Today
After a week of rest, life has changed. It became very unpredictable to me, should i say it came as a shock or a surprise? U take your stand
I was back to taking the same bus.
I greeted the indian sweeper everyday.
But everybody i saw asked me the same question why i was back again. It's rather difficult for me to answer their question. Just gave some lame excuses to cover my disappearance for that week. Yes, back again, as consultant (t be exact)!
Sometimes i ought to be thankful to be given a 2nd chance, but again, the responsibility is there...
Sometimes i do hope that life will be peaceful for me and not play prank with me for turning my life topsy turvy...
The last thought that came to my mind for today: I would really make use of this opportunity if I can turn back the clock.
Yesterday
I discovered a big secret. It seems like...
SHE=T'ang Quartet, they're similar!
My crazy instinct tells me that. I saw them during the intermission of the showcase, cool guys i've to say. Good looking and talented
I was interrupted by phone calls halfway thru the concert, thought that it was some big matters. 2nd part of the concert, i was disturbed by some snoring sounds that came from behind, growing louder with the music... So inconsiderate, ugly sg-ians!
The day before yesterday...
or the day after tomorrow???
I think i forgot what i did...
This entry is dedicated to my loyal reader's request... Ms. A Tan

Bye
I will not be taking the same bus to work everyday, facing the same ladies on the same bus.
I will not be seeing the tomboy lady bus driver.
I will not be saying good morning to the indian sweeper at our office.
I will not saying hi to the uncle in red polo tee.
I will not be meeting the schoolmate and yet pretending that she's some stranger to me.
I will not be going to toilet with pk anymore.
Haha, it's my last day at SAE and it's going to mark the end of a chapter in my life. Everything is going to change right from this very minute. I'm always looking forward to a more colorful and enriching chapter in my life. My company treated us to a farewell dinner last night, and presented a farewell gift for me. After dinner, we went "exploring" before Uncle Song drove us home. I left the company leaving good and bad memories behind, feeling light-hearted, hoping that all goes well for the new colleague who took over my duties, but seems like it's gonna turn out otherwise as tenders start filling in...
Time seems to pass very quickly today, feeeling busy yet feeling happy all day long. I could feel the happiness in me. Wrokload started to weigh on as tenders fill in, and robbing us of the time to hand over my outstanding files. Yet, I feel that everything has been handed over, but sensed that something is missing. Nvm, they will call me if they need help but hopefully I prayed that my phone wouldn't ring everyday.

The Mayonnaise Jar and the coffee
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar.
He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognise that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things. Your family, your children, your faith, your health, your friends, and your favourite passions. Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still?lt be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter. Your job, your house, and your car.
The sand is everything else. The small stuff.
If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and
fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first, the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."
