My first time in the office

I have two kinds of feelings as I stepped into this corporate office.

One is the kind of familiar yet one that I have not felt for almost eight years. The moment you step into the office, you can almost feel the pressure that's gonna be with you for the rest of the day until you call it a day. And knowing that someone very close and important to you will be waiting for you at home.  I have long abandoned that feeling, thank goodness for that!

Another one is a nicer feeling. Hey, I'm the wife of a senior personnel in this office.  But, thankfully I don't have to greet anyone so as not to conceal my slight anxiety. It's a non-working day. After all,this is my first time stepping into his office.  Well, the feeling that no one is calling the shot, except for him, as his wife, I do have this pride that beams in me.

Needless to say, I took the opportunity to scan through some stuff in his office. A quick one, else I would be 'accused' of prying on his privacy.  I snapped some pictures too, oh, who can live without snapping pictures nowadays, for whatever purpose ?

His is a big office, two and a half of my first office where I used to have a room.  Not wanting to let my mind linger in this 'boring' setting, I delayed not in taking out my laptop and proceed with blogging this and with my online course, apart from checking my mails and facebooking. Something so indispensable in this era!

Till I blog again!

My ambition was to be an accountant

From the first year I reached secondary school until I graduated, being an accountant had always been my first choice ambition.  It was only on my final year in Secondary 5 that my first choice had changed to being a 'Manageress'.  Somehow, as a child, an accountant gave me the impression of being a very highly-respectable profession.  Not only that, one can only call herself an accountant after passing all the necessary examinations.  She can't call herself one just because she holds the title of 'accountant'.  Having knowledge of this respectable profession or rather occupation, as what I knew last time, and the fact that not anyone can be an accountant, I told myself that that would be my choice.  How about doctors and lawyers? Aren't these respectable occupations? Oh yes, they are. And these earn a lot of money too.  I had even  thought about whether I would be able to be a good lawyer as being a lawyer means one needs to ha...

Why people blog?

Why people blog? The latest bug is lurking and penetrating to people from all walks of life, be they politicians, housewives (oh no, homemakers please as they prefer to be called due to their diverse duties), royal blood, retirees, entrepreneurs, corporate high-flyers, celebrities and more common people like me and some of you reading this post. A blogging family of father (the new or 'old' kid of the blog) and daughter , interesting. Actually, Tun Mahathir has been sharing his voices but this time he cleverly uses a different and wider platform. Each blogger has different objective/s. The bug got some into trouble , brings some peace of mind and even prosperity. The power of this bug has been grossly under-estimated until the government's ruling party's so-called unexpected 'defeat'. As for me, a better life is what I'm hoping for. For someone who used to sneer at blogging as a way to 'show-off' one's talents and 'announcing' to the wor...

It's never too late

"No matter where you are in life right now, no matter who you are, no matter how old you are - it is never too late to be who you are meant to be." - Esther & Jerry Hicks. I am already, what my other half describes as 'half-way through our lives'.  Starting out a venture on my own since about three years ago, I never thought that age is a barrier.  I only know that I need to move on and I know that I will not be any better had I stayed where I was. Where we are in life - there is never a right time in life to do something different.  When one has just graduated from college, it's a norm for parents to expect their kids to join the working world to gain some experience as well as to recoup the investment costs in their kids' education. After a few years, one would have accumulated too many commitments to be even bold enough to take a risk doing something on his own in view of the fixed and steady salary.  Then, come the additional precious member...
