The third day of work! Awww!!! Bor---ring!!!

hahah~ It's only the third day and I'm getting bored! There're just so much things to read and catch up on, and worst thing is I don't really know what the hell this is all about! I mean, I know what the thing does, but I don't know how to make it do what they're supposed to do!

Of course, I've not actually started work on anything. Was looking at some of the documentation, at my colleagues, and realized I know less than I thought I did. Oh well. But my colleagues are really nice. They told me to pick up slowly... as one simply can't pick up to speed overnight. Well, that is true. Perhaps, I'm just giving too much rush on myself, and pressure... yet again... when no one is actually giving me that. Maybe I should just relax and take my time learning the stuff.

Anyway, my ignorance aside. I've got my own tv!!! A 37" LCD HDTV!!! On the second day of work!!! Wahahah~ Of course, it isn't at home. It's beside my table. haha~ Anyway, the entire floor works on the tv, and so there're like huge tvs everywhere. And it's kinda amusing when one presses the remote to turn on one's tv, and the other tv at the next table turns on as well. Luckily that guy isn't here today, otherwise he'd probably think I'm playing with his set, when I'm really trying to turn mine on, without turning on his. All in all, it's just feels good to have a tv set right behind you. Not only does it offer greater concealment, it also offers greater responsibility and sense of importance. At least, I'm not, or I hope that I'm not, a free loader in the team.

Well, it's actually quite understandable that I'm not expected to know anything. First, my position as an associate software engineer says it all. And in addition to that, I realized I'm possibly the youngest in the office! I don't think there's anyone who's younger than me, possibly even Naomi! Ooh that girl! She's in the same office as I am!!! Wooooot!!! Wahahaha~ But unfortunately she's married :'( Boo! But I sorta guessed, or at least with my bro's gut feelings... So I'm actually quite alright with that. At least she sent me 2 emails already!!! wahhaahaha~ Anyway, even Naomi may be slightly older than me, or in the least the same age. There's another guy whom I initially thought was quite close to my age, or at least my stage of life. But he actually had worked for 2.5 years somewhere before coming over. So I guess, I'm probably not expected to be able to contribute as much as the others, or at least for the next half a year. I will work hard though.

Anyway, the thing I like about this place is they focus on results, rather than time, which is really unlike singapore or any asian countries, where one must really be busy or act busy for the 10 hours there. So therefore, I get to go to office anytime I wish and leave anytime I like. But because of that, I think the team lacks a bit of interaction. Everyone seems to be just doing their own work all or most of the time. Or maybe it's because I'm sitting far away from others and I'm too young a brat to communicate with. Oh well... Politics? I don't really feel that there is any, and even if there's any, it doesn't really concern me, since I'm a recruit here and I'll ORD in 2 years!... or maybe 1 yr 10 months!!! hahaha~

But even though the office hours are own time own target, I still don't feel right if I come too much later than 9 or leave at 5!!! It feels a little geng-ish to me... Probably I'm still not used to such a working style... Or probably it's just because I'm new there and still don't have anything concrete to work on, which means that I really don't have anything to do, and I could have left much earlier to come home and study instead. But it's probably won't leave a good impression on the others.

Oh well... much things to learn at work. And I feel so tired every time I come back. Maybe I should come back earlier in future, so that I'd at least still have some energy to go for a short run. hehe~ Better go shower and sleep soon.

Tata!

Inspiration Quotes

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!

Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.

Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
