My absence and lack of posts can only be due to one thing.
WORK.
It's been relatively ok actually.
But just that by the time I get home all I want to do is sleep.
Haha.
I'm definitely not working as hard as Michele though, who has unfortunately dipped her toes in too many areas.
She's been running around a heck lot more than I am.
Always out of the office for photo shoots, sourcing and whatnot.
While I have been out of the office, yes for sourcing too, but I seem to be able to take my time to walk around town looking for suitable things, occasionally stopping to peer into Pull and Bear or Zara and getting myself a drink from Orange Julius.
Haha!
SHHHHHH.
Don't tell anyone!

And of course, there's been the insane amount of feasting.
Places I've been to (and have been given VIP treatment) are Dolce Vita@The Oriental, Fish&Co.@Paragon, Marche@Vivocity, Say Cheezecake@Great World City.
My next week is just as packed.
Mon - Cilantro Modern Asian@Purvis Street
Tues - Steward's Riverboat@Marina South
Wed - Photo shoot@Yew Tee and Purence Dew Water Launch@The Boiler Room
Thurs - Fujitsu Launch@VivoCity

Gosh.
I really love working in the media!


Well.
I'm really enjoying this change in lifestyle actually.
The transition from being a student to being a semi-professional.
(Though not being paid, but then again, I knew what I was getting into.)
And this has no doubt brought about changes to the way I am, the way I see things, the way i feel about things.
It's scary.
It really is.
Perhaps it has been occupying my time so well.
Perhaps it has been that final step in securing my confidence and doing well on my own.
But suddenly,
It struck me that I am going have to unlearn all of this in an instant.
I'm not sure what to do, if I want to, but I know I have to.
Not entirely,
but having to
re-adapt, re-adjust and re-align
is just
daunting.


I'm at a total loss.

I. Absolutely. Adore. Her. Dress.
and her
gorgeous
Christian Louboutins.

Sigh.
Why doesn't money grow on trees?
(or at least, why aren't i getting paid?)

I can't believe 2 weeks has already passed since the start of my internship.
I suppose I'm finally getting the hang of things and adapting well to the working environment there.
Making new friends and giving other people a second chance (due to miserable first impressions).
Also, I'm learning how the industry works and all the hard work that goes into making sure the magazine you get every month, and flip through once or twice in about half an hour, is out at newsstands on time with worthy editorial articles.
Of course, there are the various situations that I have been thrown into or have found myself unintentionally caught up in.

I'm kinda raring to go for another week.

But behind me all the way has been God.
He's been giving me that extra strength and confidence that has been pulling me through each time.
(:

P/s: My hands and blue cardigan are famous! Watch this space for more!

I don't really know what quite to make of my first week of work.
Except that perhaps it has been bearable and the two food-tasting sessions were the highlights of my week.
Especially since I got to dine at such a high-end restaurant that serves food I'll probably never get to eat again in my life because I can't afford to. And also the free bread I got to take home from Marche.
Haha.
Cheap thrill, I know.

There were the rather horrible moments too but I shan't elaborate on this blog.
If you want to find out more, ask me.

Oh.
Do ask me out on Friday nights!
Because its the end of the week and its rather sad to have to go straight home.
Heh.
JY, hurry up and come back to Singapore!

And finally,
just a very simple question.
Where did my weekend go?

just one word.

EXHAUSTED

...

I guess its just inevitable.

Despite the exciting prospect of gluttony and indulgence as the fringe benefits as mentioned in an earlier blog entry, the jitters are seeping in fast and furious.

I am nervous.
Very nervous.
Sigh.

It doesn't help that I'm so unsure and weary of the bus timing.
Chances are that I'll be really early but I suppose its a lot better than being late.
And it gives me the time to look for the main entrance of the building as well as where the office is.
Haha.
I can't help it if I'm a directional-idiot!

Oh well.
Since I pretty much can't do anything to help the potential situation,
I'm leaving it all in God's safe hands.
He'll know what to do when I need help and provide that extra, and essential, ounce of confidence.

Pray for me alright?
(:
