Guitar
I wouldn't say that teaching guitar is my dream or passion.. but teaching guitar was something i had wanted to do for a long time..
I've learnt guitar since the end of Form 2.. I had my 1st performance in Form 3.. I nv really had any formal training whatsoever.. I learnt mostly from seniors in my high school back then.
Since then, I found that my passion in music was actually guitar and not piano that i have been learning since 6? I don't really remember.
Anyway.. I've been playing guitar ever since..
I still remember I saw my seniors playing guitar n my friends singing the song Eternal Flame to it..I fell in love with guitar instantly.. I went home n told my dad:" Hey.. U know what, I saw my seniors playing guitar in school n its pretty cool.. I wanna learn guitar.." n guess what?? Not long after that, I saw a new guitar in my house.. my dad actually bought a guitar for me~! I can't tell u how happy I was.. Although it was an ordinary Fair Lady guitar (similar to Kapok), I still loved it..
My mum enrolled me in my 1st guitar class.. I was there for about a month or so n the guitar teacher stopped teaching.. then i sorta changed to another teacher who i thought i was wasting my time there cuz i couldnt really get anything frm him.. well thats the end of my acoustic guitar classes..
I kept on playing until 1 day in form 4, I wanted to try out classical guitar.. so i went n learn classical guitar from another teacher.. he was da greatest guitar teacher i've ever had.. he taught me lots of values n views on life other than classical guitar.. although in the end, i found out i still liked acoustic guitar more n i stopped my classes, i still keep in contact with this particular teacher.. Mr. Albert (also known as Mr. Bert) n hez Hainanese by the way.. A pretty crazy 1! 1 of the most talented bassist i've ever seen too~
After i graduated from high school, i went to Malacca MMU n proceeded there... i went on participating in various events n performances. Same goes for Cyberjaya mmu after i went there for my degree..
Since then i have changed a few guitar.. The 1st 1 was Fair Lady, 2nd was an unknown brand (I have donated it to my music club after i graduated from high school), 3rd was my Yamaha C-70 (classical guitar), 4th was my good old Yamaha APX-3... and the Taylor guitar that i'm currently using is in fact my 5th guitar.. after my Yamaha APX-3 died.. Yes it was killed by my ceiling fan.. I accidentally held it too high up~ T.T
Every since i graduated from Form 5, I've thought of teaching guitar while waiting for my results.. I got my offer letter to MMU soon after n I never got to teach guitar...
I had a chance to teach guitar in my foundation year in Malacca.. I was helping the guitar teacher out as a tutor in the guitar class.. its was very fun actually.. to teach friends..
Now i have a chance to teach guitar again.. My roomie's friend is looking for guitar teachers for her music academy.. i'm kinda interested but my dad doesn't seem to approve of it.. He says I shouldn't be teaching guitar since i'm in my final year already.. I was thinking the opposite. I'm already in my final year n i really hope i get to do the things i like before i graduate.. after that, i might not have the time or the opportunity to do so anymore..
Oh well.. we'll c how it goes on thursday.. meeting up with the person in charge.. :)

My Boss

My boss pisses me off~!!! He asks us to call ppl up to market our service: Telesales Outsourcing.. But he nv told us anything about what we actually do!!
Our conversation
Boss: So you call them and tell them we do bla n bla n book an appointment with them so I can go over to explain to them more.
Me: Okayy~ So what do we do actually?
Boss: You dont tell them much. Thats not your job. If you already explain everything to them, there won't be any point of me meeting up with them right? Just tell them very briefly we mainly do telesales outsourcing and customer service. Thats all.
Me: Uh huh~ So what if they ask more?
Boss: Just cut them off. That's how you do it.
Me: What they ask us what do we do? As a matter of fact, what do we ACTUALLY do to help them increase sales?
Boss: That you don't need to know. Just book an appointment. Tell them we want to collaborate with them, help them find ways to increase sales and cut costs at the same time.
Me: Okayy~ So I'm supposed to tell them we do telesales outsourcing, book an appointment and cut them off if they ask more?
Boss: Yes.
End
ok so dats basically what we were told to do... So we did it~ n of course ppl's reply was:
Huh? what is that u r doing? do you have more information? can u send it over 1st? What is Telesales Marketing?
n so we told our boss their reply.. n u know what he told my roomie?
Boss: That is why you must 1st understand what we are doing before you start calling people~
Roomie Nana: That's the problem. We don't know what we are actually doing..
Boss: If you don't understand, why didn't you ask in the first place?
Me: (In my mind) WTF?! I asked you SOOOOOO many times what do we do and how are we supposed to help them increase sales n u juz tell me I don't need to know all these. My work is to book an appointment THATS ALL.
PLEASE LA~ Who will agree to meet you without knowing who the hell you are and have no single idea what you do? You think people will meet you jus on the term TELESALES MARKETING?
And who told me I don't need to knw so much IN THE FIRST PLACE?!
OMG i have no idea how to deal with him. Someone please tell me how.

Mr Nice Guy? NOT!
Some people just have it their way. They never need to work hard or strive for it. Things just goes the way they want it to be. I've seen so many of them in my life. Never once they need to worry about anything.
Why does these people get all the privileges while some of us work our ass off but never get credited for anything? I feel so unjust for all of us that that work so hard.
I'm super lazy to tell my story all over again but those who know me well should know what happened in the past. I worked so hard for the things I like, my passion.. and in the end? I got nothing. NOTHING.
I know the world is unfair. There are still golf clubs in the wolrd that blacks are not allowed into, even Tiger Woods. But I just can't help feeling stupid n sorry for those who tried so hard but failed in the end.
Sometimes being too nice will only lead to you yourself being used and left to die.

Working Life~

I haven't been blogging lately have I? Yea I've been busy with work.. I started my internship or as we mmu peeps call it industrial training.. I started working on 15th June.. So it's been a month now..
Working life has been boring.. except the fact that I get to FINALLY use my makeup stash which has been piling up.. lolx~
Anyway.. what I do in office everyday is basically taking calls for Shakeys Pizza.. Call customers n advertise our client's programmes or the stuff they r selling.. do reports n design websites (nana does it all~ hha)
My company does outsource telemarketing.. so everyday we r doing marketing for clients.. Hope it has some relevance to my major (Management with Multimedia) since it has to do with PR.. :P
Anyway.. will try to update often..
