Update on my milestones cont’…
Took me quite a while to blog again. I had been very busy for the past 3 weeks, handling over work in my previous job to my staff. Then I moved on to a whole new area of worklife which I hope it will be a much better place for me. Oh, before that, Dolphin and I also had our much awaited ‘Meet the Parents’ conference…. Hahaha!!! Here’s the updates.
Meet the parents dinner on 15 July 2007
Yup!!! Finally it arrived. We all went to 避风唐at Bukit Panjang Plaza for a 8 course dinner. Both our parents were insistent on having it simple and to cut down most of the traditional thingy… But during the discussion, some of the traditional ‘must haves’ still popped out. Hahaha!!! I guess being parents, these things would sure exist.
It struck my mind: Next time when our own children get married, how much of these traditions would we remember and practise? Yes, both our parents said as long as we are happy and blessed, these tradition are just…. traditions…. But, come to think of it, these are the very things that make us Chinese, differentiated into the different dialects. I am not advocating practising 100% of the traditions, but at least those meaningful ones.
I will make it a point to blog as detailed as possible our wedding ‘procedure’ and preserve it online. Hahaha!!!
My new job in SPF
16 July 2007: I greeted the day with excitement and a little bit of nervousness as I embark on my new job. This new job would give me a whole new pespective of my job as I can finally see the direct contribution of my work to society.
This would definitely spur me on to work even harder and at the same time, learn more professioal and marketable skills. One week into my job and I really look forward to see all the excitement that’s waiting for me. I will update you all when the time come.
That’s all for now folks. Till we meet again.
