Working during Holiday

I’m leaving my hometown, Ipoh, after a long holiday. I need to go back to UM to have another sem. This holiday, I didn’t totally stay at home(If I did so, I would be bored till die!), I spent a big portion of my holiday to work at KL, to earn some money.

Let’s recall what kind of jobs I involved in this holiday. Wern Yet, Chu Hong and I went to lots of place for interviews, for instances, restaurants, shops, promoter agents and etc.

We went to a training at E-promoter, at that time, I got my first job which is to promote Protex products at Guardian Bukit Bintang for 8 days. But then, I quitted that lame job after 2 days working. I just couldn’t bear with the suffocating atmosphere, boredoms and tiredness. I was supposed to do sampling on sanitizer, but guess what? Sanitizer is not being sold in that outlet! My supervisor asked me to promote other Protex Products, but somehow, it seemed stupid to let customers tried on the sanitizer, then told them it was not being sold there, asked them to purchase another products. WTF. Most of the customers were foreigners, and some of them didn’t even know English or Chinese. I ended up with weak sales in the first two days, then my supervisor called and complained on me, she asked me to be more aggressive(chase customers and keep promoting), walao…if you were customers, would you get annoyed? Well, maybe it was not a suitable job for me, so I quitted.

For weekdays, I worked at Ecoparadise, mostly on customer services. The spa is based on the concept of anti-oxidant which can neutralize excessive free radicals in our body, and hence stabilize our body with immunity boosted. That means when I was working, I actually breathed in the anti-oxidant also, indeed it made me feel healthier and more energetic. It was not a tough job and I had a lot of free time, the manager also treated us so nice, I had quite a lot of free meals during the working period, haha, really need to thank Mrs Wong. I made new friends and meet those customers with severe diseases, I appreciated their will to fight for their lives. It was a really great job that provided learning chances for me, I didn’t regret and perhaps, I would go back to work someday.

I also worked as promoter for Safegg at Wisma Thrifty for 6 days, another tiring job. It was a job to test my patience and ability to eat snake! Well, it was still better than promoting Protex because it was higher paid and more convenience. I didn’t have much constraint so, I usually have chance to eat snake! The egg I promoted is the healthiest, safest and yet, it is the most costly one. Most of the customers stressed on economic products, so they seldom purchased such expensive things, despite how good it was. It was true! For me, it was not really worth it. But anyway, I still need to thank the person who introduced the job for me. Haha…

After a month of hard work, I reached the amount that I targeted to earn. I went back to Ipoh and ready for my trip. So excited! I was able to afford a backpack in Singapore! A memorable one! Hooray!

2nd year..

Wah…Time flies, I have finished 2nd year, now moving ahead to 3rd year. I have also stepped into my golden age, it’s my 21st. Let’s see what I’ve done during my 2nd year and some of the reveals of my thought.

Academic: Err…pretty well? But don’t think that I’m proud of this, I am just satisfied that my hard work was really really paid off and I was really really lucky! Or I can say that it was not a really hard work, maybe I just become more used to the examination system and question pattern. And also, my coursemates have been assisting me all the time, I won’t improve otherwise. So, really want to thank them! Especially for those who ever let me copy assignment…hehe… For the upcoming year, I wish I could be more independent and hardworking, don’t be procrastinating!

GACC: The atmosphere was much better than 13th. I was a publication director, thanks to Chai Jhen, Siow Hoong, and Swee Jiat for their helps. Hopefully the book was not disappointing. And also, for all the MTs, sorry if I’ve done something wrong, I was really enjoyed to work and play with you guys, especially Li hong, Gacc 14 would have been quiet all along without her…haha..more outings coming?

JKPAP/MOHEC: Oo…really sorry that I burst out in that meeting, sorry to my victim, Jo Ee, I was not really in good mood at that time, hope you didn’t mind. MOHEC was the first time organized by us, so there were plenty of mistakes might have happened, nevermind, we learned from mistakes! And I think I’ve handled the account in a quite messy way, and some of the debt I even haven’t collected yet, and yet I don’t plan to do so…sorry la...I fed up with that arrogant girl. (Is she?)

MATB1: Very funny, I was the publication director again, and all my anak biro were my roommates or ex-roommates! Ken, Zen, and Wern Yet, thank you also la, sometimes you guys were quite helpful, but actually I think there were nothing much to help also..haha…anyways, good to have you all. And yet, thanks Jun Yan as a responsible director! Bravo..

CC: Congrats May Fong , Choong Wern and Cheng Leong succeeded in representing CC…We really can see your effort and sincerity. For the CC activities organized, I personally think that it should have partially cut off, it makes us becoming lazier to join, don’t talk about tradition, again and again, it’s not necessary… Anyway, there were some activities which were remarkable, like SF night, Mooncake festival and CNY, I had a lot of fun indeed! Good Jobs for the coor. Wish that CC would be more successful next year!

Friends: There are friends I like or don’t like, but it will definitely remain in secret! Hehe..seriously I don’t like annoying friends and bird friends, nobody does right? I am not the person who can make jokes or being put inside the jokes all the while…I admit that my EQ is a bit low, I might be emotional, but now I’m learning how to control it…and definitely I won’t put on the facebook status to let people know la, maybe before that I would, but I found it helpless and it just will be irritating, so what’s the point? And yet, really thanks for those friends who really treat me as their good friends. I may not be the ideal friend. In my mind, there is always a scale, I will treat a friend as the way he treat me, sounds fair right?

Okay, last but not least, I would welcome my 3rd year with my open arms, let’s see what would happen, a breakthrough? Lol..

最近很free

超旧没写部落各了,不是懒惰,而是觉得没有这个必要。今天突然会写,也只是因为心中的郁闷,有时候真的不懂为什么自己这样废!空闲了又不会好好利用时间,总觉得有东西忙会使自己更有冲劲,更会利用时间。现在太过清闲了,整个人都好像很废,做什么都毫无意义,有东西等着去做的,但自己不肯起步,变得过分懒散!我需要一些东西来做,使自己忙一点,要给自己一点推动力,自己才会变得积极。不懂改天会不会变成工作狂?但愿如此!我希望自己是工作狂,赚多多钱来实现自己的梦想 – 去环游世界,买豪宅美车,让家人感到光荣!哈哈,毕竟还是个梦想啦。。

讲下最近发生的事,两个roommates都在忙,其实自己也有东西忙的,但总是很快就可以settle。所以就每天无所事事,在房间,又没有kaki出街,人缘不好吧,还是自己太挑剔?这样也好,可以帮自己省下钱。哈哈!但是自己这样free,身边的人每天都有节目,不知不觉自己好像被遗弃般,有时还蛮羡慕他们的。原来做真正的lubok是不容易的,除非我有女朋友咯。。有时别人会叫我找个女朋友,但要找到适合的不容易,而且自己还蛮享受单身的生活,这个话题就暂时搁置。但身边的朋友一直在讲着那些关于恋爱的是非,有时真的觉得很sien,看到那些不清不楚的,骂架收场的,为男女朋友而emo的,更sien。可能自己还没感受到,或是自己已有这样的感觉,并已经习惯了?有时候机会已经在眼前,但往往没有去把握,因为还是觉得恋爱真的不能当饭吃啊!蛮肯定的是,我不会是个好的选择,不想害人,哈哈!

最近bodycheck后,才发祥自己的身子出现小状况,要远离油腻的食物,很sien,自己最爱吃的就是煎炸的食物,健康的吃少,不健康的越爱吃,自残!而且还上更半夜才睡,不做运动,自杀式的生活习惯!妈妈每天call来唠叨,自己还是改不了,而且还嫌妈妈烦,不孝!咳,当然懂妈妈是关心我,她是全世界对我最好了,也不懂如何报答她。。惟有读好书,将来有一番作为,只是不懂有没有这样长命啦,做笑。

讲下GACC吧,它在去年年尾就已经落幕了。其实自己本身还蛮喜欢今年的感觉,风格不一样,改革了许多,在juniors的口中,他们都觉得很轻松,很enjoy,没有想象中那么忙。。很开心的,这也代表了十一个MTS的成功!要谢谢lihong和meishan,他们找到的product,我们都拿到很爽,哈哈!当然还有director的‘默默付出’,他真的很犀利,只是低调了少少。GACC MTS 不同的地方是,他们对自己的project都好像不会有很重的feeling,感觉上好像办完了就算,我也是其中之一,不懂这样算好吗?当然有时MTS一起出来玩的时候也蛮爽的,尤其是看lihong发癫!当了半年的GACC publication director,我真的没有后悔,而且‘获益’良多,就好像从下一年起,我们每年都有免费的五星酒店晚餐。

最近真的比较sien啦,希望过后的我能找回当初对生活的热情吧,也要improve一下自己的EQ,因为上次才骂人来。。对了,最近跟roommate买了一样款的新电话,越来越喜欢它,有了它,我就可以随时拍照了!要多谢文业的推荐,还有大奶zen的婆妈。。

早上四点了,KEN已睡到整只猪这样,明天没上课,可以继续废了!晚安!
