Chair.

Today I went back to work and the first thing that greeted me was that my chair was changed without my knowledge (I won’t even say approval). One of my colleagues took the liberty and exchanged his chair with mine while I was away on holiday – talk about being courteous. It doesn’t help when this colleague was never one of my favourite colleague anyway. I could have given him a piece of my mind, but in order to preserve the harmonious relations among members of my office I decided to just ask him to buzz off while he was about to offer his explanation. Not the best way to celebrate my return to office, and to say I’m not impressed with this colleague would be a blatant understatement. I mean, the least he could do was just drop me an email and let me know that he’s exchanged the chairs, and I don’t need to endure such a traumatic return.

And today has been horribly hot! I was perspiring all over whenever I’m not indoors, and I really hate that feeling. Somehow it seems that it’s warmer here in Hong Kong than in Singapore. Thank God it’s the school holidays now and I can still pretty much wear casually to school. I can’t imagine if I’m one of those who have to put on a suit everyday to work.

Most of my colleagues will be going off to their holidays soon, so I’ll be having the office to myself – with the exception of that chair-exchanging colleague. Thank God I have no common topic with him so I won’t even think about starting a conversation with him.

Will be registering at City University this Thursday evening. Hopefully the picture they are going to take for me will turn out to be a nice one for the student pass.
