My worth...

Not sure what to say.  All I can feel in my heart is hurt, disappointment with a touch of anger and a lot of frustration.  Perhaps I should not write on here what happened today, but I need to let it out some way or another...

Today, I found out my worth, as it seems, it is not a lot.
Yes, I had been away sick for many days, which is one of the reasons I can comprehend.  But for me, given those issues, I feel I have done my best and given it my all in every possible way.  In many ways, I feel I had exchange my health for something which at the end was worthless.  After today's event, it seems to be not worthwhile and somehow, made a fool of me and my hard work which I put in.

Yes, numbers are important, but whatever happened to the acknowledgement of the things that happened to me and hours which I worked tirelessly?  I guess because that cannot be measured, then I am at a lost.

So, the question is, did I put in all my time, health and effort for nothing?  It seems that way...



Maybe I am playing this game wrongly, maybe I had been mis-informed, maybe I mis-understood something, or simply, I may have been cheated of my health and hard work which I know I have put in to get this far.

Whatever the reason, this set back is one which I cannot get over just yet...but I have to...get over it, because I worked too damn long and hard to get where I am today.

Perhaps I need to find a new direction, or new people to work with, change of environment, I don't know.  So many questions and thoughts in my head right now...so hard to focus on what is important anymore.

Such a heavy blow to the heart, mind and dignity...this will be more difficult to recover than the back operation I just had...

But, I have worked too damn hard to make it this far...work too hard to give it all up...there's got to be a better way...

For now, all my remaining happiness has in fact, been drained away...I wonder when it can be full again?

We shall see...

Rainy Weekend

What a way to end the weekend, being soaked top-to-bottom in heavy rain! It came very suddenly and we just wanted to get home, so we took the chance and ran all the way home in the rain. It was refreshing actually, I have had a lot on my mind recently and the being soaked certainly gave the brain a bit of a reboot. But then I realised Taiwan rain is quite acidic, not a good thing. Anyhow, I have updated my homepage with something useful for the lunch hours. Its a random lunch selector, which basically displays a picture of a local eatery which we would go to for lunch. It has been pain in the rear-end when deciding where to go for lunch. There are so many choices in the area where I work, so having something like this may ease the troublesome decision which we all make on a daily basis. I've also made use of the ned 8MB ADSL line by doing a bit of downloading and listening to online radio. Certainly makes a difference and if you guys can get it, then get it! I just read th...

Superman Snappy

Snap the man of steel and score points! My first attempt, I got 82. This will just have to do until I get a new camera.

Homeward Bound (For 2 Weeks)

We're setting off later this evening to UK for a couple of weeks. Can't wait to see Manchester and Ashton-under-Lyne again, not to mention to catch with friends and family and of course do a bit of driving! I haven't been driving for more than a year now since I have been in Taiwan, feels like my legs have gone! We're taking a lot pineapple cakes, which Taiwan is famous for, back to friends and family in UK, and some other gifts too. On the way back, we'll bring back all sorts of stuff to Taiwan, so another post on that when I get back. Not sure whether I'll be able to get online as often, but will try my best to keep my blog updated as much as possible while I am over in UK. My grand parents also arrived in UK from Hong Kong to attend my brother Jimmy's wedding. So time would probably be spent travelling around and take to places to see and have fun. Don't worry, as always, I'll be taking pictures! It will be Amelie's first time visit to UK...
