there's a balance to all things

For the past 4 days of the week, it has been a pretty good week. After a 'push' to make me pluck up the courage to face a problem which i created out of nothing, i felt happy & relieved. Like some burden is removed off my shoulders. Very happy.

But today, suddenly work is so busy in the morning. So many people just chose to come in the morning to make their pass, and the queue is so long that it is only cleared by 12.30pm & i only managed to find breathing space to buy lunch by then. It has taken longer than usual by 1 hour or so. But the thought of meeting unit friends for basketball & dinner just brighten up my day. It was a good bonding session. Had good laugh while playing. Although I'm bad at ball games, i'm starting to like playing basketball le.

It just has been 2 weeks after I left the unit, but so much has happened after I left. A friend's problem with a particular Mdm just keep getting worse & its now worsen until the head of department gets to know about it. She even interviewed all regulars, and that friend & the 2 friends of the same batch. Can't she just stop picking on him & make it a more relaxed environment to work at. But in the end, she's the one who suffered after she blown up the matter 'coz the 3 of them are going to ORD in 2 months' time & she's still gonna stay and continue to work. So who's at the losing end?

And apart from this forever ongoing problem, i just heard a saddening news about a particular Mdm. Mdm, you must jia you k!! I hope the seriousness of your situation is not as bad as what I've heard. You're such a nice Mdm. So friendly, so cheerful, so easy-going. You just make the whole working environment so relaxed. Although, my interaction with you is not alot because of different job scope, i won't forget your best wishes when i ORD. I was dumbfolded when i heard of this piece of news. Life is fragile & unpredictable.

I decided to walked back after dinner as i wanna save some $$ and i thought the distance from Boon Keng/Bendemeer to my house is not too long, a 15 mins walk should be good enough. But, the stroll back home took me 30 minutes!As i stroll, my mind was just filled with the seriousness of the Mdm's situation, when cm told me about it with that super serious expression, i never sensed its something so drastic. But its not like i can do anything to the situation. Oh well...

A message i received from a friend says i failed as a person. Maybe i do? I dunno. Someone tell me please. Maybe i'm reading too much into messages...Maybe its just a random comment...

When there's nice things happening in a week, there's not so nice things happening as well, life's so fair! =)
