Another amazingly delayed post

Wow, it's been forever since I posted and everyone has probably stopped checking this site for updates. But I've been so busy with work and life, and barely had any time to think let alone contemplate and blog. I reckon it's a good sign when blogs are not updated, i.e. to say, blogging is a reflection of boredom for some (at least in my case it is!).

Anyways, quick updates of the recent past:

- Working my ass off on a daily basis, the hours are long and the work load is heavy, but at least the days pass fast and I learn new things all the time. I like the responsibility they've given me although the lack of structure in certain things and a solid training when I started makes me feel like i'm standing on shaky ground sometimes. When do we begin to realise what our calling in life is if we haven't already? I know I could do this for a couple of years, but it's time for me to set some new goals to work towards. That's the part I'm finding slightly tricky...

- Been getting up to some new activities, recently been going for Kickboxing classes, Pilates, Go-karting, and currently planning a snowboarding trip (possibly) for early next year.

- Getting closer to people I 'neglected' during university because I was so caught up with my course etc. Sad truth is, all my closest girlfriends left the country...so now i'm left dealing with friendships with guys. Sometimes it's just not the same...

- 'Lost' one of my favourite people because she went back to Singapore/Cairo. Farzina, if you read this I really miss you!!! London's just not the same without your familiarity around. I'm really glad that you're doing so well in Cairo though. When did you realise that journalism was your calling btw? [ooh and i like your web portfolio thing!]

- Met up with another one of my favourite people last week. Carole Yang, who I haven't spoken to in ages but enjoyed every minute with when we met up. It's amazing how much I realised/learnt about the similar situations we are/were going through! In that respect it was really nice to talk to someone who understood my situation and could truly sympathise.
I wonder if we'll be the same with our Kids in the future...

- Been spending Waaay too much money on shopping, every week I have to buy a new piece of furniture/clothing/make-up/accesory...anything you name it! However, my wardrobe is looking quite in Vogue at the moment, altho I currently have a very strange quote unquote Retro hairstyle now...I can't figure it out myself.

- Christmas Office Party for the whole of the the Operations Technology and Finance Division is this Thursday, and it's going to be a blast! I've bought a new (yes expensive) dress from Coast and need to get it altered by Thursday! aahhh adrenaline rush...if not safety pins need to be bought. I'll try to get around to taking photos, and actually uploading them so you guys can see what my retro haircut is all about.


- On a not so happy note, i don't think Amrit will be coming to visit me in London anymore. It was the one thing i was soooo looking forward too. But I completely understand where he's coming from. We'll just have to find another way of meeting each other. Can you believe its been over 5 months now!

- Still haven't gotten around to planning my life goals out.

- Oh yeah, and most importantly, this will be the first xmas /NYE that i won't be spending in Singapore with the family. I love Singapore during December, all the decorations/parties/dinners/shopping/clubbing/people home on holiday...just everything. Very Sad :( Everyone think of me okay!!!
