Last Day @ DOS

Last day at DOS.... 1st thing in the mornign when i reached office, i told my mentor today was my last day. She wasn't very shocked and congratulated me on my new found job and asked me to lunch with her today (1st time since i was there).
Didn't buy any kopi for the past 2 days....and i survived !!!! In fact, today i worked a lil harder and completed more editing and chased a few sets of accounts back in the morning. But i still did surf the net for a while...hehehe.....
My mentor waited for me downstairs during lunch....i guessed she waited for a while coz the clock in the project room is a lil slower.... She insisted on treating me *shyz* We had japanese in a lil small shop....luckily not very expensive... but i juz thought it was really nice of her =) As i mentioned, i am blessed to have a patient and nice mentor ^.^
After lunch, did a bit more data entry to complete my work. Didn't wan to leave things halfway done. And i wonder why....today last day and i had sooo much photostating to do -.-'''''' Goshh....
Spent nearly 2 hrs ++ sorting out my work on hand and to 交待 everything properly. Didn't want to leave creating a mess for my mentors to clear.
Went around office to say my goodbyes to the neccessary ppl and gave them some lil token. I'm not sure if they were really surprised or it juz courtesy.... but their expressions indicated state of surprise and they said i shouldn't have spent the money. Well, it's juz my token of appreciation to them for being patient with all my silly questions in my course of work.
The project room was really quiet today.....quite unusual....usually, it would be filled with laughter and small chit-chats. My fellow DREs wrote me lil notes.... very sweet of them *touched* In fact, during the last 1 hr, i actually felt a lil 不舍得. U all muz be thinking....1 moment say boring....now say 不舍得. Of course it's not the work i 不舍得...i muz be outta my brain if i ever said that. I had my share of fun and laughter and gossips in hte project room with the others even though it was juz a shere 2 months. Tease me if u wish... but i felt a lil 眼浅 (not sure if there's such a word in mandarin..but i know there is in canto), could feel bits of tears at the edge of my eyes.... i felt a bit paiseh la.... like for nothing also tear. I think i camouflaged it with my smiles... hopefully....Shows i'm quite a sentimental person hor....hehe...
Well, i guess all my colleagues dun find me terrible ...lol... had a bit of praises from my manager... hehhe.... I believe i just nid a little bit of time to warm up in front of "new" ppl....
I do hope i meet nice ppl in GT on thurs and i will have a nice and patient mentor as i always have .... i hope lady luck continues to shine on me =)

p/s: i think i'm the only DRE that has ever left so soon....not even 2 months !!! Oh...and my mentor actually told me she was happy for me to go becoz a grad shouldn't be staying as a DRE for long....

A New Beginning...

I realised that i cannot be picky anymore....
Signed the offer letter today with GT as tax assistant. I wished that i could get a job in hte hospitality area.... but i doubt that will come true in the near future.... unless i get a higher degree in hospitality management which i might if i still have the interst and $$$ to do so in the nxt couple of years. REALITY BITES......
Sent in some letters which ain't accounting related fields... but so far none got back to me. Perhaps, this is the route i have to embark on first. My first stepping stone. Pay ain't fantastic... but definitely better than wad i'm getting now. hahaha.... hope everything goes well and that my colleagues will be nice ^.^
So fast....been with DOS for nearly 2 months. But out of all the DREs, i spent the least time there and some were surprised that i'm leaving so fast. Shocked expressions on my supervisor's face... she once told me that my mentor said i was pretty good...LOL ... maybe it's the accounting background... my mentor on leave last friday and today... wonder how she will react with me leaving suddenly... she's a nice lady.... i think so far, with every job, i am really lucky to have nice mentors.... =) oh well... shall miss the slack and the not-s0-slack times... Heard that i ain't the only one leaving.... N is leaving 1 day later than me... haha... she said she wants a break...and no... she hasn't found a job....but she'll be starting on her part-time course... the other guy sitting outside seems to be going too...apparently found a job in an engineering firm....
I guess it's a new beginning for me.... hope i can adapt.... shall see how it goes... praying i get a nice and good and patient mentor....

BORED BORED BORED

So darn bored....lunch time is over.... dun know why suddenly feel so stuffy....

No mood to do work....hahhaa...since when do i have hte mood to work ?? LOL
well, but now really juz dun feel like doing anything.... haihhz.... but haven't reached my target for today :( bad bad bad .....
listening to Madonna's album now.... juz nice....listening to Hung Up now....the lyrics is like sooo coincidently relevant now....esp this part:

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

The clock goes tick tock tick tock....so slowly when i'm sitting here....and it feels even much much slower now...

ARRGHHHZZz.... but TGIF !!!! it's weekend tmr !!! Hmm...skating ?????? or if good weather...head to the pool ?? Feel like a fat ass sitting around here....with the spare tyre around my tummy getting thicker and thicker...

R'eis from popztv emailed me a diet plan...WAHAHHAHHA....i wonder if i will be disciplined to carry it out. But when i looked at it, breakfast and lunch is very similar to wad i'm having....only dinner is drastically different. She said sleep early so wun feel hungry at night....LOL... wonder if i can do it.... :P

RAINY DAYS never say good-byeeee

My title reminds me of the song [I Like Chopin] =p
It's a rainy morning once again.... i just didn't feel like getting outta bed !!!!! The weather is so nice.... it'd be perfect to be enjoying a cup of hot coffee/latte by the window, watching the rain fall and reading a book.
Raining everyday....only yday was a sunny day....
when rainy days never say goodbye, my runny nose says hello to me :( Have been using tissue since my butt landed on the chair in office... sighhhh
My mentor is not around today....hahaha...but doesn't mean can slack much i guess... the stack of cases still staring at me, waiting for me to touch on them. Goshh... why do the cases get more and more complicated -.-'''' so many different funds to account for. ARRGHZZ... Yday, i asked the guy beside me if their cases are as complicated. He was so defensive...thinking htat i said he's job is easy... -.-'''' In fact, i dun see why his job isn't easy when he's got so much time to surf the net for silly stuff. He was hooked on searching for those china official robes. I asked if he had to breakdown every single fund and he told me he juz groups everything together.... -.-'''' no wonder so easy life.... The pay and amt of work really ain't justifiable !!!!
According to my mentor, my team has the worst cases to do...with so many funds to account for when others juz have to take income-expenditure....HAIHHHZZZ.... luckily she understands the complexity and doesn't push for more to be done... she even helps us explain to the management when they ask why so little is done -.-''' so smart the mgt do themselves la....
Accounts accounts accounts....even temp job have to keep looking at financial statements... goshh... i wish my career wun nid me to look at FS !!!! But perhaps before i even say that, i have to see if FKTGT will accept me.... haihhz.... perm job perm job....where are u ???

New Titus Promo pics...

Titled as [Fun without Reasons] and [Beauty without Excuses]
BEautiful titus pictures..... Mi's image in the titus ads are always sooo beautiful....
some Mi fan left a comment in my blog.... maybe u'd like to let me know who u are ???
Anyway, these are some of hte sophisticated pics to oogle at .....wahahahahhaaha

Bad dream.....

I was startled... had the most horrible dream this morning.... I thought i could have a good sleep since i wasn't going to office today. Damn...
It may not be horrible to others, but it seems bad enough to be classified as NIGHTMARE to me. Dun know how it happened, but i dreamt of losing someone in my family again.
Gosh... it was really bad.... i remember how much i cried and how depressing the whole situation was. I dun wanna experience it in reality >.<
I think i didn't really have a good sleep afterall. *sighh*
Anyway, cherish ur family and frens before u lose them.....

Beauty Affair

HAHAHAHA.... this morning went for facial again. Someone else did the facial for me today.... neither angela nor grace... Realised it was the same girl called sherly did facial once for me last time and tried to sell me some facial mask. I thought it was her last day the other time....i wonder how come she 吃回头草. Signed up for more sessions with them too... means $$$$ out again. =(
Mum and dad went for some big birthday lunch which i decided to give a miss. Didn't feel like going for those gatherings.... always ask the same qns... kinda sick of them -.-''''
In the morning, mum asked me if i wanted to go to the hair stylist her colleague recommended.... apparently he's very good. So since i needed a haircut, and this tues have interview....i decided to go. Rather get a haircur than go for the lunch. So i ate lunch on my own and then travelled to braddel for the haircut. It's those HDB kinda shops.... but a lot of ppl patronise that guy !!!! He's like a 1 man show kinda stylist. He has his nieces there to help him wash hair etc.... he does the cutting and styling etc.. He recommended me some 7-step spa treatment for hair which i did. Very comfy to have someone massaging ur head :p Hope it will improve my scalp and hair condition la....haihhz.... grassy hair i have =( HAd a haircut too....hehehe... looks a bit better now. Although it's a bit far for a haircut, but i think i'd go back again the next time ^.^

EXAM AGAIN????

Went for guitar today....hehee.... really enjoy going for lesson though i may not be at the best form when i go every time. Coz the lazy me hardly practices... but i did practice last night !!!!
hahahaha.....
Somehow, Miss Tey and I can always talk abt many things.....lol...but our time is restricted... otherwise i think we can go on and on and on.... Reminds me of the times when i took piano with Miss Tan last time. Remember staying at her house after lesson time to play with her kids or juz to talk with her and other students.... always have a party feel at her house even though sometimes still get a bit of scolding for not finishing my theory hw or for not practising :p
Music lessons are juz so enjoyable !!!
Just recently, Miss Tey talked me into talking exams for guitar !! GOSHHH.... my last music exam was in JC1 when i took my grade8. She said i should take exam and not juz go learn for leisure.....confirm i will practice harder for exams :p hehehe...she knows me very well....hahahah... will only practice for exams =x
Today she mentioned the exam to me again....SO FAST !!! next march !!!!! :s OMG.... i have to go back to old house and dig my old guitar books !!!! Dun know serious abt exam or not also..... :s

OUCHIEEE!!! My feet hurt !!!

Goshh....lunch time now.... dun wanna walk anywhere....not even downstairs....
my feet hurt !!!!!!!!!
New pair of elle slippers....felt comfy when i tried it on.....1st time wearing it today....walked abit...and now my toes hurt !!!!!!!
Gosh...maybe my feet haven got used to it yet.....

Expensive pair....i WILL n MUZ put them on again!!!!!!!

Maybe might update at night...

PART 2 (updated)
Did only 2 editing cases today...the accounts so long and messy....add here add there.... -.-''''
then i went to take another stack of cases to do....OMG ....all no accounts... which meant i spend the last 2 hrs doing calling....
A few of them requested me to speak in chinese -.-'''' OMG.... normal chinese conversation is no problem to me...but i can't translate the financial statements i need to chinese !!!!!! another chicken and duck conversation....haihhz... Realised that some office got no fax machine ....lol
There was this respondent who needed verification as to where i am from before she would fax her financial statements to us -.-''''' WTH....as if i will call up some ulu company to ask for their FS....and wad on earth can i do with them ?????? For goodness sake.....these are all non-profit org !!!!!!!!!! *faintz*

Horrible Day

Woke up feeling so damn tired....

Stole wadever time i could to close my eyes in car

On the train...even though 4 stops... i closed my eyes again

Reached office....WATERY EYES.....
..
Colleagues came....said i look bad today....never seen me this way before....

Felt soooo tired.... couldn't do anything....

Staring sneezing and making "wantons" again .....loads of them btw

The whole day....watery eyes, a nose running in competition.... and the worse thing was i told myself i had to do more cases today. My mentor came in to ask for my weekly report. She kinda implied i did a bit too little ? but she said i was still new to editing....so didn't really matter -.-'''' Gosh...i didn't count those where i had so much difficulty with the confusing accounts that she took my case in the end -.-''''
The other ppl said dun do so fast otherwise they will have high expectations. The most cases was 25 per wk... i think i shall juz hit 20.... still nid to make calls and do data entry...how nice.... How come the rest are soooo slack and yet their mentors dun say anything ?? why i always so suay get mentors who give me so much work to do ??? But honestly, i think i'm more slack compared to last time.... but this is more boring !!!!
Made phone calls today....OMG... i had to speak to an indian man....i could hardly interprate wad he was trying to tell me !!!! BAD BAD BAD !!! chicken and duck talking.....haihhz...
I think it's good training for me hahaha...to make phone calls and learn how to tackle the really difficult respondents.....

The Past Week

Haven't blogged for 1 week....hehehe....

Nothing much happened in office...juz that i received 88 cases of editing plus data entry to do. And amongst these, there are cases with no accounts meaning i have to chase calls. ARRGHHZz...
Well, everyone told me to take my time (temp ppl haha..) and not complete too many in a week otherwise if i can't keep up with my standard, there might be tongues wagging...hmm.... have been pretty relaxed....lol...chatting with Mi on sbs, playing websudoku, IQ teasers, chatting on MSN and IM....hahhahaha

Maybe the only not so good thing that happened this week....a headache that wouldn't go away for 3 consecutive days ....arrghhzz....hurt so much....that i felt like banging in against the wall !!!

Today (sunday), went for yoga and tried body balance class. And i am aching all over now !!!! Geez....more exercise needed man....but i'm glad i still can touch the floor with my hands while being on my feet. LoL I wonder if i can still spilt...hmmz....

Went for KTV session with the office ppl....the temp ppl la....the usual ppl i see in office everyday. Just went so that they wun think that i'm really really AS. hahha....Well, S can sing quite well and he sounds like Jacky Cheung when he sang JAcky's part in the duet. The rest of them....the guys quite average la....not fantastic but still not too bad at times. The other girl... OMG... she is juz singing in her own world...lol.... out of tune, no rythm, no pitch.... I know this is pretty mean of me....but she juz inserted sooooooooo many songs and was singing away and asked for my opinion about her singing .... hmm....i couldn't comment much. I wouldn't dare be so straight and hurt another person's feelings. Moreover, i dun really know that VERY well....

Went to metro after that....hehe...20% discount storewide...but a bit not enough time to look around. Only bought some stuff.... But couldn't get any christmas pressies yet..... NO TIME NO TIME to look for them!!!!! hHnting for christmas pressies always HEADACHE !!!! wonder if we'll be havin' a party this year.......

.............

Hmm...the tension at home is slowly decreasing and i'm thankful for that.

Sniffing and sneezing and blowing my nose since morning today. >.< I hate it when my nose is runny !!!!! And drats....i only had 1 packet+ 2 pieces of tissue in my bag. -.-'''' Made frequent trips to the toilet to clear my nose and this girl sitting outside actually asked me how many times have i been to the toilet .... =.=''''''' Bought 2 packs during lunch time. So freaking expensive. Lousy quality and 30 cents each!!! If i weren't desperate, i would NOT have bought it there. Rather walk to orchard and find a watsons. This made me soooo drowsy and moody the whole day!!! When i reached home, i juz layed on the tiny platform next to my mattress and took a nap !!!! I wanna have a MC !!!! But no work = no money.....*sighhh*

More editing today..... still haven't gotten the hang of it. So many weird accounts. Oh.. and i did my 1st phone calling today. hahahaha....thank god the lady at the other end was nice. =) I was soo nervous that i was rehearsing wad i had to ask a few times b4 i picked up the phone to dial. LOL

Oh anddd... OMG...i can't believe this. I have to fill in a piece of paper stating how much i have done every week from now onwards -.-'''''' Feels so stupid !!!! Goshh...i can't wait to get outta this place ASAP. I dun wanna grow old there !!!!!! HELPPP!!! Found another few jobs to apply for....=) But....does anyone have any idea how to write a good cover letter ???

WHAT ON EARTH IS HAPPENING !??!!??!!?!?

Twice in a week. Never has it happened like this before.
For no reason, i am being shouted at. It spoils my whole entire day. WTF
The previous night was still very very pleasant. Why did it turn out this way today?
I find my tolerance level decreasing.
I won't be suprised if my tolerance level keeps dropping if this keeps happening....

3 yrs in hostel.... what kept me going was the internet, msn-ing, surfing and watching serials on my comp. Hostel...all i had was a room. I stay in my room nearly all the time, or go to someone else's room since i didn't really like patronising the TV lounge esp after taking a shower...

I love staying in my room and perhaps its a habit cultivated over the 3 yrs. I feel like it's the only place that really belongs to me (i know if an argument breaks out, M is bound to say even the room does not belong to me...i've heard this before). i can do anything and everything i like. When the door is closed, it's an entire space to myself.

What is wrong with staying in my room?
What is wrong with closing the door when the aircon is on?
What is wrong with sufing the net ?
What is wrong with chatting with my friends ????
And why dun i have the freedom of choosing what time to sleep and wake up ?!!?!?!!?!??!??!?!

End of data enty ??

Nth day of work....

This morning i hardly did any work....LOL was online in SBS talking to Mi and other fans for quite some time. Until 1 of my team mates came in to call me saying that the supervisor looking for me. Drats...had to leave Mi and fans...
So stupid de...she still doesn't know my name....give instructions also not clear...dun even know wad i was supposed to help her do -.-''' End up i had a dusty chore to do....find old forms ....
Went back to talk to Mi, but too many fans there...so she didn't reply many of my msgs... >.<

Slowly slowly finished the last data entry.... den i went to look for my mentor... no mroe forms to enter....LOL wahahahaha... 3 wks le.... then she gave me a stack of old forms to look thru and she would brief me again on friday on editing of forms....Well, i didn't really understand wad ppl were doing ....hahaha.. den end up surfing net... Somehow, it's a slack day in office.... the guys hardly did any work. Either surfing abt soccer or playing comp chess -.-''' And i dun knwo how, i influenced them into playing sudoku also....hahahhaa.....

HAd a good dinner...tried the 蟹米粉 just outside the street.....very very very nice....hahaha... just a bit expensive :p the fresh scallop was ok only la...d vege also so-so only....coz a bit saltish.... Loved the crabs....haven eaten for such a long time !!!! yum yum yum yum yuummmmyyy ~~~~

Thoughts...

Something happened early morning which totally pissed me off becoz i was accused again. Someone scolding(definitely heard this) and swearing and cursing (not too sure though) at me. I really hate being accused. If it indeed happened, i will admit it. This time such a thing DID NOT occur. There is no talking so far...and i have not attempted and do not intend to clarify anything as long as i know my conscience is clear. DAMN IT !!!!

Went for my 1st yoga session today @ Cali Fitness (Bugis)....gosh the unstretched body of mine... felt stiff.... but i was relieved i could still do decent stretching and not make a fool of myself. I know i have so much fats and i do not nid anyone to keep pointing that out to me. I do not nid reminders... -.-'''' I will do something about them.
