Day 1
the first day of work in Studeo Grafix wasnt wat i expected. The people there were friendly though... i figured they would be people with no life. OT everyday and stuff. over work and no pay. sigh...
says Jamie to May: "yeah i think she could use a lil make up" *rolls eyes*
Lip yong has been helping me alot around the general things, what i should do and all, creating accounts here and there. a really helpful guy.
almost half of the company brought me out for lunch. at oriental seafood. they asked me wat do i want to eat. i said i dontknow. says Kim "you should know your answers and make decisions ya"
sigh....
got home at 7.20pm. reached ther before 9am
Day 2
Siew Yi is a really nice girl. she helped me with alot of things tho she is not frm my divsion, she made me feel more welcomed. not that the people from my division is not friendly. its just that she is new too. she had been ehre for one month plus only. felt like i havce company there and that im not alone.
today's work was really frustrating. i got the directions. did what i need to do. found out that what i did was wrong. ==( i could cry! Kim says "next time need to check with us if u don understand ya? we dont want a cat if we requested a dog" ==( ==( ==( i did do it right. i guess i did.i understood the intructions. i did the wrong thing. and i had to re do it again. n do it again. it was the format. then it was the contents, the capital letters or small letters, every comma n full stop. then it was the arrangements. ==( luckily May said i could continue to do it tmr. if not i could cry ==(
says Jamie "u shoud feel privilledged that here they never accept interns before u know. you are the first ever"
somehow that's not making me feel any better.
Miky is a really nice division leader. he keeps talking to me and stuff. n he likes to smile. alot. which automatically makes the people around smile too. n take off some weights off my shoulder.
i asked Lipyong: "wat time do u normally go home?"
"not sure lo... finish work ma go home lo. earliest for me is 8.30" he says.
"what time did u go back yst then?"
"yst? 11+ pm"
and we have to check in at 9 every morning.
dad says "they have no life"
got home today at 8.15 pm. got ther before 9am
Day 3
morning's briefing i couldnt catch up. again ==( Jamie said: you need to be moe attentive ya...
==( ==( ==(
Siew Yi has has been helping me alot today. even tho some are just general topics and stuff, it makes me feel better
says Kim to May: " book a day next week or something, to have a sharing session from the CW division with Jo to talk to her and share with her how raw you were when u first came here, how much u've learnt etc. it cant be tmr cause we would be very busy"
today is a really really busy day. time shot by like crazy. alwys meeting dealines.
says Kim: "you should learn how to manage your time properly ya?"
sigh... i have time managing problems. i should learn to write this blog post faster. i think it took me almost 20 mins. it is not a good sign.i have to get it done it 10 to train my time managing skills. sigh..
not complaining on what they comment about me but... sigh... i don know wat to say.
dad asked me to call Mr. Mark to check and see if izit normal to be like this. extra working hours and stuff. he says they shouldnt treat me like that as im just an intern. i say, interns are meant to be tortured. dad says, "they don pay u the money to torture u" hmmm...
got home today some time near 9. got ther before 9am
Day 4
life here isnt that bad after all. the only thing to complain is the working hours. thats all. i went home around 10 something. not cause i worked till 10. but i went to gurney after that to meet my parents. no appetite at all for dinner. maybe cause i had an apple at around 4pm. had salad at aroung 8pm. i finished my work. what im assigned to do, and... i dont feel good. cause its not normal to go home feeling all relieved and all. cause i've got nothing to carry on the next day of work.
Day 5 - Jamie "next time try to meet the given deadlines" ==( it was only 15 mins late. i tried my best n even skipped my lunch ==(
i have nothing else to say about today. the happiest minute of the day is when i can walk to the punch card machine n slot in my card. hearing the 'ke-chak' is as blissful as hearing myself slurping laksa noodles.
