New Beginning

The only similarity between my ex and current co. is the place is just as freezing! Brrr. thankfully i've got 2 jackets with me in the office.
With the new job in town, i'm inclined to spend more. I tell myself with the additional pay increment i can afford more things so i bought and bought and bought. You can't imagine how much i've spent recently:

- Chest of drawers $250
- Clothes $150
- Shoes $60
- Dermabrasion package $430
- Unbilled items from Japan (thanks to Chris) which easily comes up to $100.
- Contact lense solution, cotton wool, , masks etc - $50

And then the loan shark (aka mom) starts to demand an increase for her monthly "protection fee". :(

It's ok i tell myself, at least the new job doesnt require me to carry heavy goods. I've been doing allocation and pricing, generating reports, collating statistics and other minor projects. It's all good and i can relate why i need to do these. It's definitely more focused than the previous job. However the moral in new co is low though due to high turnover rate. But i dont think i will let that affect me. The colleagues felt that the co. was disorganised but i didnt tell them that WN's much more worse. What's this compared to WN. Haha. it helps when u come from a tougher background i guess.

So jeffrey the salesman for SG& MY has left us. My boss Pete asked if i mind to help out with the SG sales while he handles the MY ones before the next person comes onboard. As such, I've been meeting a few customers with my boss last week and he's really good. The confidence he exludes is just amazing. No wonder he got promoted.

Colleagues are ok but i'm still the youngest in my team as one of them is calling me "xiao mei" all the time and that reminds me of my ex-colleagues. When i log in on my MSN, my ex colleagues are all messaging me telling me how much they missed me. Awwwww. so sweet. Even the german intern misses me ;p (ya..that cute little boy). I miss them too but again it's the same feeling when i left IF for WN. I always miss the staff. So this time round, i'm coping better. People come and go in your lives all the time. I just have to get used to it.

Ok. i better go prepare now.meeting my sec friends for a bday celebration.. We are having XO crab beehoon. Muahhaaha! till then peeps!
