20 Jul 2012 (Mon) Back to Work


I am back! Yes, from a 3-month hiatus from blogging!

And during these 3 months, I went for a short 4 days 3 nights trip to Penang with my family in June.. which was lots of fun as the company was great! I haven’t travel with them for a long while. Hotel was comfortable, food was not bad but the weather was just too warm to enjoy any sight-seeing during the day! So we ended up in shopping malls and chilling out at our comfy hotel suite most of the time.

However, I don’t think I will be traveling to Malaysia for awhile.. Been to JB, KL, Genting, Penang, Kota Kinabula, Kuantan.. it seems like Malaysia never fails to disappoint! Especially on their level of hygiene and service standard. And on the recent trip, I found that the Penang Airport was so small, dirty, hot and confusing. Enough said.

And in July, we had a 1-night staycation at Hard Rock Hotel.. I love nothing more than to spend time with my family and I enjoyed myself very much swimming with my sis, eating at the new Malayan Foodstreet foodcourt and playing cards with Desmond, mum, sis till the wee hours! We also got to visit the very new Equarius Hotel, RWS on the subsequent weekend as Desmond got a very atas room.. it was just too bad that we didn’t get to spend a night there.

But the biggest piece of news from the past months has got to be my change in status - from a ‘stay-home-mum’ to a ‘working mum’. I have started work for a week.. no longer in the fields of events (trainings/ conferences) but working as a Personal Assistant. It has been a very tough week as I am not used to waking up this early every morning, staying out for such long hours, being away from Lucas for the entire day and adapting to the corporate culture of a Chinese company. Though difficult, I am trying my very best to hang in there because I believe that this might be the best arrangement for all 3 of us in the long run. I might be complaining day in and out, but at the end of the day, I am grateful for the way things turned out to be. So pls, more good things to come my way!
