Last day of work at CTC

I tendered my resignation on 6th April, and today is my last day of work at Commonwealth Travel Service Corp (CTC Holidays).

There are many reasons why I left the company... but there were reasons that could have made me stay. Unfortunately, the reasons to make me leave overcame the reasons I should stay....

Anyway, it's time to take a break from the never-ending tasks/duties that I have to do with no tangible rewards or thanks or acknowledgment.

Let them fight their own war.

That's all I have to say.

So here I am, officially jobless and now a "tai-tai". I am going to miss my computer with my lovely Hello Kitty Wallpaper.

Anyway since I have lots of stuff to clear and as usual procrastinated for so bloody long, i ended up having to bring one of my mini luggage to lug my things home..

Fortunately I was able to squeeze everything into the luggage, as I only had a few files and documents to bring home. I gave Santi Guniang my "bible" information of all the itineraries and places of interests. Hope she puts it to good use.

By the way, remember I had 6 Hello Kitties sitting on top of my desktop screen?

I took them out one by one as a countdown to my final day, and the last Hello Kitty was plucked down by Santi Guniang who wanted that honour of doing it. LOL!

Anyway, I will miss the company and I am glad for all the opportunities and learning experiences that it has offered me. I will also miss most of my lovely colleagues whom I see more than anyone else as I spend more time in the office than at anywhere else.

What now?

Karma bites me in the eyes!

In case you don't already know.... I am wearing specs now!

My eyesight was a perfect 6/6 for the past 20years or so.... but recently, my left eye saw things in a blurry mode and my right eye is straining to "correct" the vision by working extra hard on to make up for my left eye.

I was so worried that I bugged Brendan to bring me to his optometrist cos I don't know any good ones since my whole family has perfect vision, and Pipimon is also not wearing spectacles.

So he brought me to his friend in Bukit Gombak.. quite an interesting experience, getting specs done. First he used a machine and asked me to look through and just relax. All I see was a tree on a field. =.=

Next, he brought me into a dark room and put on the demo specs on for me and asked me a few questions while keep changing the lens at non-human speed.. like "Is this blur? Is this better? How does this look? Read line 2 for me? Is this making you dizzy? Can you see line 1?"

He is super efficient and super scary fast!

So within less than 15 mins, he diagnosed me with 25/75 vision, right/left.

Apparantly I don't really need glasses but since I see things blurry at night, he recommended me a few frames that are chic and "in"... I don't really know what is "in", since the only specs I have is a pair Gucci sunglasses, but anyways... with the advice of Brendan I decided on.....

Jason is the owner and he is a very very nice guy. His wife owns a pet shop next door and they have the cutest yorkies! :) I hope I remember his name correctly, if not Brendan will kill me. Wahahahaha.

I'm not advised to wear them daily as I need to have some time to adjust to wearing specs.. and I'm told not to use them when I'm using the computer to prevent dizziness.

So what's your verdict? I think I look more..... sophisticated in specs. LOL!
