Minggu terakhir bekerja

My post today will be in bahasa :) sekali sekala.
Dalam masa seminggu...sya akan tinggalkan kerja saya. Tiba-tiba rasa sedih pula. Rasa kosong pun ada. Tapi setiap permulaan pasti  akan ada tamatnya.
Saya ingat lagi ketika baru mula bekerja pada Mei 2005..saya terpaksa pergi ke Kl untuk "training" selama sebulan. Pada masa itu..saya bersama 3 orang staff lagi. Yang mana pada tahun 2008, salah seorang staff berhenti, kemudian pada tahun 2010 diikuti oleh seorang lagi staff lama. Dan pada tahun 2011..manager saya pula berhenti. Silih berganti staff yang bekerja di sini..cuma saya sahaja staff lama yang masi bertahan. Bukannya saya tidak mahu mencari kerja lain..pernah sampai dipanggil interview tapi mungkin betul orang kata yang jodoh saya dengan company ini agak panjang.
Sangat panjang daripada saya masi bujang sehingga beranak 1. Kadang-kadang malu juga bila customer bertanya.."masih kerja disini?" Tapi saya dengan selamba menjawab "iya..masi..sampai tutup saya kerja sini." Rasanya..masin juga mulut ni. Mesti berhati2 ni mulai sekarang.
Banyak saya belajar sepanjang bekerja selama 9 tahun disini. Rasanya banyak nilai2 hidup dan pengalaman saya perolehi.
Berbagai-bagai ragam manusia yang saya jumpa disini. Kesabaran saya pun selalu tercabar..tapi syukur kerana merekalah saya lebih tenang berdepan dengan semua cabaran. Saya juga rasa sangat bersyukur kerana dalam masa bekerja itu juga saya berjumpa dengan beberapa insan yang banyak mengajar saya untuk lebih berdikari.
Apapun...tiada yang saya kesali sepanjang bersama dengan company ini. Saya harapkan semoga tiada lagi cawangan yang ditutup selepas ini.
Dibawah ini...gambar2 kenangan sepanjang 9 tahun bekerja disini.

My Transition From Working Mom to Stay at Home Mom

Last month I received the news about the closure of my company. I've been working there for almost a decade. I was very sad and hard to accept at first. It took me almost 3 weeks to accept the facts and i still feel the same up til now..at least not as bad as before. It's not 1-2 years..but it's 9 years! I cried (Insert crying sound here)..yes..i did..it was devastating. But life must go on. Thank God that my husband was very supportive. He never put any pressure on me. Thank goodness for that. I'm so blessed to have him in my life (Must treat him even better from now on hehehe)

So..after a month of job hunting and failed miserably (Insert deep sigh here). As we all know it is not easy to find a job that suits our qualification and most importantly meet my expected salary. I guess all the bosses quickly throw aside my resume after looking at my expected salary :) I don't blame them. If i'm the boss..i too will look at applicants with the minimum expected pay.

Talking about my transition..it's not really a "transition" I'm already a mother and wife. But this time it's FULL TIME STAY AT HOME MOM! (SAHM) Yay!! I used to envy those moms who get to stay home and spend more quality time with their loved ones. Okay....i will get 1 of my childhood dreams come true real soon! Real soon..like next month! hehehe..I even prepare a timetable for my lil guy. Hoping we can stick to it and make it a routine.

Well..my decision to become a SAHM is a well thought and discussed choice. It is actually my husband's idea for to just settled at home and look after our little one. I always believe the saying "blessing in disguise". All endings are also beginnings. This is the beginning of new phase in my life. Amen!

Honestly..i'm nervous and excited at the same time to start my new chapter. I've been preparing lots of learning material for Darrell for the past few weeks. He's my main priority now. My Christmas and miracle baby! (counting and hoping for more gifts from God hehe..)

That's it for now. I will write more often from now on (Janji saja..tapi malas hehe).. till then!! bye!
