Time flies, today marks the 1st year anniversary of my working life. Last year Sept 1, just like a yesterday for me, because I can remember what I had done on that day. Don’t know if my memory improved so that I can remember every single small thing, or if my working life is so boring and so routinely work that I can therefore remember what I did after so long.
Overall, I can tell you that working is not fun at all! Despite the stable income in every month, you actually achieve nothing. You will grow older (some people say it is “mature”), more wrinkles on your face, lifeless, loss motivation, you do know many people but none is your friend. Be frank, though it is stable income, but it is never enough when it comes to tax paying, house/car loan, daily expenses, petrol, and etc!! And you will see so called “Boss’s face”, “argument between colleagues”, “trick plays”, which has been part of my working life. Everyday after 5pm, you will be relieved but the next morning, all these resumed again.
About my second role here as postgrad in UNIMAS, apparently, my progress is super duper slow, because still on my very first phase: Sample Collection! I still have 20 patients to go, don't know when i can finish this task. Meanwhile, i am in the mid of optimizing my RNA yield and found out i actually lack of practice in lab techniques, especially on molecular works. Haven't done any PCR yet, so embarassing >.<. But, i did my first ELISA run after so many months since project started, at least i can contribute some "mini" data for my project.
Often, i think student life is the best life ever, although they don't have money, but what they do is what they like. Hang out with friends, yum cha, sing K, shopping, watch pirated download TVB drama at home etc... awww, i miss all these. Gosh, i am pretty sure if today is my 1st anniversary working life, it is gonna be more 2nd, 3rd.... 50th! Sigh, sometimes wonder why we still need to work while we don't like to work at all!!!

Agree with yeekai =)
Look at the brightside ya. There is always something worth to do this
Yeekai: haha, thanks for your blessing of my first anniversary of working life. I going to stick to this job for another 4 years! If everything goes smooth, of cause I will like this job. But there is no free lunch in this world, none of the job is perfect that one never get disappointed when working. I do appreciate what I having now, with myself being in the middle phase (working phase and postgrad phase), I still can enjoy both benefits sometimes. In past 1 year, I learn about the workplace politics, how people behave differently when face to different people, how protective they are etc. I feel lucky that this hasn’t pollute my mind too much, at least I still can hehehaha with some friends and my sisters. I will treat this 1st anniversary as my kindergarden certificate: Grow to be a better one, know evil but not do evil. Btw, I plan to go KL then to Langkawi on December, maybe will drop by Penang. Maybe we can meet up after 1 and half year. ^^
Tiadchad: Thanks! Look at the Brightside is always a good philosophy to encourage people, especially like me who is so emotion-oriented most of the time. All the best to you too!
a very good comments from both yee kai and tian chad, and Wen ni no worry, we,a.k.a. your fellow "blogmates" will support/encourage/motivate each other.
all the best, cheers
