The title must be familiar to some. It has to be, who could forget?? This is the phrase we learnt during the first c. programming lecture back in poly.
Such warm and fond memories.
Yup I’m back with updates! If you wish I’m no longer on earth, I’m sorry to disappoint you then. Hehe.
I just had a short holiday early this month and it was to one of my dream destinations – the Maldives. It was a well-deserved break away from the boss, work emotions and mess. Suz can’t help but asked me, “After this trip, where else can you go for your wedding honeymoon then?” I totally ignored her.
Latest update is that good news came by after my trip. I finally tendered resignation in my current job. I couldn’t be happier. It’s like I finally broke out free from prison or something. If your house’s roof is leaking and you know not even the head of the house is going to ever mend it, you just got to let go and move on. “We all got to think for ourselves in due time”, the exact words I told my boss that day I tendered.
Yup, I’m moving on after 2.5 years. I hope that in the next company, I would be able to commit for a much longer time. It’s really a chore going for interviews, taking leaves for them. Like for this new job I’m taking up, I took 4 half days (3 rds of interviews + 1 time to sign offer letter). I guess it’s all worth it at the end of the day!
One thing to note is that the more companies you were with, indicated on your resume, the more troublesome it is having to explain in your future interviews what you did for each role. You have to remember what you did even from your first job and honestly I’m not very young to remember that kind of details anymore you know.
Anyway a load off my chest for now while I serve my remaining notice period!!!
Here are some of my holiday pics:
We stayed at Centara Grand resort, which is a 40 mins flight from Male.
Free flow of food (buffet style every meal, with different themes everyday), free flow of drinks (alcohols inclusive), I put on a good 3kgs which I’ve yet to shed eversince.
I’m quite scared of buffets for now.
Basically, everyone (resort personnels or guests) at the resort thought we were from China. They cannot differentiate us asian chinese. Some thought we were japanese while most think we are China chinese. Surprisingly, there were alot of guests from China and of course we do recognize we are not each other’s counterparts. On the island resort itself, we seem to be the only Singaporeans. So when we were asked where we were from, everyone was surprised to hear we are from Singapore. The caucasian guests assemble together, the China chinese guests assemble together whereas we are the only two lonely Singaporeans. We also seem to be the only guests who came as friends. Everyone else is either with their family with kids or couples. :X
I’ve enjoyed the good amount of sky and sea views which Singapore is lack of. However, being a city girl I got bored on the 3rd day.
The service there is first class, every waiter/waitress speaks to you, even the room maid. Wherever you walk around and if any of the staff see you, they will greet you. Their staffs are of calibre that I don’t even think I can qualify to be a waitress there!
