+ work and everything else
hmm. was a pretty bad day at work today. woke up late, missed the bus, missed my bus stop and ended up somewhere at lau pa sat, and i almost lost my way finding my workplace. then ended up with shitty work the whole morning...
work's just abt the centre of my life now, and everything else revolves around it. that's really sad, but well, it helps me live a more normal life.. not to mention the pay =) there are really all kinds of pple at the workplace.. thankfully i haven't met a backstabber, but still. some pple are so obviously bootlicking the uppers that u'd wonder how they can stand themselves. some pple just dump u their work and then relax, chitchat on the phone. others ask u to help them (it's not as if my job there is to help them, but my boss), and then get so upset and mean when there's any discrepancies (esp since it was cos the shanghainese can't understand me -_-). and the worst: pple who dump their work on u and relax, but yet don't bother to find out ur name. -_- and it's shitwork- filing. ugh. precisely why they rather pass it on.
anyway, my immediate colleagues are nice =D v funny pple! feel abit out of place and foreign still, not to mention quite useless, but i hope things will get better =) the location's pretty nice, near to club street and amoy street and all the other rustic places =D if only i have the time to walk around.. the long hours aren't really killing me yet, despite OTs one every few days =) quite like work =) except that it provides my parents with the perfect excuse to force me to stay at home more. >.<
haven't had the time to do much this whole first week of work, but i hope i'll be able to take time out for my jap classes.. and shopping =D i need more working clothes! so far, my pathetic wardrobe consists of only 3 colours: black, white, and exactly the same shade of beige for 3 different pieces of clothing. sigh. -_-
so far, that's it for now. and oh yeah, my dad just mentioned casually that i should save up and take a break in melbourne end of this yr =D the problem is, i definitely can't go away then, cos the person i'm helping will be on maternity leave from nov, so i have to take her place for 3 months.. think i'll be free from march onwards =D hopefully!
