First post of New Year 2011
Wow wow wow.. it has been a very very long time since i last blogged. A lot of things has happened and I'm so glad that everything goes well with me.. Praise the Lord..
Before I begin, happy 2011 to all of you! In case you don't know, I have been working in A Star ever since I graduated in June 2009. I enjoyed lab life a lot.. in fact my relationship with everyone, including with my gf, grew exponentially during these period. I love my boss Katja and my best friend Ying Xiu in lab. I love the working environment and the time spent having lunch with my gf and uni friends. However no matter what, I believe strongly that I will not be staying in science field forever. Hence I have just made a surprising move: I quitted my wonderful job and went ahead to help my dad in his hawker business selling fried oyster, fried kway teow, hokkien mee and carrot cake.
In fact i'm not sure if i made the right decision. By doing so, I will be spending less time with my gf, I will have to leave my excellent boss, I have to be in a hot and extremely oily environment to work in, and my relationship with my parents may be worse in the long run due to unforeseen conflict. Anyway I have already worked for 2 weeks now and everything is still alright.
Most important news is that I have successfully proposed to my girlfriend! I wouldn't say it's a surprising move, but it has been the most wonderful thing I have did in my entire life. I remembered from the days i'm in primary school, secondary school, JC and army being single and feeling "unwanted"... especially in the army when I even felt no one on earth care whether i'm dead or not, other than my parents who attended my Passing Out Parade in BMT.. I chased after so many girls, and none of them really wanted me to be their bf.. felt very miserable.. until one day I found this beautiful girl dressed with an angelic white cover on the first Biostatistics lecture.. Thank you so much for willing to accept the imperfect me.. thanks so much for accepting me as who I am.. Thanks so much for your love.. Thank you Lord for your wonderful arrangement.. Indeed, there is a time for everything.. right now I just want to share with you my life which God has so abundantly blessed me with.. I don't want to wait until I lose you to learn to appreciate you.. I just want you now..
Having worked for 2 weeks, I'm still trying to adapt to the new working environment. Made many friends with uncles and aunties, and some are really funny. Most importantly, they treat me as adult and not as a kid though i'm the youngest.. I manage to learn how to cook carrot cake and fried oyster efficiently, and still trying to learn fried kway teow and hokkien mee. Rest assurred, once I have master the cooking, Singapore will still have fried kway teow to eat for the next generation to come. I will not let this food culture extinct.. ( hopefully.. :P )
Last but not the least, I hope everyone will be able to do things you like.. not because of money, not because of fame, but because you enjoyed your job and enjoyed every moment working.. something I learn from an auntie.. :) smile always! Life is too short to feel sad..
