the only constant is change

how true

heard of a few resignations at the old workplace the past week (few = 3?)

got to know of 3 peers who are leaving/have left their jobs too

isit just us? the 84s who can’t stay in a place more than 3 yrs, who is constantly looking for sth new

maybe, going to cs 7 yrs ago was “wrong” – too generic and we end up tired of what we’re trained to be involved in

but i wouldn’t make a different choice if i had the chance to

i’d choose the same road again, and hopefully make less mistakes along the way. dor was right. i saw the stage and felt this strange feeling of loss. i walk past shops playing leh lio and i feel a tug at my heart. i pick up brochures of events and immediately look for the sponsors listing. i go to malls and think back to the nights and days i spent there. i see heng bus and tries to hide a smile.

stop.

trying VERY hard to have a positive attitude. i knew what i was in for right from tt fateful night when i clicked “submit” at 1am. waking up at unearthly hours, restricted times to go for vacations, dress code, adapting to a totally new envt tt includes meeting new ppl. so y is it tt these things keep popping into my mind and making me regret my choice?

sq was right. i’ve been familiar with the old place for 6 / 7 yrs. this new place? a week. can’t compare it this way. one day the new will also become the old.

i tried to think of the “bad” things tt turned out ok. waking up early – at least i can be home early too! as early as 3pm! restricted vacations – there are a couple of long wkns so 3D2N is still possible. or, at least i can save $! dress code – with mass run on M & W, i can wear running attire the whole day. so tt leaves only 3 days to wear sth more proper. and “proper” is not exactly office wear too. phew! adapting – i’ve always tot i can adapt rather well. if i want to. so let’s try that n stop dwelling on the past. and another plus point.. i save transport $$ cos i’m jus taking feeder bus. and canteen food is cheap! and now that nora and i are closer, it helps to have a fren in the new envt. we’ve even started bitching abt our mentor??? haha

i knew it was gg to be hard, i just didn’t expect it to be so hard.
