| Saturday, October 13, 2007 Wow. Another day of work and everything went so smoothly it was crazy. I got a lot of work done really fast today, and it was quite amazing. Seriously, it is times like this when I am afraid. I have always secretly wondered how come I am as 'successful' in my work as I am, and I still do. I have not done anything particularly amazing or wonderful or great. I just do what people ask me to do, sort of. And if I do mention some things, or ask some things along the way, I do. How come people think it is so amazing ? Lol. I am not trying to say I am good or praise myself, I am just as puzzled why I have not been fired already sometimes. Went for lunch with the CEO, a Senior Guy, Head1 and Head2. Head2 talked to me before lunch and she drank my drink and ordered me another one. But she was impressed that I was there at all. Head1 actually interviewed me for this job last year on January 4th and still remembers it, (so do I) and he remains healthily impressed, just like MrPhan. Yay ! Senior Guy knew about my position and was impressed with what I told him I had done. Good. Best of all was actually the CEO. The Indian policeman guy. After all that talk about him being seriously strict and all that, he was alright. I think. We had lunch in a 6 star restaurant, PHEW ! Crazy expensive. By the way I learnt that land in that city area part of HCMC (Ho Chi Minh City) was about USD60,000 a square foot. That is crazy. Anyway. My conversation with him ran pretty much thus. In university I decided that I wanted a job that could bring me joy and be fun. And my job has given me the best chance. After working for almost 21 months, I have only spent half that time at the Malaysian office. (I was really surprised after counting that). I am quite proud of that statement. Only half the time in office ! And that where I worked was really a place to grow and go places. Woah, you should have seen him smile. Add on to that Head1 told him that I was the best GA of my batch. Free publicity. He invited me to watch Vietnam's growth story. I think I could get a job here if I really wanted to. But do I ? Well, it is always good to have options. That is that. No more work for now. At least for this weekend. This weekend I need to explore HCMC, as MrNM has gone to Hanoi for a holiday with his girlfriend. Explore ! This sort of reminds me of my early days in Shanghai where I was exploring everywhere. This is quite dangerous, as although it gets very exciting, I get really emotional as well. Sigh and that is when I dream a lot. And think a lot. Anyway !!!! Still missing Melbourne !! It was a fantastic trip and I am very glad and happy I made that trip. I swear, those memories, I will treasure forever. I have returned to my Heart of Greed series, with my spare time. I should be studying, but I have to finish this. Maybe by this weekend. And you know, it is so terrible. ..... I think of you whenever I watch the series. Whenever I hear that song inside. Whenever I say the word terrible, which I do all the time now. Whenever I play mahjong. Whenever I ..... a lot of things...OK ANYWAY. I do not usually believe in signs, but you know, your song was playing in the shop the other day. And then I heard someone say the word so terrible. And then I met someone with your name. And the site where I watch my series, the series was uploaded by a guy called KiwiFruit. Ok anyway like I said I do not believe in signs. But, I miss you and I dream of you. This is turning out to be a really long post. Just as long as yesterday's. Or even longer. OMG. Episode 36. I swear, this sub story of Heart of Greed which really has no reason to be in the show at all, is really my inspiration. ANYWAY !! OMG>.... I think I am growing old...memory keeps slipping and typing nonsense stuff. Hehe, no can do, just yesterday I was saying that I felt really young. ANYWAY...there is really too many anyways in this post. Let me log off. I love you. I think if we could raise our kids in Melbourne quietly, then I would not have to be mega rich. I would be content. |
