meals with flying friends

I had lunch with Alwyn. He just came back from a Shanghai wedding photoshoot and is planning his wedding at the end of the year.

I had lunch with KW. He's going to Germany for a month this end May

I had dinner with Lynn. She just came back permanently after 3 years in Shanghai

I had dinner with Issey and Leeping. Issey just came back permanently after 1.5 years in Japan and Leeping is going to Vancouver for 3 years in July.

I am going to 3 cities in the next 2 weeks, flying in 4 days time. Fly, fly, fly!!

need a shrink or movie

5 days a week working alone without having a proper face-to-face leisure conversations can take away your ability to have spontaneous and good response to another person.

Most of the time I'm just talking serious stuff to a laptop or business stuff with my boss or moving fingers on my phone glass, I'm actually awkward or shy making jokes or that my jokes are not funny or I'm just being too crude. ARGHHHHHHH. 

I need to attend some conversations courses or see a therapist or a shrink.
or a movie.

There are so many movies coming up in May I am so excited I am going visit the cinema so frequently.

Spiderman,
X-men,
Godzilla,
Edge of tomorrow,
Transformers in June,
Guardians of the Galaxy in July!!!!!!!

crossroad

I'm at a cross road right now.

Money vs Time
Bank vs Oil & gas
Work vs Study
MBA vs MFE

I hate it when we have to make life choices that we don't have control over. Sometimes it's just luck, sometimes it's your responsibilities, sometimes there's really not much of a choice.

Reading online forums just makes things more complex. Some haven't found a job for many months, some got really well paying jobs, some say studying is good for a career switch etc etc. It's never-ending. High risk high returns vs low risk low returns.

On a side note, I just borrowed 8 completely new comics, and Scorch Trails and Death Cure! Woohoo!

why work here

Why I am still here:

I am earning an okay amount

Cheap and good canteen food

I have a lot of time for myself after work

Free shuttle bus

Why I am thinking I should not be here:

Pay will not progress much in the future

No office social life

I keep asking myself what I am doing here

Not much work benefits

People are very complacent because they are waiting to retire
China side is not professional at all

Don't see myself in this company or industry

Captain America 2

A lot of reviews are saying that this is the best marvel film yet or one of the best action movie this year and I totally agree! It has less CGI spectacle than Avengers but more down to earth action sequence and close-to-reality storyline. I just love the bits of the captain throwing his shield around, so damn classic. I also liked the secret soldier uniform he wore. So nice.

At first when I saw the trailer I was a little sceptical of the movie because 1. It is a sequel and 2. What can Captain America do except to throw his shield around? The movie turned out to be very enjoyable with many sub plots and lined a lot of story for future expansion of the marvel universe. I.e. Cross-bones, Arnim Zola, Doctor Strange, Sharon Carter etc.

The movie also had one of the actor from Dark Knight so when he appeared it reminded me of the villian he played in Batman so I though he was a bad guy until I realised I'm watching a Marvel movie.

Chris Evan is the perfect guy to play Captain America. And I can't wait for Guardians of the Galaxy! Oh btw there are 2 ending credits. The mid credit scene is the beginning for Age of Ultron.
AHHHHHHHHH!!! JUST SHOW IT NOWWW

I am becoming lazy

I feel so guilty lying on the bed yesterday after coming home and then closing my eyes and waking up for dinner instead of working out as I have planned.

After coming back from Japan I feel so lazy to work out. I was working out intensively before that because I have to be naked in front of ppl in the onsen so that was my motivation. My next onsen trip would be like end of year? or kinda one year later... so... what's the rush?

Anyway I said that I need to return to my regular life last week so yeah. I need to work out for the future.
