Last Friday (December 24, 2010, to be exact) I went back to my previous office. It felt like a homecoming, actually. I was so excited. We caught up lots of things, had our coffee at our favorite coffee house, grab our afternoon snacks and took lots of pictures.
Everybody asked pretty much the same questions like "how are you?", "do you like working in the new place?", "what kind of coworkers do you work with?" and.. "are you happier now?". But no one beats Cak Wier's question.
"Annisa! Now you're working in the agency. And why, oh why, are you still wearing that darn sneakers? I wasn't expecting high heels, really. At least, not that ones."
I laughed, so did everyone.
I also got the weird 'stares' from some people that I said 'hi'. Their faces ware like, "what? why do you said 'hi' to me as if we haven't met for a long time."and then in split second they realized that I am no longer their coworker. HA!
One thing I regret from the 'homecoming day' is... the absence of uncle. Yes, he took his leave whereas I really had to ask his advices for surviving the industry.
Frankly saying, I was very happy that day. But when I realized that I wasn't part of the hip 'class' anymore and that the place that I'm working at right now is kinda lame, brought me almost in tears. But, well... What else can I do except to live my work life as good as possible and to treasure our friendship.
And I'm glad we took lots of pictures! Had I mention it? Nyahahahahaha..
Those pictures are the sweetest token. Whaddayatink? :D
