And it's March already!
Wow... how time flies. I haven't been blogging for the longest time! And things have just zoomed by after CNY.
Well, for one, I only got my com fixed a day before CNY. Then, after CNY, I was homeless for a week cos my aunt was in town. I gave her my room to stay while I bunked in with a friend. I didn't mind... but her timing could've been better. After all, it was also my first week of work.. that was tough!
And yeah... work... hmm.... thing have been ok so far. It's been a month actually. In essence, the exposure that I am getting here is really really good. Nothing that I have experienced before. Photo shoots, vetting press releases, media queries and editorials. Looking over proposals, organizing workshops, tying up with partners (I only hate the part that I have to source for 3 a month shit.... like some sort of quota). I also don't like the admin part.. My goodness.. filing can kill!!! Everything has to be so neat and tidy and organized. Not exactly my best trait. And unfortunately, I can't talk on MSN as freely as I used to.. i miss chatting with my friends. Hard to chat when my table is the first one when you step into the department and it's next to my boss' room. It also doesn't help that my back is facing the entrance.
But otherwise, things have been good and i think i am coping ok. Just the other day, my assistant manager (whom i report to) was asking how I am settling into the job. I told her i was still trying to catch up. I also took the opportunity to ask her how I am faring: ok? Up to expectations? Thankfully, her reply was positive. So that is good.
So that's that about my life so far... till the next time!
