After two consecutive flights, one from NingBo to Hong Kong and the other from Hong Kong to Singapore had me very much worn out.
For the uninformed, this Editor had left most people second guessing of his whereabouts. I was sent for a course, compliments of my company to ZhouShan, Zhejiang Province, PRC from 07 Nov till 16 Nov. It was until today that I could sit down in my comfortable hi-back chair and resume my duties as the Editor.
Even my mum called to find me in HKG (I had a night stop-over in HKG prior the flight to Ningbo) on the 7th. She was presumably lost in the twilight zone, as I had mentioned to her about the event.
The course comprised of theory as well as practical sessions. I shall skip the details for fear that the mambo-jumbo would leave more question marks hanging in the air than it should be.
It was also a nice getaway from the hustle of this Little Red Dot city state, but the trip also held back my plans to move out.
And one more piece which this Editor did not mention is that I shall be shifting out to my own premises within these two weeks (scheduled to complete shifting by end of the month)
I rented down a 3 room HDB unit and will be back to my nomadic lifestyle, complete with more household luxuries than I have now in this present premises. *AIR CON! WHERE IS MY AIR-CON?!! (grasps for breath)*
Pictures will follow and my up-and-coming postings might seem rather bland to some as I would hyped-up blabbing about my new premises.
Perhaps some might query over my decision to move out ALONE and to fork out a tidy sum of money for the house. Looking in the near future, every one would have to move out of their parents' premises one day.
In my case, I now have the buoyancy to live on my own, with savings from the years I spent at sea as the Pirate Press editor. And chances of finding such a niche area (5 mins walk from my elder brother's place) is far and few.
On top of everything, the owner is the sister of my good friend which in turn made things much easier to negotiate.
So, does this shift means I would be hanging up my sea-boots soon? asked some of my friends. As the Editor, I have very little to comment at the present moment. For more update, stay tuned to Little Red Dot Press!
