Revolves around a sparkling world of small to big things that happen and love sharing the way I think with the people who are in my life. I believe laughter and eating yummy desserts is the best tool for stress relief.

Back to work in less than 1.5 weeks
Arrgg.. times going by so quickly, I feel like there's still a tonne of things I want to do before I start work. Like..
1. Clean & tidy my room
2. Stay at home & wait for the delivery of my other 3 parcels
3. Read the Financial Review ASAP
4. Read up on new pension/super rules + revision on insurance
5. Start digging out my work clothes... perhaps some ironing as well..and making room for the other 3 parcels
6. I really really wanted to go to a day spa... have a nice massage & body wrap...
7. Still haven't had the chance to darken my tan... want to go to the beach again on a nice sunny day and bathe in the sun =)
8. Vacumn & wash my car.. and try to fix the windscreen wiper
9. Need to visit Penny at least a couple more times before I start work
10. Join the gym? or yoga? climbing ? or kickboxing?
11. Get my photos developed. (I was told that photo's burnt on discs are not reliable and they won't last more than 7 years.) My usb has been sitting here for at LEAST 5 weeks..
12. mm.. i know there's more but I can't think of it right now.. still people i want to catch up with, still people i still need to visit..
nnoo....I wish I had a longer break.. hehee =)

Feeling a little sad...
Last night I met up with a very good friend of mine for drinks. He left Sydney this morning. I've known this friend for around 3 years, during these 3 years, we've built a very solid and close friendship.
Saying goodbye was hard. Saying good luck and wishing him all the best was even harder. I'm sure that he knows that I wish him the best from the bottom of my heart. I know he will be very successful wherever he goes. I know he will be more happier to where he is going as this is where his family is.
In the past years, despite working & relationships, we've managed to get together on a regular basis, organising steam boats, parties for different occasions, playing badmington on weekends and dinners. Today, I felt a touch of sadness that this really good friend is now starting a new life away from Sydney.
We will no longer be able to catch up and chat on the phone like the way we used to. Thank goodness there's msn. I hope our friendship doesn't go stale =)

Running out of time
Time has gone by so quickly and i've already been back in Sydney for 5 weeks. In another 2 more weeks, i'll be starting my new job at ANZ. I am really looking forward to it =)
The decision process was definitely tough & challenging. The offers that were made, which to decline and dealing with grumpy recruitment consultants.
When I was in HK, I had an urge to change fields. I seriously considered going into the HR industry. After my experience with HR consultants this time back, I have decided against it.
My retirement practising lifestyle time is running out... need to make the most of the rest of my holiday!!

Grey **
On a big green grassland, there's a little grey cloud sitting above my head. It's pouring rain and i'm all soaked. How I wish I can step away from the cloud and allow the sun to dry me up.
