I'm starting to like my internship more. Which student's internship period coincides with some fraud uncovering? Although I am not directly affected, I still part of the aftermath.
For those who are concerned about Societe Generale, especially Angie, rest assured the Bank is still doing fine. Have confidence in the management!

3.5 weeks more!

I love my Sister

The amount of workload I have these days is highly correlated to the stock prices, that is, super low now. I am easily worn out lately that I harbour this selfish thought and hope that the market carries on in this pace, at least till tomorrow.

Might be the weather, I felt so listless the whole of yesterday. I wanted to walk around abit after work but my legs carried me home instead. I bathed Goldy, had a little dinner then surf the net aimlessly. seriously not in the mood to do anything.

I was reflecting on the Theory of Happiness thingy I read in Nineteen minutes just before I went to bed. Lewis, in the book, said that "Happiness is U-shaped. People were happiest when they were very young and very old."
I wondered if I past the trough or I'm still stuck in it or I'm on my way into it. I pictured my exchange, pinning hopes that when I came back, I would have thought through many things and be optimistic enough to accept my life. Seoul is currently my end point, I can't plan anything after that period now.

Feeling so sucky the whole time, I lazed on bed when Sarah came back with a huge bag of presents for ME!! My sweet sister bought me some very useful stuffs to bring over to Seoul. I am seriously deeply touched. Even though I'm going to be alone over there, I know I'll remember her, and many other people.

Here's what she got for me: A cutlery set with knife cos she knows I have diffulties chewing on tough meat, a pair of chopstick, a water dispenser and a mug heater, i think. I'm supposed to leave my coffee on it and connect it to my laptop USB so that my drink will remain warm as I study.


check out my Purple spectacle. I gonna get a lime green or hot red one next!!




okays...There's mega news happening in my company now. Keep track of it.

My second full working week is gonna past soon.

I didnt seem to dread this week cos I have more stuff to do at work, started my new book, finally forced myself to practise abit of Korean and I met with with people I've been wanting to.


So on monday, Meiyan and I met up with Chris and Keris to share with us their time in Seoul. Oh my!! They got me really excited! I was quite lost when I found out a few days ago that I'll be arriving before the dorm is ready. The thought of looking for a hotel, travelling to meet up with Meiyan and moving from the hotel to school really daunted me, cos I will be handlig all these on my own. Luckily Keris faced the same issue last term and reassured me with her plans. Looks like I gotta learn to be independent soon!

Thursday. Met Meiyan again to go to school. I miss school.seriously. And I really enjoy catching up with people I hardly see.

Waiting for the day to end. I'm dining with my department later.

As the clock strucked 6pm last Friday, I packed my stuff and hustled out of the office to meet the Econs people.The end of my first full working week, no OTs for me.

Had dinner at Kim Gary before we head to st. James to continue our updates and gossips. Seems like everyone had an exciting holiday. I feel so dull. I really wanna add vibrance into my life but I'm just so de-energised. I'm penning down our gathering today because i wanna forever remember that Meiyan is my 2nd girlfren who bought me beer.


Weekend was good.
I was glued to Heroes and I finished the whole of season 1 in 2 days. No wonder Meiyan was so addicted last term. I realise I still have a load more shows to complete before heading off to Seoul. Prison break comes next.


Today is another long day where trades is so so so low. I suppose I'm changing department soon. Hopefully everything will be fine. Seriously, I missed school. I rather packed myself with assignments and projects.


Meetin Meiyan and the Korean exchange people later. I wish it's 6 now.

Heya!
After checking up countless agencies, I finally booked my ticket! I am so EXICTED though it cost me a bomb!! But there's no such thing as scrimping in my dictionary. I should earn more instead.
One big load off my mind. Now the next undesirable chore is to submit my online worksheet. I'm still procrastinating. I hope some kind soul would complete it for me.

One by one, everyone's leaving. Jayne left last month. Harvey left on Monday. Mok is flying off today. Soon it will be Khalid's and Samuel's and the econs people. I'm quite sad, I don't know why. Good thing I'm leaving too. At least, it feels better than being left behind. But I'll miss home!! oh ho. I'm so inconsistent!

6 weeks into my internship! I can't believe I actually OT-ed, not once but thrice!! I'm comtemplating swtiching department soon but there'll be more OT there! Working life doesn't suit me. I feel sleepy all the time. And days past unknowingly.

The good thing about starting a new year is that I can start using my new organiser. And I got 2 this year, one from Sarah and one from Jan.
I started using a scheduler since I was 15 when Mum got me a really nice one from Universal Studio. Now that my memory is failing, I have to rely on it so that I can keep track of stuff I need to do and have done in the whole year. Something I noticed from my past 2 organisers is that I forsake it during the holidays so almost half of both are blank.

I havent been doing much at work for the past 3 weeks or so cause trades have been so so little. My colleague has been telling me that there will be more to come after Christmas...then after New year...and now, she said next week. Seriously, I really would like to help and learn more but..hahaha.

So after lunch, I will fill up my organiser abit, add a touch of life into my boring life. Then I'll flip through "World Trade and Payment" or IE before I lend my book to Zeyi. Then I'll continue with Grande Expectations. My memory is really worsening. I had to take down the names of people mentioned in the book cause the author cited so many. I wonder if anyone does such things like me.

7.5 weeks to Korea. I'm getting stressed now. Too many things left unsettled. Good gracious, I've completely left the online worksheet out of my mind. shucks. Gotta apply for VISA, constantly check the important dates for bidding, start installing stuff into my laptop, decide on what to bring, find out how to 'tt' money( that's how ms ting said), insurance stuff...I can't imagine a longer list.

I began abit of self-taught-Korean lessons last night, starting with numbers cauase that's what I learnt during my first Jap class 4 years back. A pity I don't have much determination else I would have probably completed advanced Jap.hmm...I should just focus on getting Ko-reee-ann right now. I'm sure I'm going to mix it up with Cantonese and Malay and Jap.

okays..gonna start decorating my organiser now!!
There's an annoying voice ringing at the back of my head everyday!
