these are my ramblings. dont take them seriously. because they are not meant to be taken seriously. if you do, i feel bad for you because you are taking what is on my mind seriously.

work, friends and boss

i just found out after my departure at NB.... my 4th friend is leaving NB. this one is different. (i guess you can say i am close to all 4 of them because they are my "fun and games" buddies at the company) i ate breakfast with him every morning. he bakes and brings me food. we talk about beauty together. he was my Stanford in life(how Charlotte had a Stanford in sex and the city) our business trips together were entertaining and full of girls talk. but now he's leaving because his boss is being crazy. (we are not in the same department but we work very closely together) 

to me, it was a good company. my boss was nice even though he bullies me. i learned a lot. i had a lot of opportunities. but i made myself a promise is that unless i can go back as a higher position, or else i won't be going back because i felt that i absorb a lot when i was there. but i won't be learning too much more. i never admitted to it why i came back early. it was because i felt that i was being stuck inside this whirlwind power struggle between the 2 department heads. i was very tired and annoyed that i was in the middle making peace. that is the main reason why i left nb early than i intended to. 

talking about my boss. haha! like his daughter continuously tells me "he's a dictator." oh he is. But without this man's dictatorship, i won't be who I am today. Due to this dictatorship, I was force to doing a lot of things I never imagined I can do. He gave me the opportunity to "stand firm" and "toughen up" i guess at the same time, he used his most indirect way to tell me that I have a gift of dealing with people. He gives me responsibilities that no grown man should give a 20 year old. He gave me all the possible "educational moment" in our jobs so I can learn how to deal with them. For me, even though he's a dictator. But I learn so much from this man. He had truly influence me. seriously, i have never been so grateful for anyone who's not my family. even though, i am half way across the world- i know he gets his daughter to check up on me regularly. and he will be there for majority of my life because i am good friends with his daughter. (somehow he thinks i am a good influence on her)

why are people so stupid?

I make fun of gold diggers. I joke about being a gold digger all the time. But that doesn't make me a gold digger. I say I should be one but it doesn't mean I am one! 
ARGH! 
so stupid. I have this stupid friend, who's like 28 now. He is so social awkward! It's like. DUDE! GROW UP! 10 years ago, your jokes were funny. 10 years later- your jokes are lame! 

He asks me the worst questions ever. 
Like... if you can't afford to go out.. then leech off some guys. 

SERIOUSLY! i say i will.. doesn't mean i will! GOSH!!! so stupid...

Right now...

I see myself being in Hong Kong in the future. Maybe not like recent future.. but I see hong kong as part of my life goal. 
I don't know if I want to go to UK to get that grad dip regarding supply chain for fashion... or do i want to stay here and get my HR designation then go to uk to go back to hk... 

everything is so blurry right now. do i want to stay in hk or canada? 

i am giving time for God to help me decide. 
if i can find things that will prompt me to stay in Canada- I will stay here. 
but if i don't... 
I am going back to HK.

so scary

so i was napping in my bed, and suddenly there were like door bell.. so i peaked outside.. and didn't recognize the car so i kinda went back to napping... 
but the person at the door just won't stop ringing!!!! 
so i finally got down and opened the door.. and turns out that there's no one there. 

and then i went to the kitchen to get juice. while i was drinking juice, i saw this black woman poking her head into my kitchen. so i SCREAMED!!!! obviously it worked. then i am like.. why are you on my property? this is trespassing. blahblahblah. she explain she's from some nursing agency. then with more questions- she ran away. 

so obviously i was going to call the cops. but then i realize lets make sure she's really from a nursing agency. luckily i remember her agency's name and i called and confirmed that she's really an employee. so nahh..not going to call the cops. 

somehow this story doesn't seem as exciting on the blog than it does when i am talking about it. ask me.. and i will tell you the story in person
