The return

I still blog!! Though hardly see my footsteps :p
Definitely no doubt on my role as a lazy and procrastinate gardener, which i have abandoned this piece of land for nearly four months.
Life changed in these period, not to say a dramatic change, but enough to determine my career path.
Briefly describe what i have gone through these several months.
Firstly, my mom fell sick on January this year, due to severe lung infection. We suspect heavy smoke environment during my grandfather's funeral is the main cause.
She was staying at General Hospital for nearly two weeks. Indeed is a haunted experience.

Following on, i got an job offer from Business Times, the business news section of New Straits Times simultaneously.
Never wonder i have the chance to join this big corp, and i acknowledge the fact that, the press itself has turned out to be a propaganda tool of BN. So stop evaluating me as if i would stand by BN side once i join the company.
I shall report my duty on 6th of May, hence pleasant holiday left only one and half week.
For the past one and half year, i was in Mandarin-versed and Chinese writing environment.
It means joining BT would possess a great challenge to me.
Not only it is not my mother-tongue, frankly to said, i can't cope English grammars and pronunciation. More hard work need to be put.
Besides, it seems like I am destined to work in English language environment after a short three-month internship with BERNAMA during college period.
Guess it isn't something to worry, with the background of a business journalist in English press, i am confident this would broaden my future career direction, as compared to Busy Weekly and Oriental Daily.
So Kris, be prepared and never give up!!

And i'm glad to meet with nice and amiable colleagues in Busy Weekly. Weng Yan, Yoke Man, Wai Yee, Jia Teng, Hun Yi, Jeanie, Dee Dee and Vung Ket are definitely would be missed.

Lastly, to sharpen my writing, guess i would visit here more frequently than before.
