8th March 2017 is International Women's Day! Here. we get used to call it "38妇女节". Yet, it has a better name so called "女王节" in China. I like this name rather than the first one. Last year, our company gave us a rose and chocolate. I wondered why we didn't get the same this year. In China HQ, women are given half day off today. How I wish we have the same benefit here! One of our colleagues told us that they even have gift exchange session during this day, some kind of celebration and appreciation for women.
Well, this is not my main sharing as for this post. Just wanna to write something in order to start writing for this post. You are absolutely right! This is my first post for year 2017! Writing blog requires patience, time and mood. It is not hard to find out that the number of posts of mine is getting lesser and lesser. Why is it so? I am not quite sure. Perhaps it is due to factors mentioned just now. After we started our working life, our free and easy time have been reduced "significantly". Total of 8 hours or even more have been spent on our work. How much time left for ourselves? I believed everyone is just the same. Now, I seldom see people update their blog as well. It's so hard to get updated of their recent movement. Luckily, the power of social network site is much more than blog! You can still see people post their latest news, including where they go for vacation, who get into a relationship, who is getting married and etc.
So, what's my latest update? If you are my FB friends, you shall be able to know my latest update. Yes, during the end of last year, I have make it to plan a 3 days 2 nights countdown trip for my family. It is the very first time I booked hotel online and outlined the trip. Actually, the new sightseeing places are suggested by other travelers on website. With the technologies today, you don't really need to know how to go to those sightseeing places. All you need is only GPS and a driver. Thanks daddy who always be my driver! We had traveled to Melaka and Batu Pahat. We had fun throughout the trip! I can't believe there's such beautiful place in Malaysia until I went there.
Chinese New Year 2017 fall in January. This year, we didn't go for oversea trip like what we did last year. Yet, I still enjoy every moment at hometown. Many of them take whole week leave as they could enjoy 10 days holidays. I came back to work on the 6th day of CNY. My work wouldn't allow me to take long leave. It's even going back for 6 days, I still brought my laptop home. You would definitely panic when you can't get connected to Internet. It is not because you can't browse FB, it's all due to your work! I had 2 bad experiences of bringing laptop to go for vacation. Hopefully it won't repeat in my life. Why can't we get a well rest during our holidays?
I have too much of dream and too much of targets! Yet, I have lack of courage to achieve them! Who can be my motivator? Sometimes, I am thinking of the meaning of life...What shall we achieve in our life? I am a very simple and ordinary girl. I just wish to have a simple life and doing what I like. For me, happiness is not about how rich are you. It's about you enjoy every single moment of what you doing.
I wish I could go through all the challenges and enjoy taking challenges. Can I? hmm...I think I need a very strong goal for me to get further and further. Traveling is my goal! You know what I like taking plane! I enjoy seeing plane in the sky. It gives me a feeling of hope! If I reach the height requirement, I would have already registered cabin crew training. It won't realize anymore and so I am finding other ways to travel.
Sometimes, I am thinking what's my talent and how can I "utilize" it in my career. I hope I can find a job whereby I have great passion in it. Also, to find a life partner. Perhaps having a person to share your ups and downs, you would have more courage to face your challenges! Yet, being a "people-thought" quiet person and small networking are the obstacles of my goals.
Perhaps my writing is not as smooth as previous post. Indeed, the less use of English in writing or speaking has impacted on my command of English. Live in Chinese culture for too long time....
