Post-CNY filler post.

I’m hardly in the mood to be nice to people. Pissed at having to decline an all expense paid trip to Singapore for a phone launch because it’s on a workday (love my job too much to fake an MC). Tired of explaining to people working at petrol stations why I’m not driving a Subaru whenever I’m wearing my uniform. Need to change my car, pronto (of course I wish I could afford a Subaru…not yet anyway. One needs to sit in a really fast WRX STI at least once in their life to know what I’m talking about. No, make that twice.) Well about the car, thinking of something bigger, scarier and can crush helmets. Something big, black and shiny. Not because of the petrol station people, I just need something more comfortable than the crap I’m driving now and Nicklaus is getting his driving license soon. Yeah…being younger = hand me down ;)

My face is slowly healing from the pimples I got over the CNY holidays (read: too much bakkua). I literally had a Subaru logo on the left side of my face. Talk about job pride written all over my face. Ok, you do know what I mean right? 6 stars? C’mon, laugh with me now.

Subaru

LooLoo’s office is very near mine. So we had lunch at Jaya33, some place called Italian Kitchen I think. Not bad. Nice ambient…good for catching up. I love going out with LooLoo cause I won’t feel much like a giant, we’re about the same height and people always think we’re sisters.

Guess if this is me or Looloo?

Sorry I’ve been such a bad blogger. I’m trying to blog more regularly. Looking forward to weekend trip to Cameron with the gang. I think I’m bringing Charlie, yay! Maybe whip out the camera for some shots too, it’s been ages.

I hate quarter life crisis. It makes me such an insecure whinging banshee. I’m pretty sure if I were 5 kilos lighter I wouldn’t be so freaking whiney. But thank goodness, I only whine to Charlie these days. Why? Cause when I talk to people I just get angry. You know, poorly thought out opinions, can’t keep they trap shut after, basically retarded suggestions…the likes. I just rather not say anything. Charlie, I’m glad you can’t speak human. Mommy love you!

Charlie
Charlie got hulk rage like mommy when she got stuck in traffic for 2 hours.

Snippets of life.

So far so good at work. Still early days so I’ve got not much work to do. Could get a lil boring sometimes. Thank goodness my colleagues are a funny and down-to-earth bunch, so it’s very easy to hang out with them. Food around is really cheap too and pretty delicious – a mixture of malay, indian and chinese food. Commuting is about an hour each way, still acceptable by my standards. I haven’t missed all the freedom I had, not yet anyway. You can say that I’m welcoming the routine.

Got a plant and some photo frames for my desk. Got conned at Ikea – very lousy pair of cheap wooden photo frames for RM15. Ended up using the RM5 each I got from Daiso instead, it’s so much nicer then the Ikea one.

My table.
The most important individuals in my life at work with me :)

I miss Sisi. I want to bury my face in her little hairy belly. I wonder if she misses me too?

The most adorable little furball.

Going to catch up with some Gem of Life. The last 2 episodes were boring /yawns. I need to see more Moses and Gigi Lai!!!!

My first moleskine

Yeah, I have succumbed. I needed to get something to celebrate my new job so I (or more accurately the boyfriend) got me a moleskine to mark this milestone in my life. It’s one (the job, not the moleskine) I’ve been pining for weeks and I’m really excited that everything’s confirmed. Signed the dotted line this morning. w00t!

My first moleskine.

Got my own parking space, FOC. Very relieved when I found out about it cause the area where my office is known for horrendous parking. Really excited about this new position. It’s not easy to find a job in a company where you really believe in the product and would proudly endorse it. I have and I’m so thankful.

Yeah, I’m itching to tell the world who I’m working for but lets not be so blatant right. I’ll probably sneak in some clues here and there on the blog soon.

So KimKomm is on hiatus now…to be honest, I’m rather sad to put it on hiatus. Many people have truly believed in me when I started the venture and I feel like taking on this new job is equivalent to abandoning my loyal clients, for without them I will not be where I am. I want to especially thank Tim and co for believing in KimKomm and always recommending my PR services to other people. Motif Etika and Lasseters too of course. You know who you are and thank you, thank you for your unwavering trust in my capabilities.

I’m leaving KimKomm not because it’s not doing well. In fact, it’s doing so extraordinarily well it’s quite unbelievable to me sometimes. I just feel like I need to move on to a different stage in my life. Take on different things and find out more about myself. Simply put it, I’ve gotten answers and closures so to speak on questions about my work ethics, capabilities and confidence from KimKomm so now I need to pit myself against a different environment to see how I’ll fare. Yeah it all sounds so philosophical and blah right but that’s how I feel.

Well, here’s to another chapter of quarter-life crisis, CLOSED. Cheers!
