Just an hour ago, I have uploaded my VIP report 2, 2 whole weeks after my internship ended. Its a nice conclusion, and I can say my final goodbye to the company and colleagues. Technically, we are called friends now. I have to repeat and emphasise how lucky I am that they were all very nice and helpful towards me. Despite having left for quite some time, Julie still helped me get the clearance form and log sheet signed immediately after I emailed her that SY has cleared yf's report. Some people might find it a chore. I have left. She could have told me to go back and get it signed. There have been stories, reputations, take it as it is, but I never ever deny the fact that they have been really really nice to me. Even if its just to me. For that, Im grateful. This part of my life, now termed as history, has made me grown, character and strength. I appreciate it all the more, looking back. And I sincerely hope that they too, will recall fondly the memories that we had, working together, chit chatting, laughing.
Im amazed and still am, at how fast time flies, how things could change so rapidly. I am 2wks into my new job. 2wks is a short time. 2wks is a long time. Its relativity. I have 2wks and 3 days left of my work in Tiong Woon Oil and Gas. Yes, meaning that Im already half done. Already gotten used to the company over there and suddenly, the first 2 wks of my internship became a blur. I distinctly remembered the first 3 days but the subsequent events just slipped away. How quickly. What I know, was the result. 2wks and I was already very close to my ex-colleagues. But memories are like water. You retain some but you can never stop it from leaving you.
I read something on a junior's blog. Its about how one can not survive on purely memories. And I thought that is very true. Im someone who likes to dwell on memories. I never deny that sometimes, I like to live in the past. But the fact is that feelings fade, memories get forgotten. Just like how photographs turns yellow, how iron rust, how letters oxidise in the air. Memories need to be refreshed. New memories have to be added. And therefore, friendship have to be maintained.
Moving on to the lighter stuff. I never did really mention what a mess my house and my life was in last week. Glad and sl. Thanks for spending time listening to me. I was just so tired.
And to mention, I was out with friends from BioBiz last week and we ate at Soup Spoon. Its Hui Min, pj, gq and jl. It took quite a while for us to finalise the plans for the mini gathering. Im sorry that during my internship, I did not really make time for meeting up. Luckily u guys never gave up on me=) I think I like Soup Spoon. Had Tokyo Chicken (soup), Terriyaki Fish Sandwich and Ice Lemon Tea for dinner. Seriously, the soup itself would have suffice as dinner. Im not sure how the rest felt, but certainly, my soup was nice. That was at Raffles City.
Coincidentally, ALL my gatherings recently will be held at cityhall. I have no idea why but I don't really mind! Yesterday, met Lily and Lina for dinner. A year had passed since I did my 3 wks temp job at Tesco Singapore. haha.. aren't you all amazed that we still keep in touch?! I have never even worked with Lina. She came for the interview when I was there and joined when I left. But, they remember everything said during the last meet up near last Christmas. They remembered that Im going on exchange. They remembered to sms me when they havent heard from me for a long time. They remembered to ask me out for dinner so that we can meet up before I leave. I love the shawl and I love the dinner at Bishanan (Jap food Raffles City B1) and I love the company. Thanks for the treat! I really do appreciate having friends=) Have I ever mentioned that looking at people with a bright and ready smile has always been refreshing for me? And of course, I'll let you both know when Im back. 
Dinnered with mom at Ling Zhi, a vegetarian restaurant at Novena. My treat~ Not bad. I would like to drink the soup again=p And yes. This whole post is about eating eating and eating! whoa. I didn't realise how much time I had spent on food until I listed them out!
Secrets are harsh on the heart. Its bad for health. haha.. something kept secret makes it matter alot more. And once its out, Im surprised at how much lighter I felt. How I THINK I am able to start moving on. The brains is reining in and the heart trying to follow.
It became abit weird that just these 2 wks, many many many people are telling me about romance, romance and more romance! All the 'u can choose not to like me but u cant stop me from liking u', 'if you don't like a person, you have to run in the opposite direction to prevent giving false hope', 'its all fated, what is yours is yours', 'past present future', 'do u think character or intelligience is more important in a guy', ... ... Love cannot be forced. I believe that it must be mutual. 爱人痛苦，还是被爱痛苦？如果你爱着不爱你的人，或是被你不爱的人爱着，是不是也该是时候放手了? Well, fren. think about it.
Did I mentioned that Im doing my second Ballroom dancing course at Dancesport de Allan now? Learning with glad. Paso Doble, this bull-fighting dance. Its weird, but yup. No smiling required. You stare! So anyone in mood for a little fight should attend. Highly recommended=) It was a tough decision to join. Its ending right before I leave. Its on sunday and its against my mother's wishes. But well. Im still there! haha.. A break from normal working routine is always welcomed. And I have almost told the world that, nope, im not joining. NO. IM NOT JOINING and glad had to sms me the night before and ask me: hey, are we gg for dance tmr? Darn. And I started re-considering the entire thing again, and shifted my tuition, and told my parents. haha.. and first lesson, Pei Juan literally screamed when she saw me there! haha.. it was super funny. She SCREAMed: 你为什么在这边？！and then she grabbed my shoulders. haha.. so happy to see me arh? Then, the next week, as usual, I went over after my tuition. yf's back from Msia. And he stared. Its really not nice to stare can. Im not like some alien or ET, neither did I teleport nor appeared from underground. haha.. 'Im just surprised to see lazy people there'. hmpf. For the record, I did not step on anyone else. What I did, was to step on my OWN TOES. OUCH~~~ daniel said: 'well, at least you didn't step on SOMEONE ELSE'. True. Lucky guys in the studio.
Its exactly a month from now. I really wonder if it'll make a difference to anyone. Its complicated on my part.
p.s. I realised that I one full year of working experience already! I really work too much.
