So it’s been exactly two months since I started work.
I still can’t believe I’m not a student anymore. I keep thinking this is an internship and I’m going to go back to Mount Holyoke soon. But I guess lately I haven’t really thought that anymore so I must be getting used to working life.
It still feels so surreal though. Sometimes at a meeting at work I’ll think “omg what am I doing here” and look around at everyone else and think “wah I’m interacting with people who know so much more / with experience.” wtf.
I feel like I’ve learnt so much though. I learned to listen more, to read between the lines, to think in so many different ways that school never taught me.
I learned that there are limitless ways to make fun of someone’s height wtf. Thanks Jerry & Edmund wtf.
That said, I couldn’t ask for better people to work with. Most days I don’t leave the office until after 7 and sometimes I’m exhausted, but it doesn’t feel like work when you’re having fun.
The other day a whole bunch of us from high school met up over dinner — I hadn’t seen most of them since after SPM and it was so strange to talk to them and exchange stories over who’s working where now.
We’re all so grown up! (Although I still managed to get sauce on my white shirt will some things never change wtf) Everyone’s acne has cleared up wtf, a lot of them are in stable relationships, and some of us came to dinner straight from work. Most people are in banks or financial institutions and I thank god my parents let me choose where I ended up in, because if I ended up in a bank I would deteriorate and die wtf.
Just so surreal! I somehow thought that my being a student would never end, I would always be a kid and now it seems like my life is moving beyond what I ever imagined — to adulthood. I’ve grown up, and now I have a job and sooner or later (PLEASE LA GOD SOONER RATHER THAN LATER WTF) I will get married and have a family and grow old (hopefully with my husband wtf)
That said, I know I haven’t been blogging much about what’s really been going on in my life (because some things cannot be revealed, maybe later) but I am happy where I am. 🙂
In preparation for my exam T_T
