Decisions..

Realised that I have been making major decisions and changes to my life lately.. First was the major decision to leave my work place due to some reasons.. 

The next ‘big’ decision that I just made awhile ago is probably of no meaning to most of you.. But to me, its probably quite an important one. I decided to leave the WoW realm and server that I have called home for the last 1 year.. It is the place where I made the most progress as a raider in my WoW life.. 

Alot of things have been happening and I havent been happy ingame.. so we decided it was time to leave and head back to the previous realm where I called home.. 

I know… Its pretty dumb to be so involved in a ‘make-believe’ world.. But to me, its a pretty important part of my life.. 

It was one of the catalysts that sped up my previous breakup.. It was one of the major things that helped me tide over the ‘emo’ nights after the breakup.. It was where I met a few close friends who spent time with me and cheered me up when I was at one of the lowest points in my life.. It was also cos of WoW that I met Kiki.. So I guess ya.. WoW’s a big part of me.. 

Anyway, just posting about this cos feeling quite ‘grumpy’ over the transfer of realms.. Initially wanted to post a goodbye to some of the nice friends I’ve made over there but decided against it cos I don’t want to seem like I am making a big hooha over my leaving.. And not to mention I am bringing along with me, their MT for raids.. 

Ah well… goodbye Prevalence. Goodbye Gurubashi.. 

Aloha AV!!!!!

Woot!

Alright.. I have been pretty hush hush about this matter cos I didnt want anyone reading this but I guess can announce some stuff.. 

For those of you who know, I was involved in a company bout 2 years back. Recently I made the big decision to leave the company, as in sell off my shares and venture back into the corporate world.. Those closer or whom I have met lately will probably know the reason so I shan’t repeat here cos its pretty personal..

It was a pretty big and major decision to make but I guess its for the greater good of everyone. I guess someday if the company makes it big and I look back, I will regret to a certain extent. But I will also be happy for my other 2 partners who made it through and be glad that I was once part of it all.. 

So anyway. The last few weeks were spent combing the internet and job sites to find a new job.. I found a job! I got offered to what I initially thought was my dream company and a dream job cos it was my passion. I accepted their offer verbally but lately heard some stories about the company being famous for office politics, making me regret a little. Went for a couple more interviews earlier this week and hoping to get some news from this other company that I think will be a BIG step in my career path by next week. So wish me all the best ya!! 

Really hope I get the other offer cos it will be a BIG learning curve and it will probably feel very much like a ‘corporate ladder’ job.. Think I managed to impress the interviewer enough so I just have to hope that the rest of the people she meets this and next week will not be as good. Abit mean but its my first big step back into the corporate world after 2 years and I hope it will mark the start of a good career move!

*crossing fingers*

Will update the news next week!!!!

I ish Sick

I am sick again.. I hate it… 

This time caused by a toothache. Initially thought it was my wisdom tooth cos I see it popping out at the corner of my gum.. Went to the dentist, 60% prepared to face the needle n surgery… 

Nice, cute and gentle dentist told me he spotted a gum infection. So he isnt sure which is causing the pain.. So he gave me some cleaning, fixed up the decays and some medicine to get rid of the infection and then decide if I have to go under the knife to remove my wisdom tooth / teeth.. 

So here I am.. toothache.. headache…  fever…. the full works…. Googled it and discovered that gum infection does cause fever, giddyness, headaches, etc.. so yes.. I’ve been sick for the last 3 days cos of the damn infection….. And not getting better… 

Help……….

Fiesty Princess Charmaine

A bad way to start the day at office when the first thing you read about is a 4 year old girl who has cancer. 

But I guess her family and friends are doing all they can to help her. For those who are keen to help out, here’s the link:

Feisty Char needs bullets to fight!

Added the link in my sidebar too! 

Really hope she makes it through this! Thanks everyone in advance!
