工作的乐趣 - Joy of Working

Oh my god, I'm having fun working... hahaha... How can that be? I'm currently a part time program assistant for an executive program of a famous company. I won't revel it yet before the end of the program but who cares ? Haha... For those who don't know what I'm doing... You can simply say I'm a general clerk. But I rather call myself as a program assistant. Hehe... And I'm honored and happy to be able to assist those executive person of the company throughout the program.

OK. So who are they? They are all executive level staff in the company. Precisely, they are regional directors/directors/team manegers/general managers etc for their own region and all coming over from several countries ; France, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, China, Japan, Singapore, USA, Argentina, Taiwan, Indonesia and Brazil. Wow!! Haha... I'm serving them and it's weird that I'm still happy about them? Haha.. I should be happy, because they might be my future employers .. haha .. juz kidding ... 3 more years and don't know what will happen ... hahaha ...

Actually the job is quite stress because need to sit in the lecture room and assist the professors and follow their instructions. Other than that I will need to play many many roles at a time including, general clerk, general worker (shifting stuff), replenishing staff (replenish waters every lecture), IT assistant (help in laptop setup), Wireless LAN Consultant (consult delegates for the WiFi thingy), General Secretary, Light and Sound Engineer (turning on and off for professors' presentation), files & notes distributor, Photographers ... etc etc ... I'm amazed that I would still be able to multi-tasked. =.=" Luckily, last Thursday Mr. Lee (regional HR Manager for Asia Pacific for that company) brought all the delegates to de-stress, as a photographer so I got the chance to follow them and yahoo!!!

I tried many new things and I was so excited!! Let you see some pictures first !!

Oh yea.. I scored 48 out of 60 ... GENG leh ? hahaha...

Haha.. The first game that we had was Archery. You can see all those standing beside me are big big fellows... and the white t-shirt man standing so stylish there is the coordinator, Prof. Chew - one of my professor. (aka boss) haha.. honestly very very respect him, though he didn't teach me directly but he did teach me some lesson indrectly... very thanks to him (especially one sentence that he said when I made a mistake - he asked, "You are student from NTU right?", i answered, "yes" and very ashame and guilty, he said, "You know you need to be different!! Cannot be the same!!", i said, "Ya, I know." From now on, I'll never be the same again...)

I had great time together with professors, Mr. Lee (boss from the company), delegates and my little boss Esther and Jowe (ahaha .. i'm assisting them mah..) ... very nice experience !! I grab chance to ask the Singapore delegate about the company and how did he choose the person that went for interview... hahahaha ... i won't tell you all about that .. hehe .. company confidentiality ... hahaha ...

So that is the picture with all the person minus one. (that's me holding the camera... T.T) Oh yea, forgot to mention, it's nice to take photos as well because this office let me shoot photos with their semi-pro camera, Canon EOS 350D ... OH MY GOD !!! Whatever photos that I shot simply just turned to very nice photos automatically magically !! hahaha.. that's the power of MONEY !!!

So you want to see more photos ? Then we went for boat ride along Singapore River later on. That was my first time because SGD12 per ride to me is way too expensive and all I did was just walking along the river. Don't believe ? Ask Kai Yit. Did I bring him onto the boat ? Hahaha ... So this time I got aboard for FREE !! Hahaha... very nice ... So took a lot of picture and together with me on the board are some delegates from Japan, Italy, Taiwan, China, Belgium, Argentina and Brazil !! I had a great experience introducing this foreign city to them !! (I should get a tour guide licence soon... I had had enough explaining all these places to people... hahaha)

This is a nice one. Since I never take boat ride before so never get the chance to shoot the scenes at this angle... Very nice !!!

The uncle hold the camera + the boat shaking so blur a bit.. hahaha.. Nice to talk with them!! Hehe...

In the night Mr. Lee brought all of us to East Coast Park to eat seafood there... hahaha ... ... i think I'll never get the chance of doing this kind of job again. Where the hell in this world you can find a job like mine? hahaha... There we ate, and drink. .. omg !! This is the offical FIRST time I drank BEER. Last time I just drank some DILUTED Heineken (and very little too... 1 small cup) and this time the delegates never ask me then poured 1 big glass of TIGER beer to me already (Japanese delegate .. hahaha .. they are very funny, not yet drink already drunk... hahaha). Throughout the night we ate, we drank (i drank 1 and half big glass of TIGER.. omg .. but i felt nothing .. really nothing at all ... just felt bitter.. wonder why people likes to drink BEER ... @.@") Hahaha .. very funny !! It's really a great time spent !!

It's worth working everyday (Monday-Sunday) from 8am to 8pm .. (sometimes... but that day we went out until 10pm.. haha). I learnt very much especially in social and dealing with BIG and IMPORTANT people. At first before accepting the job I was like... EH ... How to deal with those people leh ? Actually they are just like normal human being, just like our father... hahaha ... normal people and easily mingle with... OK talk too much crap. Later when I snoop more pictures out then I will post more la... C U !!

Single room, or not single room?

I have the whole room to myself for this whole 1 month+. Single room. My roommates have all left, cos they are from health sciences faculty, and their holiday started before me, like you all. Woo-hoo!! Yayy, I have my own room!!! So should be happy wor actually!!

Haih. WRONG. When they left, saying goodbye was sad. I wish they’d leave when I’m not around, don’t wanna say goodbye. And now the room is so empty, I can actually hear the echoes of my own voice….


Our last day together, as 4 ppl sharing one room

So sad...

Siti Marni (Sandakan), me, Stacy Arvinna (Beaufort) and Yee Lie (Kluang, Johor) That's on my bed, actually. haha.


Actually I had been alone before, when they had a one-month holiday last time (and I didin’t have any holiday that time!! *sob sob sob*) Last time it felt wonderful to be alone. So why had I liked a single room then, but not now?

Advantages of single room:

1. I can sleep peacefully! (finally I can sleep well! In a 4 ppl room, someone, any one of my roommates will somehow kacau me during my sleep, cos one likes to sleep very late, one likes to wake up very very early, and one likes to sing while listening to radio. Unfortunately I don’t tidur mati (sleep like a pig) like some ppl, so I look more and more like a panda here. Haha)

2. I have 4 tables to myself!! One table to put computer, one table to study, one table to iron clothes and put kettle… haha I dominate ALL the tables. No need to squeeze anymore…

3. I can study in the room peacefully. I used to always pindah to the study room to study, cos my room is simply too “meriah” to study. So now I don’t need to bring my books here and there d.

4. I have all the privacy I want (and this one don’t need to describe, cos we all love our privacy anyway. Ahaha)
etc etc

Before and After

Only my bed left, only my shelves, my table...

Disadvantages of single room:

1. But when you wake up, you see all the empty beds around… So sien…. And if you accidentally oversleep, no one will wake you up…

2. Study peacefully?? Haih when I’m in my own room I have so many other stuff to do and see, (computer, storybooks, magazines, songs, etc.) much more interesting than studying. At least in study room only notes and nothing else, so can concentrate fully. (luckily my room has no internet connection, cos add this distraction and I’ll surely die…)

3. Normally when I come back from study room, my roommates will somehow eliminate my stress, without even trying. So coming back to room, I have something to smile and laugh about, so relieved from stress… but now stress will be 24/7…. Arghhhh

4. And alone in room, nobody to talk to… no one to teman me eat in room (like picnic last time, haha) very sien…

5. I’m scared of insects! (and you all know the number of weird and wonderful insects here. Every night also got so many visitors!!! So horrible!!) At least last time one of roommates is not afraid of insects… She used to rescue me… Now I have to fight insects alone myself!!! Scariiee... I sure use up my Ridsect very fast one, from now on…

6. Last time when wai jin came to visit me (thanks ya, waijin… so happy you came), after she left, I was soooo down…. Miss everyone…. I just miss people…. Gosh when people leave after visiting me, I’ll feel even worse than before…. Haha I’m so weird
etc etc..


The amount i must study. Actually plus another 2 files under the table... Hahaha (vomit blood)


So, which is better? Single room or not?? 4 people in a room? What do you think? (But I’ll soon be glad I have single room, cos final professional exam coming!!! Help meeeee…) Better concentrate on studying!!! I’ll only be home after 11th June….. Less than one week, my holiday.... Miss you all… Hope when I go home can see you all! Take care, everybody =)

7天以后 - 1 Week Later

OK. As a summary for what's happening around me for last week, I can just use the word COOL to describe it !

First when I finished my exam, me and my friends went out for dinner and the next night we had already cooking steamboat ourselves just to satisfy our own appetite. Honestly we just pour anything into the cooker and let anything boiled !! Hahaha

Then after that steamboat I received a call from a final year senior (going to graduate soon) then we went for photo-shooting. That was the first time I shot around the campus in the middle of the night!! Nothing really to share .. too bad ... tis was taken by my senior ... haha ...

Then ?? The next day my best friend, Kaito coming all the way from KL to NTU to find me!! Haha... so we had the next 4 days spent greatly waling around this little island!! Haha... really, until kaki boleh patah one leh !!

we saw the rainbow in the National Library of Singapore ... sweat!!

crazy so many ppl at Bugis...

We met Wai Jin at Orchard but when we found that was nothing really "worth" to walk around, we traveled all the way to Geylang just to eat YAO ZHA GUAI with Soya bean. Then... you know what happened la when you read Kai Yit's blog... sweat... I caught one super model photo so I want to share with all of you here ... EXCLUSIVE !!

Super model posting with YAO CHA GUAI and Soya Bean !!

Haha... so when Kai Yit went back to KL it's time for me to start working!! OMG... I can tell you the job is ok and quite relaxing so far... but tomorrow many HIGH-PROFILE delegates will arrive.. I don't know what is it gonna like later... haha.. but I can get my hands to try to DSLR because I can use their PRO-camera to shoot for the event!! How nice !! However first thing first... I need to get some formal attire so I went out and buy some ... OMG... ... WALLET HURT VERY MUCH !! I won't tell you how much I spent but I can tell you it's very very very much !! haih..

After buying expensive clothes of course must make some pose la !! hahaha...

ok, I'll need a pair of sunglasses.. See you all later !! TTFN !!

Days in Singapore

Hey, ladies and gentlemen. 5 May to 8 May, I went to Lion City to visit Boon Ming and Waijin (sorry, no photo with Waijin). I think no need to write much about the tour as everyone quite familiar to this neighbor. Just post few photos here.....


In front of NTU chinese heritage centre.


Two warriors?!?! Photos taken in Labrador park, a famous British defence fortress during second world war. Fight for the freedom!!!


In a tunnel of Labrador Park. Have to mention: actually to enter this tunnel have to pay S$8, but we didn't (and we also won't) because we enter from the exit.... haha


In Chinatown.....


Malays and Chinese have to unite to bring prosperity for this city state. Of course, the Federation should have this mindset.


In between the futuristic and the traditional, this is one of important element to attract tourist by Singapore. In front of supreme courts. (Both also....)


With Boon in front of Merlion statue and the giant durian (The Esplanade)


In front of Singapore City.


Stamford Raffles, the founder of Singapore.


Singapore Parliament. I don't think water leaking will happen here... hahaha


Wow..... Taken from National Library...... Impressive.....


Dou Jiang You Tiao (豆浆油条), introduced by Waijin...... the only difference from other is the you tiao is longer than normal one. (mutated you tiao)


With Boon in NTU main building...


With Boon's two cute friends: Tzewei and Cindy, at NTU library.
