Taipei Taipei!

I have been waiting to conclude this lease at Taipei since one year ago. So that i can request for duty travel!

I missed the food at the night market, smelly tofu, bubble tea, bbq corn, deep fried chicken, jelly tea etc etc.

Having said all that, i still have worries abt the work. I hope everything does smooth. Otherwise, i am so gonna "get" it when i am back in the office.

Arghhhh

Two newcomers in my dept today.

One is only 28 years old and started as Asst Manager. WTH... I am so mad.

5th Anniversary

It's been 5 years.

I joined the company on 15 march 2006. Today is indeed a major milestone for me. During the years, I have thought of quitting, giving up either becos of colleagues, bosses or job progression & the lack of it.

I guess the reason I am still here is the opportunity to travel, to see the world, to work with different cultures. I used to think- it's hard to imagine people staying for 10 years, 20 years in the same company. Now I can see myself doing that.

Would I still be here 5 years later? Maybe?

I hope something wonderful will happen this year.

Hearts**

I love the States... states.... states...

I love the friendliness of people,

I love the wide road driving and without the need to fight for carpark lots,

I love the whole day outlet shopping,

I love the megamart like Kmart, Target selling jumbo sized food packets,

I love the cooling yet sunny weather during Feb,

Most of all, i love being in a different country.

US trip

The trip to Vegas, San Francisco and Los Angeles is so fun!

The people are super friendly, outlet shopping is cheap, scenery is breathless and left side driving is fun.

The only shortcoming is the long journey... my buttock really hurts after the 19 hours flight.

Should i?

Should i pack thick jackets or just thin cardigans? Should i bring more sweaters or t-shirts would suffice?

It is so difficult to pack the luggage given the erratic weather conditions in US!

First day of CNY Rabbit

Today something totally unexpected happened.

Maid cried for no reason... apparently. She was alright at ah ma house until dinner time when she said she doesnt want to have dinner.

What is the reason for a maid to cry? Home sick or too much dishwashing??
