Its been something that was inevitably coming, but it seems the end is truly now near. I'm torn between feeling sorry and sad and feeling relieved that he does not have to suffer anymore. It was fitting that the last time we were there in April (which seems not that long ago), he seemed to say goodbye. Not that he actually said that, just that the gestures and the eyes did all the talking. I guess that with so many things going good in my life right at this moment, this was something that was lingering and waiting to happen. Maybe this is part of the bigger picture that whoever is out there is controlling, another phase in my life has come along. We can't all live forever :(

Another week has gone. This week has been a steep learning curve for me. I've settled into a new work unit. All is going well so far and I'm learning the 'business' by actually doing it. Its nothing that difficult, but I'm determined to introduce technology to screw... uhh... "improve" the way things happen. All about efficiency and getting value for money.

I saw her last night and we went out for dinner with some of my friends. The restaurant's name was "What's a name?" and well... afterwards, we were thinking what happened to the thing-a-me-jig called service. Absolutely shocking and the worse thing is that we left a tip at the end :( But back to the topic, she should move closer to this side of the city... it takes too long to get back to her place and home again :D

I love the new car smell. I love the way how everything is different and new. Its soooo cool :D So yeah, I got the car finally and all is good. The only thing is that we can't open the window untill tomorrow afternoon because they only got around to tinting the windows today so the film has to "settle" (or something). The other thing was that it was raining tonight <_< so the car will probably be dirty tomorrow already :( Lucky we got the silver (with a hint of copper/gold) so the dirt won't be so obvious ;)

And no Nhu, you're not getting in depth analysis of my relationship. :P I'm seeing her tomorrow night. She's meeting my closest friends (who have already met her, just not as my gf) and it will be a good catch up session. I recently found out one of them is moving to NZ next year (O_o) because he was offered a job there. Man, now we're going to have to fly 3 hours eastwards to see him.

The first day is down... I almost fell asleep about 3pm due to the lack of it last night. I'm not regretting that I have taken this new job but there is a certain feeling in the back of my mind that maybe I have made the wrong decisions. Most of my time working, I have been able to set my own agendas, do my own things and get the work done. There was not that much direct supervision and this is, I believe, what I just cannot stand. Being told to do something is ok, being to told how to do it and treated like a little kid is NOT acceptable. I haven't worked for so many different areas of the organisation because I don't know what I am doing.

On a better note, I've got to say that last weekend was weird. Actually, the whole of last week was weird. But when it is all said and done, I'm glad that some things happened of which the result is that I am no longer single :P

I have never figured out why someone would want to live near noise. In this case a train line where people going past on the train can literally see into your living room and see what you have on TV apart from the bedsheets they have put up in lieu of curtains (more about that later) These apartment/townhouse sort of things are brand new. I've gone and had a look at them. There was no answer from the agent about the vibrations from the train. What sales spin could he give? That its your own massage facility twice every 15 minutes on weekdays during the day, 20 minutes on the weekend? Real estate agents, they are all liars. Ranks at the same level as used car salespeople (politically correct, *sigh*) in terms of ethics :P

Back to the bedsheets as curtains thing, is that just so typically asian? O_o I remember my mum doing that in our old house. These people have had them there for about 3 weeks now. (I check on it daily as I go past on the train twice a day) :P Surely it doesn't take *that* long to get it done. Maybe that is the new look? :D

Found out that I start my new job on Monday, so I get to move desks again. 3rd desk in 3 weeks. Hopefully I get a new computer too with a 17" LCD screen like I have now (wishful thinking) I am also meant to be picking up my new car tomorrow, they said they would call me yesterday when the car go there, but of course no call... so still waiting. :|

I'm back... :D (unfortunately it doesn't work with mozilla, have to change the template later)

OK, so now I don't care who reads this blog. A LOT has happened in the last month since I went on hiatus. Most of it was good, some of it (especially recently) has been very very good. :) One thing is that I finally have a permanent job. Something that has a career prospect and something that I want to do. I'm so happy about that, finally some stability and dependability on one aspect of my life.

I've discovered that some friends are just that, there is something that will keep you from becoming close friends. My closest friends and I have a bond that defines our relationship. It doesn't matter that we may live in different cities, that we don't even talk to each other that often, we can just pick up from where we left off last time. They are always there when you need them, unconditionally.
