:OOO

Full day of lessons in our training wear. The shoes hurt like a motherfather bish. Blisters maaannnn. Need to get new black pants with belt loops. Laughed at the saluting role play especially the walk at Orchard part. So funny. Found out that there's an SW senior in the same class! :O He came up to me and asked if I was from SW. Apparently we were both in SB but he graduated in 2011. I don't recognize him at all. Hahaha. Another full day of lessons tomorrow. Kinda looking forward to Friday. Quite lepak and meeting the friends for movie! Yay. Being a civil servant is such a headache sometimes. So many rules and morals to adhere to. Lol

First day!

First day of training which is till 14th August. Apparently we will all most probably be attached to Woodlands Checkpoint which is good news to me. Woot. Was early but kinda 'late' because I missed the bus. Almost didn't get off at the right stop because idk why but I got off anyways. Made a friend otw to the place. Went in and almost everyone was there. So awkward, I didn't dare look at any of their faces. Saw Sa's friend and surprise! A familiar person from secondary school. She waved at me first and I didn't make any connection till lunch when I took a good look at her and was like "EHHHHH". Well, at least I wasn't as invisible in secondary school as I thought I was. Hahahha. Boring first day. Mostly briefings about random stuff that I'll probably forget soon. (now) Uniform measurement tomorrow and going to the HQ so hopefully I get to have lunch with the GE peeps first because it's nearby. Fingers crossed! I don't miss GE...

12 more hours!

Last day at GE. It's done guys. 3 not bad months. 3 months of typing letters, folding letters, sending cheques, blue paper, case IDs and checking signatures. It's over. Hmm. I still remember the first day of work which was so mothereffin' boring that I wanted to quit after that lol. But JZ and I persevered on and after being given lots of work, I started getting into the groove of things. Honestly, I do like office jobs only if I have work to do. If not, the day passes by ever so slowly. Another thing that made the past 3 months quite a blast is the people I met. Working with friends really makes time so much more enjoyable and pass by in a blink of an eye. The office people are really very nice and it wasn't dull at all listening to their weird convos. Hahaha. So recap today. Arrived at work like any other morning. Did the cheques until lunch. The haze was horrible in the afternoon. PSI was around 400 and most would rather stay indoors. The 6 of us were th...

Cleaannnn

So yesterday, I wasn't given any new work because I had to clear the stack of case IDs. I think Jo was a bit irritated by Christy's kanchiong-ness because she was like "All backend primary". Lol. Of course everything was a jumbled up mess. Had to match the cheques with the letters, the old payer with the new payer and other shit. Some random shit turned up and I'm like "Whaaattttt." A lot of the cheques were missing letters and some of the letters were missing cheques. Whatever. Passed them all to Sze Yan lol. So now my desk looks so freakin' clean like the first day. Since the haze is terrible, we flirted with the idea of ordering pizza but that fell through because by the time we decided it was already too late as the delivery took an hour. Braved the haze and went out to buy lunch, this time with the two guys. Ate in the pantry. The AVP always comes in when we're eating and I think she was surprised that we were eating together. Probably w...

2 years of my life

Went to MND building in the morning to sign the contract for my new job. Almost got lost because I was reading the map and it stated that I was far away lol. Kept walking towards the main road when I looked up and yay, MND. Was early so I sat around in the lobby before going up. The lifts are so gd confusing because it doesn't stop at every level. Luckily there was a guy there who went into the office too. Waited a while before the person came. There was this other guy there with me. She explained the terms, rules and whatever legal shit that I don't understand but pretend to. Signed many times and my signature was a bit different every time. Hahaha. The whole process took half an hour and when I was done, I had signed 2 years of my life away. Let's hope this thing works out k. Again, the confusing lifts. Got into one that only stopped at level 2 I think so I got out with the person who went out at level 4 and continued down the stairs. Was early so I went to Bugis ...

Ho-hum

Nothing exciting happened today. Sat down when LHL came and gave me work. She suddenly asked me, very seriously, "What do you like to eat?" Of course forever awkward Ain was stunned and my mind went blank. So I asked why. Then she asked where I like to eat and I replied that we went to different places every day. Then she finally asked what my favourite snack is which is duh, chocolate. Then I laughed because I'm such a spazz. She then nodded then went away. Saw her go to the AVP but idk if it's related to whatever she just asked lol. I'm expecting a chocolate cake but if not, any high class chocolate also caaaaannnnn (read in AVP's nasally voice haha). Skali they neh gimme anything then I paiseh. (Ah Lian speak yo) Bittersweet... Oh yeah, almost forgot about the stuff I need to bring tomorrow. Thank goodness I have passport sized pictures and found my BC. Hopefully I can find my way to the place tomorrow lol. 3 and a half more days...
