1st day of work

Oh man I struggled on writing my previous post.... I was sobbing so hard I couldnt even type properly... (diverts own attention n facebook-ed for 10 mins to stop da tears~ )

ok i'm back.. (somewhat normal with super swollen eyes..) T.T

Actually I wanted to write a post yesterday.. Ended up i couldnt cuz of the stupid connection~
i was SOOOO nervous last night.. i called my godma n ranted to her for half an hour about my Pre-Working Syndrom .. lolx~!

n then YX called.. n I ranted to her the next hour.. HAHA.... I dont really know why am i so nervous.. but i was extremely nervous..

I woke up at 6.30am this morning.. took a bath.. put on my makeup.. (actually the fotoz were taken when i got back frm work.. but it still looks nice rite? RITE? :P)

I wore a bluish green outfit for the day.. godma bought it for me frm Dorothy Perkins! Lurve it to bits!!! n i had the same color for my eye makeup! :P (is it just me or am i getting fairer and fairer nowadays? HAHAHA)


n guess wad? Matching color earrings!!! n yes i can be very particular when it comes to matching clothing to eye makeup n accesories~ (didnt know the side of my face looks kinda nice oso...HAHA i'm getting vain~ )


Isnt it just adorable? Its a butterfly! n its green too! :P initially bought it to match my cheongsam for cny.. ended up i didnt wear it. haha..

n drove to work~! yes i drove to senai all by myself! So proud of myself for not getting lost! HAHA...

Was nervous throughout n i was singing super loud on da way to work.. :P but all the nerves were gone the minute n stepped into the bank n my colleagues greeted me with the warmest smile~ :)

Had a short n very laughable briefing regarding the latest promotions n every1 was of f to work.. I was attached to another fellow PFC who is my senior.. but he didnt look very free so he asked me to go with the Navigator 1st.. She was very nice n she explained stuff to me when she wasnt attending to customers..

A while after that, my manager brought me to my desk n linked me to the intranet n stuff.. I HAVE MY OWN DESK HOW COOL IS THAT? LOLX (ok i'm over excited~ ) n i spent the next hour or 2 reading up on company product n services~

Then lunch time cam n guess wad? My manager treated me lunch! =) Hez a super nice fatherly type of manager.. :)

Dad picked me up at 3.30pm to go register my EPF account.. came back to office at 5 something.. They were blowing ballons... OMG.. OF ALL THINGS... BALOONS! n i'm freaking scared of baloons!!!!

Yes u guessed it.. i was screaming everytime a baloon burst.. hahaa... i wasnt much of a help ther so my manager asked me to go home 1st.. ahhaha! (i really wanted to help tho! :P)

N i drove back without getting lost too! YAYS!

AND AND AND.... grandma cooked the most delicious Bak Kut Teh for dinner~! Droolz~!

So that pretty much sums up my 1st day of work~ heh.. Looking forward to a new day tml! Nitex peeps!

For grandpa..

Last night before I slept.. I was lying on my bed.. I started talking out loud.. pretending that my grandpa was there.. n i actually talked for 20 mins... n i spent the rest of the time crying myself to sleep... yes.. call me silly or crazy or someone who cant accept the truth.. But i always believe my grandpa is still around me.. Juz somewhere where i couldnt see him.. but he sees us... he knows what we are doing and he cares.. jus like he did when he was still here... n so.. I dedicate this post to him..

公公，你的孙女做工了！而且是在银行做工！你可以去跟你的朋友们说噢～告诉他们你有多开心。。　多骄傲。。。

我真得很想念你。。　真的真的很想念你。。

times i stared at my phone.. thinking about the times i saw ur name flashing at my screen.. knwing i'd hear the familiar voice... greeting me in the familiar way as how u always do all these years...

i passed by my school.. remembering how u always fetch me to school... n waiting at hutan bandar 1 hour earlier juz because u didnt want to let me wait..

i ate chicken rice.. remembering how u'd always add extra char siew and shao rou for me.. n just buy normal chicken rice for yourself..

i drank a can of soft drink.. remembering how u always complaint how expensive it is, yet u still buy a can for me all the time...

i ate indian kuih.. telling ah boy how u used to buy them for me n taught me how to eat them~

i passed by the temple.. remembering how u used to tell me wad every statue meant...

i watched tv... n picturing u scolding at the actors u never liked...

theres nothing i can do without thinking of you..

公公，照顾自己哦。。

Nail art~

I'm bored~ Extremely bored~! ahha.. n recently.. my craze for nail polish has re-appeared again~ hahaha... i ordered a couple of bottles of nail polish frm usa~ half of them arrived d.. LOL dont ask me how many~ hahahah... so i tried them out~ :P n since etude house is having 50% off the konad nail stamp plated~ i bought a couple of new ones too~ hahahhaa~

so i used China Glaze nail polish in Innocence for the base color~ I LOVE this color! my HG nail color for now~ HAHA its a sheer jelly-like pink color.. n it took me 4 thin coats to get this half opaque color~ pls excuse my not-so-nice nails.. haha


Then I used the Konad plate m41 n stamped these cute ribbon patterns on my nails.. took me a couple of times to get it right~ esp on the thumb n pinkie~ luckily the base was thick enuf~ so i cud lightly rub away the pattern without rubbing off the base color~ :)




Then added another black flower using Konad m50~

Then on the other hand~ used Konad plate m36 for the butterfly patterns~ :)

And added a floral pattern with Konad m41~



TADAH~!!!! Nice right? Nice RIGHT??? HAHAHA Dont care~ u must say nice~ LOLOL

Job Interviews~


I went for an job interview laz week! It was at the CIMB branch at Pelangi.. They actually called me at 11.30am and asked me to go for an interview that very afternoon~ I was like... U've got to be kidding me.. ppl normally give a few days notice.. they gave me a few hours notice.. lolx.. i had no transport.. no preparation whatsoever.. So i asked them if i can go for the interview the next day~ They called back shortly after that n asked me to be there at 11.20am the nx morning~

I couldn't sleep at all that night.. ahha.. i dont know.. I wasn't at all nervous for my internship interviews.. Maybe there was something inside telling me: "Hey this is the real thing ok? U better make sure u make it!" Lolx.. Anyways.. went over to grandma's place in the morning... got changed and make up.. everything.. Dad came by to fetch me over to the CIMB branch~

Went up.. filled in some application forms as usual.. and waited outside the interview room~ Shortly after, they called me in.

1 malay guy and 1 chinese gal interviewed me... asked me to introduce myself.. then asked me stuff like why i think i'm up for this job.. how would i cope~ bla bla~ overall it was fine.. they seemed to like me so yea~ hahha!

the next day, public bank called and asked me to go for an interview in kl~ so i went up with my dad.. i got a shock when i reached the main branch which was directly opposite klcc~ there were at least 20+ ppl there waiting to be interviewed.. and when i saw my name on the list.. it was like.. 40+.. meaning there were 50 ppl that went for interview that day itself! lolx thats kinda crazy~ didnt expect so many ppl there.. but oh well public bank pays well.. haha

i reached there at 3.30... waited till 5.30pm~ yes.. 2 hours.. sitting there.. with sweaty palms~ counting the time.. n hoping it was me next everytime the hr person came out n called names... there were at least 4 rooms interviewing us~

finally at 5.30 i was called into a room with 2 chinese gals.. kinda young.. at most in their early 30s~ oh man they started bombarding me with questions after questions~ started to ask me about loan applications~ this was how it went:

Interviewer: So Miss Ng, please tell me what are the documents u need when processing a loan application for a bank?

Me: I'm just a fresh grad with no prior experience.. so..... (and just so u know, i got C for finance)

Interviewer: (cuts me off) We are aware that almost all of u are fresh grads. So just tell us what u know.

Me: Er~ (beginning to feel nervous) okay~ so u need to have the background of the company, the objective why they need to loan.. the financial statement~ bank accounts~ n also to check if they are making losses or not so that u can know whether they are able to repay the loan~

Interviewer: uh huh... some more?

Me: Er..... ...... ......? (scratches head)

Interviewer: ok next, if an individual were to apply for loan? This should me much easier.

Me: (easier?! i have no idea whatsoever!) ok, if its an individual.. u need their pay slip, and maybe support letters from previous or current employers~ n need to check if they have any prior criminal offence n stuff.. to ensure the application is legitimate and not for other purpose~

Interviewer: uh huh some more?

Me: ERRRR......... ......... ......... ?

Interviewer: ok what if the individual is self employed? theres no proof whatsoever he is working.. no pay slip no letters.. then what?

Me: ER... ER... ER.... ER.... (oh man~~~~~)

Interviewer: ok nvm~ (and starts askin questions about sales)

Man I did so badly I didnt even wanna think about it after it ended~ imagine so many ppl eyeing for that few positions offered~ i wonder how does any1 get into public bank at all~?! lol

right after that, the next day.. i received a call frm cimb saying that they wanna hire me! LOLOL
and i was told that they will be sending me for 3 weeks training in Bangi and i'll need to take tests n stuff in order to be able to start working.. AND~~~~~ everything is paid for!!! FOC~ On top of that~ I'll still be receiving my pay! That means~ i just have to work for a week after the 3 weeks training n i'll get my pay~ hahaha.. how cool is that?

Well the only setback is... its in JB... yea i've been hoping to work in KL~ but thinking back what my dad said~ my petrol easily costs RM400 per month~ accommodation RM400 (if i dont stay at my grandma's)... Tolls RM150.. Food RM500 Thats almost 1.5K GONE~ n my pay is merely 2k plus~ theres basically nothing left! lolx... which is quite true...

if i work in jb.... stay at home, save petrol, eat at home, no tolls~ heck i have an extra 1k to spend! so~ oh well.. i'll be staying in jb for the time being i guess~ (like as if i have a choice) hahahaa~

initially, i was told that i'll be working at the cimb branch in Senai~ which is erm.. 40 mins frm my place? kinda far considering its jb.. not kl~ then today... my mum called n she told me her colleague's husband is the branch manager of cimb in my own taman~ n it seems that they are 1 person short... n cud use me there... SO~~~~~~ I might just be working in my own taman! LOL talk about near.. man i can even cycle there if i wanted to~ ITS SO FREAKING DAMN NEAR~ LOLX

So...... i'll be starting on 22nd feb.... super nice number la... its my birthday, my cellphone num, my house address, n my car num plate! lolx

and since theres this music cafe near my hse.. might think of singing there too~ juz have to sing there once a week, i'll have extra cash to spend too! :P oh man i'm so money minded.. hahhhaaa~

oh yea~ my post: PERSONAL FINANCIAL CONSULTANT~

super chio la! HAHHAHA~ :P
