to the one who danced

due to the nature of my work as auditor, it has become a norm to notice that colleagues come and go. usually the ones who come are juniors while those who leave are seniors. with this recent departure of another senior, i can't help but feel a bit sentimental about it. he, who is leaving, was the one who danced at client's place for us, the junior associates. the act was really silly and i laughed. it is the thought of trying to lighten us up that make me feel that i have made the right choice to choose this company all along. the strong point has always been the people. he is also the first senior i had for my engagement.

all the best to mr kok. may this be a new and wonderful beginning. 

on the side note, today marks the first attempt to marathon. wheeeee.... it is quite challenging. but part of the challenge was me reaching late due to poor time estimation. i started off late and yet i managed to complete 10km within 1 hour and 15 min. thats not too bad. *a pat on my shoulder. the senior did run in the marathon as well. though not said, i viewed as my departure gift to him. 

to the first and hopefully many more to come

a new revelation

as time goes, you get to know yourself better. it is best to say that i found myself getting used to not surrounded by people as much anymore. i used to like to be surrounded by people but yesterday dinner with a bunch of college mates suggest otherwise. i feel a bit awkward now.

you may say i have changed. but one thing never change, the same chap who used to talk very loud, aka politician style still very much maintains the same Mr Teoh. it defies the constant notion that things change. a law degree who is auditing. fresh perspective i would say.

but sorry to say, i enjoy less yesterday. i wonder why. does this feeling comes with maturity? i now speak more with my thoughts. i think more now, i keep more things inside my heart.

what do you think?

the thing that is constant

when i first heard of this, probably it came from a friend who wrote this on my yearbook. at that time, i was still unsure what did this sentence meant. as life moves on, you learn the deeper meaning of this sentence. it probably reflects well on how i think, who i meet and the way i live now. at the very least, i have learned to view it from a positive note. when nothing is constant, it gives me the opportunity to grow, to learn and to be a better me. it also tells me that it is alright for people to come and go. as old friend goes, new friend comes along but the memory stays. it gives me a greater push to create better memory.

yea, the thing that is constant is nothing ever stop changing.

My first EY medal and hopefully, many more to come =D

Back to my usual active self. Bring it on.

The people I didn't know I could play a game with

the interesting thing of the day

With much time on hand in office, i decided to have a read on the belated Yasmin Ahmad's old blog. I just wanted to kill some boredom. I literally felt asleep. This is actually a luxury seldom obtained by assurance associate. Must be my lucky day today. 

Well, I come across one of her article, it felt that she was talking in person. She is definitely a person who had left behind a legacy. It is very difficult to find a similar person with such optimism in life. But I learn a lesson for today; we have to believe our instincts. with the right intention, it will eventually be rewarded and noted. 

To end this, this is quote that sends the chill down my spine:

If your intentions are pure, if you apply your craft with a view to observe humanity and, ultimately, God himself, very often something powerful will surface. And the next thing you know, hordes of strangers from all around the world are stepping forward to tell you "the story of their life or how their father died." 

i will pray for you

it is an ordinary day. working in the office as usual. a colleague is getting married soon. hence my good luck wishing and envious display for having 4 months of leave. who takes a 4-month marriage leave anyway? then she popped up the question, so bila nak cari gf. i was like.... errr.... when the time is right la. i told her i am not really setting very high expectations. after telling her that, she said no worry, i will pray for you. i was like. okay. i got this question a lot lately. omg. if it reaches a state when you colleague prays for you, i have nothing else to say.

miss right, where art thou?

i ain't rushing, just a little curious how you would look like
