Hvn't updated in ages... I think among all my friends, the only one who faithfully update her blogs to let people know what she is doing is Daphne. She is a very free hardworking person! Today I am on leave... Papa got a medical checkup so I was able to apply familycare leave.. It is always good to take a rest from work. I think I have lost total motivation at work. Getting more and more motivated to find greener pastures though, due to both personal and work reasons. Turnover is quite high in the department, the long staying ones are mainly associates-level, people who have been with the company for 10 over years... generally the younger ones and executives level.. the average age of us are prob 1-2 years? *shrug*
I was just telling Daphne last night that the big boss think I am a harmless happy girl at work, so she has never pay much attention to me in terms of prep talk/counselling... it will probably be the shocker for her when I resign. But then again, since she never really talk to me about my career etc, how can she assume that I am happy here? She will start drinking coffee/tea with people (who she want to keep) with obvious attitude problem or when they have throw the letter... generally once people throw the letter and have a job waiting for them, people hardly will take back... it would have been too late and too little by then. So yes, it is time to brush up the CV (yes I know again, cos I realise i made some stupid mistakes) and start surfing the net and talking to people. But the thing to note is I was not interested in Financial reporting then and I am still not interested in Financal Reporting, stop introducing me Financial reporting job! Sometimes I feel that this particular friend of mine (lets call her H) is weird. H constantly will tell me about job offers that she herself deemed too lousy or not interesting etc to me. U know, you shouldn't pass things that you dun like to your friends? And it is definitely not a case of 1 man posion and the other man's meat. She will tell me how she thinks she must be careful for her next career step, how this is not what she want to do,but she need to think hard what she want to do before moving on blah blah. The next thing we know she will turn around and tell me, why? why are u so choosy? just move lah, not as if there is no job, just do lah blah blah.... and she will tell H2 that why are you complaining about your work, I am doing similar stuff and I am still here hard at work... DUH. 1st you are complaining and you are actively looking... 2nd hers job is probably 50 times more mundane and boring compare to yours!!! Things like this just leave me speechless... I am not saying that she is not a good person.. she just give me the feeling that she is very competitive, controlling and tends to like to show that she is the only suffering one.. oh well... and I do know that she is sincerely trying to help some of us.. but...
Tomorrow is the DnD... friends know that I am quite vain and like to dress up... to my horror, my table suddenly decided that our theme is "Pai Kia" aka ah beng ah lians. Oh my goodness!!! What is going to happen to the nice dress that I wanted to wear. I like these occassions simply becos they allow me to wear my dresses! N the next thing I heard most of them are coming in jeans!! Jeans for DnD?!?!?! grrl.. the boyfriend is telling me he is coming in pants.. and since we are going out after that I cant come in jeans! This is going to be so bad.. later I need to dig thru the warobe to see what I can wear.. that is nice enuff, presentable enuff and nt odd for the table.. seriously what is wrong with these people!?!?! N to think I have even make apptment with Jacky to cut my hair n thinkin of lettin him do my hair nicely for the dinner.. sigh. Oh the bright side, the boyfriend will be there to compliment me =)) Yes yes, even though I whine and complain but I do heart the boyfriend... he makes me feel cherished and pampered (when he is not making me angy or angry with me!)
Been telling the boyfriend this few days that I feel like opening a florist. Seriously thinking of taking some florist classes etc et and start learning from the scratch.. I think Yi Hua will be a happy girl being surrounded by flowers all the time... love love love them! so pretty and 香!!Simple life.. no office politics, no nasty emails... working for myself... la la.... maybe tt shall be my 30 years old goal...
So my next year resolution will be.. takin up some floristy courses! Think dear going to faintz.. haha
