Birthday!

Today is my 19th birthday. Even though I still have to work, the feeling is really different. I meant you tend to feel different from your normal days. Received a lot of birthday wishes today and I'm really happie =)

I feel that I am one who loves surprises but usually, I tend to sense things fast around my surrounding that I will spoil the fun. Ooops. Yesterday night was my company dinner, there is another girl who had the same birthday as me and I guess they intend to celebrate her bdae at the dinner. I was in the car that my boos drove and I think Janice went to tell the assistant director that today was my birthday as well.

She was like'Oh really, Where's cuifen?' (I'm sitting at the other side of the car for goodness sake). I wasn't really awkward cause I didn't expect them to remember an intern's bdae as well. But I really love the dinner and the companion of all the interns and designers. We form the younger genre man. Haha. Shall upload some photos to see another time.

Anyway, for today I really got a surprise when Emily emailed me this:



Isn't this cute, they insisted me to put this as my wallpaper, like what they did as well. But looking at it everytime I minimize some doc can really make me feel joyful. Thanks Emily, Janice Phua, Chia Chia and KC for all this. :D

Oh not forgetting my beloved papa, mama and jie jie(s). My ice cream cake, super nice wallet and the waterbottle for my pressie. I wonder if you guys read my blog but Thank you!!!

Finally a day @ home.

Managed to get both days of my weekend off this week so that I could rest at home. I felt that ever since SIP started, I have the urge to go out after work every day. There may be 2 reasons; time could past faster as there is something to look forward to other than reporting for work and another thing is freedom.

I think I'm big enough to make decisions on my own rather than having the need to report everything, where I go, what I do, where and what I eat as well as who I am hanging out with. I think I'm sensible enough to take care of myself. Caring is one thing but too much can be overbearing.

SIP week 3

Today I was quite happy at work, because I'm given 3 half days in return for my OT and I can get to participate in events finally! This is something that I've been longing for.

However, to date I'm still scared of working directly with my director. He is really one who doesn't listen to explanations and wants things to be done in his own way. I really hate it when he gives you the initmidating look that decreases your morale to work. I've got this particular encounter today. First of all, it is rare that we interns have a chance to eat out cause we are always the ones who have to take orders and da bao back for whoever wants to eat. It isn't easy as there are normally quite a number of orders and we can only go in shifts (12 to 1 or 1 to 2)

For today, i am in the 1 to 2 slot, my manager called and ask me to look for NW map for her, as many as possible. I thought she was trying to look for the district and I start searching, that was already 12 plus when she called. A while later, the rest of the interns came back and we went to eat, fortunately i asked janice to help me look for some images before i left.

When we came back at 1.45, i was called in for a briefing for next week's event which ended in about 2 plus. Just as i was about to start searching forthe whatever images she wants, boss came out and started asking who was the one responsible for looking those images. (Shitly, it's me)

He wanted me to show him the pictures I've got but I told him that I have yet to find a lot then, not accepting this, he wants to see whatever i have, i showed him what Janice has found and he was like, and then? That it? so where are the boundary? (F** sia, nobody tells me need to find the boundary can, CCB). when i said ok, i start looking for it now, he was like' Cuifen, where are my pictures?), I said i dun have it and he tells me 'I dun have time to wait until tml you know, i want it by today, give you 5 minutes to find it and put into my folder'.

WTF, first of all, no clear instructions are given, secondly, strictly to say i only have a few minutes to start finding the picture, thirdly, i didn't say i'm going to give him the images only tml. I dun bother to explain to him about my lunch breaks and everything cause I know in his eyes, all these will be simply excuses. (save my breath) Fortunately, i managed to find them and give him on time. But I think he should really change his stubborn attitude if not his workers may just leave him one day. (Not cursing but analysing)

Now i realised that 1st impession doesn't mean anything, his 1st impression to us is nothing, or even as a friendly peson, but in actual fact, it's otherwise. I am enduring this cause of attachment, if not, I would have resigned in probably one month's time.

SIP.. =(

Wow wow wow, finally feel like blogging for SIP after so long. I don't like doing SIP, seriously. Hope it can end ASAP. I think if you ask me what I have done most of the time during SIP, is to Da Bao (takeaway) for the staffs in the company. I really hate it, especially when they are fussy in buying food. Furthermore, we are not superwoman can, always have to carry big and small packets of food, worse than aunties.

What I don't really like is they are rather bias, meaning whenever there is an event, they will ask the guy to go, rather than girls. Just because he is a guy doesn't mean he is more capable and stronger than us can. (But i know he is sick of being asked all the time too.)

Anyway, I really miss school, I would really prefer doing one project in replacement of this stupid SIP that seems more like exploiting students. I miss my friends, very much!

However, I know I'm not alone in this, I guess most of us are complaining on how sucky the companies treat us and I really wish that SIP can end very much earlier. Approx 2 months earlier, even though I know tt's impossible. =(

Zoo outing + previous posts

Wow, it has been a long time ever since i'm so devoted to shopping and going out with friends. Sometimes, i really enjoy going out with different friends on different days to different places, doing different things. =)

Sat: Mayday Concert!!
Sun: out with yanxin
Mon: CYA video filming + gathering
Tues: Teacher's day gifts + shop with yanxin again =)
Wed: Go out with mummy
Thurs: Facial + shopping
Fri: Zoo!!

Although there are things to do everyday, shopping has cost me to go broke. =( Oh anyway, the filming process was rather funny, prob cos my partner is Jia en, meimei. heee, she always NG and sort of affects me. Ok la, some were my problems too, but pls dun post those behind the scene up on facebook can, Save us some face la. Tsk Tsk.

Anyway, for today's outing was quite disappointing at first. For the GUYS who are supposed to turn up but did not, I hope you guys really read this, but I shall leave to all to fate if you all do/not. First of all, it is really alright if you all dun wanna go, even though we may pester you for a few days, but still, shldn't back out last minute. We spent time and effort in thinking of interesting ideas, arranging a time slot where everyone can make it to arrange this outing but it all depends on your MOOD whether or not to turn up. We even try to give you morning callS specially to wake you up and in the end, still MIA!!

Seriously as seniors we feel a bit upset, furthermore Bizhi woke up early morning to make breakfast and thought of games we could play with the original numbers of people we should have so as to make this outing an interesting one. In the end, NO SHOW. Not even an apology and you all continue to sleep. Haiz~~~

Anyway, we girls enjoyed at the zoo despite all the mosquito bites and the rain. We even went to feed the giraffe which is a bit scary for me. 1stly, it is the 1st time a huge animal is standing so close to me and secondly, his/her tongue is damn 'solid' and 'tough' + long, and it can curl. I felt it when it accidentally licked my thumb, but I dun dare to scream. We took lots of pictures and it's very tired but i really enjoyed cos it's fun!! jia en, next time pls see properly b4 wearing ur clothes out without noticing tt it's not the correct one. (P.S: she wore CYA shirt). Hahaha.

Some photos to view. =)

Mayday concert

MOF with yanxin

CYA outing + shopping day

Wow, it has been quite long ever since I stayed out so late. After having dinner with the CYAs, somehow some of us didn't feel like going home so early yet. In the end, Bizhi, Jayme, Jia en, Woon jun, Hui min and me went to Tampines McDonald to play cards. I learnt a new game though- saboteur. Initially, I thought we were going home at about 2 plus 3am cause most of them were talking about how to go home; by cab la~, walking home la~. In the end, I went home like 7am.

I bathe and slept for 3 hrs before preparing for Pearlyn's visit. She brought a super big plastic bag carrying all the cushions and I guess she needs me to sew the teacher's day present as well. With my closing eyes, we managed to finish them fast. But so sad, she can't join me to pass these presents to the teachers. This made me so shy and embarrassed. Imagine the only one giving out present like santa claus. But still most of them are not in. (Except Ms Chua and Mr Png) =) Happie Teacher's Day!

After that, went straight to meet my friend for shopping, it was fun though I'm very sleepy. And I think this is the factor that caused us to start speaking nonsense and crapping throughout the day. Thanks xin for accompanying me to buy clothes despite your MP. =)

Anyway, gotta mention abt this. Remember MOF people, I personally think the service in Sintec City is much better than the one in Marina Square after dining in twice this week. Well, in terms of friendliness and responsiveness, I'll definitely prefer the one in Suntec. Anyway, the food there is nice, esp the sushi and dessert. Yum Yum, shall post some pictures next time. I think blogspot is quite irritating sometimes.
