Yikes.
Friday left me feeling disappointed with myself. What was a super simple document now seems like a complicated one, when approached from another standpoint. Everything just seemed so foreign and it will be a 3-pronged uphill battle.
All in good time, hopefully.

remember me?
Was that a hiatus? I think that is equivalent to a sabbatical :)
A lot has taken place since my last posting. Some I wish not to have materialised the way it did and some is more than what I anticipated.
What I recently discovered:
1. I can eat 15 cuppacakes mini within an hour.
2. Career-wise, loyalty doesn’t usually take you where you want to go.
3. It’s a small world.
4. Switching areas takes a lot of gumption. Being positive helps.
5. My fatty of a cat actually secretly adores me and misses me when I’m not around.
6. Bombing money on yet another handbag that costs an arm isn’t going to curb your desires for other arm-costing handbags. You just lose your arm, or arms (pick the option applicable). But of course you gain a handbag.
7. [In relation to item # 6] However, you’re still going to lust for other handbags. This is actually quite healthy because this is “The Secret” i.e. the laws of attraction. You are attracting the other handbags into your life by lusting for and imagining having them. Whether or not you will realise your intent of owning the handbags is of course dependent on how strong you are attracting them in your mind :)
8. [In relation to item # 7] Are you convinced?
9. David Cook is starting to somehow ooze hotness but I am still loyal to Michael Johns!!!
I am about to wrap up my first week at my new work place. It has been great so far. Obviously it offers prospects distinct from that of the previous one. The required change of perspective feels a bit strange, on top of that it is a whole new “language” out here. A lot of homework to be carried out, but I am set on making the best out of this opportunity.

let's hit the gym
RM1.2m find in gym locker
By LOURDES CHARLES
PETALING JAYA: How much money would you have on you when going to the gym or fitness centre for a workout?
Only sufficient for drinks or a meal after a hectic workout, right?
Wrong! Someone apparently had other plans when he or she went to a gym in Subang Jaya last Friday.
A supervisor at a well known fitness centre there found RM1.2mil in a bag in one of the lockers when closing for the day. The centre closes for business around midnight.
Scared and dumbfounded the supervisor contacted his manager who then called the police. Police were equally shocked to find such a huge amount of cash in the locker.
Initial investigations centred on the April 9 KL International Airport heist, where two moneychangers were robbed of RM3.5mil after being shot by six armed robbers.
However, police ruled out that possibility as the money in the bag was in Malaysian currency and British pounds. The KLIA heist was in Singapore dollars.
Selangor police have questioned several suspects in connection with the KLIA heist but have made no arrests.
However, for the gym find they have yet to ascertain where the RM1.2mil came from or who was assigned the locker that day.
Selangor CID chief Senior Asst Comm II Mazlan Mansor would only confirm that police were investigating, and declined to elaborate.

“*&#”^@%*$%# you fat ugly bitch!!"
I hear HK cussing out loud after hanging up her phone and immediately know who it is directed at. She was just telling me about it during lunchbreak. It has nothing to do with the recipient of that outburst being fat, ugly or reminiscent of a female dog. At work, it is a valuable skill to keep cool when faced with difficult/obnoxious/petty/vile/impossible/senile/beyond stubborn (take your pick) individuals who think you should worship the ground they walk on simply because their employer pays your employer.
The past 2 ½ weeks went by in an eyeblink but it involved making choices I’ve never open myself to. There’s a first time for everything.
I am told that I’m now walking around looking like I’m not at all stressed as if I just came back from holiday -- which is a good thing (for me) and annoying (for them). The Boss is currently asking probing questions and wondering whether there is a possibility of returning since I’m switching sides altogether (reasons being it is something new, unfamiliar, different/ Like duh..). Let me consult my crystal ball… NOT. Just let me be. My mind is made up.
As I prepare a list of portfolio for ease of handover, I can literally visualise the burden off my back being lifted bit by bit. Drama or what? Anyhow, happy is me. That's all that matters.
