WELCOME
A place where I note down littles of my life to share with my dear friends. 
Took a day leave today to send my dear brother to tekong for his army training. Seized the chance to step into this island which I may not have another opportunity to enter again..unless I am lucky enough to have a son. A rather long journey with about a 15 minutes bus ride from pasir ris interchange to ferry terminal..plus another 15 minutes to tekong by ferry. They din show us much, only the bunk, the swimming pool, canteen and obstacles course.
Never expect this would happen..I innocently thought that only the ang moh will be sacked..but there was more to it. Altogether 10 colleagues were retrenched, reason being, the company has met financial difficulties. Suddenly, everything just fell apart.They were made to pass their projects to the others.. the atmosphere was no longer lively, but gloomy. 20% of the staff were axed.. including 2 of my closest colleagues and lunch kakhis. I still can remember the laughter during lunch and promise of another lunch trip down at Holland V.
Never felt so worried like this before...
My brother had his hair shaved before he enters the army. Haha..now he looks more plump than before..So my sis and I bought a cap for him today to put on when he comes back during chinese new year.
Dunno wat is he doing now in army.. and if he adapts well there..maybe he got to know a few new friends in his bunk alr..Hope he will get up on time everyday for his training..hee..coz he normally sleeps in.
Looking forward to chinese new year eve when he will be back with us :)

knowing these precious moments will not last forever, I cherished every group interactions we had. Hence, there memories will be inside me as long as it can be. However, I just felt betrayed by the company. Of the 10 colleagues, only 1 was a PRC. They protect them and place them at higher priority then us. So, I am having thoughts of finding a greener pasture after 1 yr of experience..

Today, my team leader revealed a surprised news to me. She hinted that the company will be changing research direction, hence she wants me to learn all the things which the ang moh is doing now...that she and the others will help me in my work in future. Oh no...bad feeling..he is going to be sacked.Ya..I have been complaining about his work attitude. But when I got this news..I feel sorry for him. Will he confront me on why he got sacked but not me?..since I have lesser work experience than him..What worries me also is that the company seems to have financial problems and is cutting cost...and focusing now on an area which don't require me.
Worry for my career..hai..
