"You're wishin' too much, baby. You gotta stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone oughta be.”

in the past weeks i mentioned that i was looking for another job, in addition to my existing one. well, i found one, went for the interview, passed it, went for the training, started working, and resigned after one day's work (albeit a little reluctantly, because i had three deals pending. three!). all this happened in a flash of four days.

sigh i'm always doing things on impulse, but i really can't help myself.

some good has come out of this at least. now i realised that being a receptionist is actually a much better job than being a telemarketer. though i must say that i quite enjoy telemarketing as well - the thrill that rushes up your spine when you manage to close a deal, the sense of achievement. it's really a challenging job. but i couldn't stand having my dinners alone, because a certain MS LIM played me out(no hard feelings :)), hence, the resignation. okay so now that i'm learning to count my blessings, i decided that i really like my job. though it's a tad late seeing that i only have a little more than one month left. still it's better late than never, right? haha. i'm given much more important tasks to do now. the most fun part is when i get to prepare powerpoint presentations for the company, and help the HR manager in highly confidential stuff, which nobody, not even my mentor, is allowed to see. and she allows me to sit at her desk when i do it! me, sitting at the manager's desk. hurhur.

yeah i'm only happy when i feel important. ain't that sad? haha.

i was asked to extend my contract but declined though. i don't like my job that much, and i always wanted to try out teaching or marketing. plus i really can't stand some people in my company. i mean, most of them are nice, but some are downright unreasonable and drive me crazy sometimes.

this new year was pretty much the same as the years before. except my cousins came back from vancouver this time, which makes no difference anyway cos i didn't talk to them. oh, and for some strange reason my dad wanted to go to the bird park yesterday despite the ominous rainclouds. so we spent the first day of the lunar new year visiting birds in the pouring rain. well it's something new for a change i guess.
