Pre-occupation

Its been a really long time since I last blogged. Reason being, for the past weeks, I have been glued to the TV in the nights, catching the Korean drama "Da Chang Jin". Admittedly, this is becoming an "addiction" of sorts. When the show started airing on channel U, there was a lot of hype, but I honestly did not find it interesting nor enticing then. But... I started following the plots a month back or so, and yes, I am hooked. So is my mum! It's so frustating having to wait for each episode day by day, and getting distracted by thoughts about the show day after day. Terrible! Tsk tsk!!

So I earnestly hoped to be able to borrow the DVD for the remaining episodes, and finish watching them quick quick. Hopefully, that will free up my time every night from 10 to 11pm++! Thanks SM for lending me the show today, and I watched it for 5 hours continuously. Thankfully, forced to stop for dad to watch the Idols, else I could go on and on and on.

Met up with V yesterday for lunch and had a good time catching up with her. Think that it was a more positive time of sharing as compared to the last time we met. Thank God for that =) Was reminded of the importance of a close walk with the Lord.

Met up with friends over dinner and yes, it was another time of chit-chatting and enjoying one another's company. It was nice. Although I was very tired physically when I joined them, the tiredness kinda melted away as the meal went on :)

At the office front, I am finally going to change dept! Up till early last week, I had no confirmation on the exact date of transfer, so I approached my SM to find out when he returned from long leave. He did not want to defer the move again, so 1 Jun is the date! And so, for the last week, I have been busy preparing for it. The people taking over my responsibilities have also realised the urgency and are more receptive to learn about what I have been doing.

I have also been packing my stuff to be brought over to the new location, 10 mins drive away... Good thing is, I can leave behind all the files pertaining to my current job and not lug too many things over. The bad thing is, I have kept many personal files, and these shall go with me... heavy heavy. Am praying for some nice kind muscular guys to help me with the move, as our admin no longer involves itself with such shifts. And my new office is located on the 2nd floor of a building with no lift!! Can't imagine carrying the boxes and PC up the stairs without help. Anyway, I aim to bring over as little as possible, so have been staying back in office to discard things or bring stuff home to store temporarily. Will bring them to new place when I am more settled in.

Ok, am generally looking forward to the move, just that I will miss some of the people here, especially my immediate bosses - D and Q. Think that they are really nice pp, with good intentions, and they take care of their staff. Am grateful to God for allowing me to find favour with them. The transfer means that I gotta start establishing rapport with new bosses and colleagues, and its no easy thing, given the dept that I will be joining... But God is my refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble!
