Carte Blanche~*: Everything happens for a reason

Ling

Last two weeks had been chaotic. Enormous count of paper work, meetings, travelling and over time. Nonetheless, when the clock struck 3:30pm, James tapped on my shoulder and said, "Hey Ellen, do you want a beer?" Struggling to find a piece of drawing underneath a pile of mess on my table with my headphones on playing Amy Winehouse's song, I turned to James and took the beer from his hand. Thanks! I dropped my pen, shut off my screens and gathered around the rest for some chinwagging and irrelevant chat. I then realised that it's already Friday afternoon, my supposingly last day in the office. Boss called earlier and insisted that I took Monday off before my long journey to Jakarta. As much as I like to, I still have tons of shit lying around my table which I left behind after the Friday beer.

Enough of work! I've started reading again. Strange how one's life can change so quickly. I've moved out from my previous flat. My friend and his mum had took over the house. I've left my precious cat behind with him. I'm going away for a month and couldn't afford sending Angel to the cats' hotel. Hope she'll forgive me! Moved into this tiny lil room with no TV reception. Broadband connection is the speed of the obsolete dial-up connection. Well, at least the book is keeping me company for now.

Went out with my favourite person for breakie yesterday. Saw the first blossom tree. The coldest day is now behind us. Staring at the pink yet leafless tree, it crossed my mind that I've been here, in this marvellous lil town for close to two years now. In another few months time, I'll be packing up my belongings yet again.

I guess I won't be blogging for another month. I'm leaving this cold as country tomorrow and will return in 4 weeks time. I'll be travelling to Jakarta and back to Kuching, and then back to Jakarta again before returning to NZ. In the mean time, here are some photos I took in the past two/three weeks. =) Cheerios guys.
