Hi 親愛的朋友們,
希望你還沒忘了我... 對不起啦，我偷懶賴皮了兩年多才又浮出水面，但你知道我總是念著你的，對吧？
兩年多發生了很多事，最快速簡潔交代的方法是：我重新加入了前東家、我遇上了一個好男孩。
工作先來。我再次加入脫胎換骨的 i 社 ，公司的服務與以往完全不一樣，我的角色也完全不同。我們是全球前幾大的 {G服務} 解決方案提供者，而我身為商務發展經理的重要任務就是幫助公司在亞太區跨國開疆闢土。一年內我締造了生涯紀錄共飛了 11 趟，到美西、香港、澳門、泰國、新加坡、日本各地出差，在最短時間內逼自己學習相關的B2B商務談判技巧、與最多潛在合作夥伴洽談、收集所有陌生市場的情資協助公司評估事業發展可能性。我很幸運能跟一整組專業、互相尊重、心胸開闊的同事們一起合作。我知道我不完美，但跟這樣的團隊一起前行，我們大有可為。
至於感情生活呢，我卡到_一次(笑)，但幸好現在有 Mr. Lin 好好的疼著我。
我們在一個朋友舉辦的旅遊咖聚會上認識，之後有了很多意料外的發展。我們很有可能在活動後錯過彼此，如果在另一個場合用別的方式遇見，我們很可能會第一時間把彼此踢出考慮名單，但緣分就這麼神奇，讓現在的我們成為彼此生活中最大的應援者。他聰明、幽默、愛運動、體貼、隨和，而且很珍惜我。他曾在澳洲打工度假兩年、又是個熱愛日本動漫文化的傢伙，所以我們共通的語言很多，也可以一起規劃無數趟日本之旅。不過根據 Mr. Lin 指示，我明年的重要任務之一是把他帶到亞洲以外的世界去探險。以下開放提案 ;)
我不完美，他也知道。但我們一起向前試看看，或許也是大有可為。
祝福你與所愛的親人朋友們，擁有一個溫暖平安的聖誕佳節，與大有可為的2020！

W E-news- Imperfect 2019
Hi my beloved friends,
I hope you still remember me... I know I know, I've been too lazy on sharing my latest progress. You do know I miss you a lot, right?
For the past two years, A LOT happened. To make it super simple- I rejoined my previous company, and I met a nice guy.
Work-wise, I joined company i again however to run a brand new business with a brand new role. We are now one of the biggest solution providers of {G service} in the world, and I'm helping them to run a multi-national business as a business development manager in APAC. I got my record-high overseas trip by flying 11 times within 2019 to visit the US, HK, SG, Thailand, Japan, and Macau. Getting to learn many hard-core B2B business skills, trying my best to meet with new partners & new markets within the shortest time possible, pushing myself to collect and to digest as much information as possible within impossible timeline, I grew with phenomenal pace. Delightedly, I felt thankful for being in the team that's respectful and open-minded. I'm imperfect, but I know together with this team, we got a chance.
Relationship-wise, I tripped once, but I'm in good hands now with Mr. Lin.
We met at an event with travel fans, and many things happened in the unexpected ways. There's good chance that we'll just passed by each other after the event; It's Very possible for us to cross off each other if we met in another way at another occasion. Luckily, now, we're the biggest cheerleader for each other. He's smart, humorous, sporty, thoughtful, easy-going, and he cherished me. He enjoyed working holiday in Australia for 2 years before, and he's at the same time a big fan of Japanese animation/cartoons/comics and culture. We together can possibly plan numerous trips to visit Japan if we want, but my key mission- assigned by Mr. Lin - is to bring him to go somewhere Outside of Asia for his first visit ever next year. Any proposal? ;)
I'm imperfect, and he knows it. We together, however, got a chance.
May you and the ones you love enjoy a warm, nice Christmas holiday.
May you all enjoy a Very Happy New Year 2020.

W E-news [2016 with no regrets]
Hi my dear, how's everything?
With only a blink, surprisingly we've waived goodbye to 2016. I'd love to share with you something about my year, and hope you find it as interesting as I do too.
Be a professional to devote fully to the crazily rapid changing world and tasks- No regrets.
As always, the internet industry evolves in the pace that no one can actually catch up with easily. I've experienced some re-organization, duty adjustments, and strategic shifts at work. The latest duty covered "product marketing" to introduce newly launched features/functions to users, and "APAC cross-country marketing" to synchronize cross-functional marketing ideas and then to roll out to all markets with necessary localization. Also as you can imagine, I help to strengthen the partnership with our cross-market counterparts.
You won't believe me if I say I always enjoy the work everyday, but I'm growing to believe deeper: "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Each challenge is there to push me think and solve them in a smarter way, and to communicate in an elegant way to make all partners work together happily.
And hey, I'm about to host our second concert with 11,000 audiences ;) The planning and execution are exhausting, but it IS something extremely rewarding!
Reconnect with my precious good-old-days- No regrets.
June 2016, I took Mom with me to fly to Germany for friends' wedding, and to pay Czech Republic a short yet nice visit.
Julia and Teddi were my best buddies who I worked with in Kandersteg International Scout Centre, Switzerland for 3 month. I witnessed the start of their story, the long yet sweet love across more than 10 years, and thus immediately decide I'll fly over to Frankfurt to attend their wedding party upon receiving the invitation. With great pleasure, I visited their warm house renovated by themselves, saw the cute, smart little boy of their own, and fully touched by the place full of love. Their wedding was held in the yard with friends and family from Iceland, all over Germany and from all other places which doesn't speak German or Icelandic at all. Yet, the hospitality for Mom and I was overwhelming, from each and everyone I met during the time.
The key takeaway- I'm more willing to believe in LOVE, again. And I'm so certain if anytime in the future I need to visit Germany, there's always a door open for me.
October 2016, I finally went back "Home" in Nagoya after 12 years apart (Photos)
Fifteen years ago thanks to a scouting camping event, I met my host family- Nakamura family- and kept in touch with them throughout the years. I heard that my younger sister Mayumi in Nagoya opened a new Cafe on an island around May, so that urged me to visit her and congratulated her achievement in person. Originally I was nervous because the family and I were not seen one another for more than a decade, but I was wrong. At the moment I met mommy at the ferry terminal, her smile and hug told me I was home. My Nagoya family members- daddy, mommy, brother and Mayumi took care of me in the way just like the old days, and you couldn't help wonder- if we were actually that far apart. No I wasn't a guest in the family. I am a part of the Nakamura's...
Keep on dancing- No regrets.
It's almost the end-of-year tradition now: the annual belly dancing performance. The intense practices would start around October, and this year I must remember all moves clearly for two of my favorite dances. Yes I enjoyed my time with my most powerful, coolest, sexiest moves as always. Due to the change of program arrangement, actually I feel less inspired this year, but I'm still quite satisfied with the fact that I can join my classmates and the teacher to achieve our goal together yet again. Believe it or not- I do want to continue dancing. I really do
Realize I'm still longing for the sparkle- No regrets.
I thought I went numb already. Luckily I unexpectedly found within the year that I am still deeply touched by something, and by someone.
You thought you've forgot about those pasts, but it just was dimer, hid deeper, and was put away for a longer time.
Once you reconnect with it, the entire universe will disclose many tiny signs, people, and things to urge you to face it bravely- regardless of time, space, stereotype barriers. You shall, fight for your happiness, or who else would?
If you're touched too, let's face it- together?
I still don't know how Lord will guide my way ahead.
I'm purely grateful for knowing that I'm still longing for the Sparkle, and for the miracle He prepares for me- without any regret.
May your new year comes with no regrets as well. Cheers!

Wendy報報之【無悔的2016】
Hi 親愛的你，一切好嗎？
不知不覺又到了歲末，回顧這一年，忍不住想寫些話給你，與你分享，無悔的這一年。
在專業上打拼付出、快速應變調整的這事兒上，無悔。
網路產業一如往常的瞬息萬變，在這段日子裡我經歷了幾波組織調整、職責變動、策略轉彎，近期被賦予的任務包含「產品行銷」：在推出新功能或改版時，用適合的方式介紹給用戶，以及「亞太區跨國行銷」：整合跨部門的共識後把擬訂好的行銷策略推展到各國，並協助必要的在地化調整，也包含維繫跨國的策略夥伴關係。
要逞強的說總是開心地忙著其實有點不符事實，但顛顛簸簸的走來，我越來越懂得相信：What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. 每一樁挑戰，都在磨練我用更聰明的方式看待和解決問題，用更圓融的方法磨合溝通。
而且，嘿，我即將要辦理人生的第二場小巨蛋演唱會了。籌備得好累，但是好有成就感！
在與珍愛的過往重新連結這事兒上，無悔。
今年六月初，我帶著媽媽一同飛往德國參加一對朋友的婚禮，順便走訪了捷克散散步。
Julia和Teddi是2005年跟我一起在瑞士Kandersteg童軍營地服務三個月的夥伴，我見證了他們的愛萌芽，見證了十年愛情長跑，也在收到喜帖的當下毫不遲疑的決定要飛向法蘭克福參與他們的婚宴，見證他們成了家、抱著寶貝兒子、蓋了一間屬於一家人的溫暖小屋。溫馨的婚宴辦在自家庭院裡，有從冰島飛來、從德國各地趕來的各方親友，也有少數幾位跟我一樣既聽不懂德文，也無法理解冰島語的國際友人－－但我和媽媽受到的款待與招呼，一點都沒讓我們覺得是外人。飛了這一趟重要的心得是：更願意相信愛，也更確知我如果隨時要去德國一趟，總有個家的大門為我敞開。
今年十月底，好不容易，我回了睽違十二年在名古屋的家。（照片集錦）
十五年前接待過我的中村一家人與我一直都有保持聯繫，因為獲知名古屋妹妹在小島上開了間咖啡廳，促成了我說什麼都要去為她捧場為她慶祝的旅程。十多年沒見的緊張，在渡船碼頭見到媽媽的那瞬間就消融殆盡了，爸爸、媽媽、妹妹、哥哥對我始終如一的照顧，超越所求所想的各種貼心安排，讓我根本感覺不到有那麼多年沒見。我彷彿不是個客人，紮紮實實就是中村家的一份子啊...
在堅持舞動這事兒上，無悔。
幾乎變成每年底的傳統，我再次參加肚皮舞年度發表會，從十月多開始密集練習，把自己很愛的兩首舞曲紮紮實實的記著，然後在表演當天盡情的、帥氣的、充滿活力的舞著。其實這年因為表演形式改變，練舞的爽快度沒有以往來得高，但跟著老師和一批認真的姊姊們為了同個目標努力，還是讓我覺得格外有衝勁。我想繼續跳下去，真的想 :)
在重拾心動的感覺這事兒上，無悔。
原以為我已經麻木。但幸好，我在這一年中偶然發現，自己還是會這麼強烈的感動著。
而且這份感動很奇妙，你以為已經忘了，但驀然回首才發現－－它只是被藏在比較深的地方，藏得比較久。
一旦被輕輕勾起，宇宙裡會忽然出現好多線索、好多人、好多事在明示暗示你去正視它，去拋下時間、空間、成見的侷限，去為了幸福賭一把。
如果你也心動，為什麼不勇敢一點，面對它？
我還不知道命運會怎麼帶領接下來的路，但我因著能重拾一份心動－－無悔。
願你新的一年，也能活出無悔的人生！Cheers!

Wendy E-news [Joyful life full of music]
Hi my lovely friends!
How's life? Sorry for being lazy for more than a year since last entry. Let me make it up for you now~
To begin with, for sure, the work part.
After being a Scout, drawing maps, selling computers, singing songs and selling fried chickens, now I'm back to life to listening to music.
End of July 2015, referred by some friends, I joined _X, Asia's leading online music streaming service founded in Taiwan & running in 6 countries. I'm responsible for overall member strategic marketing (CRM) projects and developing our business in Japan. Lucky enough, I'm working with an excellent manager and a crazily interesting team. We backed up for one another in all ways. My initial task included to lead several younger members to share my experiences and to help them grow. Thanks to my role to support Japan market, I thus picked up my long-lost (for >10 years) Japanese, and rediscovered my incredible potential and hidden talents.
The Best part to be back to music x internet industry is- I can get first hand pop music news and sometimes have intimate interactions with artists. As an example, I got a female singer to feed me my birthday cake this year :P I also got more opportunities to go for concerts. This January, as a new milestone in my life, I assisted my team to host a 12,000-audience concert with around 15 groups of artists from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea and Thailand to perform. That's something huh?
Well, however, I've encountered some puzzled organizational change recently. Something I love in this job is falling apart rapidly. I hope the chaos can disappear soon, so I can continue to make some big impact like I was doing before.
How hard it is to respect those professionals, and to empower the younger generation, especially in internet industry which relies so much on their creativity and judgement?
No matter how work treats you, you need to Get a GOOD LIFE!
Yes, I still do belly dancing and play ukulele in my leisure time. It's my 3rd year, and counting.
Last December at my annual belly dancing performance, my team picked a romantic costume which composed my favorite water blue and silver. Our dance was also an elegant one, which flew well with our dress. Therefore, I happily signed for 2 more years of dancing lessons short after the show.
(Meaning: you guys got at least two more chances to see my show!)
Another secret to stay energetic is to See the World! - at least it is the case for me.
October 2015, I went for the 10-year-reunion trip to Kandersteg International Scout Centre, Switzerland. My beloved Pinkies from Iceland, Germany, Swiss and I gathered again to enjoy hiking in the Alps, via ferrada (rock climbing), fondue, board game, and walks in our home-like KISC just like 10 years ago. It felt like we've never apart. Yet, two girls are getting married and soon will become mommy, while a boy will become a husband and daddy soon and wave goodbye to his childish life (I wish). Wow, it's That amazing how time will do his work.
On top of Alps, we set our reunion calendar again for 2020. We may meet in Germany, or Swiss, and we'll be surrounded by some pretty view and some little cuties. How can you not looking forward to that?
(Allow me to brag for just a moment: I can hike up to 2800M trail in 2005, so can I in 2015. I can do via ferrada in 2005, so can I in 2015! Yes, I'm still This cool =D )
Hey, one trip is simply Not enough you know. That's why I go for Cherry blossom this spring in Kyoto, Japan!
Exclude the Tokyo business trip in September 2015, it's actually my first trip to Japan in 12 years. One of my friends invited me to go with her and I thought- my language skill now is fair and I've never visited in Sakura season- why not? Off I go, and I am so very satisfied!
Below is a photo with me in Kimono and pink sakura.
Bathing in the sakura rain, both my body and mind are relaxed and full of joy, and I found ways to spoil myself in the elegant ancient town of Kyoto. Ever deeper, I believed in those precious values like-
- Always be warm and kind to those around;
- Always be passionate toward things and stay positive;
- Always stay Curious- even to unknown.
There's a saying in Chinese which I like a lot recently:
"If you bloom, the butterfly will come naturally; If you are fabulous, God will arrange something spectacular for you naturally."你若盛開，蝴蝶自來。你若精彩，天自安排。
Agree?
May you and those you love Fabulous.

Wendy報報之【充滿音樂的人生】
親愛的好朋友，好久不見！
赫然發現前次寫信問候大家是一年多前，哦．．．懶惰不是病，
例行報告第一條，工作。
經歷了當童軍、畫地圖、賣電腦、唱歌、賣雞人生之後，
2015年七月底，在朋友的引薦下，
回到音樂 x 網路產業的交集點最爽快之處，
不過話說...近期工作上又面臨到一些讓人不解的異動，
這年頭...尊重專業、相信年輕的一代並給他們舞台好好發揮，
尤其在網路產業＝這麼需要對年輕世代進行聰明溝通的產業，
無論工作順不順，人，都需要好好生活！
西低～不上班的時候，我的肚皮舞照跳、烏克麗麗照彈，
去年底的肚皮舞發表會，
（白話文就是：想看我表演的捧油，你們至少還有兩次機會呦～）
維持活力的另個妙招就是旅行、出走－－對我而言更是鐵律。
2015年10月，我踏上了回瑞士Kandersteg International Scout Centre的十年團聚之旅，跟十年前一起工作的冰島、德國、
在阿爾卑斯山顛，我們約好了2020再見。到時或許在德國、
（忍不住還是要炫耀一下：
嘿，一趟旅程當然是不夠的，所以我在今年春天追上了流行：
不算去年九月赴東京出差的行程，
－－而她完全沒令我失望。
獻上在盛開櫻花下穿上和服的照片一張，作為有圖有真相的佐證。
幾度櫻花雨中，我不只身心愉悅，
你若盛開，蝴蝶自來。你若精彩，天自安排。對嗎？
願，你與你所愛的人們，也能一切都好！

Wendy E-News[Fighting with life as a TWIT]
Hello my friends, how's life?
Time flies! What's so spectacular in the past half year on your side? How about me sharing mine first?
Subject number 1, work of course.
My fast food life with company K has passed 7 months surprisingly. It's a pleasure to utilize my digital marketing know-how and website/mobile development expertise in the current position. I felt especially lucky thanks to the great support and encouragement from IT and Operations department in the company. Outsourcing vendors and media buyers who have worked closely with me love me too-- I received much compliment directly and indirectly enough to be aware of it. How amazing!
Another part of the learning was about leadership. Interestingly I could see those role models who're always inspiring and caring, and see some horrible ones who made all those tragic decisions and drove people crazy-- or worse, leaving in light speed. As green as I am in the organization, I barely can do anything to combat the situation. However I could Always learn from the lessons-- NEVER do X, Y, or Z-- should I be a leader one day.
Next, about Life.

Previously I forgot to mention my two new habits in making: Belly Dancing, and Ukulele
Yes, these are totally random I know!
I started to learn belly dancing in True Yoga Taipei since September 2013. My adorable teacher Michelle and beautiful classmates from young lady to grandmas inspired me from day 1. I've joined two annual year-end performances in 2013 & 2014. I just couldn't help loving the move, the pose, the music, and the healthy, sexy self while dancing. Every Wednesday and Friday night is my default practice night, and I've tried my best to secure it from any other "disturbs." You know, belly dancing gives me a chance to discover my "wild" potential-- in my body, and in my soul.
As for Ukulele, I started it since April 2014 in WenShan Community College. Most of you should know that I've been playing the piano for years, but felt frustrated that I couldn't take it with me everywhere to share the joy of music. Ukulele fulfilled that part of my dream. My teacher Ms. Wang is marvelous too. Most of the classmates are elder moms while only few are around my age. She helped me pick up my long-lost music knowledge, gave me chances to assist others, and invited the class to join pro bono performances as much as we can to sharpen our playing skills and to be brave on stage. Best of all, most of us live in the WenShan district and gather together for practice or for fun in the nearby area often. I've enjoyed spending time with my classmates, and I got to know my neighborhood even better thanks to them.
How's that? Is this Wendy Young & Fabulous?
Yes, these are totally random I know!

Best of all, most of us live in the WenShan district and gather together for practice or for fun in the nearby area often. I've enjoyed spending time with my classmates, and I got to know my neighborhood even better thanks to them.
How's that? Is this Wendy Young & Fabulous?
Some other time, I hangout with two other groups of people: one is my board-game buddies, the other is some crazy extreme sports lovers. The prior gathered every 2 to 3 weeks, the later went hiking, long boarding, ice skating, skiing, board-gaming, dancing (salsa/swing), biking, rock climbing, water skating, scuba diving, playing ukulele, and the list can continue.
Well, do I have Any chance to get bored?
Yes I am still single, and I'm still searching for the One. However I will remember to enjoy the spectacular moments like right now no matter what. And, I will LOVE myself as much as I'm doing right now.
It shall work to you too. Cheers!

Wendy報報之【輕熟女的奮鬥人生】
親愛的好朋友，一切好嗎？
不知不覺又過了大半年，你的生活，是否一樣豐富又精采？事不宜遲，跟你分享我這邊都發生了些什麼事。
第一題，工作。
我的K_速食人生不知不覺已經超過半年，把自己最擅長的數位行銷與系統開發經驗套用到現職，暢快地發揮，一題一題的協助公司解開重重關卡，成就感十分豐沛。尤其幸運的是，公司內IT與營運部門的主管與同事很器重我，媒體代理商與網頁開發商也因著我的專業與體貼很喜歡跟我配合，很樂意在能力所及之處多幫我一點，更不吝惜向主管或其他同事誇獎我，常讓我深受感動。
在這裡的另一部分學習，則是關於領導統御方面的。同個組織裏我可以看到讓眾人折服、真正領導者的風采，也同時可以看到集所有負面領導教材於一身的災難性案例，讓底下的人做得又忙、又累、又缺乏尊嚴，終致讓優秀人才不斷的流失，組織運作總在搖搖欲墜邊緣徘迴。因為自己人微言輕，也無法真的做到什麼了不得的大改變，只能不斷提醒自己：真正的領導者絕對不會做Ｘ、Ｙ、Ｚ，如果是我，絕對不能再犯這些錯！

其次，生活。
先前好像一直忘了提到我積極培養的兩項新技能：肚皮舞、烏克麗麗。
是的，我的人生就這麼跳痛～
我從2013年9月開始在True Yoga跟著Michelle老師學肚皮舞，迄今已經參加過兩次年度發表會，同班同學不乏辣妹辣媽辣阿嬤，我從第一次上課開始深深被這種舞蹈優美性感的姿態吸引，也像是被老師和同學們下咒一般，好愛混入人群中放肆舞動的自己。每週三五兩天晚上，我都會盡力排除萬難前往練舞，因為跳舞讓我感覺健康，因為肚皮舞開發我肢體的（和靈魂中的）性感潛能；
烏克麗麗則從2014年4月起在文山社區大學跟著王欣華老師學藝，同班的除了幾個年輕夥伴，多數是一票媽媽級長者，迄今也已經參與過兩次期中發表會和幾次其他的公益表演。朋友們多是知道的，我雖然鋼琴彈了很多年，但總苦惱於自己不能揹著鋼琴四處走跳，無法輕鬆地分享音樂的美好。學了烏克麗麗以後這個夢想得到實踐的機會，而且欣華老師不但非常樂於把我年久失修的樂理基礎撿回來，還很積極地邀請我們到各地公益公演，練膽量也練琴藝。又因為多數的同學都住在文山區，所以大家也常於課後約在政大、文山一帶練琴玩耍，讓我更認識自己所居住的地方，對家更有歸屬感。
你說，這樣的Wendy，是不是依然Young & Fabulous?

其他的時候，我也常跟兩群人互動：一群一起在G社玩桌遊而結識的朋友，一個「台北野孩子極限運動玩樂團」。前面這群每月玩一至兩次桌游，後面這群登山健行、玩滑板、溜冰刀、滑雪、玩桌遊、跳舞、騎腳踏車、攀岩、滑水、潛水、彈烏克麗麗...
看出來了嗎？跟這群有趣的朋友玩在一起，我怎麼可能無聊？
我仍然一個人，也仍然在尋找另一個人。然而追尋的過程中，我會記得繼續這麼認真地享受每個精彩時刻、這麼樣寵愛自己。共勉之！

Wendy E-News[Let's make a turn in life]
Dear my friends, long time no see!
Yes, I've been hiding for too long, I know! Last time when I had some updates was nearly two years ago. Trust me, I will try my best to make it quick.
First, career-wise.
I left my previous job to search for the next milestone in life at the end of May. I used to love my job and many energetic coworkers there, but there were some changes in the company that slow me down. And I kept asking myself: "Can't you do more? Is this challenging enough for you?" That's why I chose to quit, to have a break, to reset, and to restart.
Tomorrow, I will join K_C Taiwan to be in charge of digital marketing and e-delivery business. It's actually my second time to work with the brand.
As some of you might recall, I used to work for K_C China as an intern in summer 2008 during my master's study. I was responsible for digital/mobile marketing planning back then. The head hunter noticed the nearly buried experience in my resume and thus connected me with them again. Interestingly, the office is across the street of my high school and is quite close to my first work place after college. Life is a miracle, isn't it?
Let's go for a trip, shall we?
Earlier May this year, for the first time (how embarrassing), I went on a trip to Hualian and Taitung in the East coast of Taiwan by myself. I rent a motorcycle or a car on my own, followed the instructions of the GPS to find ways, chatted with hostel owners or guests, went to the beach to yell, to laugh, and to cry out loud alone. For four full days, I tried to search for the long-lost independent and brave self, and I tried to calm down to find the sense of directions toward life.
This trip was titled as "the one to rebuild self-confidence."
The next one, was then "the trip to Find Wendy."
Early June, I flew to the US for a three-week-break: Half spent in the Bay Area, the other in Chicago. When I felt so swamped, I desired a trip to somewhere I can fully relax without too much planning. Luckily I have many friends in the Bay Area to welcome me, and I could utilize the chance to be a happy tourist to enjoy the wonders it could offer. As for Chicago, I intentionally went back to hug those familiar faces, to visit those life corners, to stay at my "home in Chicago", to ride on the same train to school, back home, shopping, to sit in MY classroom to recall those struggling moments and the shinning, fearless face of my own. Nearly every single day, or even every meal, I spent with different friends to catchup, to enjoy our stories, and to share thoughts with wisdom. I was sincerely grateful of every single day and every single person I managed to meet during the trip. All those recharged and refreshed me entirely.
Time for some different news, I'm afraid- relationships.
I became single again at the end of last year. He left in an unbelievable (even unbearable) way. Friends who are close to me understood how shocking and devastating that was to me. Those days were purely like walking through the darkest valley. I spent more than half a year to put myself together, to avoid negative emotions, and to believe "this precious girl, Wendy, deserve someone better!"
Thanks a million to those family and friends who sent your warmest regards and encouragements to me during the days. Your love and prayers across the border and timezone means a lot to me.
I will become even stronger for you.
I will move on with your love in my heart.
May All Is GREAT as Always!

Wendy報報之【在生命轉彎的地方】
親愛的你們，好久不見！
是的，我躲起來好久了。距離前一次跟大家更新近況已經接近兩年，翻天覆地的兩年歲月啊...這次，且讓我挑重點講。
首先，事業。
今年五月底，我揮別了 i 公司，邁向尋找生涯下一個里程碑。我曾經熱愛那份工作，也始終熱愛許多一起打拼的好朋友們，但公司有些轉變與調整讓我感覺越來越使不上力，也讓我不斷問自己「你就這麼點能耐嗎？難道你不該迎向更多更高的挑戰？」於是我選擇毅然決然的辭職、放自己一個假、歸零，準備重新開始。
而明天，我即將加入台灣K_負責數位行銷與外送服務企劃，與她再續前緣。
或許有人還記得我2008年在美就讀期間曾於暑期到中國K_實習，當時也曾仔細規劃過數位/行動行銷方案；此次重新洽談工作時，人力資源公司的顧問細心注意到此項幾乎淹沒在眾多經歷中的細目，因而促成了此次的緣分。也很恰巧的是，K_辦公室就坐落在我高中母校正對面，童軍總會斜對面，多年之後生活的重心又再度返回那熟悉的區塊，生命的安排真的很奇妙啊！
其次，旅行。
說來慚愧，今年五月初，我才第一次踏上一個人的國內旅行前往花東。第一次自己一個人租機車、或租汽車上山下海，一個人聽著導航找路，一個人窩在民宿裡跟老闆或其他旅人聊天，一個人到海邊大叫大笑流眼淚。在花東闖蕩的四天，我試著把那個獨立勇敢闖天涯的Wendy找回來，也試著沉澱，把未來生命的方向感找回來。
花東的旅程，被我定調為「信心重建之旅」。
離開工作崗位的六月初，我更直接飛向睽違五年的美國，到矽谷灣區玩耍，回芝加哥探親訪友停留近一個月。這，則是紮紮實實的「尋找Wendy之旅」。
在生命如此迷網又如此停滯的當時，我渴望一趟旅行，但又怯於為一個充滿未知的地點計畫安排一切，於是選擇朋友眾多、又充滿熟悉感的美國做為訪問的目的地。我刻意到矽谷一帶玩耍，讓好朋友們當我溫暖的後盾，把多年前還沒來得及造訪的區塊一一集滿；我刻意回到芝加哥擁抱那些熟面孔、走訪那些生活的角落，住在把我視如己出的接待家庭媽媽家，坐一樣的車、走一樣的路去上學、回家、購物，坐進教室裡回味一下當時奮鬥的感覺，尋覓當時那張青春、熱烈、一無所懼的臉孔。我幾乎天天，甚至餐餐都與不同的故舊親朋共享佳餚，分享彼此的故事，也互相提供建議，彼此砥礪。
我萬分感恩那段日子裡的每一天、每一個遇見的人。所有的點點滴滴都讓我返回台灣時，充飽了滿滿的電！
因為不該報喜不報憂，所以最後要提的，是感情。
去年底，我重新恢復單身。他以令人無法理解（甚至無法容忍）的方式離去。親近我的朋友都知道那對我而言是多大的打擊，那段日子，確實像是「走過死蔭的幽谷」。我花了大半年去重組自己，也花費很大的力氣去脫離所有的負面消極情緒，去重新相信「這麼優的Wendy值得更好的！」
非常謝謝在那段日子裡伸出援手來抱著我、陪伴我、為我打氣、聽我說話、陪我落淚的家人和朋友們，尤其謝謝那些跨越時區的限制、或拖著疲憊身軀在夜裡仍願借我一雙耳朵、陪我禱告的好朋友們。
我，會為了你們堅強起來。
我，會一直帶著你們的愛 前行。
願，一切都好！

Wendy E-News [Everything is the Best Arrangement]
Dear Friends,
Sometimes when one is overly busy, she would desire to do something totally irrelevant. "I've spent so much time writing business articles recently. It seemed like a good timing to write down some life record instead." The thought stoke me when walking on my way back home. So here it is, my e-newsletter to you all. Oops, the last one was done almost a year ago...Sorry!
Life was quite interesting in the past half year, actually. There major themes: Work, Cat and Relationship.
Life was quite interesting in the past half year, actually. There major themes: Work, Cat and Relationship.
I checked my earlier description about my work and happily found out what I felt and acknowledged about it stayed valid even until now.
- I was busy, and apparently became busier than earlier. Luckily I enjoyed my busy life and oftentimes felt energetic toward all challenges. Inspirations hit me every now and then, and I almost always couldn't wait to turn ideas into actions- though this could make me busier again.
- I felt tired, and sometimes to the extend that resembled my old time in the previous company. Again however, I didn't feel bad about it for knowing what I'm doing and for knowing I was not fighting alone. My team rocks!
- The sense of achievement has never been stronger! Thanks to all the previous experiences and helpful networks, I has been handling large-scale projects and tasks that exceeded my current profile, but I was doing okay so far. Optimistically, I know my team and I can make it together. We together can make it!
Cats. Now it's plural because Pipi got a baby sister, who we called "Princess."
My aunt found her on the streets and sent her to us, believing this would be the best way for the little kitty. We discussed about if we should keep her or send it to someone else, and she indeed brought some (bad?!) impacts to Pipi earlier, but it all turned out fine when time passed by. You could see two cats cuddling, chasing around, fighting for food and drinks together now. You could also find them go one after another to ask for a hug from my families. Yes they are two trouble makers for sure, but yes they brought us laughter and happy tears frequently.
Thank you Pipi and little Princess! Thanks to you two, this six-"persons" family is one full of joy and happiness.
Oh well, I guess I shouldn't keep you waiting for too long. The Relationships session.
I received many complaints so far, blaming that I dissapeared after I met Harry. People also indicated that we two were too "shining" together. Sorry, forgive me! He is simply too great, that's why. ^______^b
Let's describe Harry this way: He is a simple person, very smart and wise, and is very humble. He is very healthy physically and mentally, and has steady exercise pattern. Furthermore, he would force me, and happily take me to do some sports when possible. "You should stay fit and healthy. This is great for you!" He is very responsible, and he strives to meet his goals with full ambition. It is never his style to fight for personal performance only, he keeps his team members in mind. He takes great care of himself, and he takes similar attention to me always. Happily he introduced me to those people important to him, and he cared about those I cherished dearly. He respects me, the very original, natural style of me, and encourages me to stay just the way I am. He never asked me to change for him, except for pushing me to do more exercise and to eat carefully, and very occasionally- he pushed me to manage my bad temper.
Our story is not special either. Purely we were two common persons who met at a common occasion, and we naturally became close. We were born at the same month, same year, and we were both Aquarius, type O, with the sign of dog. We got many more similarities, so I guess that's why.
I am very happy now: Work-wise, Cat-wise, or Relationship-wise. I believe everything is the best arrangement.
Hope the story on your end is the same :)
Love,
Wendy

Wendy報報之【一切都是最好的安排】
各位親愛的好朋友們，
有時候人狂忙到喘不過氣的時候，反而會想做一些完全不相關，卻覺得非做不可的事情。譬如：寫這篇報報給你們。「寫了這麼多工作上的文稿，好像是時候寫點東西記錄自己的生活了喔？」今天散步回家的路上腦中忽然動了這個念頭，回家查閱了一下，想不到我已經快要一年都沒更新了～唉呀真是對不起大家...
其實這大半年來生活很精彩的。主要就是三件大事：工作、貓咪、和感情。
我很認真的去看了前一次自己對工作的敘述，也很欣喜的發現現下跟快一年前的認知與感受其實是很接近的。
新的服務推出以後，還有勞各位幫我多多推廣試玩喔～認識我那麼久，你們懂的，如果是我自己都沒FU的東西，我才懶得推薦親朋好友來賞玩呢～
貓咪們，現在要寫成複數，因為皮皮多了一個妹妹：公主。
小阿姨的朋友在南部路邊撿到她，因緣際會之下我家成了最適合收養她的地方。原先我們還針對要不要讓家裡多隻貓爭論不休，公主來了之後也的確曾經對皮皮造成不小的（負面？）衝擊，不過時間奇妙的解決了很多問題。現在有時候會看到皮皮哥哥親密的在幫公主舔毛，也會看到兩隻小傢伙在家裡四處追著玩耍追著跑，伴隨到處哀哀叫；兩隻貓咪還常常湊著搶食物吃搶水喝，三不五時也會注意到他們前仆後繼的跑去跟爸爸媽媽或我和弟弟爭寵，黏人又搞怪的行徑總讓我們又好氣又好笑。但是我們一家人也因此擁雙貓為貴，生活多了好多樂趣，家中平添了很多笑聲。
謝謝兩隻小傢伙，謝謝皮皮和公主！有你們在家，我們一家六口都好幸福 ：）
好吧～很多人等這段等很久了，感情。
我被身邊的朋友酸很多次了，說我嚴重重色輕友，又抱怨我幹嘛三不五時就放強力閃光彈瞎翻眾人。啊沒辦法咩～因為他太棒了！ ^______^b
就這麼形容他吧：他是個很樸實的人，很聰明很有智慧，而且一點也不驕傲。他很健康，有很規律的運動習慣、很健康的心態，而且會逼著我、陪著我做運動，叮嚀我要把身體養好。他非常有責任心、企圖心，說好的目標就會盡全力達標，而且會拉著團隊一起前進，不會只爭個人表現。他很懂得照顧自己，也很會照顧我，同時重視我週邊的人，也樂於帶我一起認識對他而言重要的人。他完全尊重我最真實的模樣，鼓勵我做原來的自己，除了管我的運動和飲食，和忍不住的幾次念念我的臭脾氣，他不曾要求我為他改變什麼。
而我們的故事呢，其實也真的不怎麼特別。就是兩個很一般的人很自然的遇見，然後很自然的就靠近了。除了我們同年同月同星座同生肖同血型以外，我們還有許多驚人的相似點，這大概就是之所以會這麼奇妙的原因吧～
現在我很幸福。無論是工作、貓咪或者感情，我都感受得到滿滿的幸福。因為相信：一切都是最好的安排。
希望在你那端的故事也是如此 ：）
愛你的,
Wendy
我很認真的去看了前一次自己對工作的敘述，也很欣喜的發現現下跟快一年前的認知與感受其實是很接近的。
- 我很忙，比之前明顯還忙，可是我忙得很愉快很有衝勁，而且我再忙也都會忽然又發現新的點子，想要換個方式衝衝看，就算這樣一來可能會把自己搞得更忙
- 我會累，最近累的程度甚至快要跟在前公司不相上下，可是因為我忙得很開心很有勁，又有很多有梗的同事們一起打拼，我常常忘記疲累，也鮮少真的喊累（麻木？！）
- 我更有成就感了！感恩先前累積的各式各樣經驗與各路人脈，也感恩之前遇過的大風大浪，就算我現在負責操盤的專案規模龐大到有時候自己都覺得不可思議，可是我總樂觀的相信也期待著：做得出來的！這個都搞定就大勝了！因為我不是孤軍奮鬥，我有一個超棒的團隊當堅強後盾！

Wendy E-News[The Change]
Dear Friends,
Greetings! I hope you are all well. Sorry for keeping silent for a long time again; there were simply too many things happening in the period of time. The most apparent one: I changed my job.
I was with company A: high-tech, hardware, manufacturer, and selling innovation and leading technologies;
Now I am with company i：high-tech, software, entertainment, and producing happiness while sharing the touching moment of life.
But Life is a miracle, as it Always is. Three days after my resignation proposal, I heard about this current position; within a week, including all earlier opportunities in talk, I received Three different but all exciting job offers.
「If you want something, all the universe conspire to help you」
When I decide to change, all the universe conspire to help me change.
In mid November, I thus officially left the company and sailed for my new adventure.
Here is some little moments that I would love to share with you, too:
Merry Christmas! and a Happy New Year!
Love,
Wendy
This is such a MARVELOUS change! Company i is a small startup, and we are providing online KTV services to empower our users to be a super star.
I said, we are selling a dream.
I said. we are selling some endless happiness
I said, we are selling a dream.
I said. we are selling some endless happiness
There are so many things that awaits me to learn and to get involved, but I've discovered many things that I could play with-- I've got bunch of ideas in mind. My brilliant new team, some expected and some beyond my anticipation, also made me feel so energetic every single day. There were simply too many sparkles! At least I noticed: the Cute Wendy is back~ My mom is quite happy too, since I now got more time to be home for dinner, she saw more smiles than depressed faces, and she got her little girl surrounding her talking about the fun things happening during the day- just as the old school time- yet again. :)
As for the other parts, I only traveled once in the year: a business trip to Hanover, Germany, and via a transfer at Frankfurt, I flew to Madrid, Spain to visit some friends and relax.
Not too much to mention about work. Due to the stress, I got ill with fever for two whole days during CeBit, and I introduced the products to media and clients continuously, including some interviews. Unfortunately I didn't get any video records at CeBit, but I did get some interesting ones at COMPUTEX in June. You may check theme here: English oneor Mandarin one. (oops, off topic)
Before turning to Madrid to visit my university girl friend and her husband, I saved half a day in Frankfurt to meetup with my KISC pinkies, Juli
If you asked me, I would tell you I Love the atmosphere in Spain without second thought. Time flew slow there. You can smell freedom and relaxation easily. I was in love with the fact that I could explore among the ancient but stylish architectures, while I would accidentally find impressive music or dance performance on my way at the corner. I love the friendly people there, because they were trying to guide me or to share some local secrets with me even though we didn't speak the same language. I was totally touched by the love birds, my friend and her husband, because they just so naturally blended in the scenery to make Spain even more charming. It's hard. It's hard to say goodbye to Madrid. No matter how many postcards I sent out, or how many photos I took, I knew there's a "MUST" for me to embrace its beauty in person, again.

Before turning to Madrid to visit my university girl friend and her husband, I saved half a day in Frankfurt to meetup with my KISC pinkies, Juli
If you asked me, I would tell you I Love the atmosphere in Spain without second thought. Time flew slow there. You can smell freedom and relaxation easily. I was in love with the fact that I could explore among the ancient but stylish architectures, while I would accidentally find impressive music or dance performance on my way at the corner. I love the friendly people there, because they were trying to guide me or to share some local secrets with me even though we didn't speak the same language. I was totally touched by the love birds, my friend and her husband, because they just so naturally blended in the scenery to make Spain even more charming. It's hard. It's hard to say goodbye to Madrid. No matter how many postcards I sent out, or how many photos I took, I knew there's a "MUST" for me to embrace its beauty in person, again.
Here is some little moments that I would love to share with you, too:
- Early May, I tried my first river tracing in life @Wulai, Taiwan.
I know I must go for another runs next summer! - COMPUTEX in June was crazy. I had fever before the exhibition and I lost my voice during the entire week. My hard work paid off, however, since many people were impressed by our show. Yes, I made it!
- Mid of September, more than 20 juniors from the IMC program of Northwestern University came to Taiwan for a one-week visit. I took them to visit JiouFen for a day, got some Taipei city tour, and booked a big chamber for all to sing Karaoke. Wow! That was one of the highest Karaoke night I've ever experienced!
- I traveled to Yilan in the end of September thanks to company tour. I did paragliding for the first time in life, and I stayed in the luxurious Hotel Royal Chiao Hsi.
- Although I really did not want it to happen again, I was sent to ER again due to allergy in early October. The doctor checked my allergy report again and told me there was nothing special I could do to avoid it from mysteriously happening again. I started to carry my pills with me whenever I went out since then.
- Yes, I still love rock climbing. One of my goals for the coming year is to climb more often, to take advanced lessons, and to become more professional if possible!
Merry Christmas! and a Happy New Year!
Love,
Wendy

Wendy報報之【轉變】
各位親愛的好朋友們，
如同各位先前所知的，在A公司兩年多的學習對我來說是非常豐富的，卻也是非常煎熬的－－因為在對所有的任務都熟稔到可以高效處理的同時，離我自己想做的事情距離越來越遠，而我也越來越喪失創新的能力和想像力。我掙扎了很久才痛下決心，勇敢的告訴栽培我兩年多的長官「請放手讓我去飛，去我想去的地方闖。」即使當時我根本還不知道未來會在哪裡...
大家平安大家好～請原諒我再次消失了很久，只是因為這段期間發生了太多太多的事。最明顯的轉變是：
原來的我在A公司：高科技、硬體、製造業、販賣精準的研發與技術；
現在的我在i公司：高科技、軟體、娛樂圈、
說也奇妙，就在我提出辭呈的三天後，我接觸到了現職的機會；而在一週內，包含先前已經在談的幾項工作，我瞬間接到了三個各異但卻都很有趣的job offer。
「當你誠心想要一個東西的時候，全宇宙都會幫你達成。」
當我誠心決定要改變的時候，全宇宙都來幫助我改變。
十一月中，我於是正式揮別了關渡，準備開始另一段人生的旅程。
其他的部分呢，今年目前為止只有一趟遠行：
出差的部分就少提了，
愛你的
Wendy
這個改變真的改。對。了。i公司
我說：我們在賣一個夢想。
我說：我們在賣無窮的歡樂。
才剛進公司的我雖然還有很多要學習要摸索的事情，可是我已經從好多地方去發掘到了這些、那些可以嘗試可以玩看看的事情，預期中會遇到，和超乎所求所想居然真的遇上的鬼才工作夥伴們，也讓我每一天超有幹勁！我至少注意到了一件事：那個個性其實 很可愛 的Wendy回來啦～媽媽也很開心，因為那個被工作壓到總是看不到人，或者整天只剩下愁眉苦臉的小女兒，現在常常可以回家陪她吃飯，而且又恢復像小時候一樣什麼好玩的事情都愛圍著她一直講一直講的狀態囉 ：）
其他的部分呢，今年目前為止只有一趟遠行：
出差的部分就少提了，
其他的一些瑣瑣碎碎，請容我列點精簡帶過：
- 五月初我嘗試了生平第一次溯溪@烏來加九寮溪，
以後我一定還要再攻別條！ - 六月的COMPUTEX好辛苦，這次我從展前就開始發燒，
然後紮實的燒聲了一整個禮拜。不過展得真的很成功， 成果大受各方好評，超有成就感啦！ - 九月中西北大學IMC學弟妹一整批二十多人訪台，
我陪他們九份一日遊以外， 也逛了市區也整團開了一大個包廂唱KTV，整場嗨翻天！ - 九月底員工旅遊跑去宜蘭走走玩玩，
我在外澳跳了生平第一次飛行傘， 享受了第一次進駐礁溪老爺酒店的尊榮體驗！ - 十月初我又全身過敏了一次，又搭了救護車搖晃進到淡水馬偕。
過敏原就算檢查出來還是像個謎， 頭大不已的我於是開始認真隨身帶藥，隨時以防萬一！ - 我還是很愛攀岩，也還是三不五時就會想揪團大爬一陣，
明年的目標之一是：多爬！上進階課！爬成精！
正如同我說的：我回來了。生活的步調也回來了。
聖誕快樂，並賀新年！
愛你的
Wendy

Wendy E-News[Long Time No See!]
Dear friends,
When the Chinese "Rabbit Year" is approaching, I just realized-- it's time to send out my seasonal greetings to all of you. Happy New Year of Rabbit! Hope your life can jump start into a brand new stage full of happiness, laughters, and healthy style! Please also accept my sincere apology for keeping quiet for so long. Hope it's not THAT long for you to forget this little girl in Taiwan :P
I have been on my current position for over 1.5 years- time did fly. Several rounds of ups and downs sharpened my skills and smoothed my temper, also thanks to the great tolerance and guidance from my seniors and coworkers, I have made some progress little by little. My never-ending busy schedule, somehow, made me confused about "what EXACTLY had I done so far?"-- what a shame. You know, maybe that was the way work is....
Besides work life, the highlight of the past six months was my 5-year reunion trip back to Switzerland!
I worked in Kandersteg International Scout Centre, Kandersteg, Switzerland in Autumn 2005 for three months, and my crew-- six of us all from different countries-- started to plan for a 5-year reunion since beginning of 2010. We ended up got 5 flew/drove back to where our stories started in mid-October. We gathered to recall what was happening in our season, and what happened after we departed. Trust me, 5 year stories for 5 people accumulated = magic!
It was nearly impossible to described the feelings when we finally met face-to-face again at the airport or at the stations; when we all sat down round the same table to enjoy meals or to drink; when we baked a cake again together to celebrate a birthday for one of us; when we stepped for yet another overnight hiking in ALPS (how dare we were, old fellows!); when we climbed up the same, familiar big rock; when we explored a nearby city altogether; and when we were crazy playing the same silly play card game like 5 years ago-- and all refused to admit s/he was tired and needed to go to bed! It seemed like we were never away, nor apart. And guess what-- our minds were already set for the 10 year reunion next time! Maybe some of us will bring kids along then? (Here's some photos for your reference）
After my Kandersteg reunion, I also visited some friends in Zurich, including visiting G office to meet one of my mentors- Daniel and lovely Patricia who I first met in Taipei. The same city is always much more charming when I have some adorable friend to meetup with. They ARE the reason I would love to come back over and over again. Furthermore, I also had a quick 3-day visit to Vienna, Austria to enjoy its unique beauty of flowing music all around and its royal elegance. I felt noble while walking around naturally! I'd love to revisit when summer so that I can capture all outdoor concerts as more as possible. When will that be then?
Well, I am fine. Hope you are BETTER! Let's work hard for our new year of Rabbit! Yes, we can have a rocket start!
Love,
Wendy

W報報之【好久不見】
各位親愛的好朋友們，
不知不覺我在現在的工作中已經歷練超過一年半的時光，工作中的學習與甘苦幾個輪轉也大多了然於心。感謝前輩們的照顧與提攜，他們幫我一點一滴的進步，有些業務我也已經從第一次接觸進步到第二次甚至第三次處理，越來越駕輕就熟。不過從來馬不停蹄的忙碌，已經讓我自己要回顧的時候想不出來到底都忙了些甚麼，真是有些慚愧。
工作的部分大約如此。過去的這段時間另外最值得一提的，是我回瑞士一趟的『返鄉團聚之旅』。
2005年秋季一同在Kandersteg International Scout Centre工作生活了三個月的夥伴們，從2010年初就開始計畫要辦個五年團聚。最後我們敲定在光輝的國慶日假期左右，從世界各地五個國家的人就這麼傻呼呼的排除萬難飛了、爬了回去，一起聚首在我們的故事開始的地方，一起重溫過去的種種，也一起分享我們分散各地的這四五年裡，彼此的人生究竟發生了什麼奇妙的變化。
真的很難形容當我們在機場、在車站裡又碰了頭，在餐廳、在酒吧裡又圍著同一張桌子坐下一起享用餐點，一起為同一個夥伴做蛋糕慶生，一同再次步上隔夜高山健行之旅，一同攀上同一座熟悉的岩壁，一起去探索一座臨近的城市，徹夜捨不得的瘋狂玩著四五年前就讓我們著迷的同一個紙牌遊戲的感覺.....彷彿我們從未離開，也彷彿我們不曾分離。而且我們已經預約好五年後的再聚喔！那時的我們，會不會有些已經要攜兒帶女？（有圖有真相之圖片特輯）
同一趟旅程的後段，我還有訪問Zurich的另外兩批好朋友，很幸運的拜訪了G Zurich office，和在台北結緣的Patricia & Daniel再聚。同樣的一座城市，我總是因為有可愛的朋友們可以拜訪而讓她感覺格外美麗。從他們身上看到、感受到的獨特氣息，更讓我篤定要我再來幾次我都願意！另外，我還延伸自己的腳步到音樂之都維也納做三天兩夜的火速拜訪。維也納的優雅與古皇室的典雅氣息散發在城市的每一個角落，行走其間的自己忍不住都覺得高貴了起來。未來有機會我也想在夏季再訪，把所有的露天音樂會盡情網羅，不飲而醉。
我還好，希望你比我還好。新的一年讓我們一起加油！鴻兔大展！
愛你的
Wendy

Wendy E-News[The Previous Half Year-- Rocking Impressive!]
I just realized that I've been quiet for around half a year-- Wow! That's unacceptable and I should keep you posted~
So here I am-- alive, fine, and missing you as always. :)
For the past six months, naturally, most of my life was occupied by work. I was blessed by my energetic team that I could attend several forms of celebrations for our outstanding achievements in Q1 and Q2. We went shrimp fishing, taste Chinese hot pot, bowling, and crush many more restaurants. When I thought I was purely celebrating with them, my managers mentioned my contributions in public for several times in various forms. "I like the pace of our current marketing practices," he said, "and those reports you conducted were quite helpful for presentations with higher management team." One of the vendor partner also mentioned to my manager, and to me directly, that he loved to cowork with me-- "Wendy's aggressive at work and react promptly. I know I can count on her to make things happen."
Thank you for the support and sweet words. What I know for sure is-- what I've done so far were just some basic values I can offer; my potential and my core competency are far beyond those. I have confidence in this.
Also worth mentioning were my learning at COMPUTEX Taipei 2010 early June. That exhausted me seriously, but I indeed learned a lot. For around two months I prepared everything to host the exhibition, from booth design, print material to human resources allocation. I was there at the booth for five full days, and I sometimes must respond to media interviews. Here's a Mandarin video clip for your reference....
The most unbelievable part, however, was my surprisingly lucky business trip to Suzhou & Shanghai in July.
It was a one-week short visit, but it was a intense one. I met colleagues in Suzhou to streamline our work flow, and visited two factories to understand and to witness how our product was produced. As for Shanghai, I spent time in 3C stores, consulted sales, collected first-hand competitors info to study Chinese market. (Felt so like KFC market research all over again, right?) I found the trip very informative and inspiring. In-depth discovery by oneself always rocks!
It's time to end the workaholic talking now. Alright, time to have some fun-- and I did have fun in Shanghai!
It would be a sin to waste my weekend in Shanghai, so I reconnected with friends met in China, US, or in Taiwan-- Vali, Julia (IMC'08), Grace(IMC'10) and Howard. The warmth I felt from the reunion was tremendous considering our friendship across time and space. I additionally utilized my time to stroll along Lujiazhui bank, to hit on EXPO Shanghai 2010, to visit Dr. Sun Yat-sen's former residence, and to revisit Taikang Road.
Shanghai remains a glamorous city as usual, and my lovely friends always could make her ever more irresistible. :)
When it comes to one place on earth where I completely got relaxed during this period of time--Bali, Indonesia.
Thanks to my friend Emilie's company, my five days was beyond description: cerulean sky, marshmallow clouds, beach with tender sand.... Heaven.
We also hit a volcano at Kintamani & rice terrace, got wild in water, ate a ton, spoiled ourselves in luxurious pool villa, did nothing but relax at the Kuta beach, shopping, and (you'll hate me for the last one....) SPAs.
Heaven yeah, we were there to take a break. And Bali fully satisfied us.
Last golden question, where's THE ONE for Wendy?
Let's pray...... :P
Love,
Wendy

W報報之【無盡驚喜充滿的大半年】
發現原來自己有半年沒消沒息的時候，連我都嚇了一跳！各位親朋好友們，我還在，我很好，我依舊惦念著大家。
大半年中工作自然充滿了我生活最大多數的角落。這段時間以來，感謝團隊累積的巨大能量，我沾光跟著參加了幾個慶功，把蝦也釣了、天府麻辣鍋也嘗了、保齡球也打了、鴨霸王熱炒也吃了。在我還覺得自己只是幸運的陪著大家慶祝的時候，老闆三番兩次在會議裡直接點名、或舉起了杯指明肯定我的貢獻：「Marketing的步調不一樣了，很有節奏」、「你提供的資料真的很好用，跟大老闆們KPI前剪一剪就很清楚」...等等，等等。也有趣的是，連vendor都曾經在電話中直接跟我說，也對我的直屬主管說，現在要談合作的步調和方式相當順暢，因為他知道可以倚靠我、信任我。
如果真的要說這半年來哪裡讓我真正的休息、釋放，那就非峇里島莫屬了。
謝謝我可愛朋友的陪伴，峇里島的五天四夜滿溢著的，真的是幸福滿滿的藍天白雲。
我們同遊了峇里島的火山、梯田，跳入超清涼的海水玩了大半天的水上活動；我們大啖美食、住了兩晚豪華pool villa、在KUTA海灘上純玩水純發呆、用自在的步調優閒逛街買東西；當然少不了的，還有這種那種精油按摩和SPA。
是的，我們都是去放鬆的。而峇里島之行讓我們完全達到目的囉~
至於交朋友呢...哎呀，no good luck yet. Wish me luck?

謝謝各位的厚愛啊～我只能這麼說。
心底知道的是：這也不過就是我能提供的基本價值，我的潛力、我的核心競爭力豈止如此而已。
不得不順帶提起的，還有在六月初第一次籌辦大展COMPUTEX的震撼教育。產業界的年度大事硬是讓我非得使用渾身解數招架不可，除了展前兩個多月期間緊鑼密鼓安排展場布置、文宣內容、配製人員資源、張羅展品等等的瑣事，展示期間站台整整五天的考驗以外，還會有國內外的媒體來採訪，有時候我就得要親上火線很害羞的把展品內容從頭到尾說明一次。這段影片就是證明啊.....
其實最不可思議的是，我的莫名強運又讓公司派我七月份出差去蘇州+上海一週...
在蘇州的時候除了跟當地的同事們見面，感謝大家長期以來的指點也了解大家工作的方式、可以改進以便利事務順暢進行的環節以外，也有幸走訪了兩個廠區，去實際了解並目睹產品製作的流程，體會品管細膩之處。到了上海我們則是跟著業務親訪了賣場，聽他們說中國業務銷售的狀況、看自家產品與競爭者產品在店頭陳列擺放和被推銷的模樣。這次行萬里路，果真是價值連城，讓我收穫非常豐富。

工作的部分大約如此。蘇州上海行恰巧可以順暢架接回我生活中的另一大塊重心：玩樂。
在上海的最後一個週末總不好浪費，於是我把老朋友們連絡連絡，開開心心的就把在美國、在上海或在台灣認識的Howard, Julia, Grace和Vali找出來碰面了。這些可愛的熟面孔從2001年起陸續開始與我有時空交錯的緣分，能夠再次聚首自然讓我感覺異常溫暖。聚會的時間裡，或者在聚會間的空檔，我在陸家嘴河岸邊散步、到了上海美術館、湊熱鬧巡了上海世博、到國父孫中山故居緬懷故人、晃了周(恩來)公館、重遊泰康路.....
上海還是這樣有魅力的一座城市。而我可愛的朋友們，總是能為她添加幾許風情 :)

Wendy E-News[Get An Energetic Tiger Year with You in 2010]
First of all, with my lovely little tiger Pipi in my arms, allow me to say Happy New Year to you! Hope each and everyone of you get a brand new year, brand new dreams with so many exciting challenges and those you cherished surrounding you!
When looking back at what I have done within this period of time-- first thing first-- I've passed the probation of A company and can now claim that I'm a full-time staff. With many helps and advices from my manager and my coworkers, I survived the training to work as both a Sales PM and a Marketing PM; I worked on several competitive analysis, market research, and internal XX ROI analysis within limited time with above-the-standard quality; I helped review and renew some working processes and rules; I supported several exhibitions and media visit preparations; totally out of my manager's expectation, I couldn't help working on some additional research to convince the team about other valuable concepts for us, such as SEO.
Totally, work was tough, and I missed the time on the 73 floor badly. But I also understood that I must move forward steadily....
Actually..... I volunteered to work on something even exhausting. With the request and encouragement of Joey, my NTUMUN president always, and the supports of other alum, we together started up the "Taiwan Model UN Development Association" to integrate more resources for model UN event promotions in Taiwan. Quietly I became the president of the preparatory board; also quietly I was assigned as the Secretary General for the Association. I led the administrative, PR and finance specialists to go through all establishment processes and may officially get up and running at the end of January 2010.
Align with that, I served as one of the consultants for Harvard World Model UN 2010 in Taipei. That is a history-breaking thing that ever happened for NTUMUN society in 10 years. The staff team is the most powerful one ever. They have to prepare for the event with around 2,000 students from 200 universities and more than 50 countries in the world. Much more exciting, there will be around 18 delegations from Taiwan to attend the conference! I was constantly inspired and astonished by the work the staff team has done when meeting with them. From my point of view, all core staff can enroll in Harvard MBA directly after graduation! (If you're willing to know more, even better-- if you are thinking of donating or being of help in other ways, feel free to leave me a message!)
Okay, the heavy part of life should stop here. What follows is the Wendy-style never-ending life of laughters and fun!
- Who says that Taiwanese doesn't celebrate Halloween? I did-- with so many cute fellows in the place I LOVE so deeply!
From 091031- Halloween Party - My super lucky year made it possible for me to catch up the team-building trip to Hong Kong for 2 days. (Thanks G for bringing me up to Beijing! Thanks A for showing me Hong Kong!)
From 981106-08 HK - Christmas wasn't wasted either. I had a crazy "passed celebrity" party with coworkers, and I got together with the 8 sisters to enjoy vegetarian hot pot and impressive gifts!
From 091224-27-Christmas - Some other reunions/get-togethers/birthday parties/farewell parties of NTU friends, Chicago friends, elementary school friends and so on.... I did enjoy quite a bit to keep myself in high spirit!
Year 2009 was indeed not a smooth year. When I took a quick glance of it, however, it wasn't that bad. Wishes you all the best in 2010-- With me :)
Love,
Wendy
