(no subject)
been back for 5 days .. guess the trauma of finding out i have a psycho for a boss took me a while to settle back in.. also the rush off again early this saturday morning is really stressing me out. truly miss posting in LJ.. i have nothing to look back to!
have also realised there're many pages of LJ friends to catch up! all the news i've been missing out on!
went to Fu Lu Shou to have a picture of my aura taken today... very painless indeed hehe.. not too sure what it all means. Received a computer printout with the photo, but obviously it's a cut-and-paste deal, so am feeling rather clueless and searching for info on the net.
Feels tremendously good to be back and seeing all my friends and family again. i've missed everyone so much! don't think i've ever felt so happy to return home... not that Hong Kong is bad, i like the hi-energy level there and think it's great for a holiday, but living there is another story - or perhaps it was compounded by the situation with my job. I don't particularly want to have such a stress-filled life, or feel so much pressure to socialise... there are people who enjoy it of cos (e.g. lai! haha).
Guess the past two months have a kerzillion lessons embedded within about tolerance, adapting and other people etc - but probably the one driven home most clearly that success is how you choose to define it. I've always believed that, but seeing my boss in action at work and at home, or rather the results of that, has really seriously completely hammered it into my head that one has to live by one's own definition of success, and that we have to stand back now and then to check that we haven't been swept up in the rush of daily life and gone totally off-track.
