Time to take stock of Week 1 at the new place. All in all, it has been a good week. Got my laptop, blackberry and all connected already. That is especially crucial since people I work with all all scattered around the globe. This week alone, I have done more conference call than I have in the last 10 years!!! Now that I have spoken to more people, i feel a little more assured that I will be able to deliver up to expectations.Of course, there will be tonnes for me to learn but then I believe I will be able to contribute positively as well. Hmm….maybe that positive-ness wouldn’t always stay within me..but I got to! Got to believe that I will be able to handle this job well. Much I get alot of support from the boss and team in the States, London and HK. Much weighs on me cos I am the Asia Pacific rep and it is me and me alone.

People in the workplace here are nice. Where I am sitting it is generally female-dominated and though from different divisions, we are in the same age group so it is quite fun. And what is doubly reassuring is that I have met quite a few mothers of young kids here. So if they can balance both the demands of their job and motherhood, I believe I can too. For some of them, their kids are even younger than our little fella. So one of the questions I keep asking them is ..”How do you handle both travelling on the job and ur kids?”. That is something that I am really apprehensive about because M is so sticky to me now. It is always Mummy this and Mummy that. Talking about the little one, he sure is growing up so quickly. Last night, he was running around with his cousins and all in the club. He is the youngest amongst them( 3 boys and 1 girl) but he was running around with them all the same. He had a head on collision with his cousin and whilst that boy had a red patch on his forehead, our little coconut head seemed unaffected. Must have been tired though..fell asleep in the car on the way back. Yesterday was a treat cos he also stayed up past his usual bedtime of half past eight.

Well…lunchtime over and back to work now.Oh..lunch was good today, had nice company and nice food. Iz was/is on leave so he came down to lunch with me before gng to his playground ( the PC show). Hope he buys a laptop bag for me We went to the Jap restaurant and I had some collagen ramen. Was tasty and maybe if I drink it enough, I wun need Botox in future.Hahaha
