First week at work

These four days of orientation really gave me an insight of the company business. I have yet to meet my boss but have gotten to know more about semiconductors I suppose. I am like a small little kid there…learning from nothing to at least something now. I remembered during the briefings and talks and sessions could  really kill me…I just couldn’t stop myself from yawning and “fishing” all the time when the room was only lit up by that dimmed slide show. And what was worse? (I’m not trying to be racist here) I’m the only chinese and the ONLY engineer in the orientation group. But at the very end of the day the freshies get to walk around the plant and witness all the production processes…The machines are just simply amazing, excuse me for being such a naive girl here. I have never ever witness with my very own eyes…as I have no background at all in this industry. Tomorrow I will be sent to my department to meet my boss and hopefully my boss will refer me to a super good immediate supervisor. Haha…it just seems scary to be in a total strange place..well, at least as compared to the office where I had my industrial attachment. It’s extremely tiring and I felt like wanting to splunge in my bed and close my eyes once i get home…haha… hmmm..it’s just the beginning… =P

Back to my misery post, one asked “when are you going to learn?” erm…interesting question. Btw when you start judging you’re blinded with complains. Very true I would say. Although I had been placed by Him to those places where I considered “undesirable” but I’ve been through every one of them with something I called valuable lessons. I did my F6 with great pride, involving in school plays, board of librarians and what not ended up with a whole bunch of great people. My uni days? well for me it wasn’t some high-pressured moments, striving to be the best among the rest or to complete my assignments with something extra to get more point BUT…but but but…(boast a bit sin) I get good grades and graduated with my targeted grades!…Just what more I could have asked for? huhu…hopefully this time around I have more of His guidance and blessings too oh… Oh yeah…I accepted the job so peeps…announcing, liyen is no more jobless now. kakaka…and I already have my shopping list when i get my payroll…terrible terrible me…huhu… but my dad say “save not spend!”…  -.-”’

misery…

Is it me who always go against God’s will or does He purposely put me into such difficult situation, perhaps He wants to tame my tongue? Yeah…my mouth just simply couldn’t stop telling people what I dislike but will always eat my own words and land on those undesirable grounds.

Yes, I did say I would never take up Form6 during my form5 years but yeah, I was there sitting in the dreadful hall for that STPM paper. And yes I did say I never wanted to pursue my tertiary education in Perak but I did it in a renown university just 45mins away from my house. Yes, again, I did say I didn’t want a major in petroleum but yeah I’m now a graduate in chemical engineering majoring in PETROLEUM. Yes, I did say I didn’t want to end up being an engineer and precisely not in the semicon industry and am dying to get away from Ipoh…and yet there’s an offer right here waiting for me to say “yes”. Gosh…

Just wondering why did all the things that i said “yes” to doesn’t seem like happening…perhaps God loves me too much and realise what I need the most. It’s all still a misery…..
