flying to hk

all of a sudden my mum n i decided to tag along with my cousin to hong kong. freee accommodation at her hotel. decided on tues and booked tix on wed, before i even applied for leave. ok i admit the decision was kinda rash.. it was not so much an urge to go to hong kong, but rather, an intense need to just get a break, any break.

and what a disaster that caused.

tried to apply for 3 days leave for this trip. the 3 days being first week of sch hols, n technically speaking, we can only apply leave during sch hols so they can't reject our leave with no good reason.

but tada, my leave got rejected. like what the hell.

had to go into her office and do lotsa explaining before she reluctantly agreed.. but not before she gave me a lecture of cos....

sheesh. it's so hard to even take a 3 days leave. they work us like blardy slaves. i haven't even taken ONE day off this yr, and i'm just asking for a mere 3 days, during sch hols.

by now i'm honestly feeling jaded with the management.

and i'm honestly feeling all out of mood to go on hol anymore. for one, my schedule for those 3 days is starting to pile up, so now i've to push appointments off. then i have to clear lotsa work, cover my backside first before i can go to hk.. got a few deadlines..and the day right after i'm back, gotta go back to work to face the music n definitely.. hundreds of emails n junks to clear.

how to go with a peace of mind... sighhh

but like my colleagues said, work here will always come fast n furious and there wont ever be a good time to take leave.. so, just do it. really, from jan - dec we dun seem to have any lull periods... sianz. work allll the wayyy..

ok, i shall try my best to look forward to it amidst all adversity. arghhhh

and i shall try to recover from my bad throat n cough before i leave.. :(

anyone who can recommend anything good in hk please say...:)

i'm honestly looking forward mainly to po lo bao, mango desserts, hk noodles, dim sum, macau almond cookies n pork floss rolls and roast goose! no shopping this time... err i'll try. low budget trip!

so, i'll be gone from 24 - 28 may!
