i am the new MC Queen. not job hopper already. think kelly has displaced me on that position.
not that i faked anything on those MCs but the doc just felt that i should be given 3 day mc cause i teared in front of him due to horrible headache. so since, it wasn't faked mcs, i would just use it in good faith. had horrible splitting headache, the throbbing pain was unbearable. i had fever for 2 days!
the doc asked if i am too stressed at work.
is it really caused by work stress?? i actually think work's OK. i think its more about sch. with 3 modules and such tight deadlines and unreasonable lecturer.
anyway. too much MCs is gonna affect my work performance. but i guess its been affected already. ;( i kana warning already! i have like, 5 MCs with 2 months. no wonder i kana the warning.
haiz. what to do??????????????????

art n crafts;)
its the thought that counts. so for bf's bday, he will receive a piece of cake from me. i spent about 1-2 hours 'baking' it.
It was made with love of course. and eh, needle. cloth. sponge. did i mention, love? haha.
ok, it wasn't very hard. but stiillll, i improvised on it. so, i made it easier. no close ups! the stitching wasnt good la.
And ta-dahhhhhhhhhhhh.
the chocolate cake is done!( i hope it looks decent AND i know it doesnt look llike the picture at all. lol) i dunno how materialistic am i, bbut i am glad that he isnt happy with expensive presents. in fact, he will scold me for splurging.

oh-no- time flies
hello... its reaching the quarter of the year. March!!
so i am been soakin in the FMCG world close to a quarter of year!!! my boss asked if i learnt anything. yes, i did and still learning. there is so much i need to learn. gah. i cant learn FAST enough. i can ignore the stress. but its definitely there.
its definitely different from my previous industry. this one is more exciting, it literately is fast moving. in 2 months, i gotten 300 mails. not that i am directly involved, but thats the way it is in mnc, so dont get mistaken.
kelly said its not easy to get into FMCG. i am treasuring it. i really am=) i hate to it admit, but i think i enjoy the fast paced env. it really gives a sense of productivity.
its not so easy coordinating 3 design projects which i have to seek opinions of 6 persons before i can move ahead. you have to very clear -headed... which i am scared that i am not clear enough. there is so many seemingly easy things to coordinate, but i am just... nervous. i feel like there will be a appraisal after this peak period. and i ...can feel lit. its sink or swim. whether i am renewed is definitely decided before december.
haix. its not easy gasping the very intelligent SAP system... tho i am glad wenli is there to help. its not so easy dealing with so many products and suppliers and vendors. i envy those ppl who remember the codes after just a glance.
and today, HORRORS- i commited a boo-hoo.in creating a new vendor record, i actually wrongly filled it in what product he was supplying.
oh . my. god. i am here to repent. pls forgive me. i had yet to tell the poor colleague in msia abt this mistake though. gah. i hope she doesnt hate me. which i think will be significantly harder after this episode. but i will know if she can forgive me tmr.....
boss will be away to for a week long holiday. i can tell she hope i dont screw things up in her absence. i hope so too. i think i hope for it more than you do. ((mantra: i can do it. i can do it.)
hahahahaahahahahahahahaha.
i want to be a seasoned pro as soon as possible. i want to be invited to mediacorp luncheon and slashed advertising cost of agency by half. i want to sound confident cause i know i have to decision making power.
yayayaya. i remain positive. i have to be. gah.
we had durains today! they drove to geylang to buy back loads of it. i hope the office dont stink tmr.

Professor Umbridge
Professor Umbridge was one of the lead characters in the Harry Porter series. A follow of the Dark Lord, who thrived on the misery of the students in Hogwarts.
Whether Ms H. of our C&C Mgt thrives on our misery or not, she has as much popularity as Prof Umbridge among the students in her class. ( at least the group of us)
I ABSOLUTELY HATE THAT CLASS !!!!!!!
some1 help me. i dun think passing that module is easy. i read those readings but to avail. i dun understand what those 30 words that form a sentence mean.
haix.
depressing.
i am at a loss on how to start that stupid essay.
work is like... more pleasant than that class. i like doing what i am doing. i just regret that i dun have great ideas for them n i am too absent minded to be more competent. in any case, i work towards to be more competent everyday!
i dun wanna received bad feedback!
if anything, i have very high expectations of myself. i feel stupid if i dun get a simple thing right. but the truth is, a simple thing, even a simple thing such as printing documents, can give some1 a huge headache.
haix.
i gotta learn how to lower down self expectations to be at ease with myself. just a tiny bit.

KIDDING!
we still had the same kind of steamboat. the same kind of red packets. except i appreciate the kindess and blessings behind them even more. i sincerely say that its the thought that counts.
we gathered at the same place. i went to HCY house as usual. wht was a first was going to the Home to visit grandpa.
poor thing.
so many god-given abilities were taken back by god.
he no longer can speak or walk properly after a stoke which left him half paralysed. lets all not take such abilities for granted.
turned out that my boss actually smsed me a wrong timing for her open house! 12pm instead of 2pm. i wonder why... anyway, we went to the NTUC to get the abalone which my mama wanted. jjust nice:) time well maximised.
even had time to camwhore to utilise the extra time @ NTIC XTRA=S

i give myself a pat on my back for my own graciousness @ the episode. hahahahahahaa.
and i ended this Sunday by catching a movie - Sweeny Tod. quite a long feature musical.
its the first film that i can remenber that is shown 99% in grey scale and where the characters looked like living corpose. i know it suited the theme damm well, coz it's gloommy just by lookin at the passers-by A, B and C.
i still wanna watch CJ7 no matter the reviews.

(sch) work - things that r just plain irritating
sch work are not the bane of my exisitence.
they r just a irritance.
but project work is more than a irritance. on one hand, i am glad that the workload is distributed, fair or otherwise- that's another story. but so far, within a group, we always played to our strengths and had no problem with work distribution. project work is like... work! (horrors!!)
why dont i like project work? thats plenty of coordination involved. COORDINATION! dont i have enough of that at work? gah. project mates are like colleagues in another setting. nvr try to upset them if possible. nvr try to step on their toes. try to make all of us happy. u cant move at ur own pace. u gotta move as a team.
we r team, whether we like it or not.
*****
heard a friend cried ovr her breakdown at work. gah. i mentioned this to my boss, begging them dont scold me til i cry if i did something wrong. hahaha. and i find what my bosses say very true and enlightening.
"when can you make mistakes and tell people that its ur right to make one? when u r new!" yup, being new gives u a right to make mistakes. to a certain extent, of course. and anyway who doesnt make mistakes? even seasoned pros are subject to that. its what happens after the mistake that counts.
it happen to me , to friend... to whoever else who are breathing in oxygen. n i feel encouraged that i have such understanding bosses. kekekekkeke. i feel like i should sing the praises of my bosses coz good bosses are hard to be met.
***
i am still in a shopping mood!!! i just finished dying my hair yesterday, back to black, so that i can get rid of my overgrown faded brown locks. and my hair got so rough n dry.=S very unsightly, cause they become so stiff and unmanageable.so ah... i had eh... no choice but to buy some damage control products. hahahahahahaha.
saturday will be dropping by boss's house for house-visit!
