Light years

i transferred to a new department in Oct, and it is almost 2 months now. i like the jobscope pretty much, still doing the same stuff but in a different position as a consultant. i get to spend more time to research and learn things which i did not have time to learn in the past, i have time to analyse the data trend of the failure that the customers returned to us , i get to be involved in setting up the procedures for improvement. No longer in a fire fighting role. And i have shorter working hours, Great ! I began to blend into the team too, without much difficulties. Work is so far smooth sailing.

I counted that by 30 Dec 2007 , it would have been 4 years since i am with piggy, and for the past 1 year and 7 months we are living in different countries. we only get to meet each other whenever there is a holiday, thrice or more in a year usually, but there is no strange feeling every time we meet up. it is just that i have become more independant as i am used to loneliness without piggy, he spends every weekend at his fav casino. As time slowly goes by, we both handle the relationship carefully and wholeheartedly , the frequency is always maintained at the same hertz. The fortune teller said that for my horoscope, i need to travel more and be away from home in year 2008 to earn my living and i will have a harder time. i was thinking am i not far away enough from my hometown and lover? Should i work in north pole ? What a curse.

My HK housemate who has taken over my position in my ex department is bringing a bottle of red wine every week. we will both sit in front of the tv and take a sip of red wine every night as winter is approaching. Good life. Weather is nice this year, summer is not as hot , winter is not as cold, i guess it could be due to global warming.

Light years, is a term we used to describe time. It is strange that you get to find the person you like from this earth with its crazily huge population, and spend time with him/ her , hopefully till your or his/her last breath. Yoga teaches us that a slow and calm breath will give you longer life span, that is why tortoise has long life span. But how long is the life span of human beings in this universe when we used light years as a measurement unit ?? A very tiny fraction that could be neligible ?? i do not know . But i do know that every couple in love is lucky although they may have very little time to spend together in this universe.

shanghai ... we are coming

X mas is coming. Piggy and i am planning to go to Shanghai for our holidays. I have bought a book to guide us around the MRT routes, which is the favorite transport of mine. I have been reading about the good eating places/ shopping/sightseeing spots. Winter will be below 10 degree C. It will be a new experience to spend our xmas at the bund in cold weather. I want to spend our time there slow and relaxing. I hope the pig will not fall sick again like he did in korea / thailand / JB / kl / malaca / taipei /hongkong / vietnam/ bali / india / italy / london / singapore ......(Yes, he is that lousy).

It is late autumm now here and winter is around the corner. It's been cold every night even with the heater on and my sensitive skin is beginning to turn dry and itchy. I hope to have less scar this time although my eczema is killing me.

That s all for today.
