in a few hours time, i'll be on d plane to vietnam for job attachment. and ive yet to finish packing. neither did i come up with a list to bring. i biscally dumped everything in.hahs. i wonder how it would be like sharing room with the other girl. i don't think we are quite of d same frequency and being together for d past week or so hasn't helped much. the last two times i travelled without my family, in both times, i shared room with my good friends. once, shurong and then peirong so had lotsa fun. and i wonder how much food i'll eat there. my colleague, raymond, warned that in vietnam they put something weird in every dish. and even my daddy warns me abt. the food and he takes quite about anything.


hahs. i jus got my pay cheque. my first ever. on d 23rd. yeass. but i feel kinda bu she to leave d people in the office. ive kinda used to everyone and everything already. and had to keep d tears from falling when i hugged bren. and i feel really happy giving them d thankew cards. though i made them last min. , stay up till 4 plus am to do and they were kinda kuku, i feel better..cus they've really allowed me to gain much.


i regret to announce that my beloved zen micro had decided to spoil just days before my trip. at first i thought it was d earphones that are spoilt and even went all d way to sim lim square to get good price for earphones. (i bargained down 14 bucks. hehs) ken was like refusing to admit that he knows this auntie i think. hahas.oh. BUT.no. it is d whole player that is spoilt so i wasted money on d earphones. d creative people got me a replacement but the prob. is my 600 plus songs are all gone. and it's not furnie lahhs. i'll take ages to upload all back. even so, many of d songs are not in my comp anymore.haiss.


ANWS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY dear jokie! :) sorry i can't make it for ur celebration today! hoped u guys had fun. thankew esthee for telling me :) we mus meet up again soon yahhs.

i want you in my arms ;

nyahas. i think am addicted to working. it's not really fun squeezing yourself during rush hours and staring at d computer screen for hours or rushing documents but when u're used to it, i guess it gets quite okes. and you get a great feeling after finishing a task or thinking that u are earning something every hour. plus. i have great colleagues. i really love d people in d office. actually, am closer to them than the girl on d same attachment as me.


wednesday we had a company event because one of d bosses, henry ( of the other office) is going overseas and we shall not be seeing him till next year. so there's this event for him to wish d company all d best for next year and merry christmas. hahs. and he's this really charismatic mixed blood with a very nice accent. nyahas. anws. during d event i drank too much champagne. so d people of both offices kept putting their attention on me. so paisehhs. i tried to convince them that my blood jus flow especially well and i turn red easily but to no avail. this michael person kept saying i'll start singing christmas carols soon. and he went 'why didn't i do that too' when i took a nice little photo with d boss. but i wasn't that bad lahhs. after realising i wasn't an excellent drinker after going ken's house, i trained myself. and this time, i didn't feel sleepy! really! i managed to do another 2 purchase orders after that when we went back to d office. but i did get a headache latas for staring at d comp for too long and facing endless numbers.hahs.


yesterday the team leader asked me to redo the other girl's invoices and raising order proposals because she wasn't pleased with them.. and the girl left early that day for some science project so she didn't know. i feel so bad. after work i went home with bren and learned lots from her. and now im so close to my colleagues i don think i can bear to leave them so soon. i'll rather stare at d computer in d office. *sobs.


ANWS. i watched harry potter today! hahs. i didn't know tix during weekends is so freaking expensive i mean i know it's expensive dat's why ive never gone during weekends but not to dis extent bahhs. it's like 9.50? normal tix is like 6.50 at cathay where prices aren't raised. plus online booking fee 1 buck it's like 10 bucks for a tix. wahhs. cinemas earn alot huhhs. luckily is not i pay or i just feel so bu gan yuan to pay so much for a tix. so. i think d movie is really nice though. and it's really QUITE scary. kess. i know some people think it's not but i am a rather faint-hearted can.. hahs. and during the movie it was really kuku cus this mother decided to bring her infant in to watch d goblet of fire and d baby was crying and crying through d movie. and everyone was like 'SHHHHHH' but d baby still kept crying. especially at the most crucial times like when voldemort appears. hahs. but i really pity d baby though. i myself cringed at some parts.. d baby must have been really scared.and i saw d bryan wong and kym ng filming some show. hahs.

happy birthday otosan ken :)

for today and yesterday i had a taste of wad working life would be like and im not loving it as much as i expected to.

on the first day, i was being explained how d company works and learnt how to check invoices.
then i went for a business meeting with d boss to meet clients over lunch at intercontinental and our lunch consists of lobster salad, abalone and scallops soup with genrous servings of mushrooms, crabs and prawns, grilled cod fish decorated with egg white, scallops and asparagus fried rice and dessert. and each dish was served in nicely decorated plates and are all inidividual servings. i think ive never eaten a more expensive lunch. anws. with d boss sitting beside me and the clients directly opposite me,i think i put on a very good show. d boss says mus be at ease so that d clients will trust you. and so, i TRIED to be all lady-like and at d same time TRIED to be at ease. and i laughed heartily whenever a joke was said. and smiled my sweetest whenever i should. and kept my mouth shut whenever i can. but d clients started posing questions at me. (instead of d other girl on attachment with me as well) think it's beacuse im d one sitting near to them. but i learnt alot from them..so their questions help me to learn i guess. d other girl is a vegetarian..so she has her own individual servings of vegetarian food while we have our seafood one. hahas. hers looks really yummy cus as my close frens would know, i don't really eat seafood. d boss did ask if we had any food preferences but i didn't know it's gona be so seafoody and i can take SOME seafood but i think ive never eaten so much seafood in a day. so i learnt to appreaciate seafood or look as if i am and at d same time pace my eating with the clients. i cannot eat while they talk as i have to be smiling but when i look they would have eaten a huge portion without me knowing. thats bad because it's individual serving and when d next dish comes i cant be d only wan still eating my own previous dish. hmms. and d girl seems not really with us. and when i dropped my handphone( in between her and d empty seat) she didn't help me pick up..so sadds. but i learnt alot during d meeting and am really thankful for d boss's genrosity. after checking more documents, we left for d psa warehouse and ive never seen so much liquor and tobacco in my life.


today, i learnt to check more important documents and they seem to trust me more now, giving me d most recent documents to check. in the morning i alloacted testers to d different dfs locations in vietnam.and i learnt to raise proposal. d general manager gives me d quantity of stocks she wants and i am supposed to type it in excel to be raised to d vendors. after seeing hundreds and hundreds of branded names, i nearly fainted. thousands of code numbers, quantity, names. and somwhere must separate different goods, for example, perfume and cosmestics separate and separate d different locations also mus separate. first i was given one stack to deal with but before i hardly even started, the general manager finish writing d quatity for another pile and gave it to me. i nearly died. rasing proposal is scary. typing d wrong quatity is scary. and d other attachment girl told me she was playing minesweeper. wahhs. is dis unfair or wadds. looking at thousands and thousands and thousands of numbers on d computer after hours and hours is really no fun.


but, i must say, d office is really nice to us. d people in it are nice generally. what made me laugh today---d team leader was saying ' bon-gag-rri jin tian hui lai' and d whole day she was talking abt this 'bon-gag-rri' and i thought it was a new indian man coming. towards d end of d day, however, i found out she was talking about d bvlgari stocks arriving. ahass.


my desk is facing d gm ( she can only see me and d team leader from her room), behind d team leader and d only girl of d row horizontally. i love my desk cus its against d wall so i seemed to have my own space with a lcd screen comp. at first, d both of us were under d team leader but now d other girl is being assigned to another guy so we sort of work separately. but its not really so bad. hahss. ohh..and i love d nice clean toilets. :) ahass.


and i lied to myself over and over again. but whatever u do, did , say or said always mean so much to me. i could never understand....and you would never understand.

i want you in my arms ;

yeas. went out with ness, yijun and rambu today. tam died in her sleep (as quoted from yijun) and did not come. supposed to buy ken's prezie but ended up with nothing. hahs. but rambu bought a nice pair of shoes and yijun got a nice charm bracelet. and we gave ness her HAVANNIAS. hahs. i want a pair too. nyahahas.


saw ben tay and some ex-cchms girls. and they saw d whole bunch of ny dragon boat guys. all very reddd an super tanned. and we decided to walk all d way to esplanade and took some photos and played lame games for everyone there to watch us then we decided to walk all d way to raffles mrt station. there were SO MANY couples at d riverside. young and old. i wonder why d govt keeps asking ppl to get married and have babies. they seemed happy enough. but many of them seemed displeased at our noisiness when we were zi-lianing in front of d camera. think they never had such fun before and were jearouss. HAHS.


my job attachment at d dfs company starts on monday. wonder how everything would be like. am supposed to know how to use microsoft excel but i really don't know how. ahass.

ahas. pee-double-you wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. i mean..d whole thingy. towards d end..d group of us became quite kuku and even came up with a kuku skit :)

so. today was ohhpee. and i think d group of us was great! yeass! :) except that i answered my question for like 10 secs? hahs. that besides d point, i think we were louder, better, clearer :) hahs. came to school today lugging 3 big bags of macs breakfast dabaoss. i felt so kuku cus so many ppl were staring at me..on d bus. at d bustops and in school..including issac and his group. ahas. and i wanted to seek help from zhu and ivan but they were both busy so ivan went 'u can do it!' to which i said ' go and die!' hahas.


anws. i want to thankew all for everything :).really. i think our group is really quite nice. after hearing weixian's plight i think am really fortunate. and..im sorry for being late today. yups. i waited quite long for d food and lata for 38. but i bought da food for u all under d hot HOT sun! anws. luckily we decided to dabaoss huhs. we hardly had time to eat..hahs. but i had my hotcakes+muffin+tea. yumyumms.

after ohh-pee i met up wif krys and we sat down at mos for a drink . and after a while we started looking at d classified section and we saw an advertisement for california fitness receiptionist and a walk-in interview for today. but after we went all d way to bugis, d person told us there's no interview today cus d manager is not around .anws. i've decided i dunwan to work there cus d receiptionists all look so mature and their make-up looks as if 2hrs of removing won't be enough. who will pay for my huge use of make-up??! but while we were looking for d fitness centre smth furneh happened. when d both of us were at d ground floor i was deciding and krys was like 'just ask lahhs' but i thought the place feels intimidating so i was pacing around. and there was dis guy in california clothes pacing around outside with me. so i decided to walk away towards seiyu and krys was behind shouting 'where you going?' and i just thought i hate interviews so i need time to think. and i turned around to talk to krys and saw d guy was following us towards seiyu so i shouted instead ' can d guy stop following us?!' and he stopped short in his steps. and d three of us was standing there blocking d passageway. and then i felt bad so i walked towards d guy. and he asked me ' do you want to go to d gym?' i looked down at my full school uniform, very bemused. shook my head and said 'no.'


i jus got d details for my job attachment from mrs goh today and found out that i have a daily allowance of 50 bucks. not badds. i thought i won't get a single cent cus it's job shadowing and it's supposed to be some learning thing.but am supposed to start work today but didn't go cus of ohhpee. d boss must be thinking i am one lazy girl.hahs.


i thankew you tj175. *huggs*
