 It's final. I've decided to take the job offer from this news publishing company but, I'm not moving to London or New York (go figure what that daily is...hehe). The thing though is, I haven't mustered enough courage to ruin my boss's good mood since yesterday after our bilateral meeting. Heh...

The old man, in his usual fatherly-slash-professorial-slash-mentor mode, congratulated me for organising my first-ever high-level bilateral forum with the Japanese (a one-woman production at that. I had to work on a national holiday. See..these are small sacrifices one  makes for love of country, so thinks my quasi-nationalistic self). He made some minor comments about this and that which he said we could integrate into the next fora sometime in July and November, but of course I'm not gonna be there when they happen. And that is what makes turning in my resignation a wee bit more difficult than I had expected especially because in the last few weeks we've developed a close working relationship. He's been teaching me to share...no, actually, to take ownership of a work that's quite ennobling.

Okay...I better stop here. The thought of leaving is slowly sinking in but since there's work to be done, I gotta hold my separation anxieties at bay. At least for this week. Haha!
