I snapped this shot of my desk when I got in the morning (yes, this is first thing in the morning). Occasionally, I tidy up my desk before I leave but sometimes, you just gotta drop it like it’s hot. Looking at this picture, I realise I have an obsession with Post-It notes. And pink stationery. (And you can also see how the papers + reference books eventually flood over the keyboard, therefore resulting in leaning and bad posture)
I was at Mimolette last Friday for some Star Signs party and they had a Tarot card reader on hand so of course I rushed over and got a reading. After shuffling and selecting the cards, his opening line was, “Have you recently broken up with someone?” I immediately cursed at him! So, he continued (slightly unfazed) and said that I am very disappointed in relationships and am avoiding them for now but building up a lot of negative energy. I am, however, channelling some of this negative energy into work, which is developing well. Sheesh, this guy freaked me out. So, his advice was to not jump into a relationship but instead work on this negative energy thing and be more open. We’ll see.
My father retires tomorrow. I am actually very glad about that before he has been travelling to and from Jurong every day for about… 30 years now? Maybe more? My dad is a really active person – who I think will fill his time well with the activities he jam-packs into the weekends. I am also looking at putting him on some outstanding errands I have. Put the fella to good use.
em said……i wish i could leave my desk like that
and leave for the day. We can’t, we must adopt a clean desk approach or else we could get into trouble with audit/compliance.annoying sometimes but use to it after all these years.
I am happy for Daddy too. I think it is longer than 30 yrs……….so he definitely needs a break.
Wow, a must clean for the desk regime? I personally find it more serene to step into work to a clean desk but sometimes, I just have to drop everything. Taking Dad out to dinner tonight.
