Lights on Me

Today is my fifth day at work. Things start to make sense, job scope is much clearer now, and well, I'm dwelling quite well with my colleagues. Just sometimes its hard to communicate coz I'm a lousy hokkien speaker. It's a cosy company to be exact, and everyone seems to be busy all the time. No one has extra time to do other stuffs, but it's a good thing eh? It means our company are progressing and expanding and we are getting more sales. Maybe, but we do have much more things to learn. Not only me but the company as well. To be the major player in the market, we have to be more efficient and customer friendly. It sounds easy but hell no! All this experience is new to me. Really new. Ahead of coming to work here, I was worrying whether I will be able to perform or not. But, well my colleagues are not bad. They shared, they teach, they guide. I have a wonderful immediate boss now. But well, it's still too early to tell how it will be later on. Anyway, life has been ...

Phew! It was an exciting day to be say in comparison to the previous Fridays I have. A call from a private university which I've sent my resume weeks earlier has finally replied, and offered me an interview. The first reaction was "WHAT?!! Are you sure?". It was hysterical as I dreamed bout a job like this for ages. I told the caller to give me 30 minutes to reply. Somehow, I managed to call Sandz, Mum and Sylvia for consultation. I agree to go for the interview. Then, suddenly it hit me, hey, I will still be new on the job. Can I actually ask for a leave on the 3rd day of my new job? That would be ugly on me. Sigh.. frustration and indecisiveness was all over mind. What the hell was I thinking? What if I didn't get the job? I chatted with a few friends more to ask for their opinion. JP replied me truthfully, does the "U" have good reputation for the faculty? Or better still, does the "U" actually have good reputation? Hmm... yeah. I didn't thi...

Got a call today, from my future boss. Yay! I'm starting a job next Monday. Well, sales coordinator doesn't really ring a bell in my career plans. But well, it's a stepping stone. Working world, here I come again!

" What makes a woman beautiful? For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; for a slim figure, share your food with the hungry; for beautiful hair, let a child run their hands through it; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone." -Audrey Hepburn I love this quote from Audrey Hepburn. Women are beautiful in many ways, rather than being good looking alone. Men however finds it difficult to see women in these ways.

I got myself DVD player yesterday. Not a branded one, but good enough to play my whole collection. And as a bonus, it actually plays DivX format! That means all my downloaded CSIs, The Simpsons, and House can be watch on TV! Best of all, it cost me RM 95 for that small thing. Anyway, that's the first time my mum didn't want to pay for it. Hahahaha.. I guess, its time for me to get a life of my own. Anyway back to movies. Year 2007 is a year of exciting movies. Well at least to me, I'm sure of it. Okay, let's see a few of my highly anticipated movie list: 1. Spider-Man 3 I read bout the reviews in IMDb. They either hate it or love it. 8.2 /10 for the ratings, shouldn't be that bad huh i guess. Anyway, not interested in the love story between the hero and Mary Jane. I still wonder why that name. Well sue me for not being a Kirsten Dunst's fan. Well, back to the movie, Spider-man turns evil, and the complexity of friendship between him and Harry Osbourne. Well ...

A friend is leaving this country soon. I wish for him to have a whole new world full of promises and dreams there. He's one of the closest friend whom I've get to know last year. Sometimes it's funny how people can get along in such a short time. Net friends, especially. Maybe I'm fortunate to meet people who's really true bout themselves, and not hiding their true self behind the veil of online chatting. Back to my friend, he's one of the nicest people I've known. Being an African in a foreign country, it's never an easy life for him. I admire his strong will to keep on surviving. To have positivism buried deep inside him despite all the odds he faced. I felt so small beside him. Few more days, you'll be gone. You promised to keep in touch through e-mails and online chatting. But I guess, not having you around here to talk to is a different experience altogether. You've been nice enough for me to talk to all this while. You taught me on how to ...
