To dip or not to dip...

Had a farewell dinner gathering with a fren along with Vincent, Chiang Mei, Wei Ye and Wei Liang at Wong Kok (Queensbay Mall) just now. He'll be taking up a new job in Singapore next week.

Lately (or in the past 12 months or so), many of my frens have left the country to seek presumably greener pasture overseas or to 'dip in salt water' as they say.

While many of them have ended up in Singapore, a few of them have moved to places like New Zealand, Australia, China and US. Almost echo the same reasons... to gain exposure and experience, to earn more $$$ etc.

Will they get what they aim for? Only time will tell. But i am sure they will and sincerely hope that they do as well.

Most recently a close fren (and fellow banana like myself) has taken up a job in China, somewhere close to Beijing. It will be interesting to see how well he survives there. He'll also be my guinea pig on how long it takes (if it ever does happen) to convert a banana (yellow outside, white inside) to a ripe mango (yellow outside, yellow inside). Ha ha ha...

Let's see how well it turns out for him... If it turns out to be for the better, i'd definitely be tempted to consider the question of 'to dip or not to dip'...
