this is my 301st post! wahhaa!
damn damn tired. haven't been sleeping much these few days.. attending workshops in the morning then rushing to work till midnight for 4 consective days really kills.
but i'm happy though. :)
ytd the speaker asked a very interesting question which really struck hard upon me.
i'm successful, when i'm ____________.
fill in blank.
actually, i don't know what to fill in. to many people, success is when you earn like tons of money. i don't deny i view success in that way too. HAHAHA. in this world, everything is about money. i have to accept the fact.
i've been thinking about this blank these two days. and i realise, i have an answer for this stage of my life.
i'm successful, when i give my best in every thing i do and in return, i gain contentment and achievement. happiness is one key thing in my life. :)
i view happiness and harmony very importantly. nobody wanna work for something they won't feel happy working for.
and that's the case for RH mooncakes. i am happy when i work there. i enjoy my work and the company i had.
though i had more than 10 bruise... cuts on the fingers lah.. blue-black all over my arms and legs lah.. have to work long hours and is desperately lacking of sleep, but i'm really enjoying it.
sometimes, it's not really solely about money too. I could have jolly well get a temp job that can pays as high as up till 10 bucks per hour, but i chose to sell mooncakes at not a very high pay. And i think most of the other hotels and restaurants' pay is higher than RH.
but one thing that i realised is the RH team is way more team-spirited as compared to other hotels/restaurants. i've been to many roadshows and i see how each team operated. i dare say that we're one of the best team with good teamwork and efficiency and we're damn service-oriented. haahahahaah!
pay is one thing. the people you're working with is another thing. let me choose among the two, i rather choose to have good colleagues than a higher pay. that's a typical libra. hahaha. we value relationships alot.
no doubt that i've met colleagues whom i dont really like..but after some time, i'm getting use to their 'patterns' and 'styles' and i know how to 'deal' with them and communicate with them. we still all work well as a team at the end of the day.
this year's mooncake operation has taught me a very valuable skill in life. that is to understand different people, accept the differences and tolerate in a very short time.
i think somehow i'll miss mooncake 08 too! 8 more days! :)
i got photos to share! but... bluetooth not working again. argh. post some other days!
seriously in need of sleep now! WOO.

moooooncake.
baaaah. just finished replying all the emails that i should reply.
damn it. i'm missing out so much on RC5. :(
i'm lack of sleep and totally drained out of energy. studying and working at the same time really sucks big time. i almost dozed off during the workshop i had the past two days. it's not boring, just that i'm really way too tired.
the workshop is super interesting and engaging. i dont regret signing up man, though i have to rush here and rush there and make myself so tiring.
work is ending in 11 days. woo. kinda glad actually. cause i really need time to do my amb stuffs and have a good rest.
today was a damn siao day for me, desiree, ivan and charleston. we practically went crazy in QC while packing mooncakes. laughed like crazy and non-stop. these are times when work become fun instead of a chore. liking some of the new people i've met and they make good colleagues! :)
oh. and i went for typhoid vaccination today. baaaa.
there's really so much things to blog about but i really need sleep. tmr is another workshop day. but yes! i'm gg to roadshow after workshop! OHYEAH. i can see lawrence again. wahahaha!

mooncake nightmare.
interesting weekends for me.
at least i didnt spend like both days looking at mooncakes. haa.
met up with my dear friends yesterday and had a great dinner and great talk. was supposed to be a farewell dinner for yuchih but that girl missed her flight back home! like WTH right! and didn't even informed us. argh.
work is getting more tiring and tiring each day... i just sat at command center to do tabulations for orders for like 6 hours and i was so damn tired already. haa. i think i didn't fully replenish my energy. i'm getting old liao. went up to NBR to do closing...and like wth can.. to phrase it in a very negative way, it's like clearing up ppl's shit. but aiyah, just get over it lor. work is like that what. help one another lor. do account till almost 11.45pm then finish. i think i can really go be an accountant liao. i salute mr jonathan. haaaa. he's SMART though he's irritating. and it's VERY irritating. HAHA. but when it comes to micros stuffs and accounting, he's like a little smart at it.
many things happening this year. i just felt that i have the responsiblitly to help out and contribute to the team cause i'm experienced. to me, even if it's part time job, i'll wanna do it well. but now i think i'll like going over the extend liao. do until i am so damn tired. hahaha. but it's gonna end soon so well, just continue to pia for the next two weeks lor. and then it will be redcamp 5 next on the list! :D
i like being busy lah. though now i really feel like sleeping for one whole week and lazing around doing nothing. i'm a weirdo. wahaa.
i'm getting more and more crazy liao due to my lack of sleep. haaa. so now i'm gonna sleep and hopefully be on time for TDP workshop tmr. 4 days of workshop. arghh. missed out my 4 roadshows. damn sad. but then studies is definitely more impt than work! i work, because of the people there..if not i'd rather relax at home! i'm a person who values friendships, not that you all dont know! :P
mooncake nightmare!! WOO.
