#80: Keep your cards so close to your chest.

Mustard yellow is such a classic color.

I am actually thinking about luck or fate or whatever that surprisingly had brought me to this very random intersection. (But being a typical Capricorn, I actually don’t believe in luck but hard work.. and after all, luck is when opportunity meets preparation. So yeah..) Amazing results, and now this; Job Offers!


I started my part-time job in the hope that it can cure my holiday miseries or in my case, it would be kerinduan malady. So, I pretty much accepts anything that offers me and I ended up being a Customer Service Executive Asst. in this Science-based company in SS2. Yes, office work! Which includes; doing quotations (that needs Mathematical skills, which I just die a bit for a while. The thought of dealing with numbers just.. kills me mentally and abstractly.), a little bit of accountings (null basic of accounting here), and other basic paper works. So far, it’s been pretty easy except for the fact that I suck in Maths and Accounts. The pantry is loved! Best caffeine supply (and Starbucks is just walking distance).Yes, best part of having an office in SS2 is definitely the places to eat there! Everything is just freaking walking distance from the office! (oh well, how I wish UM is just like thaaaaaat) You name it; Murni, McDonalds, Pelita, Tutti Frutti, Subway, KFC, UpStairs Café, Melaka Street, Kam Heong, Lorong Seratus Tahun, and so so so soooo much more! And did I tell? The best pisang goreng in town is right here, infront of Pelita; crispiest Pisang Raja (Y) The department that I’m currently working in is the best department anyone could ever asked for! The best head of department, coolest colleagues + funniest receptionist! :) Everyone is so warm and friendly and.. I just love it :D I feel so loved and a touch of familiarity is sensed here just like I felt in UM Geology :’)

Other than that job, I am also currently doing another part time job during the weekends. Before you can say I’m crazy or insane or something, I would like to highlight on the part that this job is an “on-off” one :p Doing Public Relations job for events like major concerts, rave parties and such :) I mean like 15bucks/hour, that’s like a lot! Obviously, I wouldn’t wanna miss the chance do it ey? Plus, free backstage passes! :D Life is great :B

Not enough with that, I also got an offer from my dream company; Halliburton Oil&Gas. Have I tell that how I just fell in love with their office in the Twin Tower, KL? Oh just so freaking, God-darn beautiful! The pantry is just oh my heaven! The view is ridiculously beautiful! You can see the whole Kuala Lumpur. Imagine working at such place, dreamy ey? :D Besides the fact that they’re one of the top American Oil&Gas company (and also their high pay in US Dollars, mwahahaha!), that are the reasons why I wanna work there. God heard my prayers (Syukur Alhamdulillah), and a few weeks after I started my job as a Customer Service Executive, I got an offer there. Yeap, in Halliburton! Unfortunately, (have I tell you how much I loathe this word? Baaah!) I already signed a contract with my current company; Chemopharm (which is one of the top companies in South East Asia). So, had to let it go, but Good News is, I am going to do my part time there during my 3rd semester break! Weeehooo :D


Nuff’ said. I am actually a WORKAHOLIC (so much better and cooler than being a Shopaholic). It feels so darn good to be one and I am so much in love with the professional, working world! I just can’t resist all the offered jobs around me! So so so much fun eventhough they’re tiring and the pay that I got/getting just drives me insanely wild and euphoria! And the fact that I’m buying stuffs that I really really (and verbally almost die) want with my hard work, own earned money is just priceless! Til here, Have a Good day, folks! (+ my apology on the facile, incomplex metaphors like I used to. Blame my busy day!)


Patience is just another word for getting old,
Resolution just as impossible as letting go
