BKK

 

Been quiet in October because I was out of town for a few days.

And partly because I have been trying to stay home at least one of the weekends.

Go read about my Bangkok trip in http://ilovelongvacation.wordpress.com/ :)

Hello from Bangkok!



Selfie at Wat Arun :)



And a video taken while climbing the prang (spire)!

Been struggling to be productive at work though - suffering from post holidays syndrome, I guess :P

Oriole Cafe @ Pan Pacific Service Suites

It's been a while since my last post. Nothing worth blogging about, I guess. LOL.
Until Ali's birthday (belated) celebration last Sun at Oriole Café. Thought it's not as crowded as it was before, probably because there are so many coffee places sprouting up island-wide! But still nice. And nicer, because it is not so crowded. Haha.



Thought I will try the competition coffee - Citrus Sin! Quite interesting - imagine coffee and orange. Bitter-sweet. And strong.

And our various choices for breakfast! we all used to be so excited about big breakfast but now... the fad seems to have faded. So I ordered French toast with bacon (top)!



Sharing the basket of fish and chips which I like! :) Not the usual brunch, I reckon.

So happy belated birthday - and we know the birthday girl is happy! Because it was preparations for her wedding after brunch where we gathered at the groom's place to go through the programme - amazing how much efforts people put into their wedding preparations these days. Well, it's (one of) the biggest events of a lifetime, I guess :) And the 'sisters' also discussed our plans to test the love of the groom (and his brothers) for gate-crashing. Haha. We'll see how things turn out. Till that post! Cheers! :)

Happy to say goodbye to September and welcome October

Tomorrow is the beginning of the last quarter of the year. 
Surreal how September/October has an impact on my career in the past year.
Last year this time, I made the decision to leave SS and said goodbye to a job that kind of didn't fit.
And this year, I will report to a new boss after beginning my new role 5 months ago.
Not sure how it pans out but definitely a new start to a new quarter, one of the many new beginnings of the year.
It's complicated but the feeling seems to lean towards the right side of complexity.
Been taking it slow in the last few days of September.
And feeling ready to go all the way in October (or so I psych myself).
Perhaps to make up for the lack of it in the first quarter of the year. Because I still enjoy my job.
Happy to say goodbye to September and welcome October.
