tea with pauline

i had an interesting conversation with pauline this week. i had skipped my lunch to do an interview with one of my student. and decided to go to the canteen for a late lunch. and i asked pauline to join me... have known her since 1986 and have been keeping contact with her. and she now is my hr manager :-)

anyway, as i ate, we starting speaking about my job, my way ahead, my health etc... pauline has all these while been asking about what i intend to do after i leave my organisation in aug this year. and she suggested for me to consider getting my operations done (if indeed i need one) before i leave. but what caught be a little off was when she said: "do you know that you look very tired?" ... "and it's not the tired tired kinda of tired, rather, your eyes seemed so lifeless these days. so unlike you previously"... "perhaps you should start your facial programme again"...

hmmm, is that so? and why? perhaps the reasons are the same as that when i posted about my being in some sort of mid-life crisis recently?

i am still wondering...

Hey bro, sensed you are a bit down recently. Remember you are always the optimistic one, unlike me.
Guess we are passing through another different phase in life. You could be nervously expecting the fruits of your labor. As for me, I had false starts and was thrown back to before the starting line.
Cheer up! This is the period where you will find the love which you had cultivated makes your life meaningful. You and Bee spend more time together and with his encouragement and care, soon he will be able to lift that smile out from the bottom of your heart!
Have an enjoyable dinner and relaxing evening! =)
