这个世界上什么人都有… Some like to work with clear goals and clear instructions, some work well with unclear aims and instructions, while some prefer unclear aims but clear instructions. For me, I like to work with clear aims, but they need not necessarily come with instructions. I want to know what is to be achieved with the … Read more


人生很难预料;多数时候,安排的事情总不会发生,而发生的事情往往都是预想不到的。也许,人生中自由安排,而每一次的安排,都是一种试验、一种磨炼。 People tend to plan ahead, although 计划永远赶不上变化; things most often than not do not pan out the way we wanted. When I was choosing my secondary school, I hoped to go to Anglican High because it was quite close to my house then and it was a not-too-bad SAP school (I never thought I … Read more


左右为难,也许这就是人生。 If you are on a ship that you feel is about to sink, what will you do? A) Jump to the next ship b) Stay with the ship and hope that you are wrong, or wait for someone to save the ship and perhaps get rewarded


我一向相信命运(虽然我也相信人能改变命运),相信命中注定,也相信每一件事情的发生都有它的原因。 There are always 2 sides to a coin. Nothing in this world is 100% good or 100% bad, it’s just the perspective that has been taken.

明天,又是一个全新的开始。 In less than 24 hrs, I’m no longer unemployed and my new fate will unfold.. What will I be doing? How will the people there be like?

想太多,是不果断的表现,还是思想周到? Sometimes, I think too much.. Of the consequences of my actions/decisions and of how things will turn out later. It’s scary as I have the tendency to overthink, even on small things such as buying a gift. If I decide to buy a gift for a friend, I will consider how my friend will … Read more


辞职,是否代表一切都不一样了,还是一切还能回到原点? One of my friends tendered his letter recently, about 2-3 weeks before my resignation. However, what happened in the end was vastly different; he retracted his resignation instead. News of his resignation had filtered to the CFO and the CFO had asked him to stay on. My friend, bold and frank as ever, told … Read more


千万个感恩与感谢。 虽我第一份工作已画下句点,但这七个半月的回忆是永恒的。 It is 2.30am and it’s one of those rare days I am awake at this time. I guess it’s because I’m still digesting what has happened to me and to my time in DOS. All of a sudden, I’m not a civil servant anymore (though I am still one today – theoretically) and … Read more


你很可爱。 That was what a colleague actually said to me not too long ago. I was in the pantry refilling my bottle then when this male colleague suddenly approached me and said “你很可爱”. I was taken aback and was really shocked, partly because we did not have much interaction despite having several meetings before. What … Read more


Had dinner with Sandra and Shihui after work on Friday at Out-of-the-Pan in Raffles City. I have longed to try the crepes as I am always attracted by the smell.
