I don't plan on doing a recap of my 2010, but a hashtag on twitter kinda tickled me to do so.
For one, I'm blessed for 2010. The year's been great to me and I'm grateful to eternity. Alhamdulillah, this year has fulfilled my major milestones.
I finally get the job I wanted.
I don't expect a promotion in short period time, but I got it.
I never thought I could go back to Aussie this year, but I DID! full ride baby!
I'm challenged and all stressed out, but learning is a never-ending path for me.
I've got butterflies in my tummy for a while, fall out of it, in denial, and currently leaving it to faith.
Although the fallback, I'm too busy working and be with family, I forgot to travel.
Next year plan, traveling already has its places. Also, next year will be my next jump, another bigger milestone. Bismillahirohmanirrohim..
Thank you 2010. You've been great to me.
I truly am thankful.
Of course, I should know better who to send my regards to. Hats off to You.
my 2010
British Edward.
I met an Edward..
Waltzed into the glass door. Eurasian character, accentuate distinct British accent, but the eyes what gave him away as half Japanese. Slightly pompous personality. Very good looking. His skin is so pale white, but the eyes
He sat across my desk, I ignored.
Interesting character, but not my cuppa tea.
First impression wore off by continuing arrogant personality.
After a month
Yes, just an update for future me.
Howsa hangin' after a month in my new role at work. -- Yeah, this is basically the tagline.
well, in brief.
Sucks, but now i'm more sure that I can do this.
Now I know who ticked me off easily.
That'd be my effin HR.
She's uneducated, seriously.
At least, not as highly as I am. Yeah, I'm bragging my academic standards.
Why?
Cos that lady is just plain dumbo.
I mean, just today.
The phone at my branch broke down, she all panicky. Why? cos she's the country director's bitch that what she is. So if anything goes wrong in my branch, she needs to know and just go crazy by herself. Just go nuts, without solution. If we in this branch give solution, she'll be unhappy. Ok lady, whateva.
That lady and the other marketing dude are 2 impotent but crucial character in this company. But hey, I have no massive grudge with the dude just because I had no work related matters to do with him. Unlike the dumbo lady.
After a month,
If anything unrelated to her, I know I can do it well. I am working to achieve the company's target. At least I am trying.
The other grudge would prolly my coworker, whom I had not yet have any connection. There are only 3 of us, the other 2 have known each other from previous job. They kept YM-ing with their friends from previous company, and kept chatting about those people. At first I was quite annoyed by it, but I'm too busy to get annoyed over trivial thing. Soon they'll be outta topic of previous coworkers anyway. I don't think myself as outcast on this, because simply, I don't care. Which is good.
After a month,
I've been doing additional tasks that I may not have been doing in previous role. Though this come at costs. I didn't get included in one of the tasks I love most on my previous role. That is, networking (and free luncheons/dinners!!) with clients. Consequently, I lost my privilege to earn extra overtime due of that. This particular task will be handed down to my coworker. Lucky bastard.
After a month,
I know I can do this job.
Just keep away dumbo from my line of duty, then I'll be working emotionless.
Yeah, keep keep her far away from me. Otherwise, I might snap and kill her.
Love xx
Wake me up when SEPTEMBER comes...
I came. I surrender. I dwell. and I'm outta here!
Smell ya layta Jakarta.
I'll be outta yer way soon.
The due date is near, and I can see it clear!
Ciao, very very soon.
America's Next Top Model cycle 14
OK why am I blogging about ANTM?
Because I'm currently intrigued by it.
Been following a couple of cycles, and on cable there's rerun on cycle 14.
Why do I took interest in this cycle 14?
because they had a photo-shoot in New Zealand.
It's not Australia-land, but quite close.
So.
On this NZ episode, the models-wannabe had a challenge for multiple go-sees to NZ designers.
Alexandra, one of the model, was wearing UGG boots.
Truth be known to Aussies and Kiwis, they hate UGGS.
Of course, to Americans UGG boots are fashionable.
This is where culture/fashion-clash happened.
Yes, UGG boots to Aussies (and I guess for Kiwis too?) are hideous. I heard one of my lecturer, who is Australian, said that UGG boots are bogan's boots. LOL that just cracked me up, cos when she said so I was wearing a pair of UGGs! there were no uggs be seen in her class ever since.
So, models-wannabe, don't ever proudly wear your UGGS downunder.
No matter how comfy those boots are. Models are not supposed to wear comfy.
Or so I thought.
Here we go again.
When things get tough and I couldn't find fresh air.
I remember you.
I'm in my darkest mood, again.
I thought friends are the best companion. Start to think maybe it's family.
or maybe it's yourself?
I guess... You can't expect too much from some people. Time you spent towards them may not reflect the same amount from them to you.
Then I missed you so much. Just with you, I can be with myself and still feel content.
Am I not destined to have a life here if I'm wishing every day to go back to you?
