New Year

The year is coming to an end. It was my last working day this year. Spending the last working day in warehouse, just like the last year. It was an enjoyable day last year. This time? It was just ok.

Whatever it is, i'm glad i took a leave for almost a week the following week. It's good to have a break, to leave everything behind before a brand new start.

Bringing forward my wish list, hoping for a great new year ahead and wondering what lies in front for me..if only i could tell the future...i wonder..

Heard this song on my way to work today. Nice Christmas song from Britney.



  

Santa that's my only wish this year...

Time flies

It is a lucky day for the new girl. There was no noise pollution for the whole day. No scoldings, no loud booming voices every now and then. Many are on leave as well. Peaceful day.

Memories of my first working day came flashing back as i talked to my new partner. A sweet young girl, almost the same height and weight as i am. Well, thinner, thinner than the already so underweight me. A nice person to chat with. As we chatted along, i couldnt help but keep thinking what is her first impression of this company, the boss, will she turn out to like this company in the  near future, what is her opinion of this and that after couples of weeks...

It was 13th June, Monday, when i first entered this company. I was full of anticipation, excitement, passion and positive spirit when i came in for the first-day-at-work.

My manager brought me to my seat, and started to nag why my place isnt ready for me, with paper bags on the table,no computer prepared for me etc..

Wearing a one-peace grey colour dress, which used to be her favourite dress, my partner smiled warmly while she greeted me. She then passed all the notes that she has for me to read as my boss was too busy to attend to me. We started off with the few typical get-to-know-each-other questions and never did we expect that we are just staying across the road from each other! what a coincidence!
We were so happily saying that we can car pool and save money but ironically, we  never did so til the next year when the parking fees increased. ha!

It was just early 9am in the morning. I sat there looking around, at the colleagues surrounding me, not knowing what to do besides reading those notes. Everyone was so busy, some are so focused on their computer, some busy on the phone, some walked around, carrying things..There were quite a lot of people there, voices loud and soft, low and high, noises here and there, a very different environment compared to my previous company. Then there was this women shouting at the HR, scoldings, anger heating up. There was this noisy printing machine with the 'eek eek eek..' sound every time the SOP team print the invoices or the sort. And then i saw my partner standing there, being scolded by the boss. Wow..what a scene on the first day. It was a totally different environment from where i have been and i wondered is it just that day, or it's how it will be like the following days to come.

''what do you think of this company?" asked my partner during our lunch. Well, not knowing if she loves this company, i was trying to be neutral, saying that it was just a bit weird, very different from my previous company that i still need time to adapt.

"weird? you stil used such a mild word as weird? It was totally like a market! It was ......" Exclaimed my partner as she go ahead to tell us how she feel of the company and others. I couldnt recall exactly what she said next, but it was obvious that she didnt like the company. So do i, on the first day. However, i still wanted to keep neutral and give it a few more days before i make my judgement of the company.

As i drove home on my first Friday with this company, tears rolled in my eyes. It was totally out of my expectation. All the excitement was gone. It wasnt what i  wanted it to be. Fri was supposed to be a happy day but my heart was screaming. The first week, we could just get scolded or nagged for more than an hour, going home around 7pm everyday. what's going on here? what's wrong with everything?

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

This new girl is lucky on her first day. The office was actually quite most of the time. At 5.30pm, i asked her to go home as there wasnt anything for her to do on the first day. Tomorrow, it's a holiday. The days that follow, i'm sure it will be a smooth one. Guess that her first week will be a smooth one, and that will make her stay, longer than anyone would have guessed.

In a wink of an eye,

Without realising it,

It's been more than a year i'm here

Time flies...

Wonder how long will i stay on

what's more to come

what lies ahead

a future yet to be unfold...

everyday it rain

It's the end of the year. It's the raining season. It's the I'm-loving-it nice weather for sleeping. Nevertheless, it does bring inconvenience for those who are outdoor. 

It's been raining cats & dogs every single day recently. Yesterday, the sun has unexpectedly out beat the rain. As i arrived the badminton court, I was thinking what a lucky day it didnt rain today & it doesnt look like it's gonna rain too. Compared to the previous week, the rain was real heavy that we just kept playing, buying time waiting for it to subside and there was only one umbrella among all of us there.

Well, it did rain, heavily, in the midst of the game. I kept looking at my watch at 8 something, hoping the rain will subside even when i know it basically wouldnt stop for the whole night. Nobody make a move as the sky was still shedding much tears and none of us brought an umbrella!

By 9pm, i couldnt wait any longer. I ran to my car under the rain and took the umbrella in my car for my colleague. The rain has actually subsided a little. No matter how heavy is the rain, I will still do the same thing. I'm not afraid of falling sick because of the rain, my friend. I wouldnt fall sick because of that, but my stomach will, if i still couldnt feed it. Absurd but true :D

Bruno Mars was singing:

There'll be no sunlight if i loose you baby

There'll be no clear skies if i loose you baby....

If you walk away, everyday it will rain, rain rain...

Wonder who walked away from Bruno lol

dream job

Leaving home around 8 in the morning
A 15-20 min journey is just nice
reaching office just on time
Kicking start my day
With a work load not so heavy
And some favourite songs keeping me company
A job everyone envy

From being annoyed to getting used to..
To the noise pollution every now and then..
Oblivious to the surrounding
Sink in the little cubicle of mine
Typing, reading, calculating, calling...
Staring at the clock every now and then
Before I can finally shout
TGI 5.30pm!

Going back sharp on time
A time everybody envy
Salesman sweating for the sales
While I just enjoy the incentives
Without having to sweat for it
A pay not so bad, that everyone envy

Looks like I have the greatest job
A job everyone envy
A job everyone dream of
Oh Yea

But how much do you know
What I've learned, what I've gained, what I've been through
A work of one year
Equals a work of one month
All of the time
I just smile, and tell the whole world I'm fine
While deep down, when no one can hear me
I feel like crying bout it

There's no point staying
When my heart is not in it
Everyday I'm praying
For the one job that I've been wanting
The job that i desired
I'm still waiting for you
I'm not giving up on you
If there’s one spark of hope left in my grasp
I’ll hold it with both hands

I still believe
Oh Yeah   :D

The Best Of Me

Finally got myself Nicholas Sparks' book. My very first Nicholas Sparks' book --> The Best of Me

Cant believe this author is introduced by my bro, the bro who didnt read books. Yeah he didnt read, but he watch.

Most of his stories are being made into movies. His very famous A Walk To Remember, The Notebook, are highly recommended by my bro & i fell in love with his unique stories after this 2 movies. 

I've watched most of his movies (Night in Rodante, Message in the Bottle, The Last Song, etc) and was wondering does reading his books give the same feeling & effect as those being made into movies. So here i am, got myself his latest book from the recent book fest.

My most anticipated story book of the year! : )

Hope it's a nice one..

It's been a while...

Almost forgotten bout my blog here.. it's been more than half a year since i last wrote something.. A proof of my laziness huh!

Blogger has a new look. All the designs, layout has changed. It's a more upgraded and more convenient layout. Things change within this half a year, making me wonder what have I done all this while? Even blogger have changed for better but me? I'm still here, nothing much has changed (oh yeah, except my new smart phone hehe)

Well, gonna make a move.
I want it ; I believe it!

Oh Yeah!
