I am a happy person today.

Cause I just got myself a new phone Samsung D600. The camera function is absolutely superb.

I swear by samsung when it comes to mobiles. No nokia-s for me please.


Been having some thoughts.

That I have been living each day as it is,

when it should have been living my life to the max, to the fullest.

An acquaintance has been psycho-ing me to job-hop to rival banks.

Apparently, I could have gotten a much higher basic if I shift my ass elsewhere.

I wouldnt deny I was tempted, indeed.

But to be frank, I am looking more along the lines of getting out of being a PFC altogether.

So it doesnt really make sense for me to deliberate whether to switch over to other banks,

for I would still be doing the same old shit.

It's like jumping from one hole to the other hole, blindly.

But at the end of the day, I am still stuck within a hole. If only u know what I mean.

 

The customers whom I have encountered of late have been pretty much the same profile,

pretty much fucked-up I mean.

Rich

no, make that filthy rich, english-educated, with that Ah-Tas attitude thinking they own the whole world,

when all they could do is seek solace in the many zero-s in their big fat bank account.

 

Sickening would definitely be an understatement.

In case you are wondering whether I've gotten pregnant, married, kidnapped or blah blah blah.

I am not.

It's just that jinxed thing named "w-o-r-k".

Busy and all that. You know the drill.

Only comfort being that I am getting the hang of it.

Money's been pretty good. Not that I have anything to complain about that.

Still, sales figures really tire you down.

If I could be just that tad blunt to sum it up,

my job's like a high class sales girl.

Trying to at least pulled through for a year, before thinking of the next move.

Someone's being dying to see me leave the branch. Those jealousy bad vibes I've been getting from her, kills me.

I just feel that if you have not been putting that same amount of effort into the job,

then please just simply get lost.

What's with those sour-grapey remarks.

Some people just never grow up.

Hey.

It's been a long long hiatus from here. All work and no play makes no time for blogging.

In case you are wondering, I am still surviving.

Surviving the many obstacles that were ambushed in this very line that I am in.

It's nice to have a drink with an exclassmate of mine, and alleybar is just the ideal watering hole for that.

Sharing the woes that we both encounter,

it never felt better than to have someone who share the same sentiments as you.

Keep on going on ! = ) you know who you are.

 

To cut it short, this aint my cup of tea ultimately.

But then again, how many of us are actually able to land ourselves in the job that we would have otherwise yearn to.

It is an extremely competitive line, no doubt.

You get different kind of treatment, so long as you are able to achieve your quota.

Figures are all what matters.

Yet, as ironic as it may sound,

I have no regrets.

For it's a totally different kind of exposure to the multi-faceted lives of others.

Bootlicking, backstabbing, jealousy.

Welcome to the real world my friend.

Hello, people!!!

Been missing for several weeks.
Busy with work, dealing with office politics, stressing about sales, dreading to go work every morning.
I can go on forever.


We lost a member of our family, a week ago.
The bad blood between some of us was dispersed, and I am glad for that.
In retrospective, I do admit I might have been way too strongheaded that time.
Even the little cousins broke down eventually on the last day of the wake.


It's true,
that no one can ever predict the future.
No one knows what tomorrow brings.
Cherish the ones u loved,
for regrets are not an easy thing to deal with.


Really hope He leaves with a peace of mind,
and bless everyone in the family, especially my grandparents.


Hopefully, whatever had happened will pull the whole family closer together.


Work havent been very rosy, so far.
I have been officially deployed out to the branch. Not a very ideal posting by many.
Being new and totally unfamiliar with the operations of the bank,
I am easily the target for those mean bullies at work.
Glad that my EQ's pretty good.
I didnt break down in front of those colleagues with devil horns sprouting from their heads.


Though the boyfriend's rather poor thing,
I couldnt help but vent my anger on him on several occasions.


I hope it's only a temporary phase.


            some pics to share. did i mention i miss my colleagues so?


          

Everyone's busy snapping photos, hogging the mikes.
I'm the only one guzzling myself with the beer. Heh.

Down to the last 3 days of training. Time flies when you are enjoying.
I am so going to miss my colleagues. They are such a goofy lot.

We went for some karaoke at this pub called Q room. It was loads of fun, wacky phototaking and beer, beer and more beer.
Left earlier around midnight, hopped over to Shin and met up with E and his friends.
The chivas nearly had me killed.
Pretty much knock-ed out once I hit the bed.

Stomach's been feeling queasy all day long. Wanted to stay in at home to have a good rest.
But Francis said the usual clique had plans for the night. Drinking again.
Oh wells. Though I was literally dragging myself out of the comforts of my room, to get changed for the night out.

Now gaming at the LAN shop. Waiting for the rest to arrive,
and kickstart the drinking session.
Start early ,
end early mah.
I am damn shagged now.

I am going to seriously miss my MT colleagues. Haiz.
I really hate this kind of feeling.
