Just a week ago, I was tearing my hair off trying to juggle 2 projects and a final paper for portfolio management.. Today, I am going through a more fixated schedule of a 8.30 - 5.30 p.m intership. I find myself suddenly missing all the maddness of school life. I want to sit in the seminar room again writting gossipy massages on the table with jo and syl (my 2 fav gals ^_^), occasionally playing BINGO to past time during boring classes, telling and laughing at lame jokes, trying to absorb knowledge that seems beyond me till the exams and working on projects with my team mates. This is the life I have been so familiar with.. Can I really move on? I guess in the past few posts you ppl can sense my uncertainty with my future ahead.. Although I told Jo I can't wait to get on to working life but there is still a huge part of me that is still struggling to get to terms with this mentality (for the lack of a better word).
I dun know why I am feeling this way.. I just had this strong wave of emotion rushing through me at work today.. That I really miss life @ SMU.. Maybe it is becoz of the new challenges I face each and everyday in sch and I thrive on the sense of achievement knowing that I am able to survive and overcome these obstacles.. The feeling of being in charge of a certain responsibility.. Now at work, all I do is just pure brainless admin stuff.. Filing and clearing some paper work here and there.. Computing the length of time each employee is late for work last month.. Although I am glad I have been given more different things to do but I can't help but wish I could handle more value added roles.. Like shorlisting people for recruitment interview and being in charge of the interviewing process. Well.. I guess since my seniors there are also quite new to the job.. I dun think I will be getting a chance to do these kinda things soon.. Not until they themselves are familarized with these processes.. I won't ask for more resonsibilities at this point to prevent being branded as impatient and cocky.. The only thing I can do now, at best, is to handle the filing system properly. =)
Despite all these "grievances", I still like the people in my office. Only 2 other ladies who are happy-go-lucky people.. The kind I can really get along with.. That's the major thing that really matters right? What's the point of liking the job scope but you hate the people around you. Your life will still be miserable.. Utilmately, you will still need the support of good hearted colleagues in order to get far. It's also for the good of the company as a whole as well.
Anyway, below are some random pictures taken in the past month:
