Interior Internship

Hi y'all, tomorrow morning I'll start going to work as an intern in an interior design company in the heart of the city. Kinda excited after 2 weeks of break from my last semester in college. Thank gawd, I could find a job within a week and an interview within a short time. I found it online and only applied once, cos there's no other vacancy posted by other companies.

Earlier, I've tried taking a ride in the train, to be prep the journey's average time and cost. I felt others cheered me on but not so psyched like them tho, hehe.

From now on, I'm gonna start blogging again, since I've missed out in writing stuffs about my phase in college and my part-time works. I'm starting a new Monday blue tomorrow, a baby blue. I'm like really gonna do what I was looking forward while stuck in college for the past two years dreaming to go to WORK, at last, well not really, going to my job as their daily dress code is casual.

And like all the major malls are all around the corner for a little bunny to hop off! Like Money River is directly opposite my new office block. Pavi & Times Square is on different roads, what more can a girl ask for in when working in the heart of Kuala lala Looompor, especially on Starhill. I used to like to study in Damansara, easy getting to the huge malls around, going to nearby Cineleisure for movies after classes, shopped in 1U, looking for class project stuffs from IKEA. Like big deals, just wanna point out: Location, Location, Location!!

Honestly, I haven't try job search around my neighborhood, despite their abundance of I.D companies and factories mushrooming. Because, I know how will my working experience be later on, with typical Chinese businessman style of handling issues and widely acceptable language spoken in the office. I say that because despite myself as a Chinese, I still can't accept their work ethics of slurring eir colleagues in their face in cantonese openly during working hours. So, I'm pretty happy I'm gonna work in an international mix of colleagues later on with Singaporeans, Indonesians, a few western and other wide range of nationalities plus a few odds of locals working together on the same project with the Japanese boss.

So, I don't have to be in anguish with people of my own race (hired only one type of race, mostly) speaking an alien language and be treated as a foreigner. Here, hopefully since the notion of me as a foreigner, I could mix pretty well with all the other foreigners, just speaking English for once.

The only thing now is the Japanese working culture of long hours and long nights into the work.
Hopefully, it's not that scary... Just don't expect me to turn all Japanese-interested suddenly . My heart is beating for the west, still. I am a Malaysian, anyway.
