summing up...

i think it is time that i should sum up my work life these two and a half years, now that i am moving on to a new chapter in my work life.

Though i have been stagnant these two and a half years, i still feel that it is a route worth traveling. Throughout this journey, i have made some good friends, some friends whom i will really treasure for life. There are also some people whom i wish our paths will never cross again, not that i really hate them so much, just that i think my life will be better off without their presence. It has also made me see the many different sides to a person’s personality. Everyday, its stages plentiful of badmouthing and criticizing scenes behind people’s back, however, there are also heartwarming times when u arrive to the office early in the morning only to find some simple breakfast or gifts on your table.

Work throughout these two and a half years has really been fluctuating. There were times where we really tired ourselves out with all the OTs, but somehow i find them to be quite memorable. On the other hand, there were times where there was simply nothing to do and i just sit there staring at the monitor not knowing what to do. It gets quite depressing after a while and i really dislike this kind of feeling. But I am glad it’s all over now.

One more week to my new job and i really hope to face all the new challenges with a more positive attitude and most importantly, to find back my zest and confidence towards work. Hope that there will be no more complains and things can be much simpler...



Two of my colleagues who have accompanied me through this journey and i would really like to thank them for all that they have done. Think i will definitely miss all the chatting and gossiping sessions with them.


The small working space that i have been facing everyday...



These are the farewell gifts from my colleagues and i really like them, especially the whole set of cds and vcds from my office secretary. Maybe all of you reading this now might find it weird as to why she gave me all these, but it doesn’t matter because i know very well what they meant to her and to me...

Lastly, i would like to share with you this, an extract from the card my colleague gave to me. A set of words that really touches me and i hope that that you will find them meaningful too...

Keep Believing in Yourself and Your Special Dreams

There may be days
when you get up in the morning
and things aren’t the way
you had hoped they would be.
That’s when you have to
tell yourself that things will get better...

There are times when people
disappoint you and let you down,
but those are the times
when you must remind yourself
to trust your own judgements
and opinions,
to keep your life focused on
believing in yourself
and all that you are capable of.

There will be challenges to face
and changes to make in your life,
and it is up to you to accept them.
Constantly keep yourself headed
in the right direction for you.
It may not be easy at times,
but in those times of struggle
you will find a stronger sense
of who you are,
and you will also see yourself
developing into the person
you have always wanted to be.

Life is a journey through time,
filled with many choices;
each of us will experience life
in our own special way.
So when the days come
that are filled with frustration
and unexpected responsibilities,
remember to believe in yourself
and all you want your life to be,
because the challenges and changes
will only help you to find
the dreams that you know
are meant to come true for you
