Weeeeeeeeeelcome to UNIQLO!!!!

Its already known. I'm posting out on the 1st of Dec.

This information came too suddenly and too quick. I was just really getting used to all the nice people in Somerset and while this meant that i can wake up later, i will lose the chance to continue working will the Somerset staffs. And because of the latter,

I AM REALLY REALLY SAD.

These are the staff who i really respected and learnt a lot from, be it the PRC staffs of the filipino staffs, the singaporean staffs or the managers and supervisors, i am really starting to miss them already.

To make it worse, i'm the only MT that is posting out so early. Damned.

Maybe on the bigger picture, it is good and it bodes well on my appraisal. That's the brain talking but sadly, i'm a heart person who hangs on more to ties.

For once, i know that i brighten everyone's day when i make announcements through the PA system.They're are always so amused when i make announcements as i'll always start with a,

WEEEEEEELCOME TO UNIQLO!

Haha... Whenever they walk pass me, they'll mimic it... hahaha... but i'll always reply with a,

Enjoy it while you can... Cause i wont be here next thurs onwards......

The reactions are almost all unanimous. O.O :"WHY?!!!!!! YOU ARE POSTING OUT?! WHEN IS YOUR LAST DAY?! WHY DO THEY HAVE TO POST YOU OUT?!

With that reaction. i am contented. Knowing that i will be missed as much as i will miss them.

=|

I will miss somerset so dearly. Though i work like a slave there.

Sea of forgetfulness

I guess i haven't been to church for too long a time that i am really really starting to miss it. And also, i guess my work has been making me so tired all the time that all i want is just for some solitary time to sit and reflect about life and i guess, to hang out with my friends.

I guess its my fault that i didn't find out about the presence of an availability form that caused my sundays to go down to work. But not anymore! I hope... like seriously.... I need to go to my hiding place, my sanctuary.

Some bitching about work... I guess there's not really much to complain about except for the long hours and the shift work nature. Its in the job so well, i'll suck it up well. =) On the good note, i guess i finally learnt the entire package of shop floor duties after doing a whole day's shift of cashier duty. I must say that it is quite exciting as i has to be accurate and and smile at the same time and lastly be fast. And also, i get to make announcements. Haa..

Ok... Enough about work... I guess my life is much much better than my brother's as he seems to be going through a rough drought at his work. No biz for him so no commissions i guess. And his basic is really really low. I guess the next time i buy beverages for my parents, i'll buy for him too. =) That's the least i can do.

Walking into my brother's room just now, i hear songs of praise and worship playing and it immediately gives me a soothing feeling. Its like i walked into a tiny sanctuary where there is no need to worry about anything. Then i looked through his cabinet and saw this book that commemorates 25 years for God's love which is for his BB company's anniversary. That is a part of me that i'm losing fast in this race to grow up. I'm losing a major part of me that i recognise and am proud of and that makes me just sad.

As the songs of praise continue to play, i realised that i really miss church and there's a lot of things i wanna share to Him in His house. As i read His Words everyday on the train to work, i try to make it the quiet time i have with him as its the only time where i have totally no distractions. A totally of 30 minutes and more and i guess this is more that what i offered before besides doing preparations for DG. Oh yea.... And i haven been able to go for DG since i started work...

Just so apt, i chose this song which i played on my list,

East to West - Casting Crowns

Here I am, Lord, and I'm drowning in your sea of forgetfulness 

The chains of yesterday surround me

I yearn for peace and rest

I don't want to end up where You found me

And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight

I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west

And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned

But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

Jesus, can You show me just how far the east is from the west

'cause I can't bear to see the man I've been come rising up in me again

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest

'cause You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

I start the day, the war begins, endless reminding of my sin

Time and time again Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in

Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

I know You've washed me white, turned my darkness into light

I need Your peace to get me through, to get me through this night

I can't live by what I feel, but by the truth Your word reveals

I'm not holding on to You, but You're holding on to me

You're holding on to me

Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west

I don't have to see the man I've been come rising up in me again

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest

'cause You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

One scarred hand to the other

From one scarred hand to the other 

Indeed. I guess i am drowning in this sea of forgetfulness. I almost became oblivious to why i am here, proud to say that i'm christian. I almost forgot my faith, which i clinged on to so hard to get me through so many of my rough patches in my life. I do admit that i have a blessed life. And that's why i keep forgetting from time to time and yet, i am always allowed to come back by His grace and wonders.

I am just thankful that You are always in me and that i will always be in You. Amen.

I WANT TO GO ON GRAD TRIP AGAIN!

As i started looking back at all the pictures that were taken in our grad trip, i just can't help but wish that we can do it again in the years to come.

The problem is still the same all the while.... While you're a student, you're restricted by moolah while being a working adult, time is of the essence. And this is a chronic problem as if we were gonna be planning such a awesome trip with so many people again, time coordination is O.o

I haven been to many place and thus traveling is always on my mind. I realised that somehow along the way, i became more focused on career and i guess this is something that bothers everyone. The questions that always comes to my mind are;

Is what i'm doing gonna help me achieve my final goal or at least lead me to somewhere near?

Is my choice of company right?

Is this really what i want to do?

and finally......

do i regret giving up engineering as a career? cos i believe i could do pretty well as a materials engineer too.


My brain says that i must endure. My heart? wavers a bit as there is undoubtedly adrenalin rush in going rebel and do something that you din study. However, my heart is at the same time excited at the work that i am doing now and the work with what i am going to do. Senior staffs kept asking, day in and day out on whether i'm coping well and the matter of fact is,

Yes... I'm ok.

I'm guessing that i'm just a bit anxious to get my management training.

However.... With my work, i am starting to find it a bit hard to make space for overseas trips which i would love to go on. And with that, i mean really long trips like 2 weeks or 3.... Argh... The sacrifices i needa make just makes me .................................

Nevertheless.... I am still waiting for news about the 1 week japan training trip.

Argh.... i don't like the feeling that i have no control over anything.

i need to start finding stuff to do during break times.

and find a way to pass ippt.
