new phase...

hmmm

I have decided that there are about 10 phases in life?

1st phase: the baby/toddler/kindergarten phase

The first 6 years of my life was a total blur. hehehe Nonetheless I have little memories of them. Here's to name a few: Had a pair of shoes that was labelled left and right (the first brilliant pair of funky shoes that I've ever had). First childhood crush was a boy named Christopher. I bit my brother. Don't ask why. Not quite a blur after all eh?

2nd phase: Primary School phase

was in 2 different primary schools. my little brother was born. I wanted my little brother to sleep in my room. Little brother cries a lot. Revised plan to NOT let little brother sleep in my room. Made tons of friends in school (doesnt mean i was famous, just notorious) and can still remember them by their full names for example, Anne Charlotte Cheong Sweet King (giggle. sorry charlotte). Whether they are correct or not, I'm not sure. Don't sue me. =P

 

3rd phase: Secondary School phase

Had a lousy time in high school. Why? Braces+thick maroon specs+tent-like skirts+goofy hairstyles= school geek. Nonetheless, had a few hilarious memories like .... like..... it's all a blur now. =P Oh got my driver's licence after like a gazillion times. =P Don't ask.

4th phase: College phase

Couldn't wait to get out of high school and start college! whoopie! Any memories? Surprisingly and incredibly, I got myself a boyfriend. Seriously. like No way! hmmmm A levels was really fun despite the crazy college fees and exams. bleh! Gah. Fresh out of high school was not cool. Such an awkward transition. bleh! I would like to post some photos of that phase but I rather not.

5th phase: Uni phase

I think this was indubitably the best years of my life.....

the most insanely painful ones too....hmmm i think i hear my father's pocket weeping too. =S

I think all pharmacy students will agree with me. hmmm and I've forged some friendships that can never be lost but only strengthen over time. I've learnt a lot and expanded my capacity. I have grown and become more independent.*shoves whiny-Jo aside* I shopped a lot! 'nuff said. Coming to Australia was the best thing that has happened to me. =)

And right now, I'm in my 6th phase: Working phase.

Time to work hard. Apply my knowledge and really use my brains. Gah! the learning never ends leh! hmmmm Time to suck it up and earn my keeps...... and pay papa back. Wakakakaka.

wow.....

time to kick back and reflect all that has happened over the week...

the week just flew by! ........ seriousLY! It was like a blink of an eye! It was like a heart beat! Everything happened in a flash!!!!

Sigh. I wish I could show you how my week went and how fast it felt. =)

 

Okok I'm blabbing! I think I need to recap and start from the beginning since I've been MIA for awhile.

So,.....Monday the 14th of December. I started work.

that's a significant moment in my entire life.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

More significant than my grad which is yet to occur. Which is coming right up really soon.

Graduation's on Tuesday! 22nd of December! Cool BANANAS!!! (Caught that catch phrase at work. it's so CUTE!!)

Anyway, this week has been awesome. I learnt so much. I'm still learning. I've got loads to learn. I've got loads to prepare. I'm super rusty with my knowledge. I feel so handicap cos I know I've learnt them but I left my brains in Adelaide....my notes and books are all there. I need to set time aside to read up my stuff. I need to be more prepared at work. I'm just a little bit lost this week cos I'm not yet settled with my environment and I'm nervous. I've got so much expectations on my shoulders and I'm afraid I let my boss down. I want to prove to him that I can do it. That I can do this well. I'm not just here to learn. I'm here to work. I'm here to put my knowledge into practice. Lord help me. I've come this far. Please help me do my best. Help me use my brains. Help me facilitate the knowledge I've crammed in for the past 4 years. I know I have really bad memory (but surprisingly I can remember movies and who acted in them and what's the storyline.... So surely, my memory aint that bad. humph.)

 

Not to worry I'll do better in the weeks to come.

Other than that...I had a realllllllllllllllly good week. I did a lot. I didn't just stand around. I did WORK! Unlike in placements, I would be kept aside and out of the way. But I really got to be useful I hope. Everyone's been patient with me, teaching me. It's been great. Sigh. I cannot thank them enough. I'm so eternally grateful. Everyone's so friendly and sweet.

I can't begin to thank God for my unexpected housemate/mentor. She's been the best and greatest help ever. She's truly God-sent. sigh. She's super cool and funny. It's uncanny that we have the same taste in certain stuff. Russel Peters!! HAHAHAHA

oh!!! COFFEE!!! Everyone at work loves coffee. Sigh. I couldn't ask for more. ....I haven't had the guts to bring my Nanyang coffee to work. HAHAHAHA We've got an espresso machine! .... So maybe NOT. Nanyang Coffee is like....cheap and Petaling Street Louis Vutton handbag next to the REAL LV handbag! HAHAHAHA

 

sigh I could go on with how awesome the week went.

But I won't. I just need to remind myself that it's just the beginning. I've got a long way to go. So I need to make the best out of it. =)

right... i'm gonna snuggle into bed now.=)

Lord? Thank you. HUGS! it's been awesome. Thank you for sending me here. Thank you for preparing the way for me to be here. Please bless everyone at work for they have blessed me. Bless my workplace. Amen.
