A Rose Fully Bloom

Recently I have changed my job from credit cards sales to credit cards marketing. So now I do not have to run around anymore doing roadshows and burning my weekends. Although I got a huge pay cut but then I have always wanted to try marketing, so for me it is a good opportunity.

In the past when I was doing sales, there were times when we had to go to office to do our admin and I would sometimes look over to the other side (the sales teams were sitting next to the marketing dept). Hmmm.... There were indeed a lot of pretty office ladies there. You can see that they were women not girls. They had this mature beauty. They were like 26 years old and above.

Now I am sitting among them, though some had left already, there will of course be new people replacing them. My neighbour is one of the newbie, as we were sitting in cubicles, she and me are just separated by a cushion wall. The first time I saw her, she had this mature beauty yet display girlish charms. I always cannot resist looking at her, I look at her cos I want to know what is so special about her but I cannot find any answer. Sometimes when I look at her, I am afraid that she will caught me looking at her. So sneaky right.....

There is another one whom I call the Titanium girl. I called her that because she is the poster girl for our Titanium Rewards booklet. She has big round attractive eyes, full lips, girlish laughter and a voice like music. Perfect. I always remember the way she smile, it was bright and her eyes would twinkle. Talk to her a few times but now she has left, too bad.... Will I see you again?

After working in office for a few weeks, I spotted another beauty. I don't know where she appear from but I always see her around, should be from another dept. She always had a smile on her face. She have this girlish appearance but had this mature dress sense. The first time I talk to her was at the mail collecting point, there were female magazines for staffs but they had left, so she asked me whether she could have them. I said ok and she was so happy when I gave it to her, she was giggling like a girl. -_-" Anyway whenever she walk past my desk I would definitely look at her. Beautiful...

We also have this Ikea girl in our office cos she is the model in for our Ikea application, she has chiselled model looks, not my type but still can look right. She once had an anynomous sender of lily white roses. She distributed it around office. Stupid guy, if you want to give flowers, at least put down your name right. Waste money, waste effort.

Of course there is my lovely mentor, she is always cheerful and funky. She doesn't act and look like her age which is pretty cool. She got tattoos, change her hair colour now and then and has 2 kids, amazing woman. She is the one who brought me into marketing. I really appreciate her help. I kind of miss her when she left, although I didn't say it or show it. Hope I will see her soon in the near future, still haven't treat her lunch yet.

Now I am even having lunch often with this colleague who is 2 years older than me. She don't look 26 and has this cute dress sense, she likes to wear either pink or white. Sometimes she put on a hair band or clip her hair. She totally look like a young girl and she is often mistaken to be 19 years old. Sometimes she would look at me and laugh for no reason and when I ask her what is it about, she would just shake her head smiling just like a little girl. Cute....

Of course my office has young and pretty girls but somehow they had no appeal to me. When one of these women smiles at me, their smile brightens my day and it really makes my day. I prefer a fully bloom rose than a rose bud. Because a fully bloom rose is seen in all its glory and is at its most beautiful.

Haiz.... Why wasn't I born earlier......
