Whoa, it has already been one month into the new year?!
Work has been CRAZY lately, a researcher left around Nov. but boss decided not to hire a new one right now = =; And then we are doing audited report for the past two years, so that means hunting down old documents on top of everything else *pulls hair out*
Good thing is tho, I got two months salary as bonus, and a raise for the next year.
Bad thing is... when I told my dad what my new salary is (which, as far as I know, is already higher than all my highschool/college friends that I kept in touch with), he was like "... as long as you're happy with that" = =; he thinks I should be on a career path to be an executive or something... *sigh* hate to disappoint, but I don't think I'm cut out for that.
On a happier (?) note, saw Sweeney Todd at the cinema yesterday, loved it, tho I missed the parts that they took out (esp the "we've got tinker", "something pinker", "tailor?", "paler", "butler!", "subtler" bit xD) but it was beau~tiful~ anyway XD
Getting dragged to China for vacation next week, it's bloody cold there right now tho', I'm half hoping the tour would get cancelled, or if it doesn't, I pray we don't get stuck there for a week because of bad weather.
