Welcoming Christmas

Had a shopping trip at IKEA with CM for the Christmas decorations during the weekend. I bought the hanging stars and had them floated in my room. With a tiny candle glow and the light jazz music, the atmosphere is wonderful. I can just simply think of nothing and enjoy this moment of calm and silence.

A Sip of Quality of Life

A very relaxing -- or luxurious morning with myself on Saturday, which all started with the 0830 dental appointment. Starbucks with a delicious warming creamy chocolate for another 45 minutes (yummy), before moving for the 2-hour spa appointment.  

Love to use glass cup rather than paper ones to drink chocolate/ coffee, for no reason. Just think this would be tastier and the warm feeling is much stronger, which is very important during the cold days.

Suddenly get a very strong feeling that I want my life to be mine, entirely. Maybe I am somewhat tired or even exhausted about living my life up to others¡¦ expectations. I want my life of quality back. I want to work hard for myself, spend the weekend leisurely in a way I enjoy. Maybe more importantly, I want to have a night of quality sleep, especially during the weekend.

I seem to pretty understand what I am aiming for in my life, but sometimes, like today, I am somewhat lost. I am not asking for becoming transparent, but for something/ some stage very close to that, especially outside the working environment. I want to be alone, spending the time thinking about what¡¦s happening in the past several months, on top of work; and my plan for the coming 2007. At present, I can¡¦t even spare a thought for my beloved Christmas ¡V how to decorate my room and how to enjoy that. My life becomes too dependent on others¡¦ choice now. A sad thing indeed.

 

So many tasks I need to do, but got no time to finish that during the normal working hours, or even the non-official working hours during the working days. If I try to list out all these tasks, it will surely be a rolling list.

  1. ILC hours
  2. Emails clearing
  3. Company-related news
  4. Government departments information research
  5. CRM project review and planning
  6. Expense Reimbursement
  7. Financial planning
  8. Christmas preparation
  9. Environmental issues research
  10. IT strategy planning research
  11. Read MPFA proposal and related materials

10 August 2006    Thursday

This should be the busiest day of the first week in the new team -- having one proposal and 2 SOWs to be finished in the morning. Actually I slept only 4 hours and got up before dawn to finish mm's proposal. I wanted to give the best thing to mm.

Before lunch, mm gave me back the commented proposal with a score - 70 out of 100 - one which means pass marginally in IBM.  *sigh* (and much more marks should have been deducted due to an unforgivable mistake discovered the day after. *sigh*)

Lunch celebration with Vincent today at Taikoo Shing. He just came back from his Malay trip. I was so impressed that even he slept at 4am the previous night he still did lunch with me. And he bought me some souvenirs on his trip. *impressed x 1000* (I didn't bought him anything during my recent trips to BJ and Koh Samui........)

I love being with him. I can be myself and can discuss whatever I like to, or just listen to him. And when I talk, he really listens, and understands. Yet we can't chat for 2-3 hours as what we did several years ago. I need to work and he needs to go home now. WORK, FAMILY, FRIENDS - always needs to sacrifice one for another.

=======================================================

I am so happy that finally we are FRIENDS, true and equal.
