The feeling finally came at 4pm on my last day.. The feeling that I'll miss everything in Senoko.. Haha..
Of farewells~
还是从小就学会的那句话： 天下无不散之筵席
One of the better romance movies, in my opinion.
有感动到我~
Although the ending wasn't meant to be sad, it is very saddening from my point of view.. And considering it's a true story, i would be really sad if i'm in that situation.
At least this movie is much better than.. hunger games.. I left the cinema feeling nauseous -.- Lol!
辞职的感觉..........真好!
In fact I feel that I'm going to retire in 1 week's time instead of changing a job! Haha!
Whenever people ask me to do things that I don't like to do, I'll tell myself it's the last time i need to do this.
Whenever people see me nowadays, they will talk to me more than usual bcos I'm leaving soon.
每天轻轻松松聊天过日子的感觉真爽~
I know i'll miss my freedom in future..
My last week is filled with farewell lunches/dinners,
--
Since I've got 4 days before the start of my new job.. Vietnam trip booked! My 4th trip this year~ But after this, not sure how long I must wait before my next holiday.. haha
And my new camera bought~
I finally threw THE LETTER today. Phew! I thought April will never come.. March was unbearably long..
曾经对我好的人，我一辈子都不会忘记。
Just 3 more weeks.. To embarking on a new career..
Although i see alot of uncertainties ahead, I'm still looking forward to it.
Moving over to an env company, to do something which is not env related at all. What an irony. Lol..
On a side note, I did feel a little guilty after throwing the letter.
Senoko D&D 2012
My first.. and last D&D with Senoko at Fairmont Hotel. Haha.. Donna Daniels was quite good, so was Kumar whom we spent on for an expensive 30 mins entertainment.
Nonetheless, my chairman of the D&D Committee won the 7th prize! Which was $1000 Best Denki vouchers~ And he kindly shared it with the 10 committee members! Now I can buy a digi cam with a little bit of subsidy.. lol..
HK & Macau [020312 - 060312]
So much for expecting very cold weather in hk.. it ended up to be not that cold. Lol.. it was only cold 2 out of the 5 days we were there.. nonetheless, still so much better than sg. haha
It wasn't like this the previous few times when I was in hk.. but this time round, it's so obvious that ATs invaded hk =( Stupid, irritating and barbaric ATs.. ARGH. Can't they just stay in their own country? No one needs them in hk AND sg. Seriously cannot stand their behaviour.. Disgusted!
Other than being disgusted with them, it was a wonderful trip again! I LOVE HK! Hahaa.. And this is the first time i spent every single cent i brought there and even signed my credit card.. It was a mad eat-and-shop trip!
Day 1 [020312]
Dim sum at a random place after we check-in early in the morning; Big buddha
Cable car was closed for maintenance.. So this is the first time I took a bus up instead. And due to the lack of sleep the prev night on the plane, we had a good sleep on the bus! Nothing much changed there (My 3rd time there liao -.-) Even the food tasted the same.. Lol
Hee Kee Crab for dinner; Ferry ride from Central to TST
Met up with tiff for dinner, at her recommended Hee Kee Crabs for 避风塘炒辣蟹. It was GREAT! Although it's expensive, but it's worth it~ After that we went to central and took the ferry back to TST (when she realised i had never taken it before after so many times in hk lol!) and enjoyed the night view of hk.
Day 2 - Macau [030312]
Venetian; City of Dreams; Margaret's Cafe e Nata; Senado Square; Ruins of St Paul; Wynn Casino
Didn't really explored Macau the previous time I was there (SH: I rem the heavy rain which spoiled our day..), so I made careful planning this time round to ensure we covered what we should in 1 day. Was glad that time fitted well in the end and we visited all the places planned!
The Dragon's Treasure show at City of Dreams was good, although it made our necks ache after that.. Lol. Also deliberately went to look for the very famous egg tarts at Margaret's Cafe, it was hot and fresh from the oven, nice! Senado Square was super packed on a sat afternoon.. And the night view at Wynn was superb! We even played the jackpot machine at the casino since we had some time before taking the ferry back.
Finally seen all that I wanted to see in Macau this time round, guess I wouldn't visit Macau for quite some time alr.. Haha..
Ate KFC at night.. (I think i forgot to take pics haha) It was much nicer and cheaper than sg's. They have the 避风塘 chicken.. I think we are addicted to the 避风塘 flavour after the crab! LOL!
Day 3 [040312]
Day 4 [050312]
Ocean Park
My 2nd time to Ocean Park and I was very disappointed. I rem the previous time there were many special exhibits like Ice Age and Dinosaurs.. But this time round there was none! Zzz.. Managed to catch the dolphin show.. And had 2 bumper car rides.. Haha.. Don't know how many years never play bumper car already!
Went to Jordan for the dim sum which I found during the prev visit, just to find that it has changed hands and is no longer selling dim sum. But it was a blessing in disguise~ We found another dim sum shop down the road and they have the amazing 奶黄流沙包! The egg yolk taste in it is soooooo yummy~ Missing it alr......
Day 5 [060312]
Went for our breakfast and last min shopping for food items before leaving hk.. Ate at Tsui Wah Concept in Mong Kok for the first time and their breakfast was good. Portion was very big too. And that's our last xu liu shan in the afternoon.. cannot really be bothered to take pics of xu liu shan items anymore bcos i almost finish trying all the varieties already.. Lol! Only took this pic on the last day but we actually had it every single day there.. Haha!
Bye hk.. Give me 2 to 3 years' time, I'll be back to see you again =)
Just read a friend's blog post and it got me thinking..
Expectations.. Is really a scary thing in a way. It gives you some motivation and direction, but it's also a major source of disappointment.
Since young I have high expectations of myself. To things, it's either i cannot be bothered to do it at all, or i'll give my best in it.
If it's things within my control, i'll definitely work hard to get it. But as you grow up, you will realise there are some things which you can't control.. and that left me empty and lost. No matter how hard you try, you might never be as good as others. No matter how hard you try, other people may get it without much effort while you still get nothing in the end.
I've been keeping myself very busy for the first 2 and a half months of 2012. With birthday and CNY in January, as well as 3 overseas trips (although it's all neighbouring countries, but i still consider them as holidays) in 3 months. Other than that, I'm thankful to have passed my driving test (which is really consuming not only time but also alot of money) and the last of the good news I'm waiting for, came when I was in hk. Things seems to be quite positive in 2012 so far, but I know somewhere inside, is hoping for something which is out of my control.
Looking at how other people handles some situations, it's easy to say that this is certainly something you wouldn't decide on. But when it happens to you one day, it's really a different story. Sometimes i hate the irrational me, but i know, i will still follow the irrational decisions.
Because I've decided that I'm going to work hard for myself, to get things that i've wanted so badly.
