Hello! It's been two days since i've been back from the land of sleaze.

Many thanks to all who sent me bday greetings or left me well wishes on their blogs OR sent me stuffs fr overseas.. really appreciate that guys!

Was pretty much alone on the day of my bday, having to travel back fr Shenzhen by myself. But everything proceeded smoothly, and i am very glad to be back in an environment where sleaze is NOT the norm. i rmb sending an sms back at one point, saying how i almost couldnt stand socializing with people who were cheating on their spouses and seemingly shared no sense of guilt. if there's one thing i cannot tolerate the most, it is infidelity. (thank gdness, that didnt show through, which leaves me to logically conclude that i, too, am capable of having a poker face!)

These people have shown me the dark side of the finance industry (not just the sleaze).. and it is disconcerting how after looking at the dark, it is so difficult to see the industry from the bright side again. but i must make it clear that at the end of the day however, i do respect these people a lot as professionals.

Travelling alone isnt the most enjoyable thing to do, and it definitely wasnt easy being the only female in the group. But looking back, it truly was an invaluable experience that money simply cannot buy.

During my last night in Shenzhen, i had an executive suite at shangri-la all to myself. There was a huge living room connected to the bedroom, but somehow all that empty space made me felt very uneasy. Still, how many times can one live in such luxury? my wordings are incoherent, as are my thoughts. there are still tons of things left to be pondered about..
