Finally, I am here, I had returned to workforce after exploring New Zealand for few months. It’s good to see $$$$(salary) bank into my account every month, have not seen that for so long.
Recently I was given the opportunity to attend a training on Emotional Intelligence(EQ) for excellent customer relationship management conducted by Christopher Raj from Institute of Training and Development(ITD) Group. I had my personality tested based on the Leonard Personal Inventory and I was categorized as “versatile”. I was a little surprised with the result, previously I was quite rigid and defensive perhaps the solo backpacking to New Zealand had changed me. I worked hard to make myself adapt to any kind of difficulties and hardships.
Talking about NZ, my friend, Ray who will be leaving for NZ under the Holiday Working Scheme on 11 November. He will complete my incomplete mission to go for Tongariro Crossing when I was in New Zealand. :) I felt happy when friends called me for advice because they want to do the same thing that I had done. At least, there are still people out there who see through my eyes. I remembered that the criticisms I got when I told them I wanted to backpack to NZ for couple of months and quit my job. “Don’t you think it is waste of time and money, people are busy accumulating money and building their financial empire, you choose to backpack solo for so long?”
I am going to complete my training in my new company soon. So far, I am pretty satisfied and happy with my new job. I am very excited to see what's the future that I am going to have with this company.

It's good to see you returning into the workforce. As for me, venturing out to NZ solo indeed makes you a more "exposed" person and whetever you do, it's fulfilling!
By the way, I am following your blog! :P
