2nd day at work

Things are getting busy. Oh by the way, I've finished the host and it's nice. I think I'm changing into a cry baby if I don't control myself. Like during Toystory 3, I didn't really cry my heart out (I'll do it if I'm alone) and hence when I read this book, I have the feeling to do so BUT of course I didn't!!

Anyway, back to work life. How is it??

Oh, I haven't tell you. I'm working in the CEO's office so I MUST wear formal (cannot be lazy like in IMU jeez) and yesterday the CEO came and many staffs had meeting with him to the point he said loudly (I don't know if it's him or other people) "Why keep having meeting, you guys don't need to work ah?!"

So, the 1st task for yesterday was to photostate this whole stack of paper and I got a deep wound from the staple because the paper was very unorganized. Next, the staff who sat behind me came and teach me who to operate their system and it was easy to remember at 1st but I wrote down just in case I forget which is something that WILL happen.

Later, another staff came and taught me more and she didn't really teach. She just showed and left and I couldn't follow so she showed me again. I still could not remember so I explored by myself yet could not do anything.

After lunch, the 1st staff came and I asked for her help. Thank god she was nice enough to teach. Then she told me, I will be leaving next month so you better learn up quick. OMG!!! Oh ya, this staff is 1 year older than me and she worked here 2 years already.

In the midst of using the system, I went to send some documents to other departments at other floor too and at 10 floor, some ladies interrogated me. They finally found out I'm a medical student and the expected sentence came -- When we come and see you, don't charge us that expensive ya!! JEEZ~~~

OK, it's 6.30am and I got to go take bath already. I sent a FB message to a doctor I know when I was in sem 1 completing my COP and he saw my picture. Guess what he added in his message

.....A word of advice.Ditch the specs.You look good without it.

HAHAHAHAHHA!!!!

1st day in corporate world

So today, I finally had a taste of working in the corporate world.

1st day's feeling-- BORING!!!!

I actually almost finish reading The Host by Stephenie Meyer!!

The people there gave me a few tasks of passing some document to other departments at other floor and that's it. The toughest thing for today was remembering names hehe.

Anyway, if this goes on, I might as well just bring papa patho there and read!! LOL!!!

But I have the feeling that this freedom might not last long.

Wish me luck for tomorrow =)

New hairstyle, New changes

Today is a very VERY productive day!!

Morning went for a 20 minutes jog because got to sent dad down to KL by 8am.

Next, went to YMCA to (FINALLY!!) sign up for sign language class and had breakfast. At first we wanted to go to Decanter for breakfast but since we were at YMCA, for convenience sake we just ate there =)

After that, went to Metro Prima Kepong to watch movies. Before that, went and bought dresses!! Gasp!!! Me wearing dresses only happens when an alien takes over my body.
Nope, I've check. This is me, a new me after this new hairstyle. Wow, new hairstyle really brings a whole new personality. Maybe you guys can give it a try =P
OK, so I bought 2 dresses and I kinda like it. Gasp!! Me liking me wearing dress?! OK, this is starting to feel creepy. Anyone wanna check if I am an alien now??

Anyway, my mom and I watched


and

Toy Story 3 is AMAZINGLY FANTASTIC!!!!! It was so touching and it brings back so much memories!! Andy is so handsome!! Woody is so Woody and Buzz was so funny when he was in the Spanish mode!! Hahaha!! Gosh I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this awesome movie!! I wanna watch it again. The ending was really so sad and touching and just can't stop loving it. I want to watch it AGAIN!!!! And it's so amazing that kids actually can sit and watch (even though sometimes they are a little noisy due to short attention span but it was not most of the time). It was really awesome because the noise the kids produced in the cinema was less than what I expected. Good movies have that effect and this movie has it!! Bravo!! I wanna watch again, anyone?

The Legend Is Born: Ip Man was also not bad. I can't stop laughing at the beginning of the appearance of Dennis To (Teenage Ip Man) because he sounds like a duck!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. It was as if he was pinching his nose and talking!! After getting used to it only did I manage to enjoy the show. More Wing Chun and all the real stuff are here, even the real eldest son of Ip Man (Ip Chun) acted in this movie and Dennis is the real thing too!! He is currently the World Kung Fu Champion and actually knows Wing Chun which he studies under the movie's producer Checkley Sin (disciple of Ip Chun himself)!!These are the casts of this movie.

After this, I will be going to St Mary's School Band Concert. The 1st band concert after so many years.

Fun day right?? =)

New hair cut after job interview

Let's start with my day.

I slept at 2.30 am because I was trying to finish my resume (so proud of my resume because can see all my achievements hehe). So when my alarm rang at 7am I could not wake up and ended up rising at 8.30am!!! Did the house chores and went out with dad at 10.30am.

Reached the Jalan Raja Chulan monorail to meet my friend but I was 40 minutes early so ended up taking the monorail to Bukit Bintang and walked to the company. Met up and had lunch then headed to the HR department for my interview.

Interview
When you think about interview, you'll think about people talking and asking you questions right? My interview was
1. Filing up a 4 pages long form which was identical to creating my resume.
2. Writing an essay from 3 questions (choose one)
Question1. Describe your greatest challenges in your entire career
Question2. Suggest 10 ways when dealing with a difficult boss
Question3. Describe what you know about the company and how you will fit in
3. Listening to the HR personnel telling me the rules and regulation, salary, dress code etc

So the whole interview was just that. WOW right?? I was =.="' because I don't even need to let her see my resume or certs. When I asked if I need to submit my resume, she just said "ya, if you have it, you can pass it to me." So she took a look and I think she was impressed because she said "Very active in school eh." You bet!! Hahaha.

Went back to KL Sentral and enjoyed a cake and coffee at Secret Recipe while waiting for mom to come back from Jakarta (LCCT).

Hair cut
Went home and suggested to (finally!!) have a hair cut so my mother took me to Mezzo and the hairstylist named Vincent cut my hair. My mother signed up for this package which costs RM100 few weeks ago which allows 7 haircuts. After one guy showed me my sit, they offered a free drink from a selection of juices, tea, coffee or soft drinks. After declining that offer, they asked me which type of magazine I want (Chinese or English). I declined again but they still served me a cup of water and still put some magazine on the table (I spotted the words "safe sex" at the 3rd (base) magazine LOL!!)

Let's talk about this Vincent. He's about mid 20s, have this cool hairstyle, long slender fingers and the thing that impressed me the most--the way he handled the scissors, very cool and have a lot of turns (like having some performance) and I believe he takes part in those hairstyling competition because I've seen such technique in television. He tried to build rapport while cutting my hair by asking me questions, complimenting my hair and suggested a few ways to maintain it. Good, but I felt it was a little too fake. Anyway, I let him decide my hairstyle and I told him I want fringe.

Before he started chopping off my hair, he asked "are you ready?" Honestly, I didn't feel anything until he started chopping my fringe. "Don't worry, this is just the 1st step. Can see that you are starting to look frighten haha." When I saw myself in the mirror with the fringe, my head was shouting "COCONUT HEAD ALERT!!!!" After that, I decided to just close my eyes and hope for the best.

When it was 80% done, I was a little bit used to the new look. My mother who went out to make a rubber stamp came back and was happy to see me with the fringe. "Yer, you look so cute like some Japan/China doll!! Haha." Coming from my mother, it was a little too weird. Next, Vincent and another guy started to comb my hair while blowing it with the hair drier. That guy too asked a few questions which was similar to what Vincent asked in the beginning. I think it's some standard questions for them LOL!!

Overall, I need to get use to this new hairstyle (fringe!!) because I feel so hot and always have this urge to sweep the hair to the side. Vincent told me I must always comb it down because I haven't had fringe for a long time (I think for the past 15 years LOL).

Take a look and feel free to critic =)

Working

Panic now. I forgot how to write a resume and my interview is tomorrow and they need it. Dang!!

Oh ya, I'm going for a job interview tomorrow at KL and I have no idea which department they will put me at and I just know that it's a Insurance company. Smart right?

My friend is working there as a part timer for the 2nd time (she's having her 3 months break) and she heard that the company needs part timer. My initial plan was to work at my mom's company as something which I forgot but my mom advised me not to work there because of the bad politics. So I end up asking my friend if there's vacancy at the place she's working at. That was on Tuesday (her off day) so she informed the HR department on Wednesday. Today I just received a call from her to come for interview tomorrow and start work on Monday.

Wow, too fast!! I planned to rest for another week but since it's an Okay pay I'll bear with it =P
I haven't start watching Dr.House or Supernatural and I have another 10 more movies to watch. I guess I need to reschedule everything.

I haven't enquire about the sign language classes too!! Gah!!

Chill. 1st step. Google samples of resume, then create one and sort out my school certs. Clothes?? HELLO?? Am I the type of girl who decides what to wear the night before?? NO~~ Or maybe I should? Gosh, which bimbo landed on my head and invaded my brain? Go Away!!

So for now, Mr.Google help me please.

Update you guys tomorrow about the interview =)
