I received this chain email from an ex-coll, find some of the quotes quite meaningful...didnt continue to send it out, decided to share it here. I dislike chain msgs...some people just send for the sake of sending. Still remember when I first received a chain letter during my school days, I was so scare that I broke into cold sweat...no joke really! Haa...

Here you go...I deleted last part away...
1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.

2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.

3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.

6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with y our smile.

7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.

9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.

12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.

13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.

REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

True friends: How many people actually have 8 true friends?

Hardly anyone I know ! But some of us have all right friends and good friends!!!

New Work Place

Today mark my first day of work for my 2nd career. Reach office early, waited for HR personnel to show me to my dept. She intro me to her colls. Hmm remembering names on the first day is tough ya. Haa...anyway, just smile and offer handshake. (Oh have to say, some of the names are important, so still have to try and remember as many as I can)...

Colls are friendly...office layout and partition is similar to the previous one...my seat is erm deserted? cos on my left and behind there is nobody. Diagonally there is one but different dept. On my right is J, I cant see her cos of the partition and infront of me is JB (quite a distance away)...anyway heard that J will be seating behind me. Opps to check on me? Hmm...The place has quite a number of foreign employees...JB for eg, he is from Africa...my boss doesnt sound local too...
As you know, Iam so worried, today gonna lunch alone...haa...luckily HR arranged JB to lunch with me...Talk about JB...he is here for a month le...right now, Iam picking up some of the things with him...

THe most fascinating place is the pantry! Haa...for the first time I come across pantry with biscuits/wafer/green/red tea and kopi maker...Ya I know...Iam being sua gu...but I am very excited can...or maybe Iam just 'tan chi' haa...

Received my ex-colls call/msgs...some well wishes...*thank you* some still remember to ask whether I wanna order cookies for CNY *thank yous*...

Last day of work

The final day is here. I dont have any monday blue for the first time! Ha...Iam not saying that I am looking forward to Mon...infact I hope that Mon would not arrive so soon...Went down to head office and had my clearence done...Came back around 5pm and start giving the kuehs, cakes and gifts. Iam glad that they like the cake very much...TOld Loos that I didnt cry today...Not a single drop or teary eyes...Dont know why, dont feel that today is my last day...more like I am going on leave...Maybe its the mindset (as what I mentioned in the previous entry...)Anyway, there is still a chance that we will meet again...no worries SG is so small...

See my 'du du' face...haa


Gifts and cupcakes for colls

2nd last day @ work

Today is my 2nd last day @***. Received Loos msg...she is countdowning with me too...hee...till now...I am still feeling ok...Maybe cos keep telling myself, I am going on looonnnggg leave...so that I wouldnt cry on my last day?

Supposed to have lunch with Mel (you gals still remember the man that gave me a wallet?) Ya, its him. It was postponed to Monday. Bumped into him at the lift lobby while on my way for lunch with my colleagues. He gave me a hug! I was quite embarass and didnt know how to react...(Before that LE already told me that he wanted to give me hug but we just laugh it off as thought that meant to be a joke...but...)hur hur...*sad*

Started bringing my stuffs back since Thursday...and its lying in one corner of my room...lazy to unpack...haa...anyway its not important...few softtoys...ad cards...mirror...basket...photo frames...I decided not put these things in new office...it will be purely work station and nothing else...hmm then again putting a few photos should be ok right?

No turning back...only looking forward

From the day I have been offered a job at another company, deciding whether to tender, the day that I finally tendered, went for exit interview and farewell lunch today...everything seems to happen so fast! I am leaving the company which I have been working for 9 years, 4 months and 13 days. Never come across my mind that this day would actually happen...Cos I have been job searching for years...(hmm on and off...)

Exit interview was a fast one, cos I dont have any feedback to give...Haa...Oh ya, lunch was a great one...We went as a group of 12...It will never be the same again...*sad* Boss asked me to give a speech, but I dont want...The other coll mentioned that cos I will cry in the middle of speech...Everybody seems like wanting to see me cry...*sad* One of my coll even got teary eyes le...haiz...*sad* Cant imagine what would be like on the last day...They say they will be staying at home...hur hur...*sad*
