it's 345am but i can't bear to let the night slip me by... after 7 weeks into my new job, this is the first weekend i did not bring my work home.. not that i have finished all that needs to be done.. FYI, i just realised a mail was sent to me 2 weeks ago and still pending for my reply in my mailbox.. after fighting fire for so long, i really really need a break... hence, shall leave work to Monday..
my mind is so accustomed to working during weekends that i need to constantly tell myself to keep my mind off work.. subconsciously it will creep back into my mind time and time again.. "Has the shipment been arranged?", "Did i miss out any important mails?".. these questions just kept circulating around my mind.. Gosh, i need some discipline to learn to enjoy my life.. especially on a beautiful & precious weekend like now ...
Some updates on my new work and colleagues, im beginning to interact more with my new colleagues.. learning to know them more.. for the past few weeks, i was too preoccupied with learning my new role that i sort of neglected the social aspect of work... so now, i am making the effort to talk more to them whenever possible.. esp during lunch time.. :) ... among my lunch kakis are 2 thais.. and it is really interesting to listen to them talk in their native language.. their tone of voice is always so accommodating and polite.. and always say "Ka", which i got to know it is a way of acknowledgement when talking to someone... liken to our "yes", "ok", "uh-hmm".... so interesting.. im gonna learn more thai language from them in time to come.. so that i can go Bangkok and bargain for cheaper prices during shopping... =D ... but that is when the airport is back in operation again... aww....
Also, thank God for nice colleagues.. though the learning curve has not been easy, and i am still learning the ropes.. i am grateful that there are helpful colleagues around... and most importantly, thank God for S.A.N.D.Y., my God-send baby and guardian angel who never fail to check on me everyday to see if I have my regular meals and constantly reminding me to take care of my health.. Can't imagine my world without her great patience and longsuffering... She really suffers alot by lending a listening ear to me for the past few years... :)
Talking about the BKK incident, it's just a couple of weeks that i didnt read the news and so many unfortunate things happen... even as most ppl has yet to get over the global recession & retrenchment news, here comes the unrest in BKK and Mumbai..
Media coverage on bad news are so frequent that i'm beginning to feel numb about it... i wonder if you feel so too...
Anyway, i sense that my eyelids are closing in no time.. so i shall pen off here.. Good night, or rather, good morning my frens :)
