Rollercoaster Week

Some good and bad moments this week. Drinks last Friday with broker, traders and a couple of sales guys came along. Jacko came along too! Got to know a girl from broker called Alicia who was super friendly and we hit it off right away. We ended up chatting tog the whole nite! Haha. 1st time that I see almost everyone high from drinking! Luckily I was still quite alright. :p Went to work extra early on Monday morning in anticipation of a very busy day due to the US downgrade. Work load was pretty normal surprisingly. By 10am, I was drained from work and the very nice pantry lady made me a cup of green tea without me asking her to. She wanted to make me coffee but saw that I already had a cup of coffee before that, hence gave me green tea instead. Small little action but extremely sweet and heartwarming to me. :) Dinner with Irene from sales and Yuhui after work as Irene would be leaving SG to work in HK office. :( Wish I can go with her too... Tues was the day where it went crazy ...

21 years and counting...

Irene cried last night. Her son has a form of autism - a bit of ADHD and has some problems understanding questions and responding to it. Not to mention that he is also quite a weak boy in terms of his health. I know how she feels as a mother.. Worried and hence the tears. But he's still young and lots of kids have such problems. They will outgrow it in future. So I told her about me when I was young. I refused to talk to anyone til I was about 4 or 5. Refused as in I never uttered a single word. When visitors came to our house, I'll run and hide in the room til they have left before coming out of the room. That was me. Gram thought I was born deaf and dumb so she made mummy bring me to the doctor for checkups. Then as I grew older, I started talking. But I also kept falling sick. Had to see the doctor almost once or twice a month. I know mummy was very sad about my condition. Maybe it stressed her out too, just like how it is for Irene now. Maybe that's why mummy decided to...

I think I've said this quite a number of times but once again, I am glad and thankful that I'm blessed with nice people and friends. And 1 thing I know for sure - I'll never regret my decision to move to this department to be surrounded by even more wonderful people. K bought a bottle of herbal tea for me during lunch, much to my surprise. I'm having this horrendous pimple outbreak and he noticed it while we were chatting last evening at work when I worked late. The herbal tea buying was a out of the blue moment for me and I was really touched. :) Thanks K for the wonderful thought! Sometime back, when I was hungry, B gave me Kinder Bueno. 1 of the mornings last week, I was hungry and he bought me siew mai. Somedays he'll give me apples. Or my favourite corn soup from MOS Burger coz I'm feeling cold and hungry in the office. All the little actions touched my heart. Thanks for being a great friend cum buddy! And thanks to Yuhui for helping me buy my last minute r...
