My Favourite Days of the Week - Weekend!

I never knew I love Weekends - that much. However, ever since I started work - weekends happened to be the best days of my life! Working life is terrible - makes you craves and yearn for schooling days. There were days whereby I nearly cried out of sheer frustration. Now I knew for sure, I am not cut out for Business Admin stuff .... My department being Doc_Control, short for documentation control. The department itself is alright, its' the work that comes along that's irritating. Inputing Data into the System would be fine if there's no error message or error in the forms itself submitted by the people from another department. Calling them up and notifying them of the mistakes or errors was a 'must' - since the data obviously must be updated into the system. When they're not sure why there's such a setting with the data-record, they find it a hassle as they would have to double check and confirm with their colleague before getting back to us. For us...

illusionary stress ...

Was it just me ? I don't know ... I've been working for 17 days now, am counting down to the day whereby my contract with Recruitexpress will end ... It's not that I detest my job scope or anything, the job itself - and the duties that comes along with it, is fine. It's just the people working there - okay, not that I actually interact with the majority of them. Merly is fine, I supposed. Chris - is alright, as long as he don't pissed me off ... cause' sometimes he can be a little irritating. doesn't help that his voice sound like a female. Tamil is okay - but her boss, always wanna complain this and that - kind of annoying. Cause; the moment complaints comes in - scoldings would be everywhere ... so far, I haven't kena yet ... Alice - on the other hand, don't know leh ... I'm kinda scared to approach her - she seemed to be in bad mood all the time ... Talk to her only, I get a little *irk* also. Usually when she's around - I felt stress...

Weekend Finally ...

Never knew I loved weekends this /much!/ ... Woke up at 9 this morning, which was really fantastic. I've been waking up at 6 for the past few days, due to work ... and waking up late, was considered a luxuary ... Anyway, watched lucky stars 21 and naruto 27 this morning, now loading Kenichi ... Later I would be mopping the floor, and then rest a bit ... Tomorrow, I'll be watching animes I think ... and I missed talking to XinHui ... (T.T) I have a feeling that Monday, I would be swamped with work load. ... I send lots of stuff out for routing approval, and I have a feeling that - Monday, I would be filing and printing, issuing things a lot ... *bleh* I'm counting down the days to when my contract will ends, perhaps, I should bring in a desktop calender to strike off each day, I'd been working ? Well ... I'll go in search of the calender later. Seeya! XD Oh and drop me a message if you had the time/date fixed - for any of our group members' birthday celebrati...

Finally have time for rest & animes ...

Right, the first weekend after I started working for a temporary full time job. Yesterday, I managed to finish my work by 17.35, so ... I get to leave early. Well, at least earlier than my first day at work. The last 2 hrs or so of my work time yesterday was spend 'boxing' - for the 2004/2005/2006 (first six months) documents, and labeling them, accordingly. Went to lunch with Christ and Merly - at the canteen situated opposite of the company building. After lunch, Merly taught me how to use the Agile programme, and that's probably what I will be learning next week as well. Anyway, work aside - my mother wanted me to pay her back the amount of money she used for my transportation when my salary was credited into my bank account. Also I think the food expenses as well , thankfully - excluding saturday. Right, and I would need to pay her back the money for the PC formatting/CD writer ... and office softwares - the other time ... also for my new clothes and shoes for work....

First day of office work ...

First, I'm 3 minutes late, as I had trouble finding the exact location of the company. Should I say a 'Plant' instead ? My department office was situated in the factory itself, and its' temperature was more of the AOA room back in ITE. In fact, the whole place resembled an ITE itself. Only, the canteen was situated on the 4th level. There's a gym, but only perm staff could access for it require their ID card. Mine's a temporary staff ID card, so it was one without 'code'. Anyway, I spend the whole day of work doing stamping of documents, sorting and filing. Photocopying and Scanning as well, mainly paperwork. The only data entry I did today, was to update the company stuff into their system, and their customer documents stuff. For I still had no access to my account yet, I had to work using the public PC station today. And I certainly hoped that the phone on my desk will not ring at all ... since I had no idea how to answer their call, as it wa...

Interview at RecruitExpress ...

Today, I went over to Recruit Express at Jurong JTC Summit. I met up with Eve, and the interview was alright ... the atmosphere was rather laid-back and comforting ... Which, I should thanked my lucky stars ... Anyway, she said that she would inform me if I'm shortlisted for any of the job positions which she had submitted for me ... probably within these two days... I hoped that I could get the NTU job ... for that sounds more appealing than the positions located at Pandan Rd. .. *Sigh* Will update more, if the position is confirmed.

Temp Job Hunting ...

Yes, I am on a temp job hunt ... *bleh* Went to the extend of buying newspaper and checking out online job ads. Well, I even submit my resume to sites such as 'Singapore jobs online' ... Well, that and ... I uploaded my resume to the recruit express site as well ... *wonder if I can get some response from there* If not, my last resort was to work for Mcdonalds or Mos burgers ... probably Mcdonalds ... =_=();; Well, that's the last resort though ... since this kind of job had low pay ... *Argh!* Well, I think that's all for now ... going off ...

Bored

Had no idea how to get around to the task of looking for temp jobs ... *bleh* Ended up seeking help from cousin and XH, but in all honestly - I am not holding onto any hopes or whatsoever. =_=();; The sheer idea of wanting to look for a temp job, was simply for the sake of earning some extra money for spending, and to pass my time. Secondly, I wanted to try out the office environment... Until now, I've never tried working in an office environment before ... Also, probably because I wanted to gain some practical and working experience. Aside from my experience of working in fast food restaurant, private tutor and sales assistant in the comic rental shop. Honestly, I had no idea how to write a formal and proper job application letter till' now ... and my resume was not really all glory and wonderful to look at. *sigh*

Recent Happenings

Alright, I'm left with pathetically 4 dollars from my monthly trip to Orchard, since Monday ... Bleh ... Defintely sucks to be broke... Anyway, I've spend the past few days watching animes on youtube and crunchyroll. I am contemplating if I should make use of the veoh account -_-();; cause' it have a damn slow loading speed. Either case, I've finished watching the whole of 14 episodes of Suzumiyah Haruhi on Youtube, and catch up with the Kenichi series until 43 ... am waiting for the next few episodes to be aired and uploaded. Right, In the meantime, I am watching Suzuka ... I'm done with the first two episodes and would progress on to more episodes tomorrow. In the meantime, I am looking through online Singapore jobs search website to see if there's any job offers which catches my attention. Speaking of which, Xinhui took up a temp job offer at her mother's working place with the UPS company ... Working as a Data Entry clerk over at their Finance and Acco...

I still owe Evelyn $13 from K-box ... bleh :( Owe Xinhui $6 ... but this amount, I can pay back by 13 August ... when we meet up. =_=();; Pathetic sia ... no money liao, never mind ...

Thank god, I get Shinn Asuka instead of Meer !!! Wahahahaha .... Still busy watching animes around on crunchyroll ... XD Right, I have yet to see if you guys are busy with anything XDDD

Another morning entry...

Yesterday, got back the marks for the AOA CA1. I managed to score 93 for the part 1 of the Microsoft Word Exam - this coming thursday, which is tomorrow - will be the part 2. I wonder, if I could do that well, for this upcoming test. Anyway, the marketing CA marks was out ... the one that we sat for on last friday. I only scored 34/50... which inevitably translated to scoring a 68/100. Very lucky that I did not failed the test, since I did not studied well enough.... Even the teacher asked if I studied for the test... However, it's not that I do not want to study... its' just that the information refused to cooperate with my brain and get itself settled within. Moreover, I don't really understand the concept well in English. However, there was no way anyone could have translated the concept to me in Chinese - since my teacher's chinese standard was worst than mine... I think. Well, it's good enough that I managed to pass. Shall just have to work harder, next tim...

A 'Nice' Morning Update

One week into the start of a new term, got back the results for POM project part 1 ... To think we actually scored 8 out of 10 marks, was still rather unbelievable for me ... All we did was to make up stories and crap sentences , and viola ! such high marks. Anyway, yesterday had our PoM CA... No confidence in scoring well, it would be a miracle itself to make it through the whole paper. The reality of graduation impending is setting in, another 3 more months - we will have to bade one another farewell. The feelings of mixture of sadness, and happiness mingles in between. Recently, I've been working on Chinese fics for La Corda D'oro... I had already written until Chapter 23... I wonder how long the fic will take to finish, I'm determined to finish the fic -- this time around. Usually, when I wrote chinese fic ... I had a tendency not to finish them... but this time around, I really want to finish it. So I am working hard to achieve it. Anyway, the internet speed was sti...

school started again...

school starts yesterday, spend nearly 15 bucks on classical music CD... Value pack, 3CD selling at price of 1... so I went ahead and bought it, after considering the option for 24 hrs. Cause'; I really wanted the 'Ave Maria' and 'Morning Mood' ... Anyway, yesterday - in school;during lesson time; I kept my receiver channel on at symphony 92.4 fm... XDDD ^_^ Managed to stay awake the whole while, during POM... Mr. Kamaruddin is correct. Classical music can help one to study better ^_^ Got back POM project part 1, scored 8/10 marks... ^^;; Had not started on Part 2 yet,since this week we were still in holiday mood. Probably will not get much work done, either way. so probably, will officially start work on next week. Friend move house liao, now living in terrace house at phoenix garden.

since someone mention about me not updating...

well, the x'mas gathering at hina's house was 'fun' in a way... especially when suisei went to hide into her cabinet and she had no idea... XD Anyway, recently...I'm obsessed with La Corda D'oro... Primo Passo... I actually went to download the oped both full and karaoke version...and since earlier on, after the reformatting of my PC... my window media player failed to play any mp3 files... I ended up going online to download the winamp that was meant specifically for playing mp3 files. So, I went online and try to find the manga to read... eventually, I ended up joining the clozone community since the manga chapters was not open to public viewing... thus, i spend the past two days playing with my clozone blog. it's a chinese site... so, I won't bother with the link. anyway, after which I join another two chinese forum which had specific board dedicated to the la corda d'oro section... I had plenty of fun, and surprisingly my ID account at the anime...

Latest desires...

Well, yeah... my desires and wants/needs list kept on getting longer... -_-();; Anyway, XH had the intention to set her Motorola V3 as a spare phone and use her Sony Ericsson Z520i as her main phone. Evelyn had 2 sony ericsson phone and Misha now had 1.... I only had a Samsung and Nokia phone -_-();; and my Nokia spare phone was without bluetooth some more.... *wails* I don't care, I am so going to go and check out some of the 2nd hand sony ericson phones pricing and buy one for myself... within the next 2-3 months, hopefully 2 months... but it's kind of impossible. Since, I had to pay for the following/buy in the following few weeks. -_-();; 1. 'Dearboys Vcds from JAC' 2. M1 Top-up card 3. Creative Earpiece... cause' I lost a portion of the current one which belongs to my brother and he threw a fit, so I promise I will buy him a new set. 4. Mangas -_-();; at least 17 bucks will go here. 5. Comic Connection Membership Renewal -__-();; Expired in 2007 Jan... So, no...

She go out with her mother for shopping while I go Takashimaya buy bread then go home. Took bus 700 to Bukit Panjang -- change to bus 187 to go home. 3. I know I a little repeative and naggy today, kept on reminding XH to sms me when she's home so that I can call... but I very bored ... so I kept on sms-ing her... but unless I asked questions, otherwise -- she never reply one T.T So sorry XH, I flood your sms... and ur phone should be ringing every ten minutes or so ^^;; Hope I did not bother you too much ^^;; 4.

Finally...

Apparently, my blog layout get a new look again. Special thanks going out to Evelyn for helping me edit the blog code... ^_^ Anyway, I had to thank Evelyn again for helping me to reformat my PC. Finally, its' working well again. Although, I lose quite a lot of data in the process. Nonetheless, I'm grateful... and thankfully, I had the insight to backup my gundam seed/destiny fanfics... so I don't have to rewrite those again Phew~ else, I may be suffering from serious brain dead business. =_=;; That aside, I still had plenty of fics that I had yet to write and do... I'm so dead... Nevermind, at least my Gundam Seed/Destiny fics were fine... those were my lifeline XD ^^;; Well... I'm off to youtube to catch up with my animes watching XD

blog layout changed

I changed my blog layout yesterday, but forgot to credit... -_-();; I took the code from 'createblog.com', and further modified it. The original layout was done by 'torngemini'. Best view in Mozilla Firefox, (remember to refresh...) if the sidebar and main content overlapped one another.
