Life as a Newbie
I miss being a freshie, yes but this is nothing like that at all. i repeat, NOTHING.
It's being thrown around like a ball yet at the same time trying hard to be a sponge and soak everything in. So it's very much like being a spongeball.
Well, i have to say this is seriously....................what i expected. Although of course experiencing something you expect in your mind on foresight is like imagining pain and then feeling it - still damn pain right.
I know absolutely zero (possibly negative) about cars - tech specs, horsepower, torque, pricing, design, and many other ridiculously technical stuff - as well as configuring a website - what ads to put on, which companies to work with, blahblah - and i'm gonna be handling all these within this, lemme see, 180 or so days!
However, something in my inner sadistic mind says that i am enjoying the rough now. This is what i need to know and is gonna be really very useful in my line of work soon enough. And cars, oh cars, what a highly unintimate topic amongst the average girl..i guess it wouldn't hurt to know more about them..plus they really look so gorgeous in the showroom! I have never appreciated cars the way i did today when my 'mentor' took me on a brief tour to see all the cars on display. Usually for me, anything that has an engine or battery device just has to look good on the outside and it's good enough for me. Oh well, that sure is gonna change!
So, this is just Day 2..i'm exhausted trying to change gears from my usual 11am-midnite day shift to a 7am-11pm one. Less sleep, less tv and less slacking around the couch..i already miss that! :(
I'm just glad the people here are nice :)
Right, here comes Day 3! Aza Aza Fighting! (haha too many korean dramas lately)
"I'm ready, i'm ready, i'm ready....for work!!" :)

Home Quarantine :(
The 4 symptoms of H1N1:
- Fever
- Cough
- Sorethroat
- Running nose
Qn: Which of the above do you NOT have?
Ans: 2 (for now)
Well, that was yesterday at least..the morning fever did go down after the panadols but came back full force (38.3 deg) after 5 hours. But it went down completely this morning after my Ahma's super-effective LingYang or Deer's horn drink. Which led to a full night of perspiring between my sheets despite the aircon on full blast. Hardly a night I'd want to remember. So all i'm left now is the sorethroat; my nose isn't dripping anymore either.
But the doc specifically told me to STAY AT HOME. So much for my first day at work. Now i have to miss 2 days of it on MC. Hmm..usually something like this - being able to pon work is good news, but the problem is i haven't even started work!! (There goes that first impression)
Yep..well i'm not in the mood to blog much now..maybe later after i get some chow.
BRB then!
