weekdays

yawn.. my 2nd sat at work..so exhausted...as i haven't been sleeping well.. I tend to wake up in the middle of night..i have no idea y?!!

yawn.. it was mistake on my part for wanting to go to tekka...i had to feel the fever ya.but the journey itself cost me to squirm..45mins to little india?!!!It was already dark when we finished our dinner.. btw saras we went to Gokul?!!!hahahahahh
It was such a quickie deepavali shoppin ever!!!It was almost 10 by the time i reached home..crap!! JE is just sooo away from everything... as my colleague commented.. its soo"china"

Its such a whole different world here. Tanjong pagar was more livelier & colourful.. in many aspects..people are just too reserved too. Im still getting used to the work culture here.Now i understand how a foreigner or a foreign educated person feels.It sucks.. at times...Why isit soo hard for people to come out of their shell & interact to others..sigh..I even my saw MD & manager interacting in chinese...if only colette to see that..heheheheh..As i was warned..corporate world is jus soo different.. lets see whether its my cup of tea..

Anyways i was at NTU yesterday to brand my company.NTU is soo lonely & FAR....The response was.. how shall i put it... POOR... at least the food wasn't soo bad..kekekek.. the lousy part was, we had to carry the stuffs back n go back to office to work!!!sob..

okie.. me need to get back to work...i guess... its soo nice to have so little people here...excited to meet the lovely ladies later..

(I must go to tekka this week..)

Vijayadasami

Since it was vijayadasami i bought my usual stuffs to see my teacher & get her blessings.:)

I had t say that she was beaming with so much of joy & laughter. Looks like she received great response from people who watched her students performance!!! She praised us too...yeah...

I apologised to her as i couldnt tie sari but she brushed it aside & replied that she totally understood my prediacment. To my utter surprise, she replied that she was soo jubliant when she realised that i rushed over for the performance. Tears just welled up in her eyes.....hahahha.. i was literally flying man....

I taut she was upset with me but infact she was immensley glad that took great efforts to rush over?!!!Ahhhhhhhhhh.. what a great feeling na? Sunday was THE only day where i had some rest but my laundry is monting over my laundry bin. Ops!!

Deepavali is just 2 weeks away & i still haven gone over Tekka..Shit!! I need to bask into the deepavali mood man... Me goin for lunch at 130pm..the clouds look great.. hope its doesnt rain like in the morning...

P.s: Having a hard time uploading my performance video man..watch out for it!:)soooooon...

Navarathiri..

I have been experiencing sleepless nights as i was worried about my performance today. I just couldn't imagine missing it on my yearly performance & miss my friend's too!!:( I was just scared of what my teacher will say...she can be unreasonable & empathetic at the same time...

I had to be at the NLB todat at 830am..as usual lady luck was laughing at me.. there was a big downpour!! I actually drenched myself as i was quite confused with the way with all the rain pouring at me?!!!Imagine me wearing all black (co. t-shirt) & a paper bag scootering around for shelter!!!I can make great comedy at times?!!

Guess what?!! i was punctual & early...I felt it was a good experience as i managed to bond with people whom i don't really get to see at work.nice gals but it sucked as i was the oldest among them?!!shucks?!!I managed to sneak at around 1230pm as the workshop was dragged to 1pm??!!

I dashed for a taxi.. bless the uncle for stopping it...:)My khakis panicked when they saw me in chudithar as it seems that my teacher went ballistic at one of the gal for turning up in salwaar?!I tried to evade from my teacher's eyes..kekekek.. Strangely she dint bother me too.. i did msg her that i will be working.. it will be really sad if she did not understand my predicament as i made the extra efforts to rush down?!!sigh.. teacherai purinthcikeveh mudiyallaiyeh!!sigh...


thats me..will upload the video soon:)

My group performance went quite well.. With a little bit of hiccups here & there. Guys, understand i was feeling a bit jittery about teacher..so it was THE perfect performance..i'll admit to you. I have been feeling really lethargic for this 1 week..

In all im sooooo glad every thing went well without any hitch & thanks for praying fro me?!!:)

My job

I have been hearing things about my workplace..Things that are not so appealing...hmmm...Iwoudl be multi-tasking soon as they are under-staffed. I'm still quite cluless of the things that i require to do. I attended a mtg on my 2nd day, assisted a workshop on my 6th day, conducting a booth next friday & sat?!!weird nah???Im still worried about the project that is goin to be arrowed to me?!!As expected, the people are not as friendly as i expected. There r 3 depts in the office & they seems to be an imaginary line which separates us..strange..they just keep to their dept.. these are the times when i reaaaally miss my ex-colleagues..imagine me NOT talking from 9-6pm???!!preposterous na??hahahahah..i feel so cut off from life...sob..

Im just goin to give myself from 3-6months & see is i really like what i am doing right now. If no, the i shall take this as an experience/course to upgrade myself & move on.

Btw Happy Sarawati & Vijayadasami.. Om Shakthi!!

velai .. velai...

Its been always like this.. i have never enjoyed my first few weeks/months of my working life...

That goes to show how im feelin now....BORING... im was sooo used to chattin with the people around me that i find it totally strange when im left all alone to work all by myself...its just soo quiet there... i almost slept through my first day....zzzz........Unfortunately, msn is banned there!! Can't believe my buddy in a civil sector can actually use msgner while me being in pte sector can't!!

There is nothin much there, except a couple of coffeehouses & fast food joints. Its a gd thing that the library is there:)

Sadly, there aren't any hunks there...not even a ok looking guy..sigh... how sad!!!Only managed to go out with a gay who was nowhere near being pretty!

Dunno how long howm im goin to take to break the ice with them. My manager is planning to intro aka "launch" me next week over the mtg!!!

I just realised that i have loads of work to do.. more than what i was informed during the interview!!!Its gd in a way.. as it won't be monotonous...

Right now my job is turn surf the net...for work i mean!!I would be even heading a project soon.. oh boy!!My post is called Operations officer but im also acting as the customer service + marketing personnel..

I actually attended an outstation meeting on my 2nd day itself!I felt like i was in twilight zone...(just imagine the tune here)too much of info... v. over-whelming...I just flashed my trademark smile & carried out nodding & scribbling notes....which i need to pass it to my manager tomorrow..

I knew my current job will be a total boring place to work..but i took the risk as a challenge & stepped out of my previous work..... a place where i was adored.. i believe..really miss .. them.. sigh.. well i might be going over to ther place next week.. that will be fun!!:)

Im still confused over this coming sat...im not sure whether i will be on time for my performance as i have to rush from work! I was just told that i was alreday pre-booked by some staff to help out in a job fair?!!!So now there is no chance of wearing a sari in the morning..which i was contemplating on...kadavela!!ennai kaapathu pa!!! Hope my teacher understands!!!

Btw Happy Birthday to Me!!:)

My colleagues are implying that its e bad omen..since im leaving... n I SHOULD JUST STAY BEHIND!!!!! hahahahahah....

The bloody safe suddenly gave up on us?!!!!To think i have important documents in it..its locked & spoilt... i would have never in my life believe that this will happen...Something else happened too... which i think its better that i omit here..kekkekek..since its abt my workplace..afterall it has people whom i adore...

Had a great lunch date w the ladies at my workplace today....:) Priya played me out..sigh...but im kool about it... since she is not exactly part of my work kakis..:)

My colleagues are sad about me leaving but i promised that i will drop by every now & then.:)

Oh ya!! i almost forgot to mention this.. after more than a year i actually attended my 2nd HOTYOGA class... thank god it was just 1 hr!!!!!I made a HUGE mistake by having a north thaali at ard 230-3pm with a masala tea!! (fyi that was lilek my brunch?!!)I almost did not take class but i would have to beat myself if i had to miss colette class?!!!!So i psychoed myself and went ahead!!!Personally i felt that i could have done much better if not for the scrumptious lunch?!!!Good thing i survived the class & did not puke?!!!hahahahaha........too bad i couldnt take moteh class tho...

I am feeling exhausted now.. the temperatures soared in class!!U know nothing beats practicing yoga at home...or least a place nearby your house....its just freaking tiring travelling back home?!!sooo loong leh...

Well, tomorrow is my last day here... have to say byeee to mote who did teach me alot of things along the way(i have to admit la!).
