Reintegration

This is my 5th day after leaving JB and coming home for my new job. Have been in Jb for 6 years, study+ working...somehow it's weird when i know i am coming home for good. Normally i feel excited to be home because i came back home for semester break or holiday...and now, i will be settling down here..not for holiday anymore..
I will say it's not easy to make the final decision to come back home as i have got used to the freedom that i have when i am in JB, less commitment and responsibility;p

I am feeling the misture of excitement and worry. The excitement because i have been missing my parents and my dear so badly, especially for the past 3 months...the worry comes when I need to reintegrate back to the lifestyle here in Kulim....

However, i have no regrets (so far) for my decision as everything is kind of smooth and going the way i forseen:) (except the way the drivers drive here!! damn slow but drive at the fast lane..Bodoh!!)

The new job is good, not that i want to compare to my previous job...but i will say the current job is more focused (not as 'ta chap' as the admin position that i was handling...have to do everything that suddenly thrown to you..eventho it's not within your job scope)..
I am a buyer/planner for my new job. currently having training from my mentor, the buyer lead..focus only on buyer role now..

Besides the integration back home..I am missing my friends in JB...heard that it has been raining continuously due to monsoon...and many places in Johor is flooded...sigh..even the highway..Hope Mr. Sun will come back from holiday soon..to take over the role of Mr. Rain...eventhough they are equally important(as what Ming Eng said)!! Hope i can see the shinny JB on 31st Dec. All the best to my dearesy friends in JB and see you soon...

Touching Farewell

I left JB on 16th December, two weeks earlier than what i have planned.
It was rushing as I got a phonecall on Wednesday evening for the new job offer back home. My manager kindly waive off 2 weeks short notice.
I told my colleages that i am leaving on Saturday..all of them gave the same surprised look...
It's hard to say goodbye to my bunch of good friends in JB, expecially to those i have been working closely for one year..
They are friends who took good care of me, keep me accompanied when i was down, hanging out often for lunch, dinner, movies, yam cha, to even pee break...
I don't want to say good bye to all of them..but jsut want to say "SEE YOU AGAIN".

Thanks for accompanying me, for the helps, tears and laughter and all the memorable moments shared. I am missing all of you. and pls take care and all the best in your future undertakings.

Joyce ~ my mom, a sister who constantly care about me...
Mel ~ a crazy friend who shared lots of sinful+ fattening food with me
Adeline~ my pee break, coffee break, tea break, lunch break companion
Hwee Li~ movie kaki, yam cha, shoppin and mudpie gang:)thanks for your new post!
Ming Eng ~ Roibo girl..violence but sweet friend who gave me "one litre of tears"
Jason ~ will always remember your JJJ 5025...also the froggy in your car
Charlotte~ a crazy girl with sexy voice;p thx for taking care of my hippo

Thanks again for everything that you people have done for me:)

See you again!

Roibo bubble milk tea

whenever i see Roibo bubble milk tea..it will reminds me of her..
She is Ming Eng, Tan...a very funny girl..but a bit violence (like to beat me..and its painful!)
she always drop by in City Square to have high tea with me..whenever she comes back from singapore...hwee li and i always try to get her out, but its not easy..many times, we are rejected by her..just because she wanna watch series at home..sigh..
she is a korean drama freak..thats what she does whenever she has holiday..stick her eyes to the TV/ computer screen for the drama...besides, she is also a shoes freak..she will just buy any shoes if she likes it:) I am going to miss her a lot as i am moving back home soon...happy that she is having holiday now so that i can ask her out more often for tea..let her give her eyes a break;p

November and December

December

1) Several counseling sessions by my managers...after i tender my resignation letter...it's difficult to leave..(I guess i dont have to go thru so many 'interview' when i am getting the job..) it makes me feel a bit "fan" as people are trying their best to convince you to stay..i mean i really appreciate that they want to retain me, but it is just no way for me to stay loh..sigh..

2) Starting to pack my stuff..moving back to home town real soon..end of this month:) waiting for my ah boy to come and fetch me:) busy finding people to take my furniture (study table, rak, coffee table and etc) start to get sick of the soft toys that i am having now..sigh...i will not buy any soft toys anymore!!!

3) Shopping and eating sessions with Hwee Li..a very good companion on shopping:) i bought 3 pairs of shoes in one day..she is not bad also..she got a t-shirt from padini, a heel and a shoes from Theme...went lavender, coffee bean, TGIF, "La Mian Xiao Chu"...food food food..sinful sinful sinful!! may check out her blog: http://hweez.blogspot.com for details of our shopping and eating sessions;p
