Sitting at Starbucks here alone with a cuppa coffee, iphone and lappie... Peaceful.
Although the people here are chatting loudly and laughing uncontrollably.
It's like, peace in my own world. Engrossed in doing my own stuffs, regardless of Kpo-er's stares or comments. I kinda like it. When i have nothing to do, esp when i am alone, i daydream. After daydreaming, i reflect and often enough, i learn quite a handful of stuffs from those reflections.

Now, the ladies from the next table kept smoking and I kept inhaling their second-hand smoke. Almost went to the 7-11 nearby to grab a pack of ciggies on impulse, but i refrained from doing so. I told myself, no smoking unless socializing or drinking. My ultimate motive to quit smoking is one, to save money and two, for health's sake. Although there are Pros in smoking too, but after weighing the Pros and Cons, the Cons weighed so much heavier. Glad that I can turn myself into a social smoker now.

Smoking with those big bosses occasionally esp during networking lunch/dinner and not smoking habitually daily. Seriously, after experiencing the life of a habitual smoker, I didnt regret picking up smoking. I would say that my life wouldn't be the same as now if i wasn't a smoker in the first place. My circle of friends, my points of contact and network had grown a lot bigger and I've came to a conclusion where, Smokers are usually More friendly and more approachable than non-smokers. haha!

Anyway, i have managed to quit lah. I smoke only when i drink or to socialize. It really is a good ice-breaker. Thats how i managed to know a lot of people in the company too. lolx.
