Reflections...

The past few months has been an emotionally challenging time for me.....especially at work.

I had to decide whether to hang on and be eternally depressed, or to let go and be uncertain in my future career path.

Finally, I chose the second option. A bit nerve-wracking but it surprisingly made me happier than I was the past few months.

I am taking this as a learning experience. I have always been a lucky girl when it comes to bosses, I've always been the apple of their eyes. Well, I work hard (16-hr days is a normal schedule for me!) and is very detail-oriented, that at one point my old boss described me as a perfectionist......I think for most bosses, they like to have hard-working assistants like me.

Not everyone though. That is what I learned now.

There are some people who would rather play office politics than be professional. In a milieu like that, I don't know how to function and I start to digress. I become morose and depressed. My usual efficient self starts to decline and become ineffective.

That is when I decided, I needed a change. A new tomorrow might be uncertain for me....but this I know for sure......the today i have, is not the best time and place for me.

Now, I'm still at a crossroad but at least with a more positive vibe around me. Looking forward to the travels I have planned (Hongkong-Macau-Kuala Lumpur in August) and to staying at home for awhile. And maybe, just maybe there might be a silver lining at the end.....
