Silence is gold?

Back to support PIB since July.
1st project was e-statement auto enrollment. 
Although it was rush and I was a little bit unprepared...but it still rolled out successfully.
Then while helping my colleague take up the unfinished UAT, I also preparing for next project - eIBFT.
I remember the kick start was in August... and I was quite free so I took up initiative to go through the FS...
I was preparing the test script from August and finished it up early October I think...
For 2 months... I just prepared for the project and doing some adhoc UAT...
It was too relax... haha
When the UAT started, UAT timeline had shorten to 2 weeks time...
It was very rush and I've been OT for the past 2 weeks...
Finally UAT was signed off yesterday...
Although rush... but I don't think my effort were a lot.
We were using existing setup and ride on ATM host for the new function. GL entries also modified from ATM.
When Business user told me it was my hardwork paid off when I said I feel lucky as I did not met any major defects thorough the whole UAT while another team, Elsa is still struggling with ATM Reports.
I dare say nothing... guess silence is gold...
old saying is come out from wise man....
I didn't take other people's credit.
But I will accept if someone want to give me credit....
Although deep in my heart... it is very awkward as I don't think I am contributing a lot. Not sure people give me credit because I am capable in what am I doing or they just say it for fun.

我爱孤独 - 李怡

經歷了父母、夫妻、子女、親友以及種種社會人際聯繫之後,人到老了就無可避免地剩下孤獨的自己。人怕孤獨怕寂寞,人愛熱鬧愛群體。然而,酒逢知己千杯少,話不投機半句多。知己難尋,於是我愛上了孤獨。
孤獨,通常是指一個人的獨處。人是社會動物,人需要在與他人交往中得到快樂,在意向相近的群體中圍爐取暖。孤獨意味寂寞,一般認為孤獨不是快樂的人生。但如果一個人處身在極為美麗的大自然環境中,獨自浮想連翩,面對真正的自己,回顧過去,思想未來,湧起創意,或能有「驀然回首,那人卻在燈火闌珊處」的發現。那就是享受孤獨,而不會感到寂寞。一個人如果陶醉在動人的樂聲中,或閱讀一本非常吸引自己的書,獨自看一部好電影,掀起情感的起伏,那也是在享受孤獨。李白月下獨酌「對影成三人」,當然也是孤獨而不寂寞。相反,如果一個人置身在一大堆與自己格格不入的人群中,聽他們的無聊談話,還不得不敷衍,就會感到厭惡和孤獨。巴爾扎克說:「在各種孤獨中,人最怕精神上的孤獨。」近年我力避參與虛偽人堆的活動,正是不想有精神的孤獨。
有些單身男女,為排遣假日的孤獨,有時會約會一個無趣的人去度假。這未嘗不可。但如果為了逃避孤獨,而隨便找一個自己不怎麼喜歡或不大談得來的人結婚,共同生活,那麼在兩個人一起生活的日子裏,自己一生都會感到精神上的孤獨和寂寞。而這種孤獨是各種孤獨中最可怕的。
老人獨處,還可能有生理上的風險。但我太愛精神上不孤獨了,所以寧選擇生活的孤獨。http://hk.apple.nextmedia.com/supplement/columnist/李怡/art/20151108/19364008
