The one with only the memory

Do you remember the first day we kissed?
It still sends chills down my spine.
I wish I could have that one moment back.

The one with the holiday

*Fly the ocean in a silver plane,
See the jungle when its wet with rain,
Just remember 'til you're home again,
You belong to me.*

In 24 hours, I would be on my flight home!! I am so excited. Can't wait to see everyone back home, can't wait to be a glutton and put on a few kilos, downing all the food i've missed. Can't wait to just relax and not be working. Can't wait to shop till I drop! I've probably been planning this trip since forever, and its always getting postponed. It is finally here, and its official!

*Flashback to Monday the 25th*
This is the Monday i had the interview for the promotion. I dreaded this day to be honest. Went in to work, did some recruitment calls, interview a few, and the ironically enough, it was MY turn to be interview. Amberlie and Claire were both interviewing me. And I kinda went in with a clear head that i DID NOT want to take up the promotion, whether or not i got it. And i think my decision was so clear, it showed through my exterior. I was however, answering interview questions half heartedly. Sadly enough, i wasn't disappointed at all at how I was proceeding with the interview. I just didn't bother, cos deep down inside, I knew that neither did I NEED nor WANT the extra pressure/stress/workload/responsibility/watever you wanna call it. I left the interview room with the strangest feeling on earth. One, I felt bad for wasting both, Amberlie's and Claire's time. Two, I felt bad for giving Amberlie false hope/expectations. Three, for feeling good that i blew an interview! See, told ya! STRANGEST FEELING! So yeah, after that I was asked to leave the room, whilst Amberlie and Claire "share notes". After that came to an end, I went back to doing recruitment calls/interview with Claire. And i just felt awful, and horrible, and down :( Claire could see right through me, and asked what's wrong? And I just said I didn't feel right. She was really understanding, so I left it at that for the day. This was only 1pm. So to cheer me up, I went for some retail therapy. Sure enough, I bounced back to being at least 50% happy. Sometime during my shopping spree, Amberlie called me on my mobile, she wanted to tell me that I was not successful in the interview (NOT to my surprise at all!) what are the odds! And i told her, honestly, I didn't feel I was ready for it, and I'm happy where I am at the moment. She also said that she realizes my contributions at work, and that I play a big part to my manager, and any one who manages at my place, would be lucky to have me :) that made my day! So that was my Monday.

Anyhoo, back to packing now! Still got lots to do before i leave. Till then, ciao!
