Chilling out
i went to cafe del mar with my cardiac girls. i enjoyed the ambience. it is a good place for drinks and chilling. Anyway i just realised red bull vodka was not too bad. thumbs up!









the sweetest thing for the day is my dearest ming. he drove down to harbourfront from home and picked me at around 2.30am. with the fact that he is actually working the following morning. how nice yeh? despite his exhausted face with the unglam tees and berms, he still looked charming. perhaps his trust, his understanding, his considerations and his love have conquered all. i just love him the way he is. muacks.


Love, Shandy.

Last day

Today is my last day of duty with Johns Hopkins Medical Centre. i have 4 others whom i know made this tough decision with me. i believed everyone who arrived with this final option has a strong supporting reason though it varies individually. Despite the considerable push factor, there are still emotional concerns. - people that we will miss and memories that we will reminisce. regardless of trivial or significant help, everyone who have came in along the way gave me learning opportunities. it is amazing and challenging to meet different people and deal with them.


This last stop for the nearing 2 years in johns hopkins IMC have suddenly raked the sentimental portion of me. i want to express my genuine gratitude to all. in particular my most adored buddy. she has been my pillar of support, my motivation for perseverance at certain point of time. she then eventually became my complaints container, my official unpaid secretary, my lunching companion and a really good confidant. this 2 years working together have strengthened our bond more than the 3 years we shared in polytechnic. she never whined over the thousands of calls i've thrown to her. when i go on leave, she gets busy because she have to do the necessary for me. ;p we shared many laughters together and gossips were endless each day. there were so many incidents which were still vivid in my mind. those were the good old days. i have moved on. we have moved on, towards different directions. but i still pinned a little hope we may somehow cross path again.

Besides this dearest friend, many were worth mentioning as well.
1. Foongli who never fail listen to me
2. jeremy's jokes that kept me occupied and his considerations for me which includes covering for my mistakes
3. tian wei who have been my problems consultant
4. chue har who is the best efficient role model for me but nevertheless my best companion for daily gossips
5. wong, a really kind-hearted soul who aided me lot along the way.
6. mary, xiao lao pan, auntie doreen, wendy, cindy more and more.
today my heart became exceptionally heavy. the feelings is not compatible to what i expected. isn't it supposed to be relieving and joyous? erm...

as the same working routine proceeded over the day, my mind were occupied elsewhere. “This is my last day.” kept emerging in my brain.

anyway I got some presents from my coworkers, countless of warm handshakes and few hugs. They almost make me tear. Oh my god. I became extraordinarily emotional. Now I sat in the quiet room of mine, trying to recall every moment that I’ve shared with them. Erm.. Perhaps it would be the last time I’ll raked up these emotions. Because I know its time for me to move on for better prospects and more learning opportunities.

will i meet another "buddy" in my new company? will i have endless gossips and sharing in the pantry? am i able to adapt in the new environment? ultimately, i have to move into the new environment to find out the answers to all.




Love, Shandy.

change
After some sincere considerations, i have decided to move on. it was absolutely a tough decision. perhaps i brought everything upon myself. i sent out 20 resumes, 5 responded. there were 2 rounds of interviews each for the 5 which i was shortlisted. out of 5, 4 offered me with job of different designations. nevertheless, i was really glad i had a choice of 4. but i was totally confused and disorientated with the options. blame myself for the extreme fear of losing and being excessively competitive - kiasu.

can you imagine? when i received calls for arrangement of interviews, i could not even remember which company matches which position i applied. it was disaster. thank god we have our worthy invention - internet emails. i simply acknowledged all the calls - pretending to be totally aware of the everything. because i know they will end the conversation with "i will send you an email with the interview details." haha..

anyway i accepted the offer as research technician at Pfizer clinical research unit, SGH. the reason is simple:
1. research is the field i've longed to try.
2. they offer the highest salary.

please tell me i made the right choice. ~god bless~

i am young. and i think i still can afford to shop around in the industry before i finally rest my feet on one. perhaps at the age of 35. i am sure these few stops will be good experiences for me. i can't wait to start work, but on one hand i am a little nervous. Jia you!


Love, Shandy.
