Life's little lessons

Recently, I came to understand something rather valuable. It's one of those life's little lessons. It seems like whatever we do in this life...there's always an opposite. Take for example...I am suppose to leave my ex-company on a fine day...but who knows, i didnt manage to go on that day...i stayed on for a couple more instead.
And the more recent one, I'm supposed to get my final pay...but then 'again' due to something i've done in favour of others ages ago...i didnt manage to get my pay...they are now holding me in debt of a company asset instead...one which i did not take. i was told to just help collect it...now i owe the company. The person who asked me for that favour, decided to ignore all my emails and sms'es...and god knows how long this is gonna drag. So much for doing favours...eh?

And finally ...I'm suppose to start my new job this week (this is something rather good), I get to rest till next week. It seems like recently...I'm having all these...stop and go...come and gone...here and there sorta event. I'm not complaining abt that here...dont get me wrong...it's just that all these things that happen...made me realize that this is what we call life. Sometimes alot of things, we thought we had it all planned out...laid out nicely...but somehow...if its fated to change, it'll still change...for better or for worse.

I did a search on Google Image for the word GLOOMY, and found that there's this figure called..."the Gloomy bear". Doesn't look gloomy to me at all.

The Closing of yet another chapter

Finally...I'm back home. Just got off the plane...and stepped foot into my good ol' abode. Felt great! Can't help but to logon to post this. Just to share the news with the rest of the good people who've been visiting this blog. I'm back home! And hopefully I'll get some peace and quiet time here for the rest of the week or so.

Anyway, now...it's time for some GOOD REST. I might not be posting for some time...zzzzzzzz

The 'Favour'

Last nite...the promised 'favour' was delivered...the migration had to be done due to another's absent. It went quite well. We're back at Anggrek by 12:30am this morning. By 8:30am...we were downstairs...waiting in the car...to be brought here...for yet another round of testing...this time, by The People. The 2nd part of the 'favour'. Apparently, doing favours for some ungrateful souls not just goes in vain...but you'll get something 'else' in return. Something...which puts yourself into trouble. I've never asked for anything in return anyway. Thought I'm just doing it for a 'friend'. So much for doing favours.

Anyway, I'm feeling alot better as compared to yesterday...I guess the longer I stay here, the better I get at 'getting over with' things. Hope this will be the last time i'm getting over with the things here. I don't want anymore of this. I'm tired.

The -1 day.

I was rather disappointed, furious, agitated and everything yesterday.
My big day...came to ruin...after so long of an anticipation and planning.
I planned to send farewell mails, return keys and complete my timesheet yesterday...but after such turn of events, I don't really feel like doing anything now. All my plans have crumbled down like the Walls of Berlin. Smashed. Demolished.

Who's to blame? I gave in to it...succumb to it...Think of it as my last charity for the firm, I'll feel better that way.

That was what I prepared for today's post. Not complete...but somehow...that's how I thought I would wanna begin with.
Sighs...I guess life is full of surprises. What others used to say...was true.
This morning...I woke up early...joined 2 other colleagues for a jog at PL. I've never done this in my years in Anggrek. Even after last nite's gaming session. I find myself waking up at 5:50am...just to join them for an early jog. Took my shower after that..had breakfast coffee bean. I dragged my fully packed skycab to work.
Happy. Cheerful. I told my boss..."Today is a bright day...sky's blue...bird's chirping...sun's shinning..."
Not even an hour later...the sky turned grey...the birds all died...the sun's gone...an eclipse took place.
I'm not leaving today...
