当时的月光

while walking home from bishan mrt earlier, i remembered an excerpt from this book i read some time ago - 一路上有你真好, a book i had since my secondary school days, which resonates well with my inner self:

时间改变了、关系也改变了,月亮仍放射它的光芒,引领夜归人踏上旅途。只是当时的月光已不复以往的的记忆,有欢笑,有雀跃,也有依靠。如今,我只能自己独自的勾勒当年月光的轮廓。

走向黑夜深处,走过寂寞的小巷,陪我走的仍是月亮。

the missing period - reminiscence

i have finally decided to resume my blogging as i have more free time on my hands recently.

for as long as i have gone missing in action, many things have happened in my life.  frankly speaking, more bad things have happened that good ones.

looking back, the subsequent two months after my return from the china trip were the happiest times in my life, and i thought i had my prayers answered but, well, happy times dun last.  at least this is a fact i need to get used to in my life.  though i am trying my best to try for miracles until this very day, as my sentiments have never changed, i guess, chances could be very slim.  is this what the chinese like to say - 有缘无份?

anyway, i have shifted to bishan for quite some time.  i'd say bishan is a decent location to stay in.  it is centralized and getting to most parts of the island seems less of a hassle. by a stroke of luck, i managed to get a decently priced room with very good landlords :)

2010 came and go, and with the advent of 2011, things went downhill.  i hate this year as soon as it arrived.  many things were all happening all at once that i almost couldn't cope.  i couldn't focus much on my work, and, with the closing of march, i had a switch of job, into something of a different realm altogether.

with this new job, i put in plenty of effort so as to keep my mind occupied, and also partially because i find this new job scope interesting.  anyway i feel that my efforts have bear some fruits and was appreciated and recognized. overall i find working in this current company much more pleasant and enjoyable with decently good bosses.  well, decently good bosses are a rarity nowadays!

anyway, july will be a busy month for me.  i'll be working on a european project and my working hours would then start from 3pm.  i will be visiting bangkok with a group of friends for leisure in mid-july, after which i may have to fly over to london to attend to the project.  right after the national day in august, i'll be flying to bangkok again with my poly classmate, this time to visit some thai friends and we intend to hop over to chiang mai.

that sums it all up, my m.i.a period.
