First blog in 2008

Friday, July 25th, 2008

"Where the hell are you? Never blog for so long ….." My fren asks me tis question….
First of all, I am not in the hell =) Secondly, I am just too lazy and busy to blog and many other excuses…..

Have doing my internship for 8 months….so this blog will b sharing my internship experience lar…..but depend on the mood….if i have mood to write grandma story, then i’ll write….=)

8 months of internship….working like hell…..everyday work almost 10 hours…..
There was even one time.. I worked from Friday 9am till Saturday 3pm….30 hours??? No lar, I had my lunch break and dinner break plus went home for 2 hours shower plus another 1 hour sleeping….Therefore, I had worked for around 24 hours!!!!!Amazing rite, an intern worked until like tis….Somemore i cannot claim OT….But being a kind soul, I just b patient….patieNT…..patIENT…..pATIENT…..PATIENT….till one day I exploded……
so there was one day there was an intern gathering in the main office and I was requested to do a presentation of what had I done so far….Haha too bad, instead of presenting what had I done so far during my internship, I shoot the company….how bold am I(-.-!!!)

When i ask them for OT, they give me the reason of intern cannot claim OT. So during the presentation, I shoot them lar

"Well, intern cannot claim OT because of company policy but is there any company policy saying that intern cannot work more than how many hours??? I really had good experience here. In the university, I never work 10 hours everyday but I work almost 10 hours here everyday. In the university, even I cannot finish my project, I can still manage to sleep for a few hours. But during my internship, due to the time constraint, I manage to sleep only one hour which is really a GOOD experience to me…." and the complaint keeps on……
After the presentation, I told myself that i’ll going to fail my internship ady lar. But I left with no choice bcoz I really cannot tahan ady =)  After the presentation, the head of the HR talked to me for almost 45 mins….Well, the conversation is….(private and confidential =P)shh……

Then they change the structure and saying tat intern can claim OT….I was like so happy…haha…..my colleagues were so jealous of me becoz the rate is so high……
wow, I am rich now!!! Nono, the money need to keep for the future lar in case I need the money in the future mar. If not, u’ll borrow me money mer? The ‘u’ here means anyone who read this blog, not to any specific person ar……=P (suspend…)

So the hard work actually pays off which I always believe in..Haha…besides that, I have a bunch of very cute n nice colleagues….Still remember during my presentation for the second visit, I said out the following statement……

"They are really nice to me. They helped me to prepare for the presentation. They provided me the slides template, buy me the shirt and pen for presentation…" which made my supervisor laughing at me…
Yes, they deserve the credit. My team member buy me a parker pen and the other teams’ members buy me 2 shirts..(one long sleeve and one T-shirt)…besides that, I also received a lot of ‘benefits’….’benefits’???
1. if there is any nice food, I was the first one to be informed =)
2. if there is any outing, I was also one of the group =)
and many many lar

Still remember there was one time, we had a project dinner…..There was a lucky draw during the dinner….Suddenly, I heard my name….It is not tat I get any lucky draw lar….just that one of my colleagues shouting my name becoz she is hoping that I’ll get the prize….wah…touching man……

There were also some incidents which I never forget….the incidents were …(private and confidential again =P )shh…….

Lazy to put the photo here…not bcoz they are private and confidential =P…but just the internet is too slow and it takes time…

I oso study during my internship as well…take some finance course as just wan to check do I really like finance tat much…..so now I have taken insurance test and mutual fund test…so for anyone who wan to buy insurance n mutual fund, can come to me ya….

u might b asking why i am so busy and still wan to take the tests…I have my own reasons and u can just interpret watever u like….bcoz of money…becoz of wat…..I won’t tell u =P

tat’s where am i n wat i’m doing for my internship….I have my own vision and mission and I think it is my right to design how my life is going to be….well, u can comment n complain but i am too stubborn to change…so better save ur breath for lecturing me…..better lower down the risk of getting high blood pressure =)

Will not be blogging so often….currently doing my final year…..and it is really hectic in the final year….the final year project…..the courses….the career goal….my vision and mission…..
and somehow find that seem like everyone noe wat i’m doing and dun really like tat kind of feeling…feel like being monitored by ppl……somehow got tis feeling lar….dun noe y oso……
