Has been awhile

Has been awhile since I last blog. Perhaps I am not expressive with words by nature.

Nothing much changes, am still working as an Operations Executive. Was presented with an opportunity to change this from Operations Executive to Operations Manager. A part of me wants this change yet I am afraid I am not up to it. Nevertheless, I am sending in my resume. I think my limit of torance for my current boss is wearing thin. She just too hard up on certain issues which I think are too minor for me to even be bothered with.

Hope things goes well. ;)

Close call

Just came back from a dive trip in Malaysia. There were some issues prior to this dive trip, however, I still end up going for it. I was going there with the following purposes: to get away for awhile and to test out my new Canon housing. Diving was expected to be very much on your own. Buddies were not assigned. Even if it was assigned, I doubt it made any differences because the visibility was terrible. The maximum distance I can see was about 5m. A turn of your head will made you loss sight of your buddy (if any).

During the first dive of the 2nd day, I brought 2 cameras down to test the difference of quality between Lumix and Canon. It wasn't a very bright idea. When I was left with 50 bars of air and had decided to ascend for safety stop, I realised I dropped my brand new Canon camera. Panic sets in, I must find the camera was the only thing I can think of. Huge relief when I saw the camera laying on the seabed. I grabbed the camera and to my horror, I was left with 10 bars of air. I got no choice but to ascend quickly. My dive computer beeps asking me to slow my ascending rate down. Sucking as hard as I can to draw whatever left in the tank and making my way up. At 3m depth, NO air comes out from the tank. I make a dash for it and managed to pop up to the surface before my lungs went empty.

Close call and luckily I made it this time. Have to be extra careful in future, don't think I am that lucky all the time.

Complicated Relationships

Most complicated issue to handle when we come to age - Relationships! Why is it so complicated!

February should be a good month because usually it's around Chinese New Year where you get to eat and eat and collect ang bao, there's Valentine's Day (where love SUPPOSED to be shown/make) and my birthday falls in the same month. This year, I don't like February at all, in fact, I kind of hated it!

I treasure friends a lot and always treat them well with all my heart. Unless you did something drastically wrong to me or you obviously showed me you don't want to be my friend, I will NOT delete you from my list of friends. How other wants to maintain their list is not up to me but I am sure to feel hurt if I am on the receiving end, especially from someone close. I can tell you, that feeling sucks!!

Friends wanted to organise a birthday parties for me but I felt that it's more of wanting an excuse for party. I am perfectly fine with the idea of using my name as an excuse to party for I am more than happy to get together with friends to chill out BUT please don't get upset if you don't get invited because I limit it to a small group. I welcome anyone. Just because you are not invited for this time round don't mean you are not my friend. All friends are equal to me with some being more important.

In future if I want a party, I'll organise it. If you don't get my invitation, sorry, it's not that you are not my friend. Is most likely I am just getting old, forgetting things, not able to party as much as I like to. Of course, unless you find me unworthy. Please NO MORE birthday party in my name. Just make it a house party and celebrate whatever event that happens.

October sucks!

Its a horrible October man! Nothing seems to go right. It's just the beginning of it and I am hating it. Nothing seems to go right. I feel some much wanting to get out of here.

I supposed to be happy because I am having my convocation on the 16th, yet I don't seems to be looking forward to it except for the fact that I took a day off on that day.

Put on standby

I remember me blogging about being the last fiddle to some friends. Unknown to me, I might very much doing the same to others.

Frankly, I tried hard not to do that as I know how bad it feels having being put on 'standby' by others. However, sometimes perhaps I tried too hard meet up with every friends as much as I can and unknowingly screwed up their own plans having to wait for me to confirm my time of meeting them.

I starting to say 'NO' to more people these days. Not by choice at times as the new job really takes up quite a bit of my time. Past 2 Saturdays, I only managed to get off work at 5pm. I don't think I have any mood to go out at 5pm on Saturday dressed in my office shirt and pants.

Oh well... learning is a never ending process.

闭关修练

Have not blog for awhile. Have been busy with new job. Sure feels and sees the difference from a IT prostitute to middle management. Immediate boss wasn't exactly someone I wanted to work with but still okay lah, no matter what, she's better than my ex boss. Doing operations sure is not easy, everyday got so much to take care of and there are tons of meetings to attend. I don't like meetings :(

Nothing much happens beside suay suay kenna one harassment from some weirdo but finally was managed to get rid of her.  

Now am on leave to prepare for my FINAL exams. After 3.5 years, I finally see some light at the end of the tunnel. I can finally get my degree and stop studying. NO more studying for me, at least those course that is going to take years to complete one. Short courses still okay.

Good luck for my exams and I will update again with my new job.
