It's been awhile...

...But I'm back!

It's been a looonnnnngggg hiatus. Things haven't been quite the same since my last entry(which I have forgotten the content of! Yikes!).

For one, I've found a lovely lovely companion and,if I may say so myself and in my terms(so as to not slap myself in the face should anything go wrong *Choy Choy Choyyyyy~~!*), he is the kind of man a woman(at my age),should be looking for. The presence of below-mention qualities says it all.

- Patient

- Loving

- Mature (coz he's 4 years older then me)

- Stable (I'm talking about maturity here coz his mind sometimes enters into 'lame' mode and then he becomes not so stable)

- Goal orientated (he knows what he wants and he works hard to get it. Sexay....)

- Got moolah to spend on me. (I don't insist on being brought to expensive restaurants or buy expensive gifts all the time so I'm kind to his pocket. But he doesn't hesitate to spend money on things that he knows will make me happy.)

- Open-minded (he understands my job scope and work environment and seldom questions about the people I hang out with.*I also play my part in being open and honest la*)

- Open to constructive criticsm (Michael was a terrible mistake with regards to this. My man,on the other hand,does not jump to his own defence quickly but digests the advice/info/insight that I have given him first before he says anything to agree or disagree.)

- He drives (my mum's favourite point about him and mine coz I save back so much
on my EZ Link card)

- He owns his own apartment. Well. Sorta. (he co-owns it with his dad coz he cannot buy his own HDB apartment at his age and with his current marital status but the point is,he is paying for half the flat. That,in my terms,is good enough. And if I do marry him, you gals will know where I will be staying.)

And the most important quality about him is.......

HE LISTENS TO ME!!!!
He doesn't listen to every single thing la but he listens and that's what matters. He doesn't just hear. He listens.
You may be wondering why I'm not disclosing his name nor am I putting any pictures here to prove my undying love. I somehow believe that if I do that(as I have been doing with my exes),this relationship will not work out so if you wanna see him or know him,you have to meet me and I will introduce.
Oh yes and he's quite cute too despite his uncle-ly deposition. Hee.
So much for my love life. Now it's time to go on to my work life.
I'M BACK WITH DBL O!!!
Yep yep I'm back! Be afraid...be very very afraid...hahahah!
After a chaotic end 2010, I'm glad to be back. First my paternal grandfather passed away,then almost consecutively, SS closed its shutters leaving me with no job, and then my maternal grandma passed away.
So far things have been pretty swell. It's generally just a really good feeling to be back amongst people I know and I have grown to love over the years. Some of my ex colleagues(as in ex colleagues who have since left EHG), commented on those of us who left and then came crawling back. I don't feel offended by those remarks nor do I leave them lying down. Usually I just retort with a,"After so much that has happened, don't you think I still belong here?"
The answer is usually,"mmmm...actually ya..."
Which just goes to show my party animal "wild child" face was with me, is still with me and will forever be with me till the day I die.
(Just a thought. Can you imagine me still partying days before I die? Or better yet can you imagine my grand kids telling me during CNY," ah ma gong xi fa cai! ah ma where you usually go party ah? I also wanna go! Next time you go can bring me along?" -Pengz-)
So yea it's the new year and things seem to be going pretty alright for now. Currently my parents are on a cold cold holiday in China,Haerbin, and they will only be back this Sunday evening.
As I get older(and hopefully more mature), it is starting to get worrying to have your parents go off to some land which I know is definitely not in the best of weather(and toilet),conditions and have them not reply your sms for a day or two. I'm beginning to feel how they felt back then when I wanted to have my freedom and go away with my friends or schoolmates for short Malaysia trips and such. It's freaking unnerving and I start,subconsciously and quite ironically, grumbling like a worried parent would.
I'm getting off track already so I shall stop here and carry on another day.
Toodles!
