For all man are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall -1Peter 1:24

when will we find lasting peace? -Part 1

Looks like things are pretty shaken up for our merry little gang. Or shall I say all my different merry little gangs.
In a nutshell:

1 老爷 and Momo
老爷caught up in moving to his new place, pretty much gone MIA for the pass two weeks.
Heard that 夫人 fell sick recently, not much information, as I don't have time to drop by, as a matter of fact, there's no time to catch up with any of the HODs as well.
Momo is quite badly wrecked by the extra workload after getting her new accounts, falling sick and stuff like that. Did what I could to assist, but I'm caught up with training my successor, which has greater priority in the long term. (After I leave the team, a well trained replacement can render far more value than the limited support I could offer at this point)

2 Fags
With the exception of the 做Boh civil servants (as usual), everyone's too busy with their respective careers and family planning to meet up.
Had a couple of drinks with Chunz, and Wei Pin joins us once in a while too. Also managed to catch William once. We will have no Christmas party time year.

3 Church mates
No updates as we don't really have time for sharing anymore.

The real "haves" -William Hoffer

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Eric_Hoffer
The real "haves" are they who can acquire freedom, self-confidence, and even riches without depriving others of them. They acquire all of these by developing and applying their potentialities. On the other hand, the real "have nots" are they who cannot have aught except by depriving others of it. They can feel free only by diminishing the freedom of others, self-confident by spreading fear and dependence among others, and rich by making others poor.

The meek see potential threats everywhere. The bold see potential profits

Will be going to join Operations in Dec. By now its an open secret, though only the inner circle knows the specifics*. This is happening 3 mths after my official promotion, and not unexpected. I guess management is indeed keeping their word to groom me.

*As a sidenote, many are speculating about my new role. Traditionally, collective bets will take place. Such bonding among colleagues are just so heartwarming.

Jinnai Tomonori's - Funny Japanese Zombie Game

Jinnai Tomonori's - Funny Japanese Zombie Game

Funny Japanese Zombie Game (English subtitles)
This is one of the funniest video clip I've seen recently. It's hosted on Crunchyroll so you'll need to log in to a free account first.

It's a spoof of "house of the dead" style shooter games, featuring some strangly well behaved zombies. I wouldn't want to spoil it here, so see it for yourself.
