Oh yess! Finally! A free time to spare and blog about the recent happenings in my life. It has been a while, I know, and I'm sorry for neglecting all my readers. :(
First off, I started working last Nov 8th. And today is Thanksgiving day, that's why I don't have work. Yaaayy! LOL I've been waiting for this day for too long (aside from my 1st payday which will be next tues! HAHA) My first week was pretty good because all I did was study the corporate induction lessons, familiarize myself about the company and answer all assessment exams. It was a bit frightening whenever I'm answering an exam because there is an 80% passing rate. And if you do not pass, you must re-take the test. I do not want to do that and waste my time on an exam. I want to learn as quickly as possible!! :> Second, I met a lot of new people from the first week of training. Some are fresh graduates like me, some are old employees just moving from another department and some are external hires which are hired as a manager or team leader. They kept me awake during the sleepy hours of our training. :P And by the way, I passed all my assessment exams on first take. Yaayy for meee! Focusing on work paid off a little. HAHA
On the second week of training which is this week, I met all of my team mates, the people I'll be working for a long time every single day. I love my VP's and managers because they're just really awesome. They aren't the type of bosses who would intimidate or terrify you on your first day. They are pretty funny and fun to be with! They also gave me my locker which is very helpful on my part since I do not want to travel to work wearing my heels. My gold pumps and black peep toe heels are in my locker right now. I wear doll shoes or ballet flats when travelling to work. My locker saves my feet from having blisters. Lol I was also seated at a tempopary desk (since I am a new hire, they are still arranging my desk and waiting for my dual monitor computer to come) with 2 guys who are extremely kind and gorgeous (Us three are in the same cubicle). Yes, they are good looking guys and almost at the same age as mine. And no, I am not crushing on them, okay? I am still very loyal with ze boyfriend which by the way is also working already. That will be another part of my story for today. =)) As I was saying, they are funny and smart too. Let's have a code name for them just for the sake of my story. Let's name the 24 yr old guy Will and the 22yr old is Plane. These are random names and not their real names okay? HAHA Will is the first old hire I became friends with. He's an accountant and I must say, really really good looking. He's an epitome of the tall, dark-ish (but not really) and handsome guy. I instantly got along with him because he kept on bullying me but in a nice way. That's why I call him "Bully". HAHA It was his birthday on the 20th but he went on vacation leave that day. On the other hand, Plane is the partner in crime of Will. He is a bit short, we're almost of the same height, wearing nerdy frame glasses but outrageously smart and cute. If you just know his real name and google his name, for sure you'll see all his academic awards and stuff. He's pretty popular in his Uni. :> But there is one thing about Plane, I think he's more on the feminine side? Hahaha. Well that's what my other co-new hires say. :P I also befriended an alumnus of my Uni but from an older batch. Her name is Marie (just a codename). She's really pretty and witty! What I like about her is she's so approachable and friendly. If I could pair someone with her, it would be Will. I think they'll look good together. :"> But having boyfriend/girlfriend on the team is prohibited. Unless they want one of them to be transferred to another team or department. :P Will, Plane and Marie are old hires of the company. All the new hires like me are still under training and all I do in office for now is read online courses and familiarize self with the processes which I barely understand. I really hope I pass this stage and master all the processes of the team. :)
As for ze boyfriend, he's working in an Auditing firm a bit far from my office. That's why I have a dilemma of adjusting because we can only get to see each other every weekend. We are still both adjusting to our new environment. There was a time this week, while I was on my way to work, I just became very lonely that I cried on the bus when ze boyfriend told me how much he loves me. That's how much I miss him. :( But we need to have sacrifices in order for us to have a good future. Right now, I must trust him always and just hope for the best. :D
Well... That's a terribly long boring post. Lol
I'll be going to a spa today to de-stress and watch How I Met Your Mother and Once Upon a Time series. I will try as much as possible to keep you guys updated. Off I go now! Keep safe, lovelies<3
Adjustment period sucks big time,
