So over the weekend, I was in KL. Shopping was rather okay, but considering my limited budget and fat body, I didn't have as much fun shopping as I could have. Now I know that my weight is inversely proportioned to the enjoyment of shopping. I so need to lose weight, especially after all the crazy binging in KL.Basically I had cinnamon rolls, durian, donuts, french toasts (totally wicked, drenched in decadent maple syrup and dripping with peanut butter... yum!), laksa, stingray, oyster omelette... you get the drift.
Anyway, I need to lose weigh and I think that my tattoo is fading cos I didn't read instructions and took off the bandage to bathe before my 24 hours was up. I stained my PJs in the process and alerted my mom to the fact that I did another tattoo. Yeah, I admit that I'm pretty smart like that.
Anyway, today was my first day at work and I told myself not to be intimidated. I think I would feel more queasy if I were more awake. I kept dozing off! And to think that I slept at midnight last night to wake up at 6am this morning. The company has this punch card system, which totally made me feel transported back to my fragrance promoter days.
But other than that, my boss treated me and the rest of the department to lunch at Waraku (I had Shoyu Ramen) and I was in orientation the whole day. The product training made me nod off and I think the trainer caught me cos he said that he knew the training is dry and is irrelevant to what I'm doing, so it is okay for me to doze. I felt bad, but I really couldn't help it!
Then the current lady who was doing marketing was nice enough to walk me through my jobscope for like 3 hrs. She basically talked non-stop for 3 hrs, I am totally amazed by how she could do that. I probably would have run out of things to say in 1 hr max. But that would be why she earns enough to own a MX5 and I don't. But I think there's something to be said for being the boss's daughter though I honestly think she totally has no airs and is a real nice lady.
Other than that, I'm rather pleased that I can use MSN in the office. I didn't have time to cos I was busy dozing off while people explain important stuff to me. So this strengthened my resolve to sleep early tonight so I won't face the same problem again. I still have school tomorrow so I really can't afford to feel sleepy.
And that is why my encounter in KL will have to wait another day. Adios!
