Experience: 2010
It has been a slow month for posts because i simply have been tempted by mr. procrastination. There were of course many moments where there's lots to say but just got all too lazy to type them down. No, not even a summarized version of it. Great.
It wasnt till i had to search on inspirations for me to get my personal statement drafted that i googled for blogs. Blogs on nature.com fyi, not those leisure ones because i really need good starting kickofffs. In short, i just need tap fingers inspirations like those of designers and fantabulous writing skills of a writer. From looking at the question to clicking on my blog, again swept over by procrastination. Flectherizing those bombastic english really takes some brain juice. Sigh - never going to get it done. Perhaps i need to incubate myself in the library and immerse in the wonders of english and literature. Ask me to be a sales executive? i think i'll never hit the million dollar club. No idea how to promote myself.
It was one of my aim to jot down things i've gone through in the last quarter of the year -those little things i've gone through, but of priority my partial backpack memorable but horrible (quoted from yunqin in actual words) china trip experience. BUT! 5 mins after my determination could last, i got all lazy in uploading the pictures. And so, it never did appear on my blog.
I remember a colleague asked if i set any new year wishes... i told him i never had the habit to, because most possibly, i wouldnt be able to adhere to it. Things never go the way u expected anyway. Nevertheless, giving the question a thought, i replied - to learn. To learn as much as i can. He said it was a chim answer, but to me it couldnt've been more straightforward than it is. I want to learn, to absorb as much techniques as possible. I did, this year. One of the most satisfying thing when i updated my cv was the "Skills/Techniques" section.
However, i think in the midst of endless grumblings and complaints, i was given something more than just learning the techniques. I've learnt about the volatility of environment, the "double-edged" comments, many many other things. I saw this much, heard that much, felt so much. Im sure, even to my 200% confidence, everyone felt the same. Perhaps in different aspects, but im confident among the aspects, work is one of them. Therefore, i learnt alot.
Accompanying me this year was the usual group of friends whom have always been there for years and counting. Though we may have shifted slightly from lattice structure to ionic bonding, not being as spontaneous as ever, i somehow know someone has got your back.
I am grateful for everything that i have this year, i have new surprises. I have a lovely cake from Adrian, i have heartwarming birthday treats, i have nice colleagues to go to lunch with, i have josephine to share my every evening grumblings (she never gets sick of me, thankfully). I have yunqin, jielin, jac, nelson who keeps in contact with me still, when they're at different parts of the world.
I therefore think, my 2010 is well-fufilled. Though perhaps half of 2010 may not have been a bed of roses. Still, the checklist for 2010 wish: checked and fufilled!
