Time passes REALLY FAST! It has been two weeks since I came back from my Hokkaido trip ( how I miss it now!) and since I started my work with Company K. Don’t know if there is anyone who is reading my blog, but nonetheless, I am going to update it right now.

Many friends and even ex-boss(es) are asking me whether I am coping well or not. I really don’t know how to reply them. Put it this way, I am still adapting to the working environment and the culture here. Work life has been (very!) hectic, I have been working overtime particularly since my first day, and even working from home on my last weekend till 3am in the morning - how sad right? :-( But I came to know that I am not the only one, and ALL my colleagues are working overtime EVERYDAY! Are they mad???!! Where is the so called work-life balance that I was promised with during my interview? Sigh Sigh - I think I am on a pirated ship now. Like what Ah Faan said, though I might be earning abit more than my previous job, the salary earned / hour spent at work is actually much lower now. I totally agree!

My first week was spent working overtime, feeling miserable and regretful! But like what my papa said, absorb as much knowledge and gain as much experience I can,and if I really can not tahan, just say sayonara to the company. Haha. But I have to admit that I am learning a lot!

I am glad that Mr Lim has been very supportive to me lately - accompanying me while I am doing my work at home (of course he is playing his game la,but can see that he is feeling very tired. Imagine staying up till 3am), waking up early on Sunday to go for a jog with me, sms-ing me frequently to make sure I am surviving at work etc. Not forgeting that my mama is very also very supportive too! Cooks my favourite food, didn’t stop me when I wanna to go for a jog (to destress) around 8pm - she always nag at me if I wanna to go jogging after 7pm. Haha. Oh, my papa too..sending me back to my home from his. Come to think that my closed ones around me have been extra nice to me lately..

Not that I have the time to write my blog now, but because I want to let my brain relax a while before I continue with my assignment.

Hope I do not need to stay till very late in the office today.

I will hang on! Jia you!
