|| My new job! ||

Everything happened so fast. It was only on monday (15th May) that i decided to get my lazy bum off the couch to go find a job. And so fortunately for me, I've got the ideal job on the day itself! On 16th May, I was ready for work. I was quite skeptical about this place before I came here because the office was at China Court. Its so ulu that nobody had heard of it. However, I was pleasantly surprised. This place is so accessible that even if I reached the trained station by 8.15am, I can still take my own sweet time to waddle to the office and can still be 15 minutes early! Oh ya, btw, China Court is about 10 minutes walk from Raffles Place. My company designs office furnitures. Quite cool. Even the office itself looks very new and modern. What's most important is that I have learnt and is going to learn a lot of new stuff which is applicable to the knowledge that I have gained in school.

I must say that working and studying are really two different things. The knowledge gained in school did not allow me to know how to carry out the various complicated responsibilities of an accountant but the basic knowledge of accounting is still a must to understand how things work. In actual fact, the job of an accountant is much more complicated than studying accounting. Since I am new here, I have to try to learn the ropes fast. But of course, things arent just as simple as that. In my previous jobs, I was only an assistant to the senior accountants but now, I standing in for an accountant that has gone on maternity leave, so guess how much more things do I have to know!

Lucky for me, I have a good boss. She is willing to teach me and guide me along. Sometimes I have too many things to do till I forgot what she has told me, so I gotta go back and ask her. Its so paisey to do that coz she will sure think that I'm some hopeless worker. However, things are so far so good. I hope to do a good job out of it.

Now, everybody's out to meeting, and I have finished all my work on hand. Time to slack! Haha~

In Love @10:50 AM
