Weekend or not? September 9, 2007

Friday night – Went to Wala Wala and have a drink with some friends, knowing that I had to wake up 7am the next day for SOTC class. Damn happening yah? We finished one whole bottle of Martell V.S.O.P Medaillon. It’s the first time I drink Martell. Haha… Used to drink one sip, but found it disgusting. But I found it quite ok this time round, surprisingly. Perhaps I am ‘seasoned’ to the taste of hard liqour. Still can’t believe I actually find Ah Pek liqour taste not bad… Eeek! Anyway, the Martell didn’t have any effect on me. That’s so strange…

Saturday - Forced myself to wake up, was feeling a bit of hangover. Great, I thought. Must be the Martell taking effect after last night. Felt like puking, and yet hungry. The cab driver made the feeling worse by stepping on brakes so frequently. Luckily I made it to class, not too late. The trainer was unbelievably BORING!!! I actually fell asleep in class, resting my head on the table, openly. I couldn’t help it, my head felt like it weighs a tonne! Words like bonds, yield to maturity, derivatives, OTC, plain vanilla all became background noise… Despite being super tired, I still made an effort to watch Korean drama with Keith. He’s so stucked to the TV, while I was dozing off. Went to sleep from 12am to 1pm the next day..

Sunday - Can’t believe I slept for such long hours! Was really so tired that I can’t remember what I say to my friend when he called me at 8am… I guess i was blabbling rubbish all the way. Haha… Did nothing much, except watching TV, read notes, snack… a typical Sunday when Keith is not around – Slacking around. Saw the bottle of Vodka on my table, and the soft drinks in my fridge, and voila! Vodka Pepsi. Care for a drink, anyone?

 

Stand-by September 6, 2007

Filed under: Uncategorized — jeane @ 6:01 am

Recently I feel as if I am working in the Army. I am always on stand-by to cover any collegue who last min cannot make it to work or whatever reason. By right, I shd be workin 2pm – 11pm. But for the past 2 weeks, I have been working 3-12, 4-1.. And I have to miss my yoga class for 2 weeks cos I need to cover other ppl’s work and can’t leave the office… There are 4 ppl in my team, the 3 of them have fixed hrs, I am the only flexi one. So… I am always so suay… I am so EXPLOITED!!!!!!!!!!!

Morale in my team is super low after one colleague announced that she’s going to leave the company for good. Once again, everyone is now going through the same thoughts again.

“Why are we still here?”

“Why our pay so low?”

“Why the management like that?”

“The systems are crap. We call ourselves Rubbish Banking Systems.”

“Why are we working so hard?”

“The other banks pay so much more…”

“Let’s flip the Recruit this weekend.”

“No choice, I am bonded for next 1 year.”

For the next 6 mth, life will be tough… Having some exams coming up in Oct, Dec and March. Got a feeling I will fail, cos I already forgotten about how to study… With work, it’s even harder… Argh!!! Just feel like complaining today, cos everything just seem to be against me these few weeks… I can’t see the good days anymore..

Help… -_-

 

Friday night’s out at The Arena September 2, 2007

I regretted.. I regretted telling everyone how good is Pump Room!! Friday when we were there, the queue was damn freaking long! I had nv seen such a long queue for Pump Room.. Disappointed, we wanted to go to MOS. On the way there, this live band music stopped us. It came from The Arena! A substitute for Pump Room! In we went! It was fun… the music was as good as Pump’s. But i still prefer Pump’s atmosphere and crowd.. I happen to see a group of white collar uncles, dancing and entertaining each other. That freaked me out. Luckily, we managed to enjoy ourselves, amoung ourselves. Really look forward for more Friday night parties!

Shu Hui looks a bit drunk… So does Adrian… His face gets red after one drop of alcohol..

A candid shot which I like a lot.

Settlements and Investigations a.k.a SAI team!! Woohoo~ We’ve got a thorn amoung the roses. We treat him real well… Like one of us, sisters… haha…
