2007 so far..
i haven't blogged in ages, possibly half a year? and i haven't come here in ages too, so was kind of surprised to see the new template. but it's nice! and refreshing! so scenic, so like deb. and the flowers somehow remind me of xiao gui..life without school has been rather different. i'm not sure if i prefer it. come to think of it, i don't quite miss school yet. yeah i did enjoy having frens around for almost half the day everyday, and not having to decide what to wear each day and worry about having worn it 2 days earlier, but there's a part of the JC memory that still saddens me and makes me bitter, a raw wound that is easily provoked and brings tears to my eyes. didn't even know i cld get so emotional. i guess we discover more about ourselves each day..shan't dwell into it here.
spent my first few days of this year hanging around a dermatologist, trying not to be too much of an obstruction. felt rather awkward and out of place at first i didn't even know where to put myself when there were no patients. also got pretty faintish at the sight of an open wound and thot i'd never do medicine cos i simply cldnt take that aspect. realized it just took some time to get used to.
got my first official job at a law firm. glad that i managed to get a classmate who was also looking for a job to come with me. made the job much more interesting. with someone to talk to each day, really helps. must say that i found it interesting, to find out how things work in a law firm, the legal procedures to buying properties. my summary is, they like to do tonnes of paperwork. they like to sound cheem by removing all the punctuations from the entire paragraph. the pple there were really nice tho. there was this whole row of secretaries sitting outside our room and they are terribly amusing sometimes. thot the working environment was rather pleasant, except for the high stress level. u actually see some of em running down the corridors trying to catch a certain delivery timing. office politics didn't show up too much, at least not within a month. met a few more contract staff there too. there's this gal from acjc and another from rj. they came together and are church frens. had dinner with them the last day. they're pretty frenly. amusingly, the one from rj only noes deb as the one who had some interesting story going on in sch *grinz*
spent longer then expected at the law firm cos we kept extending. in the end it was about a month. super happy when i got my first pay cheque tho, and rather pleased they don't have cpf. and they generously gave us transport and meal allowance when we did OT past 8pm.
actually still got quite a lot more to rattle about regarding my 2007 so far, but i'm too tired le.. i'll continue some other time..
