ANOTHER NEW BEGINNING

1st May 2008 marks another new beginning. I will be officially transferred to HQ as admin executive. Surprised right? It happened so fast after barely a month in my current company. It’s a long story. My company has 2 sub-subsidiaries. Due to restructuring, they are going to merge as one. As they do not need so many admin due to the merger, they are going to transfer me, a newbie, to either HQ or another company. I do not know it will be a blessing in disguise. From the feedback from my not-so-long colleagues, they say HQ is better compared to the other. Fortunately, basically I do not need to move office as HQ is going to move to my floor.

During my brief one month in my current company, I did not get to be exposed much and ended up quite “free” most of the time. It can be quite stressful as you are still new yet you did not get to know more about the operation of the company. But quite demoralizing from my brief interview with the HQ manager that she mentioned she afraid the job I am going to may not be fully utilize me.

Well right now I can only adopt “wait and see” attitude.

Max now is going to be nine months old. Right now he is learning how to crawl but he is a lazy boy. He will start to fuss and cry after some time on the floor without much progress. He is also a super active boy. If there is any moment he can sit and stay still for more than 15 minutes is a blessing. Now I worry how I am going to teach and discipline him when he is much older. He is very much like his father when he is younger, bad temper and stubborn. Kids really grow up fast. In another 3 months he is going to be one year old. Gosh…. Right now a lot of people had asked me when number 2 is coming. With such an active boy I do not dare to think about it in near future. Just how many children do I really want? Basically having 2 kids, a boy and a gal is ideal. But I feel how many kids you wan has to depend on the characteristics of your kid and financial status. With the prices of kindergarten’s fees and everything from food to clothes are rising, and if you have difficulties in raising your current kid(s), do you think it is wise to try for another kid? At least that is my thinking now, even though I also feel at least two is good as they have each other for accompany when my husband and me grow old and leave this world one day…
