First Day

Today is a special day for me. Now I am sitting in front of the computer and blogging. I have not touched on the computer since last night. It's quite impossible for me. When I was at home, alone, I will be sitting in front of the computer and surfing he internet till my mum come back from work. I also watch some dramas.

Today is my first day of work. It's a fresh start for me. Knowing new people and learning the hard work. Today, my senior just let me refer to one company so that I can review the work done and familiar with the job I will be doing in the future. Besides, she also teaches me and my new colleague on the system they use in the company.

Halfway thru the learning process, my boss called to ask some of us to go to his office to have a talk. First time go to his office and talk to him. Btw, he is a YB in my hometown. 30++ years of experience in accounting and still in the process of learning. This is what he said during the conversation.

Besides, I also 'given' a laptop for my own use. For me, it is heavy. Heavier than my laptop which is now in my brother custody. I have to bring back home and bring to office everyday. Whao..

For me, the environment of the company is good. The seniors are willing to teach us who are still new in the company. The employee benefit also nice, I think. There will be a birthday dinner this friday for the March 'baby'. But, I think not included me.. Haha.. (as I didn't see my name in the birthday 'baby' list) But, it's ok for me..

So.. I'm here to say thank you to Diana for the good luck and encouragement. I hope also Diana and Soke Yee will enjoy the work life and good luck with it..

Thought For Days

Cheerfulness
The one who possesses cheerfulness becomes like a magnet of goodwill.

Think First
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Whatever I do, when all is said and done, I do for or to myself. Perhaps I should think before I perform actions because after the seed of action is sown I have to reap the fruit. Moreover, I do not receive only one fruit for every seed sown, I often get a whole crop, good or bad according to the action or seed.

Attachment
The root of suffering is attachment. You have created a space in your mind that holds a person or object as part of you. When that person or object is criticized, neglected or not with you, you feel pain in your mind and you experience a sense of loss. If you want to be happy, you must learn to love and appreciate while remaining independent.

The Best
The best ornament is Humility; The richest wealth is Wisdom; The strongest weapon is Patience; The best security is Faith; The best tonic is Laughter

New Start..

Next Monday will be the first day I go to work. Nervous and anxious are the feelings I am having now to wait for Monday to come. It's not that I have not work in firm before, it's just that, this time, I have to go to the office by myself. Last time having my industrial training, I went to a firm with my friends. I got the accompany of my friends. So, it won't be a big deal for me to work in a firm. But, this time is different. I have to go alone. A bit worry.. Just hope that I can cope with it and do a good job. Gambateh..

This afternoon I went to hair salon to have a hair cut. Actually no difference in my hair style. Just have it shorter and less thicker. This is to make sure that I have a good appearance for my first job and also my convo.. Haha.. Dunno why I always have a hair cut before my convo.

A hair cut represent a new start for me. Just hope that I have a good time in my work and enjoy it.

Btw, to my friends (Soke Yee and Diana), hope you guys enjoy your work life and plus oil.. See u guys in the convo..

Plus oil.. ^^v

Confused..

These few days, I have been thinking if I had made a good choice. Choosing to work in a medium firm rather than big firm. If I told the others I am going to work in ACC, some of them will ask why not EY. I don't know what to answer them. I had send both the company my resume. But, only ACC called me and I accept it. As I think I can learn more in this company as I can learn both audit and tax. In my opinion, I can learn more in small firm.

The thing that worried me the most is my pay is not enough to cover all my expenses that I need to pay. Especially my loans that I took during my studies. Loans, expenses at home and so on.. Eveything is about money. I'm not sure I can arrange and plan the use of the money wisely. Haii..

What can I say now. 'Fan'..

Thought For Days

Create A Peaceful Thought
When your open your eyes in the morning, sit for a moment and appreciate the gift of a new day, create a peaceful thought and enjoy some moments of silence throughout the whole day.

Contentment
Contentment is a great virtue, though it may not attract one's attention at first. Those who are truly content are usually quiet about it. It is a pleasure to be in their company, because they are full, peaceful, and generous.

Humility
Humility grows a little more each time I step away from my own feelings and opinions and genuinely listen to the experience of another human being. Humility is dedication to the extent that no acknowledgement is sought for the self. Only when I have learned to value others no more or less than I value myself can I be said to be truly humble.

Positive Thoughts
Positive thoughts are like good software that helps us to perform to the best of our abilities.

Well-Wisher
The method to remove worry is to become a well-wisher for all and thus stop using the mind and wasting your time thinking about things in the wrong way.

Oh My.. Oh My..

Since I came back from UK, I have been resting for almost 3 months. In this 3 months, there were good and bad things happen. I had my advanced diploma convocation in November and took 2 papers for my acca exam in December. First day of January, blistered myself with hot water. Gosh.. In February, I finally find a job and get the offer. Besides, my acca result out.

Next month is March. Starting from March, I will start my working life as an audit assistance. March may be a sign of my new life. I ave to wake up early and sleep early in order to have enough sleep. Besides, I just have Sunday to have a relaxing day as I got to work six days a week from March to August. Plus oil...

In the middle of the month, I will go KL to attend my SHU convocation. I think I got the chance to meet my friends there since I didn't meet them after the college convocation. Looking forward to that.

Moreover, my birthday also in March. Getting older already. Haii.. Some of my friends also celebrate their birthday in March. Hope that their wishes will come true and Happy Birthday to them.

To people who just start to work, enjoy the working life and all the best....
