Knowing 'Someone' through Someone

It was pouring cat and dogs outside late this evening. Both of us knew traffic was going to be bad, especially the working area that we both are. I was really tied up with work yesterday. Too much too handle. We didn’t really speak throughout the day.

I was meant to meet Guardian Angel at his place at 8.30pm. But I was caught up in the office at 8.10pm. He called and later I laughed, as both of us were still at work (he knows my working style, I think. Oopps.....). It was sweet of him to call and offered to meet up at my area for dinner, after our short ‘discussion’ of where to eat and meet….

(Appreciated it)

We met up at the Gardens Café. It is quite a nice ambience café to dine at. Later, his friend called, asking to meet up for drinks and he suggested her to come by. I was definitely ok with his friend coming by. Anyway, to me, it’s good to know his friends (and an extra friend) like how he gets along well with mine.

We adjourned to Library for drinks after food till 2am. It was great chatting with someone whom I didn’t know at first and also to know Guardian Angel better. Knowing about his past (on working experiences) and how he treats others was a plus for me.

I’ve learnt a little more about Guardian Angel today.

It is never ending to learn something and about someone. It’s just a matter of whether one wants to take the initiative and effort to do so.

Answers

When people asked me previously what did I love about my partner, I used to take awhile to answer. I tend to crack my head.

Now, if someone were to ask me the same question, I know the answers to this partner of mine now.

Cheers. ;)

A Birthday Dinner with Interrogation

It was the night to meet up to celebrate Mamma Mia’s birthday. I was really late to reach the restaurant, which was located on the other side of PJ. The rain just made the whole traffic worse.

I was not feeling too well yesterday evening because I slept for only an hour on Monday night (and all those accumulative late nights and stress), was rushing for my preso to sell in on Tuesday morning. On the way driving to the restaurant, my eyes were really painful. I quickly fully utilised the-stuck-in-traffic- time to have a few eye drops dropped into my eyes. Besides this, I was feeling cold. So, the air cond was turned on and off the whole journey….My body was aching…. (suddenly feel so weak and old...haha)

All of them were chit-chatting when I arrived. They kept food for me. Even though I was eating alone, but it was nice as the company matters most. Guardian Angel didn’t join me because his company had a celebration dinner for him.

After I was done with eating, I went through kind of under an interrogation session last night as I didn’t see a few of them for quite awhile. They are my ‘extended family members’. The interrogation was about me and Guardian Angel. How we met, what and how it happened, why him…and the list of questions went on…. (But need not to worry Guardian Angel, all questions were well answered or closed answer with a smile.) I was told that ‘someone’ was feeling ‘sour’ because I went to watch Guardian Angel played futsal…. Hahahaha…..

At the end of the session, the verdict turned out well.

Of course, we had our family photo taken…..and the Birthday Girl (woman), of course.

The jovial couple (my second mum and dad ;P)

We talked and laughed till about 10.30pm. I couldn’t take the “uncomfort-ness” anymore and needed to see a doctor. All of us left for our separate ways home.

I went to the usual clinic. Doctor diagnosed that I was having some virus. Throat was really red and tonsils were swollen. She gave me antibiotics and some pain killer with lozenges and a Medical Chit.

Yea, I surely needed to sleep in and rest.

Unexpectedly Amazed

I was kind of suffering from headache when I was still sitting at my desk, beside the tall clear glass window, overlooking a big screen with advertisements playing. I had to finish up whatever I could and to be continued tonight (after my bath). I’ve anticipated not to sleep and have my coffee accompanying me later.

A rough, long day but it ended nice at 8.20pm. It was the beginning to a simple quiet time of togetherness.

Let’s rewind the time. I raced my way to Guardian Angel’s place as I was supposed to leave work earlier. We were to meet up for dinner. And so, I hurried over as it was late and it WAS late for dinner. He drove my car to the restaurant that serves the food I requested for. (Thank you, dear)

While waiting for dinner to be served, I looked up. There was a moon, a full moon hanging high up in the sky. It was beautiful and how it lit up the sky a little – the surrounding clouds at least. I just love looking at the moon (whenever there is one).

Talking and laughing with Guardian Angel made the pain went away. I’ve experience something that I don’t think I have experienced before and never thought that it would happen.

I am just amazed. Simply amazed by it.

OK, back to work now. Good night and rest well!

Short Tales on A Sunday Night

I just got home not too long after having dinner with my family. My parents extended the invitation to Guardian Angel (and vice versa).

I was at his place today till it was time for dinner. We were late to arrive at the destination as he was teaching me about some work stuff. (Yes, he is my mentor too. Thank you, dear!)

It was partially a working weekend for me. There were sometime spent with him as well running mini errands. :)

Off late, someone who deals direct with me (at work) told me not to be over intellectual about certain situations/ issues. I asked myself what the person meant. Am I really intellectual or it was just another word to mean ‘complicate’ matters? Simply because I never knew I am an intellectual person; or maybe at least past experience never told me so.

I reflected back.

Well, maybe it’s my style of working. I tend to think further and deeper, at times. Maybe that’s why I use up a lot of time and time is always not on my side? Maybe that also kind of complicates matters when there are unnecessary thoughts starts running in my mind.

Hmm…I wonder if that’s the right way.

A Slightly Disturbed Weekend

Before I start my work and getting all stressed up, here are some perspective for the weekend and next week…

I’ve foreseen since last week that this is a working weekend for me. I’ve took Friday night off and Saturday as well for not looking at my laptop, but my mind was constantly thinking about it – how should I lay it out, where can I dig for the figures and etc.

This is really bad sometimes because it can affect my mood and it can also affect those around me. Somehow my ‘aura’ is pretty strong. But, I guess I managed to control it a little. I didn’t want them to know that I was absent minded and disturbed by my work. What my company always preaches is “Work-Life Balance”, so I am just practicing it in a way by relaxing on a weekend, but yet not quite successful for this time round.

Bah!

You see, I’ve a meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday morning to sell in one of the big projects for the year. It’s pretty stressed for me as I need to get my facts right and get the sell in. I need to sell in persuasively (not with bullshit).

Tomorrow onwards I will be in a pressure cooker. I can’t wait till Wednesday is over!

I didn’t sleep quite well. So many dreams, so many scenarios in my mind. So, I finally dragged myself out from bed. I was worried that typing on my lappie will wake Guardian Angel up, but unexpectedly, he was in another room when I woke up. *Phew, blessing in disguise*.

*I will make it up to you next weekend, Guardian Angel, as I’ve kinda neglected you this weekend.*

Mid Week Review

Very quickly, let me do a review of the day.

I didn’t really had a good sleep last night. I had many dreams, and one of it that I remembered clearly is that I was bitten by a snake. Ahh, what a dream.

I woke up before my alarm rang. I got ready and left for work. I was feeling tired, while driving. I had a double dose of coffee in my personalized office mug once I arrived.

My morning was still ok as I was clearing up my work and also preparing for the afternoon’s meeting. I was called in for a meeting at about 11am with my mentor. I have a major project on hand and it needs to be presented to my buyer and other department’s people next week. Besides this, I had some other impromptu and urgent request to do. Ahh, I was going mad.

I had a quick lunch with my colleagues, and then went back to the craziness. I was in for a meeting on another topic with my mentor again till 430pm. In between, there were so much work to be done. Everyone came to me giving the urgent and important note. Being under the pressure cooker,I had to leave for my appointment at 5pm. (Working last minute is really not my style)

I was 10 minutes late for the appointment but I did inform my buyer on my ‘ royal arrival’ earlier.
The meeting was ok, nothing special, nothing depressing.

I met up with Guardian Angel. We had a simple dinner at home. He shared with me the happenings on his end and a super great news!

*Grin*

FYI

I reply your messages because I don’t want to seem rude to you. It’s just me.
I reply you NOT because I think there is a chance of reconciliation.
I’ve given up 2 years ago. (how time flies)
FYI, I’ve moved on and found happiness again…without you knowing it and which you don’t need to know either.

It's not important to you.

A Mixed Feeling Day

It was a long, running-around-day.

I had a slight privilege of sleeping in a little yesterday morning as I needed to be at my customer’s office at 9am. So, instead of going into the office first, I headed straight to Shah Alam. I was feeling thankful while I was at the office but yet also felt a little rejected. I kind of dreamt about my buyers off late, which is not healthy because it means I am under stress and thinking about work while asleep. It is just a trail of events in the past months. I shall not dwell into it too much as it might sound a little too emotional. I am altight now, but it was just at that spur of moment….. I needed to vent it out here. (I don't mean to whine about it)

Anyways, rushed back to the office to get some issues sorted out. It was closed to lunch time, so I had lunch with one of my colleague before heading down to Klang for my next appointment. I had an appointment with my mentor.

We had a very open conversation. We discussed about my career future in the company. That was the main essence of the discussion.

It is ironic to know that there are actually 2 people who regretted for their actions on me. I was surprised to know about the second one. Anyhow, I was happy that this person realized it and hope will be understanding if I am unable to deliver what is expected out of me.

But, even so, I don’t expect any special treatment or ‘compensation’ from the both of them. What had been done is done. Just move forward.

I received good news from Guardian Angel yesterday. The news was one of those which the both of us were waiting for. It was a call to success for him! I am so happy for him and am envisioning it to happen soon……

It is just a matter of time………..

Pointless

I wonder why does he still want to message me, using the organizer (diary) to meet up? A quarter of the year has passed; I don’t think I need it anymore.

You don’t owe me anything.

Farny Monday

I was supposed to leave office at 430pm to my buyer’s office. But I had to churn out a sell-in document which needed to be sent out today. I was supposed to be at his house earlier.

So, I ended up leaving 10th floor at 7.10pm. I drove to Guardian Angel’s house as he was already at home waiting for me. He told me that he bought dinner today. Hmm….on the way home, I wondered what did he packed.

After all the hustle and bustle on the road, finally I reached my destination. He was waiting for me by the door after I pressed the door bell. As usual, we exchanged a peck on the lips and I settled down. Hmm, he bought pizza for dinner!

The whole night, Guardian Angel was smiling and grinning away. The way he gazed at me and smile….it was really funny but yet…..suspicious… Tried to fish out what happened or what was ‘wrong’ with him, but failed. He was like a clam. Clam mouth. Haha….

By the time I left, he still hasn’t revealed the truth of being so happy and jovial tonight. As usual, he followed me behind my car, all the way back to my house.

I wondered, and still am wondering what was running through his mind……

A Nice, Quiet Dinner at Boulevard

After running all the errands, we tried out a new place for dinner. It is called IOI Boulevard. It is a plaza – like Plaza Damas in Hartamas or Solaris. There were shop lots in the vicinity and restaurants/ cafés in the plaza. We’ve decided to dine at Kissaten, the second branch outlet. The food is not too bad. It was my second time dining in this joint.

One thing I like about this Boulevard is it is not overly crowded and easy parking. The building is also quite breezy and cooling. It was a wise choice made by Guardian Angel (and agreed by me, hahaha).

We didn’t hang out too long at the place as both of us had work to do. Yeah, had to prepare for the new week again…..So, after dinner, we went back to his house to pick up my bag and off he accompanied me home, ensuring I reached home safely, thereafter he drove himself home.

A nice, simple night out before we called it a night.

The Little Things that Matter Most

Last night was one of the best nights so far. I was truly happy because of the incident that happened.

My weekend night started when Guardian Angel and I went to Sunway Pyramid. Guardian Angel wanted to get a white shirt from Raoul, but the store no longer exists there. So, we went ahead with the second thing on our to-do-list of the day after a simple dinner. The both of strutted to Jusco to do some groceries shopping. He was carrying the basket and the both of us walked down aisle after aisle – from junk food to alcohol to instant noodles.

A typical preparation for a weekend. (I know it is not quite healthy to mention this, but I would like to make a point – a message mentioned out loud here.) I used to do all the prep alone for someone, but now I am very happy that I have someone to do this together with. That's how a couple is supposed to be. I cherish it very much.

We met up with Mrs Giggs and gang for Man City vs Man U match at our usual football-hangout-place. We were late as the match has started but it was still alright as the score was nil-nil still after half time.

During the match, Guardian Angel suggested to watch the later match at 12.25am between Spur and Chelsea in his house. It was a great idea! So, after the winning match by MU, we adjourned.

The 6 of us got ourselves comfortable in his home. There were junkies and drinks all laid out on the coffee table. Sharon hasn’t taken her dinner as she just got off work (got off the plane) and straight away Glenny picked her up. Guardian Angel was caring enough to cook her a serving of cup noodle.

I was really happy last night as Guardian Angel treated my friends well and being caring. He has the initiatives and took the effort to care, share and make them feel at home. Another caring act by Guardian Angel was that he passed me the house keys when he drove out to pick up Glenny from the nearby Giant as he hasn't been to his house before. That time, me, Mrs Giggs and Arrow were standing beside the road, admiring the brightly lit up night view of the township below. Guardian Angel was concerned that it would rain while he was out. :) A selfless and caring act. I guess I have never experienced nor feel this way – a happy and appreciative feeling. (I believe this act is not short term but really a genuine act by Guardian Angel.)

Sometimes it is the minor doings that matter. Sometimes it is not about how often your partner tells you that he loves you or taking you very often on holidays or get you expensive gifts, but it is the little things that he does for you. The thoughtful thoughts that is more important as it depicts where you stand and the importance level of you to him.

I just didn’t expect to see and feel it this way. I wonder why?
I cherish and I appreciate.

Thank you, Universe for answering part the list of questions that I have.

*Oohh, got to go for dinner now. He is out from the shower, getting ready*

Ciao!

Saturday

Saturday has arrived. The weather was really warm and humid, but towards the evening, Zeus was playing with his bolt and started to have thunder and lightning – an indication of soon to pour.

I woke up quite late today. Guardian Angel and I both agreed to sleep in till we have a natural wake up. Both of us were pretty worn out with work and etc during the weekdays and weekends are the best time to recuperate. However, I normally don’t let a weekend just slip by.

I maximize the weekends.

What will I be doing over the weekends…? Tell you later. ;)

Second Home Change

With a blink of an eye, I have been working at the new location for 2 weeks now. Well, not exactly new location but it’s more of like our office was shifted to a new place.

I have to leave pretty early in the mornings, just to avoid the super bad traffic. I actually find it quite taxing by the end of the day….but it’s good to have a change, I supposed.

Here is the photo of my new ‘second home’ at 7.30am in the morning.

Seeing someone smile is nice feeling

Today passed by pretty fast. Maybe because it was a packed day for me.

I rushed out for a meeting in Kepong this morning. I was late, super late. Simply because I took the wrong turning. Sigh…silly mistake.

After the meeting, we adjourned for a quick lunch nearby and I shot off to my first stop - KLCC. There, I have to meet up with my sales executive. We went on a trade visit in a few KL stores.

After covering the store in KLCC, I quickly made my way to Mont Blanc. I left for BB Plaza thereafter. That’s my last stop for the day before I headed home to meet up with Guardian Angel.

Guardian Angel and I met up for dinner nearby his place. While he was having a shower, I took it out and placed it in a very ‘safe’ place. A surprise would be nice, I thought. We had Indonesian cuisine tonight. While waiting for dinner to be served, I was punching in alphabets to form a message on my E71. I saved it as draft. *Evil grin*

We went back to his place and we watched movie online. I was contemplating if I should send the text message or after he accompanied me home. At last, I’ve decided to click Send. It was a blessing in disguise that I sent it while I was still there as he didn’t get it despite of me giving a clue. A MAJOR CLEAR clue. Hahahahahha….. So funny.

After awhile, he found it. Finally.

He appreciated it and likes it! I am happy that I’ve made the right choice among the lot.

Summary: When someone is happy, I am happy.

Review

It is true that we should reflect back on the day’s happenings and did (s). I do a simple, quick review everyday before I sleep..

Yesterday I attended a training session. It was about our career path in the company and how we can work towards it, by starting it right – knowing our directions and what the expectations are from others; from our bosses.

One of the topics was about identifying our strengths and opportunities and which is more important?

To me, I said both. We should know what our strengths are and how we can leverage on them to succeed. We are also able to use strengths to coach others, so that others will learn and be able to improve themselves. I believe by teaching someone, the person is also learning, in a way.

When we’ve identified our opportunities to be better, we work on it. We seek for guidance and help from the right people. No one is perfect; hence as long as the person is willing to learn and have a positive thinking, I doubt there are any barriers…

However, after all said, the mentor of the day gave the correct answer to this. He told us it is more important to know our strength and utilize them. Once we’ve totally mastered and put in good use of our strengths, we get even better in understanding and execute with excellence.

Today’s review of the day is: (nothing about work)

I tend to wonder at times. Why do some people leave or stay away from someone? Is it because there were different needs and wants? Or the person has challenges or opportunities to improve in doing something or even character wise?

But simple, someone who is not in good use or couldn’t provide might lead to a ‘good bye in life’ – if you know what I mean…………….No excitement, no satisfactory.........

Maxed out Weekend

It was a fully-maxed- out weekend that I had.

It all started from Friday evening with a movie and came Saturday…

Guardian Angel had to service his Bumblebee at 8ish am. So, instead of waiting at the waiting area for his car to be serviced, I suggested that we meet up and have breakfast together. So, I picked him up from the service centre and off we headed for dim sum. Wow, it had been ages since I last woke up that early to enjoy the together-ness.

After a full breakie, we collected his car and off he sent it for a bath. We ran some errands while waiting for it to be cleaned. Guardian Angel had lunch with my parents for the very first time. It was a great, simple lunch!

That afternoon, the both of us had our own things to do, so we’ve decided to meet up later at night for dinner with the usual makan-makan kakis…

We had a scrumptious dinner and we adjourned for happy juice nearby. Chats and laugher filled the air.

We waited for the time to watch Real Madrid vs Barcelona that (wee hours) morning…by the time Guardian Angel drove me home, it was 7am….

Mama didn’t say a word. *Phew

I had a great Saturday…….

**************

Watched the Titans after a Super Long Week

This week had passed by really fast; to me, at least.

I was in trainings from 9.00am till 6pm yesterday. Super long day it was. Had an impromptu meeting with my mentor and team members right after the training.

I received a sms from Guardian Angel at about 6.30pm, I think. He told me that he is waiting for me at the McDonalds nearby and not to rush. I informed that I was in a meeting and would meet up once I am done with it. The discussion ended at about 7.30pm. I hurried to pack up my stuff and took the lift down 10 floors. He was there waiting for me at the foyer. It was nice to see him after a long, tiring day.

He took my lappie and my working bag from me. We headed to my car to drop off my bags and then off for dinner. Finally, I felt the weekend was here. A well deserved R&R time.

Guardian Angel pre-bought tickets for Clash of the Titans as he knew I so wanted to watch it. I’ve heard critics over the radio and friend’s review about the movie. Hence, I didn’t put high hopes with the movie.

Honestly, the storyline wasn’t as good as the 1981’s produced. I still like the older version. Some of the characters were created or diversified. Hmm….. what is my verdict? 4/10. It was just entertaining at some scenes.

After the movie around 11.30pm, I saw 2 messages and 1 missed call when I checked my phone. It was from him, an old friend of mine. His message sounded pissed off as I didn’t reply his messages that was sent couple of days back and the one sent when I was in the cinema. Hmm….I wonder why would he sounded disturbed? It had been crazy working weeks for me and sometimes it slipped pass my mind to reply.

Anyways, not that urgent nor important. ;)

Monday's Thoughts

Here I am, just jotting down my thoughts and feelings for the day…. Maybe it is a habit of mine.

I am rather disturbed today. Well, let me tell you how my day started off…

I woke up 15 minutes later than I was supposed to. I needed to wake up earlier than my usual time because I need to fetch my colleague, who lives nearby my house to work – our new work place in town. So, I left even before the sun rose – just to beat the traffic.

We reached the parking lot at 7am and it was really early. All of us were supposed to meet up at 9am for a welcome breakie at the foyer in the new building. Very impressive and nice building, I would say. We finally got into the new office, found our ‘assigned ‘ desk for the day and settled down.

Phone calls and emails were coming in like nobody business. I was quite swapped with work. I guess it was a little off my limit. I got kind of stranded and frustrated. I know, I have not been saying much of nice things about my work lately…..sorry.

I spoke to my boss privately about some stuff and I finally poured out what are the challenges that I am facing off late. I finally told her. She offered me some solutions; which I am glad of but I wonder how long will I sustain? How long can I take it? I know I should keep my positive thinking like previous times, but at times, I get kinda tired.

I left work around 7.50pm. Paid the parking ticket and headed to Guardian Angel’s house. He was on MC. Before meeting up, I packed dinner for the both of us. It was great taking care of him and being with him after a long day. After dinner, we went to the nearby park to soak ourselves in the cool breeze and chit chat.

I feel nice having someone to share my ups and downs with. Thank you for listening, Guardian Angel.

Everyone has their own set of problems, but I am very grateful to have a listener like him – being patient and provide encouragement.

Tomorrow is a brand new day….!

Good night, everyone.

It's Finally Sunday!!

I drove to KLIA in the afternoon. I was relatively happy and excited. It was the day Guardian Angel is back! After 2 wholesome weeks being away, far far away.

I managed to park my car at a good spot and waited a little while at the arrival hall for him to get his luggage.

There he was, in his beige jacket, white top inside, blue jeans and a white cap, along with his luggage behind walking out to the arrival hall…. I smiled and hurried to the side. The moment was just awesome! “Distance makes the heart fonder” is true…in this case.

I then accompanied him to run some errands after being away for so long…. To me, it didn’t matter what he had to do, but just being together and doing things together is great!

It was an awesome Sunday for me! We spent time unpacking, looking at the beautiful photos he took and having dinner together…

I hope he will be able to sleep tonight and get well soon!

In just.....

... another 18 hours……

He is back!

Another day has passed

I was supposed to wake up earlier than my usual time to complete some work, but I didn’t hear the alarm ringing and instead I only woke up when mama came into my room, waking the sleeping piggy…. I was really tired.

Went to work and had to rush through my work as office is shutting down latest at 2pm. Yeah, we are leaving this current building for another better, nicer building in town. ;)

And so, I thought perhaps I would do some shopping in the afternoon while I wait for Mrs Giggs to get off work – I needed to get some personal stuff. But, I received an email from my buyer wanting to see me at 4pm to close off some matters. Well, was a little disappointed, but it’s alright, work comes first.

I can shop tomorrow. No worries.

After my appointment with the buyer, I called Mrs Giggs if she was still in the office – my second home. It was 6.30pm and she had to finish up some work before leaving. Yay! And so, I drove over to my second home, visited Mamma Mia and Arrow, and later my ex-boss / mentor who misses me. I chatted in her room for almost 45 minutes, before we all left the building.

I felt comfortable and nice revisiting my old office. How much I missed the environment and the people, it was indescribable. I missed where I used to sit, my messy table and cabinets filled with files…. Good memories!

Mrs Giggs and I went to SS2 to meet up with 2 other friends for dinner and yum char session. One of them came back from Singapore as it was a public holiday, and so she came back to enjoy the long weekend with her family here. I made a move at 12.10am as I was feeling tired and I need to be at an event tomorrow morning.

It was overall an ‘okay’ day. I braved through the day seeing my buyer as I kept Guardian Angel’s words behind of my head – a reminder…. And the best thing is, another day is over and it’s nearing to the day he is back! Double yay!

Good night, everyone! Happy weekend ahead, ya!

Light at the end of the tunnel

Today was another challenging day. There were issues to handle and difficulties to overcome. I was challenged; I was given objections. I was rather feeling down and frustrated.

I packed up my stuff, turned off my laptop. I took the lift, 9 floors all the way down to ground level. I stepped out and noticed the hallway was quite dark. I then realized it was close to 10pm – the closing time for the building.

While I was walking towards my car in the cool, after-rain-weather, I reflected on the day’s happenings. I realized every challenge and obstacles that I had today actually taught me even more about the business, the company’s processes and handling the situations.

I was not hungry and I guess the Nando's lunch worth the money, but I drove through McD to pack dinner / supper. I had to eat because I've promised Guardian Angel that I will take care of myself while he is away. (I noticed I've put on weight, thanks to the late meals at night lately)

Even though it wasn’t easy and smooth sailing off late, I have something to look forward to this Sunday at 3.45pm. I am waiting patiently for the day to come….. and I am so looking forward for a trip away… The thought of it puts a smile on me.

I better sign off and get myself freshen up.

Work – to be continued thereafter.

Impromptu Photo with Her

She is the first person whom I got close in my team on my first day at work and also the one who bothers her endlessly asking questions.

And….

She is leaving us now.

I will surely miss her and I wish her all the best in her future endeavors and the beginning of her marriage chapter.

;)

*She walked to me for a photo together.

At The End of a Busy Wednesday

I am listening to our song while typing this post.

I was thinking hard of the song this morning while driving to Kepong and while I was scrambling through my handbag to get the USB….suddenly the song was played on air. I smiled. Law of Attraction, perhaps?

It was a very productive day, I would say. I dropped of my laptop and files off at my desk and sent out an email before heading to Kepong to pick up some documents and to have a short discussion with the Finance manager.

I glued my @ss to the chair once I got back at 12.20pm. I didn’t manage to go out for lunch. There were too many urgent and important work to complete before COB (close of business aka 5.30pm) today. (Not forgetting I was OOO – out of office) recently. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel hungry at all. The only meal I had was half a sandwich, 3 pieces of dumplings and a cup of Horlicks in the morning.

I left work close to 9pm. By the time I reached home to pick my family up and to reach the restaurant, it was 9.20pm. By the time we were done with the simple dinner, my watch was showing 10.25pm.

I am feeling a little sleepy now. My laptop is logged on to the server while I am typing this post. I just wanted to have a quick look if there are any urgent emails to reply/ read. Hmmm….so far nothing since the last email received in the office.

I don’t think I will be working tonight. I need my rest for the weekends.

Oklar, I need to sleep now. Eyes could hardly open.
