It's been almost 2 weeks into my new job. Honestly, I am not really enjoying. I mean, I chose to work as a sales executive, and I know what to expect but the truth is, I do not enjoy what I am suppose to do at all.

I guess, it is just me and I am not cut out to a be sales person. The fact that I hate cold calling and repeating the same thing over and over again. So upsetting.

I know I know, you guys probably say that I just joined the company and for sales to see result you gotta be patient and wait.

But I cannot stand it when I can't see or feel results! How would I know if I am going to succeed in closing my sales? I would I know if my pitching tactics are correct and working. How long do I have to wait. What if I have to wait forever? Are other people willing to give you a chance and wait with you?

Sales are being judged by the numbers. No numbers no talk.

Why is it so hard to find the perfect job. =(

One week of work simply pass just like that. It is still early to judge whether work has been ok because I just started. I only know that I will be extremely busy next week and I have exams the week after.

So this means that I will be staying at home this weekend to prepare for examinations and no, I am not in my best mood now.

Ah Mu Mu is going to Thailand tomorrow and will only be back on Friday.

:(

The past week has been pretty good for me. I've been staying at home, working on assignments spending time doing housework for my mum. BUT! I refuse to pack my room. I just love it when my room is in an organized chaos. It represents me! I know where my things are and I will refuse to move them away from their current places.

I am starting my new work on Monday! *Pulls hair* Pretty excited and I am feeling the motivation and excitement that I always look out for. It's good I guess as these are the factors that keeps me moving on, working for the better. As promised, when I earned my 1st commission, dinner treats on me FJJLB you hear that?

Oh ya, talking about FJJLB, I met Weili and XY for kohi session on Thursday. I was a little late and when I was about to reach Starbucks, I texted Weili

"Dude where are you!"

The reply I got?

"Under your armpit."

I burst out laughing! HAHA! My reply?

"Got meh? Search already. Dun have leh. Where are you!"

Damn! I should have replied: "So my armpit smelly or not?"

HAHAHAHHAHAHAH! Sigh.... The friends I have! Love them to bits. So after kohi we had no where to go we ended up at Sun Plaza Park with the couple fighting over my phone to play Coin Dozer. Then we proceeded to Mcdonalds, where Jin Hao came to meet us, and there goes all the lame conversations.

Also, I was forced to adopt a christian name at my new work place. I had a hard time searching for a name that I liked although way before I had considered Sashlyn or Zylia. In fact I quite like Zylia but Zylia Choo Zylia Choo... Doesn't sound very right.

Sigh. I ended up using ALYSON. Okay, close friends of mine knew that I once had a christian name called Alison. But I hated it, which I do not know why. So I improvised by changing the "I" to "L" and, I like it much more. Pronunciation is still the same, just that it looks better. Oh my god. I can't believe I am that shallow. HAHA!

HI EVERYBODY! MY NAME IS ALYSON!

I saw this freaking gorgeous heels from Charles & Keith and it is S$89.00! * Bangs head on table *

So Paul The Octopus was right! Spain won! Just as I wished! Now I won the bet with Ah Mu Mu and I get to eat Dian Xiao Er next month! Woo hoo!

So yesterday started with us going to fly kite again. But it is yet another fail attempt. I think the problem lies in the kite and the wind. *Self-denial.* Nonetheless, it was great fun and Ah Mu Mu was running around the field half-naked. Tsk! Public Indecency. -.-



So we met my mum and went for dinner at Katong. So, it marks the first time Ah Mu Mu met my mum officially.

Then, Ah Mu Mu and I proceeded to Safra to play pool and watch soccer.

According to my amateurish soccer knowledge, I think both team did very well. Spain's attack was consistent and fast while Netherland's defense was extremely good. However, I thought that the referee decision's for some fouls and free-kicks were not well-made. I guess, Netherland got physically tired and were very demoralized by the referee. In fact, I was quite annoyed with the referee. Though I supported Spain, I would think that Netherland would also deserve it too, if they win match.

I love the part when Robben ran after the referee hollering away.

Shall go continue to work on my Media Relation's campaign. Till then, ta!

Yesterday Ah Mu Mu told me, "I miss my mum. I miss her cooking." My heart wrenched. I wanted to cry. Then I told him, "Yeah I know. I miss my dad too. It is his birthday today and today marks the 3rd anniversary of living in my current flat." If you guys knows the irony of it.

Yesterday marks the last day of me in Kingsmen. I had a fabulous time. It is extremely heart-warming to receive well-wished and people coming to tell me that I will be missed. It makes me feel significant and that I had made an impact on their lives.

They are people who made my life so bearable when working. When I was younger, I always hear that working life is so shitty and boring. They are the people who proved me otherwise.

They are people who have imparted me life skills which I know I will be able to take away with me. I will make good use of it and will always remember and be grateful for all that was given to me.

They are people who taught me the real meaning behind "Work hard and Play hard". They showed me what is bonding and team spirit.

They are people who guided me when I was all new, knowing nothing and now, I am something.

They are people who have molded me into what I am capable of, holding me up when I am at my lowest, giving me constructive advises, telling the lamest jokes, offering help when I needed it.

I have gained so much for the 2 years in Kingsmen that no amount of words can express my gratefulness for them.

Thank you! For all the great times in Kingsmen, I will never forget.

I WANT TO EARN MANY MANY MONEY!

I WANT TO GO MANY MANY HOLIDAYS!

I WANT TO BUY MANY MANY THINGS!

RAR!!!

As all of you know, I am now currently looking for another jobs and I have just started actively sending out my resume. Looking at the time now, I am not expecting anybody to replies to any of my emails.

Surprisingly, a particular company, replied to my email almost immediately after I sent my resume to them. Freaking scary. So okay, I decided to reply to their email immediately as well. After sending, 2 minutes later, I received a reply. And I am like, "DON'T THIS PEOPLE NEED TO SLEEP OR STOP WORKING???'

I understand that technology might have helped many employees to be much more efficient in their work and communication BUT LOOK AT THE TIME NOW?!?!?! Okay, so, it's either these people works realllllllyyy hard or their working time is crazy.

This is madness I tell you. Just last week, I had a discussion with my current colleagues over lunch on how people are getting so absorbed into technology that they forgot about their social life. For example, a group of friends go out for dinner after not having met for a very long time. So through out the dinner, all of them were busily replying messages, busy facebooking or replying to emails. So what's the meaning of meeting up? I definitely do not agree to this kind of antics because it is going to be a humongous social problem.

How can friends be friends when they do not even speak to each other, with their mouth? What is communication like this? How are human going to convey messages appropriately? What are our mouths for?

This is the reason why I refuse to configure my iphone mail setup, to push my work emails into my phone. SIAO AH!?! GO HOME SLEEP ALREADY STILL WANT TO READ EMAIL MEH? NO LIFE MEH?

Speaking of job, my mum told me that SIA is hiring cabin crew. I knew that before she told me. I can hear it from her voice that she is strongly encouraging me to go be an stewardess because I can earn much more. Yes mum, but you will never understand what exactly I wanted in pursuing my career. Oh! My best friend is an air stewardess and she is doing great now. MS ANGEL TAN I MISS YOU!!!!!

P/s: That company just replied to my last email. Oh my god!!! Look at the time now!!! You should be in lala land!!!!

This is my little space
And I think I deserve respect for my own space, right?
