I spent the very last month of 2009 working and working… yes contrary to what people is doing, taking holidays, clearing up leave, catch up with friends, yada yada yada. I spent most of my days in the office, I didn’t have any leave to clear obviously, and yes, I wish I could join my many friends who are clearing leave and spending afternoon in delicious and doing about Christmas shopping…
Working during holiweek is usually quite fun, d boss cut you some slack, the people are merrier, your colleague offer you expired cookies . …(what turf!!!), you print photos from the office, you forward some forward emails, you go online and chat with your other friends who also work on holiweek…..and the list go on….
Ok, bac to the story, since I was having some holiweek mood,and I have some free time to kill…. I get to observe these funny people at my work place, and one of them is the sicko nut case workaholic. Being petite and obstruct by high cubicles, there is a advantage of me being able to observe them and they???... they dun even know that I practically existed.
I find human behavior rather amusing, that one person whom you usually project as fun and nice would act differently when the big boss is around, they are well guard of their actions and speech and because we do not operate in an IT industry or call centre when everyone cuts everyone slack, the tension would built up and it can be quite alarming.
Mind you that I work in an organization which my floor consist of mostly 95% women. U can imagine the headache…every woman is a wonderwoman….
I always wonder how far can a woman go to be to considered a workaholic?
What if she’s married? Does she need time to shop, every woman enjoys that, buying clothes? Diapers ? milk ? groceries?
Or does she rush home to go see her kids, unless its not hers? Duh…
Or does she have responsibility to do at home? Cooking? Laundry? Ironing?
Does she also pay the utilities at home?
Would she prefer to stay single and not get married given a second chance?
What is the joy of working like a donkey at office and at home and become restless and tired at the end of the day?
What gives ??

Reflectios of 2009!
• Cough **

My blog has been really dusty…..I’ve been attempting to get back on my blog for a long time, however, my life wasn’t on track and there were too many stuff that was going on ,thus the hiatus from my blog…also no mojo to blog.
Apart from the happenings revolving in my life, the last quarter of 2009 has definitely been a life changing one. I have learnt that work is work, and shit is shit. No point arguing. Also, I’ve come to learn that people are in need of constant attention, love and communication, near or far, it’s what we are created for, also what we yearn for…not jus earning bunch of moolas…where people are buying the things they dun need to impress the people they dun care.
Looking at 2009, I know am I very blessed because not only I get to travel to most of my favourite places but also with the people that I enjoyed most and cannot live without. They are my crazy fanatic shopaholic friends with whom we spend about 6-8 hours shopping daily, my family who came by and joined, as well as the island escape in boracay and krabi with the person that I love most. I have the most amazing people in my life because these people are here to give me support, to share ideas, to give advice, to lend a shoulder to cry, to accompany you, and most importantly to shower you with love. I dun know about you, but I dun think there is a greater act of love that comes from within the heart.
Apart from that, I also get to do a sideline of my own business, attend fun workshops and getting back on track to study. Yup!.. you heard me right. I’m taking up classes now..
2009 has been a great year for me, I did not make any resolution because I knew I would not fulfill any, nor did I make any big bucks, of lose any weight (cause that seems to be every girls resolutions), or make more $$$$$!!! 2009 was a year of self-improvement year for me. I have learnt there are things you should let go, love that you should give, words that are never meant to be spoken. When I was younger, I used to be ignorant to what people would think or say about me and I would never be bothered and although I still hold very strongly to such belief the degree of this belief has gradually change and only applies to certain situation like criticism can gossips, but I would blog about this again some other time.
To wrap it up, I am looking forward for a great new year in 2010….. !and I wish the same for you too….
