Yeah i know it’s been awhile since I last updated this space of mine.
Been busy with wrk and all ever since my return frm Shanghai.
So if i didnt reply some of the sms or return calls, 95% is due to i'm at wrk hence the inconvenience.
Hee but all has been good so far.
Recently our Head of Dept just gave out our letters abt our increment n bonus.
Wasnt fantastic but satisfied enough to make me reconsider if i shld stay on.
Esp aft talking to the HOD and giving him my most honest feedback on how i felt abt my job.
I was telling him abt my opinion of a good leader and sharing some of my encounters n fear i had when i was a newbie.
And my team leader is definitely someone worth mentioning.
For being approcable and shielding me frm some shiet tat i almost gt slapped on smtimes.
I'm glad to be in her team.
And yea praises and encouragement do wonders too.
The person who did these wonders is none other than my darling Boyfriend.
He has always been the one to listen to me patiently ranting abt my job n smtimes talk some great sense into me despite the physical abscence.
Hence tat motivated me to do better and my wrk performance did pick up.
So, i've been wrking hard recently coz the drive is there.
Last night b4 i log off frm wrk, double check to ensure that my out-of-office msg has been activated and urgent cases has been passed on to my buddies to follow up.
All bcoz i'll be away to Japan for a week. (yay holiday again!)
Haha yea if u haven knw (coz i didnt have the chance to tell u abt it), i'll be travelling to Hokkaido tonight and back on Sunday.
Heard that it is a beautiful plc, hence i'm quite excited.
Back frm Shanghai, back to home sweet home, back to work.
The sight of seeing Boyfriend with the roses in his hands waiting for me at the arrival gantry when i reached Pudong Airport was a strong heartfelt of touched and relief within me.
You knw, prior to the trip, I had visualise how this 12 day break would be like and hoping that this break wld do the emo-moody-me some good.
A pity, Boyfriend still had quite a bit of wrk to do even though he is alrdy on leave.
So he didnt really had any gd rest, unlike me, since all his free time wld be bringing me out.
Shanghai was snowing.
It got me excited since is my very first time seeing snow, feeling snow on my hands.
If u take a close up, the snowflakes are really pretty.
Haha but as days go by, it gets colder till i dun really feel like stepping out of the apartment.
Basically there isnt much to shop, did some sight seeing and even went to their club Attica.
Hmm i tink is better than zouk. Lol
Oh and we ate a lot.
Frm roadside hawkers to fine dining in posh restaurants and chilling at their bars.
Sweet Boyfriend has make it a point to share all these interesting places he went before and let me try all kinds of food, including their strong alcoholic drinks which pple over there like to drink to keep themselves warm.
Thanks Darling, for all the little things u did for me this cold winter that make me felt v loved by you!
**********************
Instead of saying is a trip of discover Shanghai, i tink it wld be more apt to say is 'Discover Liyun'.
Meeting Boyfriend, his colleagues, his housemates and those few NOC pple..
Every encounter seemed to have etched in my memory how i felt then during those instances and made me reflected silently.
Juz back frm suntec. Actually not really tat crowded for a sunday. Did some winter wear shopping at cw. Thanks to A, let me save quite a lot frm the staff discount.
The shop space have expanded quite a bit since the gd old days when i part timed there. I spent 2 hrs there trying n trying.. wif all the jackets, sweaters, gloves n scarf.. A bit cant make up my mind on the colour n designs. Hahaha. Hence created quite a mess for the staff to tidy.. Hee..
Actually my size kinda tough to buy coz adult sizes is like quite big for me then kids size muz see if their largest size is too small for me anot.
Haha like many other frens of mine, A says i shld eat more coz i'm like so thin nw.
I'm tryin to gain some weight but i guess it takes time.
And i dun really fancy having frequent suppers coz i wan to gain weight in a healthy way.
