What's the meaning of life? Does it follow a natural course..completing studies, work, start a family, grow old and die? Recently, I have been pondering on this question. Now, I really feel that life is too boring and routine. I work up every weekday to work then go home and the cycle continues. Seems like a few of my colleagues and friends are also questioning themselves. Why do we need to work? so that we can have money. Why do we need money? so that we can afford things which we want and able to enjoy life. But how are we going to enjoy life when 5 days a week we are busy with work?
I happen to pick up a storybook in library, or rather a diary of a gal who suffered from an incurable spinocerebellum degenerative diease. The title is " one litre of tears". It moved me a lot, being brought into her world, from discovering her illness and gradually worsening of her condition. She cherished every bit of chance to walk on her own, something we have so taken for granted. The love of her family for her was enormous, even after her life slowly fades away. A storybook I strongly recommend :)
I really hate my work now and everyday I go into company waiting for 5.30pm so I can go home. Its not like there are tonnes of work, rather no work at all on some days. Its really a mental torture with nothing to do at all, to a point that I just stare blankly at the google mainpage...with nothing in mind what I can still search for. But I cannot grab any job out there just because I detest this job. I hope to find a job which I enjoyed doing and staying on.
Thanks qiaoshi for the chat. Its been a long time since we met and I really enjoyed our chat. I have signed up for the pilates in CC...maybe you can join me...hee.
I had buffet with my colleagues last night at sakura, a goodbye dinner for the 2 colleagues. This colleague told me before that eat buffet 的最高境界就是“扶墙进,扶墙出”。Meaning, you go in with empty stomach and you are too hungry that you need to lean against the wall. When you exit, you have such a full stomach that you cant walk and need to again lean against the wall. Haha, I am always surprised by her words. Another phrase which she said to me before, 你每出国tour 一次,人生就完美多以次。I fully agree with this. My life is not too complete, coz I haven tour a lot of countries. My next big target, Japan!!
Next Friday is the last day in this company for my closest colleague. I am depressed, knowing she's leaving us for another job, but is at the same time glad for her. I believe she will be treated better in her new job, not like here when she is being kicked around like a ball. Wish her all the best!!
When another colleague knew that she is leaving soon, he actually got angry that she did not tell him, and deliberately avoided her. Haha, so childish. Somemore, he actually told me to inform him if I am leaving, or even better I will stay on... I am in fact touched hearing this, before he continued saying this---> so he can make more fun of me... diao..
What I din tell him is that I am gg for a job interview...hee..
