Mundane life in chicken coup

Back to Hong Kong office this Monday and mostly feeling quite depressed.  The office is just dead silent as usual and no one was there to greet you.  No one acted as if they saw you.  Everyone just quietly typing away, be it useless reports or facebook entries.  And right here and right now, blogspot entries. I got increasingly annoyed at my Chinese crush after I got back.  I remembered all the occasions when he slighted me.  The fact that he either does not have the social decency or the etiquette to even greet me after I've been gone for two weeks just makes him not worth my time.  I can see it more clearly now.  Distance sometimes gives the best clarity.  I still appreciate his character, but somehow I think I am nowhere in his concerns.  I will just give it up now.  When I was leaving work on Monday, I bumped into him and then just turned the other way.

The way we sit so close together remind me of chickens in a tight living quarter.  What fate await us all?

I am getting a few headhunter calls about positions available on the market.  It is time for me to leave the Chinese bank now I think.  I think I will miss it.  But career moves on and my friend has a point that I can't just wait for love.  I have to go for the next thing while I am at it.  A big bank now has an open spot right now.  I hope I get a chance at that spot.

My old affair will attend a friend's wedding in June in Cali with his new girlfriend.  It will be another test of character at least, in the name of finding a potential mate.  I just hope I will be socially graceful, look hot and not cry when I am there.
