Second week in the so call working world

I have been gladly working for the past 2 weeks in HSBC. I haven't had the chance to tell about my first week in HSBC, now the second week come tumbling after. Well, first week was dreadful because there was nothing to do at all. I was so close to die due to massive boredom. They told us to buddying! The so called "buddying" is as if like pairing us with someone to take the chance to look and learn about all the process that is happening. The steps that we are going through in order to process "the" thing. But to me, buddying is a big waste of time and energy. It was so tiring! I tried to find a so call "buddy". Some of them are nice, and some of them are not that so nice at all. Some of them are willing to help and some of them are not willing to help at all. Alright then, now I'm talking in circles! 


Second week of working is where my training starts! Well, indeed I am glad for surviving the first week. Another  7 weeks more! Trying my best to achieve the BAU as fast as I could. BAU is Business As Usual, where we can do our job on our own without anyone helping. 1 month on theoretical and another month hands on. I am gladly to say that I have missed one Malaysia's public holiday, that is Thaipusam, and one more coming, that is Chinese New Year. When is the UK's public holiday coming. Only 9 in a year! 


I am currently wasting my weekend at home which by I was suppose to be studying a lot of thing. When I say LOT! I mean a LOT! Sigh. Finish studying but yet everywhere requires reading and especially memorizing. Massive reading and studying makes my pimple pop out! Damn! I hate it when it happens. Now, my face are full of red spots that I feel like covering everything up! 


Alright, off to cleaning up my room to waste my time while waiting for "HIM" to come home! My room is in a mess! Terrible mess! Wish I have a magic wand to sweep everything up in a blast! :)
Till then.

Taking a chance of love

24th of January 2011. Main thing is that I can't sleep. Woke up at 4.00 in the morning waiting for a call, but sadly it didn't happen. Instead I made the call. Who was suppose to call who was not the real issue, it was something else. Not going to story much cause sadly I just don't know where to start. Little things about myself that have been going on lately since I don't have the time to update much this few days. Got a job in HSBC a month ago. Started just recently last week. Been busy working since there is nothing much to do cause training starts today. Shift starts at 4pm and finishes at 1am as if like i'm working in an oil plantation. Following the UK market, that explains more on the working time. 4pm in Malaysia is 9am in UK, and 1am in Malaysia is 6pm in UK. 

Back to the story where I can't sleep due to the major sadness issue. Put my phone down and decided to watch TV at 4 in the morning. Pathetically indeed. Watch Diva 702 on Astro. Nothing better to watch. There was this one story "Taking a chance of love". Sad. Very sad. It's about a veteran and a reporter. Two separate individuals who are scared to take risk and chances in love. Whereby they prefer letting it go instead of trying it, and they both agreed in the same reason where they don't want to know the ups and down that was about to happen and decided to keep their feelings and grow old with it. Really sad indeed. They were talking about passion and all types of other things. As usual the watery eyes part was at the end. 

The story made me realize one thing, but I think it is more than one. Love with passion and love without passion is two different things. The story shows that this reporter got married and when the reporter got pregnant, her husband happen to slowly disengage with her. Whereby it shows that the passion slowly disappear. Sad. The veteran was actually got married to someone that their family choose, and she ended up falling in love with someone else.  How sad to have love but no passion. To get marry with someone that you love but slowly the passion slips away. It's like living in a house full of strangers where we can't deny. 

Choose love wisely, take the risk that we are willing too. At the end of the day. They are the one who are going to make us happy. You never know what the futures have for us. You never know either the decision we're taking is right or wrong. You will never know unless you take it. Have faith in what we do. It will all be true. 


Till then.
