:)

Yeah i know it happens everywhere that most works are given to the newbies. I guess my limit was reached when i wrote that post. A chinese senior colleague told me that when working with the government, we chinese must voice out when we're not happy or else we'll be stepped over.
I'm sooo glad that you old ladies have never treated us that way.
I'm yet to learn how to say no.
Dato told me must learn how to reject people, must not afraid of offending people all the time. Just do what i think is right for me. For me, that is easier said than done.
I think i am lucky to have a malaysian colleague sitting next to me. So from her, i learn the difference between the work culture of here and her country. It's always good when you can compare.

I am seriously deprived of exercise these days. But the good news is, my nephew is discharged from the hospital. I really really hope that there's no more hospital visits.

As for the car hunting, hmm.. i've almost done my decision. I'll go for Kia Sportage because it's $6k more than Hyundai Tucson. My uncle told me Kia shares the same type of engine with Mazda while Hyundai with Mitsubishi. But i'm not buying yet. Maybe will buy it after i come back from Taiwan in March.

Thinking about my taiwan's trip gives me mild headache. Have to spend money again. According to my original plan, my first vacation after i started working should be at least a year after i started. At least by then, i'd have had some savings.
Anyway, since it's my grandpa's wish to go there, nevermind lah.
I think i made a mistake about my grandpa's age. He's 77 this year.. not 60 plus.
Both my grandparents are 70 plus yrs old now. I appreciate the time i have with them. It's so obvious their healths have deteriorated these days. There's nothing we can do. Partly because it's a process of aging. Another thing is, they're quite stubborn, especially my grandma. She never likes to visit doctor, never follows doctor's instruction. Sometimes it can be annoying. i'd wonder, why can't she just give in to her health condition?
Like i know she's not doing the right thing but there's no way i can make her change her way.
I don't know what we're doing now is respecting her or ignoring her.
To my dad's side family, including my dad, visiting a doctor is like cutting their flesh. All they want is short term relief.
I am a health conscious person (i think) so their attitude really bothers me sometimes.

Urrgghhh~ i'm still in the shadow of one incident that happened last week in school. Forgive me for not being able to look at things positively now. I just wanted to help but... ended up in letting someone down.
