Next chapter of my life begins with a new career. I am finally ending my 7 years with the very first permanent job. I am happy to move on but sad at the same time. Why? There were many memories in the current company. It was a place where i grew up. I turned 21, got married and had my first child there. Sentimental i guessed. I'm that sort of person who would feel sad if i have to throw away something that i kept for very long. Be it a pen, a pencil case or a bookmark. It hurts.
Now i'm not throwing my stationaries away. I'm 'throwing' my beloved colleagues away from my everyday life, where we exchanged funny incidents either with husband, kids or boyfriends. Those were my motivation for work everyday. There are still many forms of communication to stay connected. But nothing beats first hand info, face to face, heart to heart chats. I will miss those. The bitching n gossiping too! =( Not sure if office politics will arise in my new workplace. It's still a big question mark.
Upon embarkment onto my new career, i still need to leave my husband and son in Sg for 18 days, for training. Ever since my son is born, i nv sleep a day without him, never. To think that he is going 18 days mummy-less, my heart aches. Can he cope? Can Yida handle? Will he find his mama before he sleeps? Sob...
My right knee hurts now. Metaphysically means i dare not step forward. It is so true. I'm half heartedly glad that the golden opportunity strikes, while worried that i will have lesser time with my child and pets. All of them are already compromising.
Not sure what's ahead of me but it is smelling good. Hope the sacrifices i made is worth while. Nevertheless, thank you for being my colleague, friend and confidant for so many years. You know who you are. I will make sure i organise a meet up every 3 months or so!

Parting is such sweet sorrow. Thanks for being a confidante and friend too! Our relationship as colleague may end here, but not our friendship. Anything to biatch, update, complain, rant, rejoice - just sms or msn.
Yes! I'm sure my 500 sms is enough for you while others can WA me! =)
