As much as I had hoped to fill this blog aplenty this month, time has drifted by and quite rapidly too. The last time I wrote on these pages, it was at the news of the a new job on the horizon. Since then, yours trully has had to travel across international borders 2 times to sign the job contract and to commence the processing of the paper work.
As I sit here today, my days on my present job are indeed numbered. So I am thinking I should write my memoirs, the experience of the last 15 months and my reflections on them from a "looking-back" position. The nature of my job is essentailly based on universal principles but the cultural perspective of living where I am presently is much varied from my own distant "roots". I am not promising myself but I'd see what I can do about blogging my memoirs; even if I have to punch the keyboard from the "other side".
It's been an eventful month and I am looking forward to better days ahead.

I wrote as a status update on my Facebook page a day after President Obama signed his much-praised healthcare reform bill: "I don't have a job, hence I am hungry. I have healthcare insurance though. I am an American! (Whatever happened to Maslow's hierachy of needs?)".
This was me being cynical for the sake of it. What Obama has done and the way in which he achieved it is a true landmark. We should keep the greater goal of our promises, even if there are pressing concerns of the moment; more so when there are structures on ground to eventually address those concerns.
All the best in your new job! Where are you headed!
