The secret sisterhood of heart breakers

Jom Bali – Trix was in town the other day, so Damian & myself manage to grab lunch with Trix. It was such a rare opportunity as it was getting harder & harder to meet up with Trix. Trix have decided to resign from the French, leave KL and explore a career opportunity in Singapore. Trix have been there for almost 2 years now. Trix got an awesome job in a cleaning company that specializes in the healthcare industry. As usual, we swaped stories about the current going-ons in our life. Even though, Trix is a Johorean and the families are residing in Kahang but life as an expatriate can be hard at times. Being in a foreign land. Away from family and old friends. Some days can be pretty rough. Singapore is a totally new ball game compare to KL. The Kiasu & competitive culture is very prevalent over there. Because Singapore is a very small country, employees tend to stick with one company for a very long time, some may even work there for life, thus they eye any newcomers very suspiciously. But I know that Trix is made of a strong character and Trix will certainly triumph and prevail in any given circumstances. Trix is a survivor.

Overall, it was a very nice session. Being with Trix & Damian are always nice. Hugs, kisses and good conversations always leave me feeling like life is wonderful :) That’s why I always appreciate every single friend that I’ve made along the way. Especially my girlfriends. I love the chats, the chilling out and laughing and especially all of the fun things that we’ve done together. But most importantly, I love the support we give each other. It is begin to be very hard to see The Others (my fellow colleagues from the M13 days) more often as time goes by…but luckily there is always Trix who always be the glue that will forever keep us connected. Trix is always there. There's something very comforting in knowing that :)
