feeling sheepish

My command of language sucks. Whether it is English, BM or Cantonese.

A friend pointed out during dinner. Malunya... Plus hes not someone I meet up often. I don't know him that well somemore. I think I should go for english lessons.

How was your week?

Mine, amazingly, past by just like that. My workload is getting heavier, but I enjoyed it because I understand more now compared to the first two weeks. I had insufficient sleep the whole week. Probably due to the crazy previous weekend I had. I also had nasi lemak... 3 times in a row for breakfast! I think I am going to turn into a pig soon.

I went for my first cell meeting this week. I like it a lot. Think I am going to try to be a regular.

I almost forgot that lots of my friends read my blog. Even the ones I have not seen for ages. I am talking about my ex-schoolmates. I was shocked when one of them told me that they do. And I think I should pay more attention to what I write in here. I cannot afford to have too many people asking me questions. Especially YOU guys. You know who you are.

*laughs*
I am definately having one of the best time in my life right now.

It was a stressful day indeed. I did 7 companies today. The last one was the worst. Contract financing. OMG.

However, something else made my day.

He wrote about me.

The only problem is, do I want him to?
 

Lucky?

By josephine wong suk mun
Do you hear me,
Talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I guess I was lucky. In every way. All the happy moments. All the heart breaking moments. I thought I'll be stuck there forever. I was lucky in a way to went through all those. I promise that I'll never forget you but I had enough. Its time to lock up the memories, throw the key away and hide it, never ever taking it out again.
I think I am happy again =)

It has been a tiring weekend. From friday night onwards.

We had a MA/FL gathering and was introduced to our seniors. It was an eventful evening and I will not publish any of the pictures here. No way. Anyways, I ended up pretty tired on Saturday, almost slept in church and had to skip partying with some of the peeps and went to Alexis instead. Haha. But at least I fulfilled one of my wishes for the month!

Whats left? Apple strudels and Mama-mia!
 

LC/BA/TR/SG and etc

ARGHHHHH

Me do not like trade bills. Its COMPLICATED.

How am I supposed to structure for my customers when I cannot even understand it?

Arghh.. I am left with two weeks to learn it. I don't think I have enough time.

First it was Bear Stearns. Now Lehman Brothers. Even Merrill Lynch is having some troubles on its own. I secretly wished that someday in the future I can be part of Merrill Lynch. I know, I am not near to investment banking at all. But everyone are allowed to dream right?

Back here in Malaysia, we have all sorts of news everyday whether in the morning or at night. People rushed for the morning papers and TheSun became a popular choice. So what will it be tomorrow?

Its been a while. I finally got my own internet connection.

Its mid-autumn festival again! I remember yakking about it last year on this blog itself. This year felt totally different compared to then. I was still a student then, trying to pass all my papers. Now, I have become a banker. Earning my own money, living on my own. No longer asking dad for money but instead tries to give him some every month.

All these blast from the past seems so surreal to me. I guess I haven't really moved on eventhough I have been working for 3 months now. I missed the things I did, the food I had (the many times I had the awesome fried rice), the place and the people. Everything I do now is just so different. I eat different kind of food, I don't go out to mamak, I stop going to the movies and I even have less time to daydream!

Arghh.. I hate the feeling. Its similar to what people might call it homesick, just that what I am missing is not exactly my home. Yes, I do have to admit that I miss you guys in uni. Please, lets try to meet up once in a while?

Anyways, I came up with a new wishlist. For the current month. I really think I should have one every month. Motivation, to drive me move further every month.

September's WISHLIST
1. Watch Mama Mia!
2. Apple strudels
3. Wanna go for a local jazz performance

Well, thats about it for the month. Have a plan and work towards it. Hopefully its good news when I do my month-end review!

I'm sick. All over.

I am stuck with a flu bug that never seem to get enough of me. I had stomach cramps for the past whole week. Wonder what I ate wrong. *thinks*

My mind is losing focus. I don't know what to do, what to eat, what to buy. I should sleep more. I think I stoned too much during my journey to work and back. Its the same everyday.
Traffic jam. Squeezed into LRT. Walk. Work. Lunch. Work. Walk. Squeezed into LRT. Traffic Jam ++.

Could my life get any better? I dread the cars but I want to live in a city.

I am such a troublemaker.

Back to being sick. My bank account is sick. I wonder when will it be healed.

I think I am sick. As in, I cannot stand myself. I think I am overweight, fugly and stupid.

So, how do you feel today?

My one week branch attachment was not all exciting. Probably only on my first day. The rest of the four days were practically sitting down and became a part-time receptionist.

I went for Avril Lavigne's The Best Damn Tour in Malaysia. It was pretty last minute as I was informed I could not get free tickets at 4.30pm and 30mins later, there were tickets available. I rushed, fought the crazy friday jam, got lost (don't ask me why) and picked up Sue. It was drizzling but we didn't care. We started the night with "Hey Hey You You, I wanna be your girlfriend!" and of course the ever famous Complicated and When You're Gone.
And guess who I met! Andrew Lee, my recess partner from my form6 days. I remember him singing Happy Ending almost everyday then. I have not seen him for... 4 years, I think. Sue said I practically jumped and hugged him. *laughs*

Saturday was my convocation which I dreaded going to. Was supposed to have dimsum for lunch but somehow, waiting for my whole family to be prepared, one might mistaken that it is their convo, and not mine. Ended up in ampang park for lunch which I hardly took much because of the stress. No, I wasn't stressed out about convo, jus family issues. *shakes head*

I reached there late, with everyone had their robes on and the thing on the head. I don't know what is it called. I was like... SHIT! Rushed here and there. I hid my clutch under my robe as we were not allowed to bring any bags into the hall. *laughs* One of the PICs saw that and warned me to hide it properly. What was in my clutch? Erm, powder case with mirror (VERY important), blotters which even the guys took some from me. It was blotters with powder! Talk about vainity. Then I practically crapped and practiced some of my broken mandarin just to pass time. I didn't manage to take pictures with many people as it was packed and I couldn't find familiar faces. So, I took with a few and cabut as my whole family looks bored and tired and hot.

the reason I attended my convo

the bro-in-law

Awesome

Dinner was celebrated the American way where we were like an American family with burgers, chips and soft drinks. Carl's Jr. was the top choice for the night. However, the real celebration was held on Merdeka's Day itself at Rakuzen, Chulan Square. I treated my family. I am officially RM450 poorer.

Merdeka's Day was also Pohli's birthday where me and Sue have planned long ago to surprise her by gathering the CF peeps at Cheras. I realize KL is awfully quiet on Sunday nights.

As my parents are still around, I took them to tea at Delicious, BVII to compensate to my dad for not taking him to hi-tea on Sunday. My dad is not a fan of jap food. We took the awesome traditional tea set.


*gasps*

I got presentation tomorrow and I am not prepared yet. SK is soo gonna kill me. Real work begins on wednesday. *sobs*

 

Merdeka weekend

By josephine wong suk mun
It has been an eventful weekend.

A lot planned for the coming week.

So much to do and so little time.

Would like to share more but I think I'll wait till I get the photos to make it more interesting.

Till then, have a good Merdeka weekend, folks!
