EVERYONE IS REALLY BLOGGING ABOUT ATTACHMENT. AND SO SHALL I. HAHA. SUCH A COPYCAT RIGHT?! HAHA. WATEVER LARS.

DETAILS OF MY WORKPLACE/COMPANY
1--> IT'S A SMALL GRAPHIC DESIGN COMPANY (INCLUDING ME, 3PPLE)
2--> THEY DON'T HAVE AN OFFICE BUILDING, I WORK IN A PRIVATE HOUSE, BUNGALOW
3--> IT'S SOMEWHERE IN JOO CHIAT
4-->WORKING HOURS: 9AM-6PM

DAY1
WOKE UP AT 6.45 TO GET READY FOR WORK. WENT TO WORK WITHOUT HAVING BREAKFAST, THAT'S MY USUAL PRACTICE. REACHED AT 8.55AM. WALKED TO THE DOORSTEP AND DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO GO IN. CALLED MY SUPERVISOR, DEN SHE CAME DOWN AND OPENED THE DOOR FOR ME. WENT UP STAIRS, IT WAS LIKE OMG! IT'S SUPER OPEN CONCEPT. MY BOSS IS SITTING DIRECTLY BEHIND ME! AND SHE CAN SEE WHAT I AM DOING.

AND ON THE 1ST DAY AFTER INTRODUCING HERSELF, SHE IMMEDIATELY GAVE ME WORK TO DO! I WAS LIKE ?!!!!!??!. AND I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THEIR EXPECTATIONS WERE. AND SHE JUST THREW ME AN ASSIGNMENT TO BRAINSTORM ON IDEAS FOR THIS PROJECT THEY WERE TENDERING.AND HOW THE HELL DO I GET IDEAS?! THEY WERE TENDERING PROJECTS FOR NLB AND HPB.

LUNCH WAS LIKE AT 2PM FOR ME. THEIR TIME IS LIKE RUBBER TIME. AND I WENT ON AN EMPTY STOMACH FOR SLIGHTLY MORE THAN HALF A DAY. ALMOST FAINTED. MORALE OF THE STORY IS "EAT BREAKFAST!" WENT FOR LUNCH WITH THE GIRLS FROM THE SISTER COMPANY DOING VIDEO STUFF. ONE OF THE GIRL'S ALSO AN ATTACHMENT STUDENT BUT FROM NTU. THE OTHER 1 IS A PERMANENT STAFF, WHO USED TO BE AN ATTACHMENT STUDENT THERE TOO.

IN THE AFTERNOON I WAS SUPPOSED TO GO WITH MY SUPERVISOR FOR A MEETING WITH A CLIENT! 1ST DAY GO WITH U AND MEET CLIENT! HOW 'COOL'?! BUT I WAS TO SLOW IN TYPING, SHE COULDN'T WAIT SO SHE WENT ALONE. SO I WAS LEFT ALONE IN THE OFFICE. ME, MYSELF AND I. LEFT THE OFFICE AT 6 SHARP COS SUPERVISOR SAID I COULD.

TOOK 1 1/2 HRS TO REACH HOME! SO SLOW!

DAY 2
REACHED OFFICE AT 8.55 BUT NO ONE WAS THERE. SO I HAD TO WAIT OUTSIDE COS THERE'S AN ALARM AND I DUN KNOW THE PIN. MY SUPERVISOR CAME AT 9.05AM. SO I'M NOT CONSIDERED LATE. STARTED RESEARCHING FOR INFO ON HPB AND NLB.

TREID THAT THE WHOLE MORNING. WENT FOR LUNCH WITH MY BOSSES, COS THE GIRLS UP STAIRS WERE HAVING COMPANY LUNCH. NOT THAT THEIR COMPNAY IS THAT BIG TOO. BOUT 4 PPLE TOO. STRESSFUL TO EAT WITH BOSS, THEY INTERROGATE YOU LIKE HELL. BOSS PAID FOR LUNCH.

AFTER LUNCH, WENT BACK TO THE OFFICE. HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO DO AND STARTED READING THE MARKETING BOOKS MY BOSS THOUGHT WAS USEFUL TO ME. READ TILL I WAS NODDING MY HEAD, LIKE AGREEING WITH IT. BLOODY SLEEPY!

BOUT LATE AFTERNOON, BOSSES WANTED TO DISCUSS THE IDEAS I CAME UP WITH FOR THE PROJECTS. WHEN I SHOWED THEM MY IDEAS, THEY DISAGREED UPON EVERYTHING. HOW DEMORALIZING. SPOILT MY MOOD FOR THE NIGHT AND MADE ME FEAR GOING THERE AGAIN FOR THE NEXT 6 WEEKS.

IT WAS 6PM AND MY BOSS DIDN'T TELL ME I COULD GO AND I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO ASK HER IF I COULD GO. PLEASE GIVE ME SOME POINTERS ON THIS. HATE LEAVING LATE COS I CAN'T STAND STAYING IN THAT HOUSE FOR A SECOND LONGER.

DAY3
WENT BACK TO WORK, BUT WAS LATE, REACHED AT 9.05AM. HEADED STRAIGHT FOR THE COMPUTER AND BOSS GAVE ME ANOTHER PROJECT TO BRAINSTORM, FROM WDA. SO WED WAS ANOTHER BRAIN STORMING DAY AND PROPOSAL DAY. HAD TO JOT DOWN ALL THE IDEAS INTO REPORT FORM AND SEND IT TO MY BOSS FOR "INSPECTION".

LUNCH, THE SISTER COMPANY GIRLS ORDERED PIZZA, SO IT WAS ANOTHER DAY OF FREE LUNCH.SO THIS MEANS WE ATE IN THE OFFICE AND I WAS BREATHING THE SAME SMELL FOR 9HRS STRAIGHT. HOW I WISH I COULD TAKE A BREATHER. GOSH! WHEN MY BOSSES CAME BACK FROM LUNCH, THEY BOUGHT ME A PACK OF WATERMELON. HAHA. HOW SWEET.

AFTER LUNCH WAS VERY MUCH ON RESEARCH AGAIN. HOW SAD! AND MORE REPORT WRITING. LEFT AT 6.05PM AFTER ASKING IF I COULD LEAVE. I SOMETIMES WONDER IF SHE'LL GET ANGRY IF I ASKED HER THAT EVERYDAY.

WENT I REACHED HOME, DAD CALLED AN AMBULANCE COS GRANDMA WAS SHIVERING AND WAS RUNNING A TEMPERATURE OF 39.8 DEGREES AND SHE HAD BREATHING PROBLEMS. PARENTS ONLY CAME HOME @ 12AM. GRANDMA TO STAY IN HOSPITAL FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I GUESS.

DAY4
HAD TO DISCUSS IDEAS AGAIN. KENNA SHOOT LIKE SIAO AGAIN. LIKE HOW AMATEUR. TYPED OUT PROPOSAL COS BOSS NEEDED IT THAT VERY DAY. HAD LUNCH FREAKING LATE, 2PM. WENT BACK OFFICE LIEK AT 3.15PM. HAHA. HALF THE DAY GONE, HALF THE BATTLE WON! HAHA. DID UNDERLINING OF SCRIPTS FOR THE NEXT DAY'S VOICE OVER FOR A VIDEO FOR HPB. DIDN'T FINISH ON TIME AND HAD TO BRING BACK TO COMPLETE THEM.

DAD WAS WAITING FOR ME OUTSIDE MY OFFICE COS I WAS TO VISIT GRANDMA WITH HIM, KUKU AND COUSIN KOR KOR. I TOLD MY BOSS AT THE START OF THE DAY THAT I HAD TO LEAVE EARLY FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS COS GRANDMA IN HOSPITAL AND I NEED TO VISIT HER. SHE SAID OK! HAHA. SO I CAN LEAVE EARLY! HAHA.

VISITED GRANDMA IN HOSPITAL. SHE LOOKED MUCH BETTER THAN THE NIGHT BEFORE. THE PREVIOUS NIGHT, SHE WAS SHIVERING LIKE MAD AND HER FACE WAS SO PALE. WAS SO FREAKING WORRIED!

DAY 5
DIDN'T GO TO OFFICE TILL BOUT 4PM COS I WAS TO REPORT AT JALAN BESAR FOR VOICE OVER RECORDING FOR THE VIDEO. MET HOSSAN LEONG. HE IS VERY FRIENDLY. NICE PERSON. HAHA. RECORDED TILL 2+PM. SO MEANS ANOTHER 1/2 A DAY GONE, WITHOUT BEING IN THE OFFICE. HAHA. HOW NICE! HAHA. HATE SITTING IN FRONT OF THE COMPUTER SCREEN, WORKING AIMLESSLY.

HAD LUNCH OPPOSITE THE RECORDING STUDIO AND BOSS PAID AGAIN. HAHA. SHE SAID NEXT TIME GROW UP DEN GO BACK AND PAY HER. HAHA. HOW NICE.

AFTER RECORDING, BOSS AND I TOOK CAB BACK TO OFFICE. DEN MY DIRECT BOSS GAVE ME ANOTHER ASSIGNMENT FROM IDA. SO I HAVE MORE BRAINSTORMING TO DO THE COMING WEEK.
SHE ALSO ASKED ME TO DRESS PRESENTABLY COS THEY HAVE A PRESENTATION ON MONDAY TO ACRA. AND SHE ASKED ME TO DO THE OPENING OF THE PRESENTATION. LIKE OMG! I'M SUPPOSED TO GIVE GREATER DETAILS ABOUT MY COMPANY TO THE PEOPLE FROM ACRA! WISH ME GOOD LUCK!
