what you think?

Been thinking if I should just decide to go for ACCA.

Haha~ None of the uni wants me, or should I say is one of the uni since I've only applied for one uni. Didn't receive any call from them for interview yet. Think I'm unwanted bah. Haha~ Thus, been thinking if I should have just study ACCA instead of uni.

If were to go ACCA, should I take full time or should I take part time? Been thinking of going for part time studies if were to go ACCA. Like that can earn money for the school fees and also, pocket money. Family's not in a financial position whereby they can pay for my study. Gotta depend on myself. Either borrow from bank, or work. That's why I'd like to choose part time ACCA.

If choose part time ACCA, means I gotta find a permanent job. Preferrably as an auditor assistant, if not, an account assistant. Knew that the company I'm working as temp accounts now, is looking for an account assistant. Wondering if I should apply for the position not. Scared of the interview man. Haiz~ Haha~

What do you guys think? Should I try and apply not?

lunch alone =(

*sigh* Christopher on MC today due to bloated eyes (stay up too late playing games lah), leaving me alone for lunch again. Sian -_- Luckily I've got my Buddy to chat with me for a while. Haha~

Nothing better to do now, so just finished filling up the Sudoku. Now blogging as still got around 15 minutes left for lunch. Haha~

Reasons for not lunching when alone:
1. Feel weird if were to join others for lunch, especially if with a group of unfamiliar people. I'll be sitting there like an idiot like that, listening to unknown conversation. Boring also.
2. Why don't go alone? Because if were to go alone, gotta book seat using tissue paper. The problem is not that I don't have tissue paper, just that, I'll tend to forget where I've put the tissue. In the end, I'll be lost in the hawker center, looking for tissue paper. MY tissue paper, I mean. Not others. Haha~

Well, guess some are already back for lunch. I'll start work on time (1.30pm) since if were to start earlier, no pay will be given. Haha~ So calculative hor? Well~ Haha~ Who cares? That's the truth anyway.

Buddy! Jia you for your finals! You surely can do it de, no worries. You've got my moral support. Haha~ I know lah, exams period is a stressful period. Once over, you'll feel much better already. Jia you ah! You'll be back soon. We'll relax and enjoy during your holidays, okie?

(Buddy! Why this time round come back for such a short period only? Cannot really spend much time with you man. *sigh*)

S*** LUNCH!!!

Went to the place where we normally have our Zi Chai (don't know how "spell"). I think it's called Buddy's Shop or whatever the name it is. So fed up with the person, you know?! This was what had happened:

I ordered a place of FRIED RICE and then it came a plate of SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE, asking if it was mine. Of course I said it's not mine as I had ordered FRIED RICE W/O SALTED-FISH. Thus they came and brought me what I had ordered for my lunch.

When I just started eating, another person brought out the SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE again, and asked her colleague who was it for. Guess what the person replied?!

Person: This is who's SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE?
Colleague: The person at table 22 ordered this SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE, and then change to FRIED RICE.

Hello!! Why are you pushing the blame to me?! I've not ordered any SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE before! I remembered very clearly that I've ordered. Even if I've forgotten, the plate of SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE can never be ordered by me as I don't really like to eat SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE.

What customer service was that?!! Pushing the blame to the customer!! Most probably is that the order had been taken down wrongly! If the person had told me nicely that she had mistaken the order as SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE, I don't mind having SALTED-FISH FRIED RICE.

Really is F***ING bad customer service man! Damn pissed off by them. Really just feel like walking off without paying the bill. Don't wish to patronise that stall anymore. Rather go further a bit, like Amoy, Lau Pa Sa or whatever, than going back to lunch.

F****ING HELL!!

(sorry for the vulgarity)

1st week of work

Day 1

Couldn't get used to the timing at all! Haha~ Gotta wake up early in the morning, and then will get sleepy in the afternoon. Felt like closing my eyes for a rest. Haha~ Went alone for lunch. One person did ask me if I know where to go for lunch, and I replied that I know. She didn't ask if I wanted to join them but I also didn't ask her if I could join them. Oh ya, this lady, V, who approached me was quite nice. She's worried that I did not bring a brolly as it was raining at that time during lunch, she offered me her brolly. Thanks a lot~ Since I was alone, plus it was raining, I skipped my lunch for the day! Yeah!

On this very first day of work, I was being told that I would "belong" to two person; meaning I need to help to do the job for two accountants. In the morning, I'll "belong" to J, and afternoon will be V. I was like, a bit shocked. Haha~ Cannot imagine how to help two person. In the end, I'll complete J's work halfway, and then proceed to help V. Of course, it will end it being halfway done too. Haha~ Gotta speed up my work already. Oh mine...

Day 2

Similar to day 1, just that I had my lunch today. Haha~ I went to buy one big pau, sit somewhere outside the office building and eat. I think that's when I got to know that Christopher will be joining me soon. Haha~ Happy~

Met my IPP senior during lunch time. Haha~ Long time no see her already. Quite happy to see her again. Arranged to meet for lunch the next day as she knew I'm lunching alone. Haha~

Day 3

Nothing unusual for the day, except V's on leave; which means I only need help one person today. But I think those data entry type of job I still need to do for V as I think C.Y. (their senior, I supposed) had got the job over from her. Just that lesser work to be done.

Day 4

V's still on leave. Thus been helping out with J. Happy for the day as I had EILEEN as my lunch partner! Haha~ Very happy~ Long time never see her too. Some time back we said want organise an EMRS outing, in the end I think because we don't know what to do or where to go for the outing, the outing was not being out into action. Haha~ Anyway, glad to see her. Same old her. Haha~ Thanks, Eileen! Thanks for making my day! Haha~ Exaggerating?

Day 5

V's still on leave. No lunch partner, thus don't feel like going lunch. Thus when it's lunch time, I took a rest at my table. Took out my phones and played some games. When asked by C.Y. why I'm not going lunch, I told C.Y. that I don't want to eat alone, thus not going. So C.Y. asked if want to join him not, and I replied that I don't want to go. When being asked, "you sure?" I began to think again because I know I'm hungry, just that I don't want to lunch alone. I pondered for a few seconds and decided to go. Haha~ So indecisive. Every time when being asked "you sure?" I'll stop and think again. Haha~

Poor C.Y. for trying to find topics to talk. You know what, I'm a girl of few words. Haha~ Haven't finish my sentence yet! Girl of few words when I'm with someone I'm not familiar with as I get "warmed up" very slow. Can see that C.Y. already tried to come up with topics. Poor thing..

Well, at least I've got a lunch partner for the day. Haha~ Christopher's joining me soon, so no more worries about lunch! Haha~ Woo~

Job scope

Maybe I didn't mention very clearly what I've been doing for this job of mine. Basically is data entry, filing, preparing cheques, preparing quick cheque deposits and writing of pay order. More or less the same everyday. Been doing quite slowly as I'm worried that I might make mistakes somewhere, especially when keying data into the accounting systems. Still trying do faster in order to complete the tasks on hand faster. Still learning. =)

sorry..

Guys, so sorry that I had not been reading your blogs ever since I've started working. I've not even on my laptop from the day I've started working.

I'll read all your blog during weekends, okie? I'll also update you guys on my first week of work. =)

Been waiting for next Monday to come as I'll have a lunch partner soon! Haha~ Yea! I'm alone for lunch. Cannot blame them for not asking me to join them also since I also didn't open my mouth to ask if I can tag along.

But I do feel weird if were to join them, around 4 or 5 people since I don't know them at all! Except one of them, the one whom I'm helping out with. You know, it just feel so awkward having lunch with a big group of "strangers". Most probably they'll only talk to you awhile, after which they'll proceed with their topics. And you (me) will sit down there, listening to their chit-chats with a blurry mind as you don't know what they talking about at all! Haha~ If were to go with 1 or 2 people, I'm still okie with it.

Next week Christopher will be joining the same company as me, so I'm not ALONE anymore! Haha~ That's why I told Christopher that I'm very happy and am waiting for him. Haha~ No other meaning... Must make myself clear, if not his girlfriend will come bash me up. Haha~ Kidding~

Update you guys more in the later part then. Tired already so I'll go have my sleep first, okie? Haha~ Night~~

*yawn*

stress!! help me please!!

Argh! Still feeling so stressed! Still worried if tomorrow's work will be a good experience not.

The contract stated that wearing a skirt is compulsory from Monday to Thursday with pants allowed only on Friday. Guess what? I've searched high and low, but only found one skirt. Haha~ That's the skirt which I wore for prom night during sec 4. Oh mine!

My agent was unable to contact the person in charge, so I was told to wear pants on my first day and see how first. If they were to complain, then I've got no choice but to wear skirt. Which means I need to go and buy skirt and wear for just 2 months! What a waste of money! No choice. Sigh... Hope that they won't mind a temp staff wearing pants instead of skirt. I'm only a temp! I'll still be wearing formal wear, just that it's not a skirt as my bottom.

I've made up my mind to wear pants tomorrow and see how it goes. I think I'm gonna get scoldings from them bah. So worried now. Plus bad experience(s) on accounting job, I'm now so scared, worried and stressed! I really don't know what to do.

*pray hard that tomorrow will be fine*

Already informed one of my friends that I might need to call her up tomorrow. Still so stressed up now. Wanted to break down, but didn't. Maybe if I were to cry out now, I might feel better? Not sure..

Gotta wake up at 6am in the morning for 2 months! Back to the same building which I did my IPP. Wondering if I would met some of my IPP seniors not. Haha~

Nephew's not coming home tonight, feel even worse. If I got my nephew by my side, can at least make me forget about my work tomorrow. At least I can play with me (though he'll make me angry lah, haha~). Nothing to do now makes me think about tomorrow. The phobia is there, and it doesn't seems to go away easily. Been telling myself that I'll work and buy things for my nephew. Haha~ Doesn't seems to work.

Really~ Help!! Somebody please counsel me! Psycho me! Tell me it's gonna be alright!

*sigh* x infinity

Oh mine! Going crazy soon... Why why why?! Coward me! Just work as a temp accounts assistant can also make me so scared. How?!

Maybe I should change my career path to teaching pre-school kids or toddlers. Haha~ Since I find it enjoying to play with my nephew. No stress at all! Haha~

Argh!!! STRESS!!! STRESS!!! STRESS!!!

I want my NEPHEW!!

fear =/

Haha~ A friend of mine called me to ask if I'm looking for a job. Of course I replied "Yes!". He told me he got a job which can earn me $x/hour and asked me to call his agent if I wanted to take up. Frankly speaking, I couldn't recognise his voice during his first call, and left me wild guessing who he is. Finally, while feeding my nephew, I realised who he is. Haha~ He's Yao De! Haha~ He used another phone to call me, thus I didn't know that it was him who called. =/

When he asked me to call his agent from R.Express (don't wanna mention the full name here), I realised is the same agent as mine. Haha~ Thus my agent called me back after a while, and said that after going one round, he's back again. Haha~ So coincidental! What a small world it is. Haha~

*it's a small world after all*
*it's a small world after all*
*it's a small world after all*
*it's a small small world*

Well, a bit of reluctance to work, especially as an Account Assistant. Maybe due to bad experience(s). No choice since I'm going to be an Accountant in the future, so I need to conquer my fear and win this battle. Slowly at a time, I mean.

If shortlisted, I'll be starting work on next Monday at Raffles Place I think. Wa~ Suddenly realised I got no nice nice formal wear for work at that type of place. Thus, I planned to buy a few pieces of nice nice formal top (hopefully I can as there is money constrain).

Omg! Still got a fear actually. Can totally feel it when accounting job is being mentioned to me. I MUST WIN!! If not, how am I going to be an Accountant next time? Yes! Jia you! Haha~

money?

*sigh*

So much to be said, but don't know what to say. When will they ever learn to be parents?! My nephew is like my son like that. Baby-sitting him most of the time.

Wanted to go out, but whenever I came to think about my mum having to look after him on her own if I were out, it will hold me back. Maybe that's one reason why I prefer to slack at home without a work till now.

Truth is I need MONEY! Wanting to lessen the burden of my dad. He's the only one supporting the family. So pitiful also. Supporting TWO families at a time. Still need to pay the housing loan, utilities etc. Plus my nephew's expenses! Wa~ That's quite a lot, you know?!

Oh well... That's what I called "LIFE". Imagine if I can get into uni?! That's gonna be a bomb! I need to work to get my financing man. But... Sigh..

Many things to say, but I think better not. =/

updated my nephew's blog

Just finished uploaded some photos on the nephew's blog for the second entry. Well~ Still trying to figure out the problem I've encountered when using the blogskin for his blog. Sigh~

You see.. When I upload the video, there will be a "copy" or "image" of the video being showed after the video. I'm trying to get rid of it, but still don't know how. Argh! That thing is making me mad! That's why I've not been updating that blog.

While I'm trying to solve that problem, I'm also looking for other blogskin which will not have this problem with the videos (alternative). Haha~

How I wish I can create my nephew's very own blogskin. Haha~ I'm an IDIOT in this IT. Wahaha~
