it seems as if certain people are just there with missions to annoy you. How I wish I could lock them in a closet and push then down a slope. (Children, if you are 18 and below, do not do this at home!)

I love talking about my boss, my bigger boss, my other bosses (So many eh?)..Little matters in the office became juicy bits of gossip. I enjoy running about in the office, attending meetings because it makes me feel I'm busy and important (Silly me, of course!). I enjoy striking conversations with people, especially the elderly. My colleagues told me that I have this somehting with old men! ahah..Ask Loon, she knows why.

But I have also learnt to be thankful to the Lord. I didnt realise how precious God's protection on the road is until I met with an accident last month. I didnt realise how blessed it is to have family until the times when I get so upset at work and my family's just there to listen to my whinning. Who else would take so much interest in your work?! I didnt realise how precious close collegues are until I have eat breakfast alone on some mornings when they went down to site. I didnt realise how wonderful it is to have close friends when with just one phone call, they are there out at the mamak waiting for you to meet up and just talk! Girls need to talk..It's some sort of a therapy for us. Haha..

It just so weird and amazing how distinctly God created us. I was in a very weird conversation with my boss when he actually said men are different, they dun talk. Haha..I laughed out. It's partially true but he has been talking a lot with me..So, he's partial man? Haha..

Work's been fine I guess..(Oh no, here I go again).
Looking forward to meeting Tonghow when he comes back. And Matthew who's coming to visit us in KL. He's a close uni friend from China.

And the family camp coming up in August! From 19-23 August 2007. (Peiling, free publicity here)

Cant wait to go..

Meanwhile, Off to Bukit Kiara now to climb hills..
