ramblings of an intern

Please forgive me if im rambling about nonsense again. I just cant help it. After 1.5 months, i ve finally completed and survived for my internship!! As long as im alive tomorrow :D

This is a record or an account for me so that i would never ever forget this experience, although i know i wont.

First hand experience:

- Office was almost igloo temperature. Too cold that it was so uncomfortable to work. Crazy enough, ppl wear sweaters and scarfs so that they would not be attacked by flu, esp the Ah1n1.
- Chewing gum craziness. I guess the amount of chewing gum i ate for only this month is at least equal or even exceed the amount of chewing gum that i ve eaten for the past 20 years. N i ve turned out to be the chewing gum supplier in the office. I have pellets, i have sticks, i have mints.. -.-ll - Ktm days. Running after a train, climbing high steps, being squeezed like a sandwich in crowded rides, walking hurriedly, grabbing seats. Worse if im wearing the thin, knee-lengthed skirts tat day.

- N the high heels coupled with long distance of quick walking has drew blisters and bubbles on my feet.

- I witnessed real world of working. Flexible working hours (start late, end late), but here, they work til midnite, often. Fortunately my bosses are kind enough to release me around 7, so that i can have mummy's dishes for dinner.

- There are free twisties, biscuits and coffee in the pantry!! - The toilets are executive style.. One consists of a bathing space and a toileting space. Then with a big mirror and ample space for you to check your attire.

- On a bright note, the ppl here are generally nice, and humorous. Kind to help, willing to share knowledge and experience, at the same time, committed in work.

- And on a even brighter note, they brought me around to try lots of delicious food around this area, which i ve nvr been. I like kin kin pan mee, yuk kee chicken chop, mamak style briyani rice.. etc etc. N thx to lunch times, they keep ppl moving forward to work and motivating :D

- Im glad that i do not observe organisation politics here.

- Another thing, with every employee given a laptop, paper usage should have been reduced. But i got the shock in my life when i see how much paper a firm uses every day. You do not count in piles, u count in bags!! N when they are forced to shred it instead of recycle it, i felt deeply sorry to the environment =(
Yaayy, farewell tomorrow :D
