The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Cups of Coffee

When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle,
when 24 hours in a day are not enough,
remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups ofcoffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items infront of him.
When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar.
He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if thejar was full.
The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.

'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things--your family, your children, your health, your friend, your favourite passions---and if everything else was lost and onlythey remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your houseand your car.

The sand is everything else---the small stuff.

'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play with your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your spouse out to dinner.
Play another 18.
There will always betime to clean the house and fix the disposal.

Take care of the golf balls! first---the things that really matter.
Set your priorities.
The rest is just sand.'

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled.
'I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'


alright, reproduce the above from aiai's blog.. felt it was really meaningful.
however, i felt something is lacking - God. so i decided to change a little to it! the jar shall represent a God-centred life.
imagine if the jar broke, which akin to a broken relationship with God, it becomes meaningless to hold the others that is in the jar, everything will be hay-wired, not in place.

a random thought though, may not sound reasonable..

just thot of letting out my thoughts before i lost them again.. (:

today at e-grp was super lost... nv once i felt this way...
truely experience what is the meaning of mental blocked...

thank God for answering my prayer... for helping me to start focusing again..
if not, guess i wont even have any take away tonight...
i felt the atmosphere was kinda... then again my feelings can be wrong,.. ahha!

as we shared, God put this qns within me. What is the basis of my principles?
my answer will be the truth from the bible. and the application is to pray in faith.
it reminded me once again what i shared with bee lan and the grp of ladies...
we recapped last week's sermon and what are our views of God - occassional, supplemental, circumstancial or fundamental.

to me, God is fundamental (at least more prone to this than the others). although He may not be on my mind 24 hrs a day, but God is my foundation. He is where i draw my strength from. most of the time, i can be communicating with God, maybe not in prayer but simply conversing... He is so real to me..

took a walk home and said a long prayer on my way back home.. and i felt hungry! ^_^

hee, i saw more photos... so shall add again... not sure why my pictures are so small.. so bear with it k..

this is taken on wen wei's (my e-grp Leader) 'bur'day celebration...

US! (xintong still in china then...)

the 'sabotaged' wenwei

one thing i know - we are too nice! (: (by e look of e 2..)



hmmm, i wonder whose idea for me to hold those...


alright, the ladies...

hee, these last 2 photos seem so ancient! (think i took from alicia's blog)

i remembered it was in one of the church camp (not sure which yr).. my cousin and i came late for camp, she was later la, to the extend i pasted a post-it on our door to let her know which rm i was in.. (: oh and her 'neng-ka' haha...

and guess the one with sharon was when we were slacking and being nonsense.. haha as usual..

realised my blog is so dull! full of words and not much pictures. decided to post some pics from my work comp, since i am so bored of invoicing...

it was meant to be a christmas gathering for most GB girls, but it turned out to be only 3 of us! well, then we decided to go ahead... went to PS for our fav, thai express, and clarke Quay TCC.



this is funny... it says: -
WANTED GOOD MAN
must be able to clean, sew and care for 6 children.
Must have PROOF OF INCOME ^_^ (think the proof is the catch.. interesting)


yeah.. the 2 of them... (:

i was trying to cut up elisa's small burger HP chain.. (alot of ppl asked what i was savouring, guess i can pose well.. (: )


evident of she (elisa) abusing me...







yeah.. 3 of us...

Tuesday, January 08, 2008

today jieying came to lunch with me! how silly can it be to get from city hall to suntec? well, ask her k. waited till 1pm for lunch.. haha.. (she left her hse at 1130am)

had a great time with her. and glad she felt the time spent travelling down just to meet me for an hr was worth it! (: i truely hope i will be able to help her spiritually, but of cos, faith from her play a bigger role. pls remember those qns i posted to you! and i hope she will learn to priortise her stuff. so comforting to hear that she did up her 2008 resol with her sis..

and today had the 2nd session of bible study on philippians, and Audrey joined us today! (:
i really hope the sessions we had together are going to help each other in their walk with the Lord. indeed, it is ministering to me.

i had an exciting study today, for i can quote lots of references!! yay!! haha... from Jude, Heb, Cor, Col... wow... maybe phil is an easy-to-understand book i guess.. (: we completed... i think 3 verses... i am excited abt phil 2, esp the one on... shiny stars. my fav section.
i realised i am getting more and more excited when it comes to reading the bible..
God's word is living and active, by reading His word, then can we understand and know that He is the true and only God!

i thank the Lord for the passion i have to beginning seriously in reading His word. kinda to a point that i felt it is addictive.. (:

but realised sometimes i will lack determination, will fall asleep... haha mom says for her, she read best in toilet! hmmm... children shouldn't learn bad habits from adults.. (:


anyway browse through my photos and reminded me of those times, think this was taken in 2006.. (:

remembered this being the first camp i was the camp commandant! (:








Monday, January 07, 2008

okie, this song came to my mind like just only! was reminded of how great our God is.
oh did i mention yesterday @ worship, we sang 'How Great Is Our God' again! this song had been ministering to me. my cousin would agree with me! we were both together all the times it was sung. indeed it is God's reminder that He is great!


You are God alone
You are not a god
Created by human hands
You are not a god
Dependant on any mortal man
You are not a god
In need of anything we can give
By Your plan, that’s just the way it is

[chorus]
You are God alone
From before time began
You were on Your throne
Your are God alone
And right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
You are God alone

You’re the only God
Whose power none can contend
You’re the only God
Whose name and praise will never end
You’re the only God
Who’s worthy of everything we can give
You are God
And that’s just the way it is

[bridge]
Unchangeable
Unshakable
Unstoppable
That’s what You are

Sunday, January 06, 2008

oh yeah, another song that is in my mind today! we often sang this in 34th, it has been some time since i last heard about it though till today! (:

Lord, i truely offer all i have to you. i just yearn for you to fill my heart with your everlasting love! and indeed, You are all that i want and all that i ever needed! (:


Draw me close to You
Draw me close to You
Never let me go
I lay it all down again
To hear You say that I'm Your friend

You are my desire
No one else will do'
Cause nothing else could take Your place
To feel the warmth of Your embrace
Help me find the way
Bring me back to You

You're all I want
You're all I've ever needed
You're all I want
Help me know You are near
hmmm supposed to be doing strategic management proj... but well... decided to blog about some thots first and share on my weekends, wonder where all my sat and sun go to.

had cca fair @ Jys to teach balloons. hmmm, is nice to see church ppl working together and the dynamics is different-maybe cos we came with a communicated and common goal. spent some time with the girls, had fun and cracked silly laughters. initially suggested for them to go around rah-rah to catch girls' attention, but the cheers were not suitable, by then, the sec 1s had gone up. this reminded me of SHs, maybe 34th girls are more rah-rah, still remembered how i tried sewing a big-tee to fit like 2 ppl, walking around with it as a banner... so much fun back then. kinda missed it... (:

after the whole fair, was abit exhausted since i woke up so early!
had lunch, was funny la... i meant the whole session. was nice to have a changed evironment and work with different ppl. quite anticipating to see how things gonna work out when CE actually begins..

had dinner with law and oi. i was really happy to see the improvement of situation. i felt good things are working well. then spent some time chit chatting with law.. and was so happy to FINALLY meet up with Sylvia! (:
so nice to see her and hear from her again.. although she is like leaving on mon...

then on sunday....
i liked pastor vincent's message today on Thinking Big! *wasted, dont have my pen to take down!* but i remembered we Think Big cos we have a Big God Who gave us Big Goal... he hasnt complete yet though.. (thought to pen here to recap) i liken the part on the views of God ppl have. one thing i catch is God is fundamental, the foundation, He is not occassional. we dont blame God when things are not in our way, neither do we praise Him only when He is good to us, we should Give thanks and Praise Him in all Circumstances! this is rather clear to me, and i am really glad because of this, i wouldn't mind going through stormy seas to let Him teach and mould me. Truely, it is amazing when you experience how God can work through you in trying times.

today began the first session of ABF 1. kinda funny, not sure if how things gonna work though. so many ppl asked me how was the session, hmmm.... i replied pastor i felt young there.. (duh!) and the session today was alright, a usual 'get to know one another' kinda stuff. awaiting to see more stuff though, guess it should be pretty exciting to learn from the 'more adults' i guess. can keep for future reference. first few sessions can be pretty weird, especially after getting used to Kaleo, but then again, by not giving some time to explore further,how to benefit from it? hmm... just like it takes 2 hands to clap la..

had some personal thoughts (not gonna share in details, just thought need to let it out somewhere)
no one is perfect (not sure if this is an overused excuse). and i think different ppl hold different views due to our character and we are all special that God made us to be. i usually chose to give the benefit of doubt that ppl are nice too. (: okie this is a good thing to be simple.. i really think it is a priviledge to be simple la, aint it?? haha... so i can never get it when ppl start to think so complicated. Dont worry about tml! (:

My work desk is sooo messy.... (: been piling up with files and paper...

now i am waiting for the printer (whereby 4 of us are sharing) to print my documents. think i am still quite far away from the Q.. still have alot to print...



yay! i survived the yr end closing! (: it was tough, but i guess is still manageable.. thank God for this!



a little complaint about sch....

i still have a huge pile of notes to complete reading asap.. hmmm 200 pages... i wonder how long i will take! this sem, we have to print all notes by ourselves! total 3 modules that i took, i need to print about 500 pages i guess. haven really thought of ways to print them, at least i know 74pages are settled. a little step at a time... ^_^



For OB, managed to tap onto Bryan!! yeah... using this as an excuse for him to meet me! (i know u miss me very much & so nice of u to come down to suntec!!) that can save about 200 plus pages hopefully. (also provided the owner kept it intact) *praying*



i can sense that stress alert button is coming on soon, with so many things that is going to happen. i wonder at times, am i being overloaded. yet, i am happy to be busy, to be doing all the stuff.. haha.. kinda weird.



tml gotta wake up early again... will be down to jys for balloons...
so encourage to hear from avril that she is going down shs for cca fair with carmen, somemore taking leave. well, for a full timer like me, i think leaves are very impt. haha.. so will be praying for them instead. Not being bias, but jys is on sat. see.

okie, my turn to print...

"This is Madness!" haha, agreed with yx on this!

today attended the first day of school, apparently today is the 2nd lesson, because i missed the 1st on the 27th Dec (i really didnt expect sch to begin on the 27th Dec, since usually it begins only in Jan) - lesson learnt : wrong to assume, always confirm.

was given an assignment due in 3 weeks time, and at least 3000 words! it suposed to be a team of 3 but we cant form it so is just going to be me and yx. 1st assignment, 2 ppl, 3 weeks to churn out 3000 words! and to add on to it, yx is doing audit internship at deloitte, hmmmm.. it gonna be OT days for her. i wonder how we can complete it. i foresee that i will have only abt 2hrs to do on weekdays night (assuming no sch) and perhaps abt 6-8 hrs on weekends to work on the proj. so total abt 22 hrs.

3000/3 wks = 1000 words/wk
1000/22 hrs = 45.454545 words which is about 46 words.

hmmm, it may seem easy but i haven add in the reading up of materials! heard that it is about 100 over pages. oh no, it gonna take me more than a day, maybe abt 6 hrs. oh no...

and thanks to this lesson, i gonna miss this friday e-grp and another, which i think is on 18th jan. hmmm... dunch like to miss though, dunch like the feeling to pause and getting lost... well, shall get notes from ppl and of cos do my part as per schedule.

this few days been reading up on Hebrews, it has been a great experience.. hope to preserve this 'hunger for word' and heart of worship for the Lord.

i dont really have any new year resolution set for this year, every yr my resolution is to finish the bible.. hmmm.. but it doesnt happen. haha.. well, at least one of it succeeded which is to remain faithful in all circumstances! (hahaha reminded me of my dental incident. that was funny. )

thinking abt teaching CE soon, i should really buck up on my bible knowledge... oh no.. it sound so scary again..... heh.. saw the schedule SL sent, it gonna be only abt once or twice a month. seems quite alright though. (: but so lazy to head back to SIM on sat afternoons for lesson... spoilt my sats...
This song had been lingering in my head since last sunday...
and been using it as a prayer too.

God and God alone
God and God alone
created all these things we call our own
From the mighty to the small
the Glory in them all is
God's and God's alone

Chorus:
God and God alone
is fit to take the universe's throne
Let everything that lives reserve it's truest praise for
God and God alone

God and God alone
reveals the truth of all we call unknown
and the best and worst of man
wont change the Master's plan
it's God's and God's alone

God and God alone
will be the joy of our eternal home
He will be our one desire
Our hearts will never tire of
God's and God's alone

Happy New Year 2008!

my new year eve was well spent this year! or rather it was meaningful. headed to boat quay after watching NAtional Treasure. was trying to catch the fire works but somehow our view was blocked by the tall building - hmmm... so no choice daniel, elisa and me just to try and head towards the direction which gave us a better view. (think our initial spot was better, should have gotten law, alicia and ter to find us there!) (:

anyway, we didnt count down together since we headed separately. hence, logically my countdown were with elisa and Daniel, haha. indeed, it is nice to spend countdown with e-grp or rather with brothers and sisters in christ!

afterwhich, headed to chomp chomp for supper.. hmmm but most shops are closed, so had a drink and head back home. (:

nice new yr spent! thank God for bringing us together!and is nice to have liting and elisa to join in... (:

ah my thanksgiving for year 2007



first and foremost, there are a few major transitions this year!

-getting into the working society and schling @ the same time.

-moving into a new e-grp

-moving out from 34th



okie, this year a few major incidences too! (:

shall begin how my thoughts bring me k...



I thank God for...



His protection! most of those i meet every week should know about the fall i have in May.
ppl that saw and even doctor himself, commented i am very fortunate, for it is less than a cm or 2 to reach my right eye. i call this 'blessing'. for those who didnt know, my right eye is very precious for it is my most powerful eye, thus i have a sypmtom - left eye is perfect eyesight, right eye is 3.25 deg. see, how precise is my Lord that save my right eye! (:



His faithfulness! be it at work or doing ministry work, i thank Him for being there and holding me on to complete the task given to me. starting to work wasnt easy, especially when i made mistakes and feeling low and down, but i recover fast! thanks to His faithfulness. the verses that i always have with me during those times are Heb 13:5b, Pslam 121:1-2, Col 3:23-24.

His blessing! as i looked back, God blessed me richly... with a new grp, He blessed me with a renewed passion in His word, a strengthened faith, and a heart on fire for Him (hearts on fire is my ex-youth grp!). the ppl in the e-grp had been a great support too! learning from one another and to be prayfully remembering each other. each and everyone in the e-grp had blessed me in their ways and truely i appreciated that! *from the bottom of my heart*
people tat God helped me to know better have been a great blessing too! (hmmm too many to name)

the only 2 that i have not thank are ELISA and LITING! haha... you both have been a great blessing since we knew each other. thanks for seeing through my ups and downs, my struggles, my happiness, and of cos for being there physically(or just ur ears) when i needed someone. (yeah eli, ur freq call back from aus) glad to know ppl like you both whom i can call into the wee hours! (: and how we can understand one another even without communicating.. simply much much appreciated! three cheers! multi cheers!!!

the last few days towards end of 07 had been a challenge for me. speaking to ms gan abt my leaving from 34th and sharing with her my passion of service wasnt an easy task for me, i struggled and i prayed. Thank God for the wonderful sharing we had. For the understanding, and for the blessing she gave. it was really peace in my heart when i have finally settled and shared my decision with her.

God's timing is always so perfect. coming back to church after i met ms gan, su-lynn approached me to lead a bs grp. without taking time to consider, i agreed! i felt wonderful to be able to share my faith with ppl. After i made that decision, into the night, fear creeped all over me la! hmmm... thanks to law and cousin though, for the encouragement. you both have been so supporting and ever having that confidence in me... (maybe is just i dun have in myself) (:
but sunday worship and message left a big impact on me. it spoke so real to me, that i nearly broke into tears! but i truely felt God's faithfulness and His promise to be there with me in all circumstances. so now, i am anticipating with excitment. (also cos i know, there are ppl ard helping me! HOR???? *arrowing those i shared this with*) haha...

so far, this should round up my thanksgiving to God this year. i pray for a great yr ahead for all, and for all to experience Him deeper and to taste His wonderful love! (:

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008!
Lead Us Lord (Dream Again)
Here we stand
At a crossroads again
Like you said
In time the seasons change

Looking back
We recall the blessing and the pain
But now we turn our hearts toward
What is still to come
We want to dream again

Lead us Lord
Into a life of fruitfulness
Prepare our hearts to risk again
As we trust
Taking simple steps of obedience we know
That you will lead us Lord

this song has been constantly on my mind as i thought of the many thanksgiving i have.
i am not sure if this is the right decision made... anyway i made it.. (:

went mind cafe with the drill comm ppl, there's always so much fun meeting them,
though i was tired and abit reluctant to meet. glad i went (:

and yesterday, yawling replied to my email verbally.
as she announced, as of 1/1/08, i will be taking over her role as a chairman.
fear overwhelmed me when the conversation cont. hmmm... i am still feeling it now though..

mengru said it will be a good learning platform for me to speak/work at national level,
i also thought the experience of working with more and different ppl is good.
to speak at national level, think i will just freak out! oops...
(i also shared with the group that, in fact i am considering other areas of service too, running abit dry in Gb for the past decade i guess, thought of doing something more different. since i made my decision, shall take this 2 yrs as an experience and also to open my eyes to see the areas of service, since i will be officially out of 34th next yr) - where else can i serve?

always love sweet messages by Joey.
thanks for the encouragements and ur assurance of my great potential.. (:

i don't have any great potential, just doing the task given to the best i could.

and last night, i did up my thanksgiving....
gosh so long list!!! if i were to be like lawrence to list the ppl, it will be a really long list!
heh...
but as i recall the major incidents/phrases of this year,
i truely thank God for His protection, His blessing, and His grace.
shall post it later... (: is really a long list!!

funny pics taken during christmas celebrations @ Justin's place..


we decided to take at least 1 decent shot (:
some random pose again... (if u notice, you should be able to see an extrra hand! JS!right on top)

alright, this last photo, suppose to show that "we are lovely" faces...
see, aren't we all adorable? (: erm, as for dan... hmmm.. haha, but nice pose.. (:







so long! (:

Christmas has been a busy period for me usually..
even more so this year, since i started working and with the deadlines to meet.

looking back this year, i looked at it with a smile.
sometimes i really thank God for moulding me the way He did.
it does dawn upon me if naturally i am too cheerful (or simply put it i dont care?),
struggles(esp in work) became rather easy for me to handle.
(maybe like what others say, simple faith)

on the 2nd day of the kaleo camp,
i learn that i cannot take all modules in the last sem,
which means i will drag my studies by half a yr.

honestly, i was bothered initially, (heh, who wont!) haha..
but this didnt cloud my mind though.
the whole day my mind was on the worship that i am going to lead.
so whole day, my heart and my mind were singing! (:
(isn't it wonderful to be singing praises whole day!)

thinking back, all this donest matter to me i guess.
the verse that i have been holding on is Col 3:23-24.

this week, gonna share thanksgiving for e-grp.
so many things to thank God for, even little things like sending a cab when i needed it badly! (:
haven consolidate much.. will do so soon..

this song has been in my mind the very 1st day i started planning for worship...
even till now.. (:

The splendor of a King, Clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice,
All the earth rejoice
He wraps himself in light,
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at his voice,
And trembles at his voice

How great is our God,
sing with me
How great is our God,
and all who sing How great, How great
Is our God

Age to age he stands
And time is in His Hands
Beginning and the End,
Beginning and the End
The Godhead, Three in one
Father, Spirit, Son
The Lion and the Lamb,
The Lion and the Lamb

How great is our God,
sing with me
How great is our God,
and all who singHow great, How great
Is our God

Name above all names
You are Worthy of all praise
and My heart will sing how great
Is our God

Daddy has a new-found-young bowler fren! haha... he is working in Apple..
i asked Dad to find out if any staff price for this and i will grab it (or rather get Dad to get it). Dad asked.. guess what? the bowler fren said is not worth it! *heh?* he recommended i-phone (which he is using) to my dad, & offered to obtain one for me, if i am keen.

Sorry, i am not interested in that for now...

You Are An ENFJ

The Giver

You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and usually succeed.Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections.Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down.You find the most energy and comfort in social situations ... where you shine.

In love, you are very protective and supporting.However, you do need to "feel special" - and it's quite easy for you to get jealous.

At work, you are a natural leader. You can help people discover their greatest potential.You would make a good writer, human resources director, or psychologist.

How you see yourself: Trusting, idealistic, and expressive


When other people don't get you, they see you as: Bossy, inappropriate, and loud

inside the lift.. so exciting...








upon arriving... look at the wide corridors! wait till you see the room... (:


the nice scenary... (:


welcome by the big entrance!




abit small the pics but the room is really big with 2 king size beds! you can really roll from one end to the other, both boo and ali did somersaults inside.. i think at least 2...





the retreat was a time of being intimate with God once again despite the mnay tight schdeules... and i am glad i went! we had a 3 hrs of ETWG, my first time doing it for so long! e most i took was abt an hr or slightly more...



besides simply ETWG, we played BANG! the ultimate game of the retreat... why we are hooked? i also dunno... (: i think most importantly is the ppl playing with too!






so big is the room that it holds 2 grps playing bang... the focus of this photo is actually on boo posing with her 'gun'. all with different reactions, my cousin (on my left) thot is a grp photo, ali beside boo was scratching, thinking who is who in the game, ter with the extremem cant be bothered with us face.




alright that's all... i thank God for allowing this trip with 4 cars going up to AH & Jusco. and of cos the journey mercies, my car got lost and there were only 4 of us... phew, we got it there still.. (: quite exciting afterall...

Secrets - Is such a nice movie......

Went to watch with laine and wen, gosh!
think they were bombarded by me! haha... actually, sometimes i suspect is my comprehensive skills so bad? (: asked alot of qns abt Secrets after we came out from cinema...

Jay is so 'cool' in the movie.. i simply love it when he is on the piano... i nv find him attractive, wasnt so into him (not that i am now), but the way he is on the piano in the show is simply beyond my description.

discussed with them abt the show, and realised i asked alot of qns pertaining it. after bro watched, discussed with him and found something new! wow... so amazing, it is just a movie and i am reading so much into the details, reading it like a book.. haha.. it was nice seriously. think need appreciative ppl to truely understand the movie. (: like me! (:

will be going AGAIN to watch Secrets with my darling yuxin. (: nv once i watched a movie twice, but this is really nice i guess.. (: guess she will agree with me...

going back to work tml... so fast... the 4 long days of break seems so short.... (:

my 3rd day at EY...

today woke up only at 805am!!! got awoken by a very bad nightmare... ):

anyway i realised it was really late.. thank God my senior smsed me if i m on my way to office.. well, she stayed in kembangan so she took a cab down and picked me, then we headed towards SMOE(sembawang shipyard). btw everyday my trip to SMOE is by cab.. cos can claim..

i think auditing is a job that i think i may want to pick up.. (: i like e job scope.. maybe some can say only for now, but there is an assurance in me that i nv felt be4.. well.. maybe is not wad is for me.. still early to speak..

haha.. today did alittle more higher stuff compared to 1st 2 days of vouching amt. was gven a task by senior to enquire e accounts clerk abt why the Trade Creditors acc reduced by so much and to ask abt certain other issues as well as to check some supporting documents. i was,of cos NERVOUS! cos not sure if i asked the right way and the right thing. well, usually accounts clerk dun like auditors cos they find them like some "sharks", chasing after them for this and that, usually at the wrong time.

today this lady i approached, i was scared of her.. i think she was scared of me.. haha.. but well we treated each other very nicely.. she received 2 calls and she told the caller that she will call back cos the AUDITOR (me) was with her.. hee... cos 1st time someone call me an auditor, felt very shuang.. haha... told yuxin, she laughed at me! everyone got his first time k... @least told elisa, she only laughed but not at me! (:

then had lesson today.. always look forward to going lesson with yuxin, cos she will just made me laughed my head off at her sometimes, well i do make her laugh too k! (: haha my darling..

had my first internship day at EY, gonna last for 2 mths till 23rd feb..

it was really cool when i went up to the office, guess cos it is a new building that i went to. i belong to F21, Team 3. (seems like 21 is my no, TPJC class was 02S21 and i m still 21 yrs old!)

every full time auditor with them received a pencil case filled with all kinds of stationery, a calculator, a working bag and a laptop. for us, interns, only the pencil case and cal. not bad though.. seems professional..

when i entered the office full of auditors, they sort of emitted a sense of "PRO-NESS".. really a kind of charisma... WOW!

the auditors dunch have fixed tables so what they do is, there is a lot of open spaces filled with tables and chairs, so each team will just gather ard and discuss etc... (look like a canteen sort but of cos is not benches, is long comp tables and office chairs).

then after 2 hrs of all the waiting and admin and intro, i went off with a senior to SMOE, at sembawang. and begins a small part of my life as an auditor... (:
