Updates.Complaints.Wishes

Ta... Was so busy over the past two weekends that I didn't have time to blog. Anyway, lots of thing have happen since then. Let's start from today. Finally sent Wendy off today! She made it! She left the organisation! Haha... She gave me a hug before she left and I so WISH that it would be my turn to leave soon. Of course, her parting shot was telling me not to stay so long! Haha... Read the papers recently and realise that Bloomberg and Barclays were both hiring. I haven't check them out yet and it sounds so tempting. Ha... Then where do all my plans go??? Must think think think.

Went to visit Susanna yesterday. She freaked Marvin and I out. Marvin smsed her in the morning and she said that she wanted to hide at home! This set alarm bells ringing in my ear! In the end, we sprang a surprise on her. Only called her when I reached the void deck of her house. Bought her cookies and her favourite peanut butter waffle. Drew her out of her cave and began to crack endless jokes to lighten her up. I think she burnt out. She had been working so hard for the past few months and she really needed a break. As for me and Marvin, it had been such a long time since we really made the effort to visit a member under such an "occasion". We thought we became CGLs. Haha. Anyway, I certainly hope that she is feeling better now. She smsed me in the evening just now and said I made her day and now she is not afraid to on her laptop (on laptop=work). So I assume that she is out of the cave now.

For Sunday, went to send Fiona off to Australia. Everything just seemed so fast. Barely two months ago, she had wanted to change CG and when she made that decision, God gave her the breakthrough. She found a job in Australia and now she is in Australia. Things do happen isn't it? Just when she thought it would take her sometime to find a job in Australia, it happen. God really has way of making things happen. And He really gives surprises. Anyway, I spent two weeks making a memento for Fiona and I was really proud of the finished product. I haven't done personalised presents for quite sometime and it gave me a kick this time. Most of all, I felt I had done something meaningful. She had seen so many disappointments in this CG and I really wanted to bless her before she left. I seriously hoped that the memento did the job. It took me many nights but I was really sincere in making the gift and I hoped it really touched her. When I sent her through the gates, we gave each other a big hug and tears were brimming in my eyes. It took me quite a while to collect myself and the tears didn't flow. Thank God ah. Anyway, she's joining Pst Mark Conner's church. It's a good church for her. I like Pst Mark Conner's preaching.

Last of all, this is a complaint. As usual, its about Mr B. Mr B wrote an email saying that officers like me (which means all the officers in the same position as me) cannot make it and had to plough through waiting for a promotion and if we youngsters could not wait then we would leave the organisation! Arrgh! Is Mr B very old? 40? 50? No! of all ages, just past mid-20s! And we cannot make it?! What aspect?! And I wonder who can't make it in the end! Humph!
