finally! i've got a job..!

long time back when i was still studying.. i always tell ppl that i cant wait to study finish n work.. n their replies are always the same.. "work?? u've nv work before so u duno.. wait till u really start work.. den u'll regret n want to go back to studying.. trust me."

years down the road.. im working already.. and i im not regretting. in fact, im very eager to go to work.. i look forward to earning my salary.. because i have certain goals in life.. and the only way to achieve them is to work..

i'm must say.. i am actually very fortunate.. i was jobless for 5-6 mths.. and 1 day i accepted a temp admin job of $7/hr.. i must say as a graduate.. not many ppl are willing to do so.. but well.. i didnt want to rot away at home anymore.. so what the hell.. i just jumped right in.. i didnt even know wad was the job about when i signed the contract.. i was tt desperate..

1st day at work i realise i was in the events & promo dept. not bad! at least i got into the correct dept with regards to my major.. although the job title n description can be way better off... so i basically "bao sua bao hai".

times passed.. an opportunity presented itself to me.. the position that i was suppose to help assit was suddenly vacant.. thus.. i basically took over the position.. but still with my "temp pay".. im fortunate.. that my boss tot enough of me to asked me if i wanted to convert..i was more than happy!

now.. 3 months in.. i've got a job doing events.. i get to interact with different kinds of ppl from all over.. i get to go to different locations.. to liaise with convention centres, restaurents, clubs, venues, n all that.. n of cos with all tt.. the admin & logistics work still remain.. but im contented.. im being paid well.. and im finally on my way to the future that i want.

most importantly of all.. i have my gf.. who has been ever so supportive of me.. while i was jobless.. she gave me moral support n encourage me when i was losing my motivation and sense of self-importance..

when i started working.. naturally our time together is cut down by a whole lot.. with this.. she feels sad at times.. cos we do miss each other a whole lot.. but at the same time.. we are still very happy.. cos even though im working.. n she is working part-time n studying.. we still find the time to meet up and go out.. i feel loved.. n im sure she feel the same way too.. ppl will say its tiring to do so.. to meet up after work n all tt.. but im not tired. not at all. in fact i feel very eager to do so..

as u can probably see already.. im often quite the contrary to wad ppl normally say.. ppl in normal acadamic cannot make it in life.. being nice guy doesnt get u anywhere(or any girl).. u'll nv understand certain things n situations.. u'll prefer studying n hate working.. u'll feel tired to meet ur gf after work.. these are just some of the many that i've heard..

i do n see things the way i see them.. ppl are bais and have thier own views.. so do i.. i know that i will be happy.. i know that we'll be happy (me n my gf).. i know that she(my gf) will be happy..

i am indeed.. very fortunate.. in the recent months when i started to work.. is actually the first time in my life that i feel im actually doing something constructive towards my future.. its like.. im finally starting to move a couple of steps closer.. and i couldnt be happier to do so.. i've been looking forward to this point in time for so long.. n its finally here.. and im sure.. as always.. stupid things that ppl say wun hv much effect on me..

so.. look out world!!! dun stand in my way! if not me n my gf will just trample over u without any regret! ;p

p.s. my future = me n my gf's future together.. as most of our frens know.. i cant wait to hv that future that we always wanted =)
baby.. i'll always support u no matter wad.. u are my pillar of love n hope n all things good.. i am the same for u too. ^^
as i write this post.. esp the parts where i mentioned about my gf.. that i feel that my eyes become that little bit more watery.. i am very fortunate.. because i have you baby.. =)
we'll pull through together.. no matter how small the steps.. at least we're heading towards the direction that we want.. =)
