Cherry hugs and chocolate kisses

Got an email from my boss yesterday and today. Well one is my previous boss - I just bought her a box of chocolates to thank her for her generous hong pow that she gave me when I left for Brussels, the second is the boss I had when I left the firm. They're both very cool and great role models for me... in terms of professionalism and also learning how to live life to the fullest. I was so lucky to have two good bosses during my time at the firm.

And replying to another email from a friend I met in Singapore gave me some time to reflect on my times in Singapore and the experiences I'm having here in Brussels. In Singapore I had a hard time dealing with culture shock and the fact that I had to start everything from scratch, meeting new friends and getting to know how to work in a company.

But now that I'm here in Brussels and I have friends here, I have Antoine here and I have managed to find myself a new and challenging part-time job, I'm discussing business ideas with a long-time friend of mine... I feel whole again. I feel like I really need to keep in touch with the people that I love and not let my old relationships collect dust, like they did a little while I was in Singapore.

So I've renewed my promise to ensure everyone dear to me, who's given me guidance knows what's going on in my life!
