3rd day

Today is Sandz' birhtday. Happy Birthday Sandz! Hope you had great celebration this year! :)

Today is also the 3rd day of my life as an account manager. How does it feel? All I can say its pure craziness. One can only ogle at the pace we are working, especially for those who are not in the same industry. 24/7, goods are being moved, from one place to another, reaching to the end of the world and unknown places. Sometimes I feel that we are performing magic every day. Doing things beyond imagination, planes, trains, truck, even bicycle...all were used to cater to our customer's needs. That's basically the life of this industry.

Manage to secure a big shipment, worth 150k to be exact. Thanks to my operation colleagues, and my managers, strings are pulled and wonders created. Even got a note from my ex-boss, congratulating me for securing the business. But I guess, the credit goes to the team. The whole team. From courier to operational staffs to the supervisors, each and everyone of them helped out on the shipment. Wonder what can I do to show my gratitude? Without them, none of this can be done.

Of course this is only the tip of the iceberg of what I will be facing next few years (I hope... ), as Bryan said, there will be more challenges ahead. Can I sail through this? Can I excel and achieve my targets? Can I survive the madness of the industry? All I can say is, I hope so. Can't ask for much, but hard work does pay off at times. At least that's what I have been through this year.

Tomorrow is another new day, new challenges and new people to meet. I'm dead exhausted but hey, I'm happy. That's what everyone should feel isn't it? No complains, except for the neck and backache.. and the point that i'm really sleepy... :) But well, it was a good day and hope lady luck stands by me through out the weekend. As Simmone said it, cross my fingers, cross my legs, and cross my 'bulu' as well. =p

Road back home -A marriage of accounting, planning, and acting skills

What a jovial mood i'm in. Nothing particular exciting but just felt good, at least until now. Gonna go back home later on a 2 1/2 hours of bus travel... Sigh... Just realized that I've been travelling back home like this for years. During my uni days (hah, sound like it's been so long!), i couldn't afford to travel back home every weekends/month. Too far away and the only transport available is airplane. So, I went back twice or a year, sometimes during holidays, sometimes during term break. Remembering back then, we students are really good in calculating the lowest expenditures to go back home.. Many of us had actually mastered all the required skills (accounting and planning skills) and can easily passed off as travel agents or accountants. We even mastered our acting skills especially to the staffs in airlines booking agency and airports ( it's due to the fact that we are almost certain to bring overweight luggage every time we stepped on an airplane).. The who...

My Donkey

Remember the annoying, big mouthed yet good in nature Donkey in Shrek and Shrek 2? Can you remember any friends that resembles the Donkey? And seriously, I DO NOT MEAN PHYSICALLY!!! Recently, I've come to realized that there are lots of " Donkeys " in my life. Don't feel offended if I'm referring anyone as a donkey, coz do put in mind that at the same time, I'm an Ogre too. Yep, it's funny how some friends tend to annoyed us so much that we would like to tell them to shut their mouth sometimes! They will keep on going just to keep us annoyed even you've give out all the possible signals and hints that you're really not in the mood to join in their play. But their patience is somewhat last for eternity. They'll follow you around just to keep you in their watching distance. Although some may not resembled the loud Donkey in Shrek, but they do have other ways to annoy you. I have this particular friend who were so choosy and annoying, and somet...
