i'm so happy!! coz i've made up my mind le. I'm not renewing my contract! 1 more month before my contract expires! well as ger said, there are 2 schools of thought for our 6 months "vacation" before entry to uni.. one. enjoy ur life. two. do something that u think u might wan to do in future. well.. i tried the second option. it's time i leave some months for enjoying. such long breaks will never come again lah.

oh yea, i'll be "parked" into shifts soon. starting from 6th march. SIGHS. shifts = sats and sundays working.. shifts = working from 3 to 11pm... shifts = my rest days on weekdays and cannot meet up with pple who are usually free on weekends. shifts = more stress cos my team leader not arnd to assist me. shifts = more jialat calls coz pple very free at nite, den they got alot of time to argue with u. OH MAN, im not looking forward to that at all.

BUT HEY. all these is going to end in a month's time.


COUNTING DOWN TO FREEDOM.

driving lessons can be fun if i get a fun instructor.. my instructor todae brought me near e mandai zoo. hahaha. he say bring me go see tiger. he didnt exactly bring me there coz i was driving e car mah. car driving can be fun! but i hit e kerb todae when i did an U turn sia. bleah. n i rolled backwards down e slope and my engine stalled halfway. oh well. e bloopers of driving.. but all these will only happen when i get a fun instructor. last week i got a darn boring one. who made me drive round and round bukit batok area.. and all he talked to me was turn left infront, go straight. you're driving too near e centre line. ur braking is not very good. YAWNS. that 100 mins was so difficult to pass.. but todae one very fun lah. we drove into industrial areas oso lo. saw alot of stray dogs too. hopefully my next driving instructor is as lively as e one todae. at least keep me entertained while i drive mah. since we cant play music during lessons. hahaa.


anyway, had bbq with sa badminton team yday. e fire was good. really red hot burning coal. not like e ones i previously had with my classmates. haha.. but e only problem was that there were alot of ants at e pit. er. not only at e pit. e whole place was ants infested!! we were practically jumping up and down when we were bbq-ing.. it was a really funny sight when u walk pass coz u prob dunno wad we are doing.. e army guys were practically "marching", trying their best to kill e ants. and all our food were attacked by ants.. got alot of ants crawl into my bag somemore lah! ended up i was trying to kill ants on my way home.. oh yea, speaking about going home, i was damn freaked out when i was on luqi's car. he was literally speeding along e highway at 120km/hr. and he did rapid acceleration from 60km/hr to 120km/hr. wah liew i know he got his license le but dun need like that rite. hahahaha.. for e first time, i was damn willing to put on my seatbelt. oh wells. now im aching from yday's bbq. can u believe it? bbq oso will get muscle aches. this shows how long i haven been exercising.


hahaha.. well. this will end my weekly entry. tml is beginning of yet another long working weeek. zzzz

i've always been a pampered girl at home i guess.. having nothing to worry of not having dinners, not having to lift a finger to do housework.. yep, im one lucky girl. i only realised this after i entered this realistic, horrible society to work.


undeniably, i've really learnt alot from my job. i've learnt alot about credit cards. how a bank functions. interacting and communicating with pple from all walks of life. e benefits are great. but this job has zapped me of all my energy. i basically devote 6 days of my week to work. sat is supposed to be halfday. but by e time i actually finish my follow ups, more than half e day is gone already n im usually too tired to go out. becoz all i wan to is to go home n catch up on my sleep. i feel that im not able to handle these sudden changes to my life very well. im getting very upset at myself for my incapability to cope with e moutainous work that's awaiting for me to complete every single day. e workload increases with e days. e stress coming from all sides is making me feel breathless. i feel so helpless at times that i just feel like giving up. especially on days when u meet horrible customers who decided to vent out their frustration on u... when u are unable to accede to their requests, they'll hurl abuse at u. they just dont understand that there is a limit to things that we can do. all they know is to give u pressure and make sure u do wad they ask. n when things screw up, their fingers are all pointing at u.


i always knew i cant handle stress very well. n yday, for e first time, hopefully it's e last time, i broke down in e office even before i could settle this really nasty customer. i tried to held back my tears but e agony, e frustration, e anger i felt was so overwhelming that i lost control of my emotions. i know it's very unprofessional in many pple's eyes. it may even seem juvenile to some of my colleagues. but yday was a really really bad day for me. it was e worst day ever since i started picking up calls individually. that call itself wasnt that bad actually.. but having to handle several difficult customers in a day, it's really too much for me. e whole day was all messed up. calls keep coming in. number of calls that are waiting for one of us to attend to went up to as high as 20+.. plus we were shorthanded.. it was a very fussed up day. there was so much so much to do.. not a moment to idle at all. working is like fighting a war where every second counts. under such a pressure cooker, i lost my cool...


i dunno how much longer i can hold on.. i need a very long break. i need to reorganise my thoughts.
