tuned in;
finally i do have some time to spare to blog an entry.
you might ask, what have i been busy with ever since exams were over? well, my answer to that is work, work and perhaps some play?
well, i was looking intensively for a job during the first week of holidays. i even went with huiling to recruit express in hopes to get job opportunities faster. however, to my utmost dismay, they failed to contact either of us after like an entire week and still pending. pathetic. thank goodness i did not plain rely on an agency to get myself a job and kept looking on my own.
with that, i actually managed to get myself a job successful through recruit of the straits times. the newspapers never fails. (: so, i`m actually working at driasia - Disaster Recovery Institute of Asia. doing data entry currently and perhaps telemarketing when fidelia (the program executive cum my in-charge) thinks i`m ready. i was well, slightly disappointed when she told me that she could only give me $5.50 per hour due to my lack of experience in these fields, but i accepted the offer to go try out the job last thursday. so then, last thursday was my first day of work in an office. prim and proper for once. not one of those jobs that i`m running around, doing hard core chores and related. well, kinda new and fresh so i guess the job isn`t bad so far. met several new colleagues including fidelia, sek siong, rahim, lily, jenny, simon and gilfred. and the boss dr. goh. they`re all nice people to work with. thank god. oh yeah, and another new girl joyce that joined us today. i guess everything`s been cool, just that i feel alil too young to be in an office (i`m not trying to be rude or anything) and i can`t be as like hyper as per normal. so yeah, kinda weird. and yeah, the good news at the end of today was that i`m actually getting $6 per hour after fidelia have seen my performance for the past 3 days and was kinda pleased with that. so i`m a happy girl.
anyway, even though i`ve found myself another job, i`m definitely still with my secret garden. my plan this month is to make money. so, weekdays reserved for driasia and weekends for mysg. so that even if i do have to leave driasia when my school reopens, i still have mysg. okay, i know that`s kinda bad but since mysg can`t give us all the schedule that i can give, i`ll just look for alternatives to keep myself alive and kicking. but all`s been cool so far. so yeah.
went to esplanade on friday with seance without adel and we took tonnes of hilarious photos. it wasn`t all that fantastic food for dinner but well, enjoyed everything with you guys all the same. ((: we shall do that again soon. let`s set another day to head out again! and let`s find new places to go instead of having to like be always with the rest of the singapore crowd. and yeah, i`m proud to be the last seventeen year old around now. haaaa. blahx.
//speaking of which, i think this holidays for me would be more relaxing despite the fact that i`m having 2 jobs concurrently. why? because like i have my week nights free and the work at driasia is pretty managable. it`s not hard to accustom to them at all. besides, i have more room to breathe now. i feel at ease recently, i don`t know why. although i know it could all be much much better but at least there is some form of improvement. my mood weren`t at its best maybe like a few weeks back, but it seems like the weather have cleared up abit.
and i`m glad for that. really. i hope everything`s going to get better. no doubt it was a fulfilling part of my life to look back at. kids do grow up you know, this could just be my turn that`s all.
