weird..

After 2 months of internship.. i realised a lot of things... like the world is not as innocent as how you think.. people will not stop and wait for you just because you couldnt catch up.. and not forgetting... the naive thinking of certain people that drives you crazy... i thought i was naive enough.. but who knows there were more... well... living in your own world doesnt help chase away the truth that you avoid facing (loosely translated, J-man, 2009).


besides that.. i enjoy being an intern... despite well.. the "adults" tend to leave you out in certain stuff... then asking you for help but not telling what or how should you help out... however.. interns have this "get out of jail free" card.. which equals to "make mistakes but will be forgiven" card... where you can no longer enjoy if you are a permanent...

people around says they miss school and wish to end this internship soon and get on with school stuff... assignments.. mid terms.. marks... finals... assessments!!! noooo way!!! that's specifically NOT what i miss about school... the only thing maybe is my friends and the fact that i can go home on time unless u have my own activities... besides that... i sure hope i can just escape from assignments... exams... and particularly marks...

a friend of mine who works part time and studies at the same time also thinks that she is more comfortable working than studying.. so i guess i'm not that weird after all.. and she's a student with a cgpa of 3.7 and above.. even she is tired of studying.. then why shouldnt i be?? my cgpa is below 3.5, by the way...

ever since the start of this year.. i suddenly feel that i'm tired of studying... but its already my 3rd and last year.. so i might as well brush up and get going... finish up my last year....

aza aza...

another week ended

Today... it marks another week of my internship...

how time flies~~~ i'll be getting my allowance again next week!!! hehe... i AM realistic... money is one of the factors... anyway... i'm not getting very much anyway.. so stop criticising... and anyhow.. it's still better than nothing...

yesterday's shooting was fun... honestly.. i enjoyed it more than the previous 3 shootings... hmmm... why is it??? this time.. i'm still doing my usual thing... which is taking pictures for conty.... however... the art department people are also doing the same thing... so i guess.. it's kinda "extra"... well.. besides that i have nothing much to do... because this time, i'm in charge of wardrobe!!! can you believe that??? me... a person who is not at all good in clothes... in charge of wardrobe... wahahaha... but i enjoyed it... because i feel very involved in the project... and the best part is... i get to mingle with the talents!!! fuahahahaha.... which is something i really enjoy.... hahaha...


what else??? nothing much to report about internship besides shooting and some random stuff going on because i think they might be kinda boring... so... let's see... i havent blog about my outing with several long-time-no-see friends.... i'll do that later because that will require photo uploading... which if what i'm kinda reluctant to do...


hmmm.... i have some pretty sad stuff and rantings to do... but i'll not continue here... it might ruin the mood of this post... hehe...

stay tune!!!

TGIF

i have marked today as the happiest day of my internship days... i think they will not be any other days that could be better than today....

first thing first... i get to go to astro to see a radio infomercial recording for mixFM... haha.. what an opportunity... and they are only bringing one intern over... xiaochin doesnt have the transport.. and kevin seems reluctant... so i guess its me then... we are suppose to take turns anyway... so i have used up my chance... awww... what a waste... but i have definitely made an entrance there... *embarassing...


the recording was pretty fast... i went back to the office at around 12pm... people who know damansara perdana will understand the misery of searching for a parking place during this time of the day... it's a disaster... BUT!!! i manage to find one... proper parking space without "joining the divider" or whatsoever... after 2 rounds... during my third round around taht place!!! i'm so lucky!!!! actually there was a car waiting for it already... but i somehow appeared behind it so i just wait for it to go in and spread my envy-ness of what good luck that fellow have to get such a nice place during this is of the day...

wuahhahaha... who knows??? the car suddenly left its "waiting spot"... so i assume there wasnt a place after all but when i got closer... the reverse lights of one of the cars lit up.... wooohooo!!!!! i've found a place!!!! although there a little distance from the office but at least... i got a proper place!!! so after parking my car and paying the parking ticket... i walk back to the office...

then mrs boss say we are all going to tenji for lunch... what's the occassion???? i dont know... no idea... saja.... so after settling down... off we go to tenji for lunch buffet!!!! japanese lunch buffet man!!!!


after that... we went back to the office... and get to go bcak on time... 7pm sharp!!!

the very best thing is... it FRIDAY today... so i'll get my weekends... and i'll be meeting up with ain and gang tomorrow... oh gosh!!! this day just couldnt get any better....

TGIF!!!

blabbing.... -points-

oh gosh... the "create post" page has been open for.... the whole day... i guess... everytime i on the computer... i'll certainly check my blog... then try to post a new blog post or something... i have been trying to write something since in the afternoon... but nothing special comes in mind...


so i guess.. its time for my random blabs again....


hmm... so what should i write about??? weekends are my rest-days... which i usually will try not to step out of my house unless its necessary.... i prefer staying in... with the internet, facebook, blogs and other online mini games... or maybe just a book will do... i'm still on my way with sophie kinsella's "remember me".... i decide to take it slow.. there's no rush when it comes to reading... although i can read fast but sometimes i think is better to look at every word than to just browse thru the sentence and take things for granted.... i still have loads of books waiting for me... especially my Dan Brown series... which i'm on the way of giving up due to the hard-to-understand content... i'm still the shallow reader who prefers reading light and simple stories...


basically... things are still going on pretty ok for me... just that i have done a few things that i never ever thought i would be doing... which took a hell lot of courage from me before i started doing it... it's a chance that i want to take... i have been delaying it for a long time now... and i think i will regret it if i still want to "preserve" my dignity and hold it back.... sometimes things are meant to happen... and when you try to stop it for the wrong reasons.... you'll just feel uncomfortable inside... and the feeling will last until you found a way to fix it....
so i sure hope that it will turn out the way i want it to be... but if it doesnt... oh well... at least i tried... i should not have stopped that in the first place... so its my fault and i'm not blaming anybody for it... i'm ready to get whatever i deserve... good or bad... (i still hope its good)


working days are pretty tiring...
and when you have to digest some things that is completely pointless... it really exhausts you... besides... everything must have a reason behind it... if you cant give me the reason... so it makes it pointless... a waste of time... effort... and life....
i tried to understand your expectations... but it seems that i'm not in the same level as you since i dont get any of your points... yes.. i admit that i'm maybe not as good as you... so what else can i do?? maybe you just dont get the point yet.... until everybody starts leaving... leaving you with nobody but yourself... is that when you are going to understand the problem??? will it be too late then??? i can honestly say that i dont agree with your ways... and i dont understand what you actually want... sometimes... it just irritates me when you dont speak the language... and just get on with what you think is appropriate.... i find that very disturbing....
anyway... i hope you do see the problem... and change before its too late...

---intern update---

there goes the 3rd week of my internship...


this week i got to deal with the talents when they show up at the office for wardrobe fitting... and i also got to call them up to confirm their availability for the proposed shooting date... they all sound very kind and nice... not as demanding as i imagined... bombarding me with all sorts of questions that i dont know how to answer and gets pissed off when i cannot answer them.. instead they just laugh and say... "okay, you get back to me when you get to know about that... thanks..."
phew~~~


the hardest part when it comes to calling talents is when you are rejecting them... since after proposing to clients.. they will only be choosing 1 when you have already called a dozen to check their availability and promised to call back and confirm... whatever that is... whether accept or reject... this week.. i have to reject around 10 (i think) VO talents that i have called previously to confirm their availability... i really dont have the heart to do that.. so i got kevin to do it for me... hehehehe.... thanks yo!! its really sad when such a nice voice is rejected... they all sound really nice.. and must be very disappointed when they receive rejection... sigh~~~~



hmmm.... i'll have to get used to that... because there are more to reject in the future... i really hope that the clients could shortlist them early and just accept which i managed to get hold first... instead of calling... confirming... then rejecting.. which is a waste of time, hope and effort....


i'm starting to enjoy dealing with talents now... and i'm getting used to calls... since i dont have to rest for like 10 minutes after every call...


besides that.... i just have to say.... VOs... they earn a lot!!!!!!

Just to let you know...



i get to go back early today... so i have time for blogs... weeheee....


just to let you know that last saturday... and last last sunday... i went to the popular warehouse sales in summit... books were up to 90% discount!!!! weeee....


suddenly... i have the "book mood".... which is to purchase books!!!! the first time i went... i did not really buy a lot of books... maybe just one....





Yala... i still wanna improve my korean... still learning... so i thought of buying a basic sentence book... since i have been learning a lot of words previously.... hopefully it will come in handy... this book 70% off... from rm42.80 it became rm.... ok i need some time for maths here.... around rm12.90... wooohooo... not bad huh??? i was planning to get the japanese one... but i have the text books from level 1 til 4... so i guess... although its cheap... i dont really have to spend on it....

then i got some cds... i can say... the cd is.... woohooo... makes me regret buying me previous ones... coz they were like around 90%!!!! gosh!!!! anyway... bought 1 only....

then some stationary..... heheheheh...



the following week... i went to the same warehouse sale with huiping... this time... i want to buy more books!!!!








these are what i have bought.... hehehehe.. and they cost me less than rm50.... i took out rm50 from the atm.... and i still have around rm10 to spare.... good isnt it???

i just love books... i couldnt stop... i was actually tempted to buy more.... but my conscience disallow me... told me not to waste money.. although its cheap... but i should not use them up so easily... ok.... i listen to my conscience.... but at least i got a whole lot..... i'm still happy...


reading culture man!!!!!

internship week 2

another week has pass...
12 more to go....

this week is a very busy week as well... because there are 2 shootings... there should be 3 but another 1 was delayed till next week... oh well... 2 is ENOUGH to handle....

tuesday morning... call time 0615... fuwah!!! luckily dedi agreed to send me to work... hehe.. off to kota damansara... landed on a very huge house... very nice... the design is kinda similar to those vacation resorts... got photos... but i dont think i'm allowed to reveal them here... in case there are any copyright stuff... so i guess i'll show them when the ad is aired.... meanwhile... just say that the shooting goes on quite smoothly... everything in place... i'm assigned to take photos behind the scenes... but manatahu... just the first scene the battery life has dropped down to 20mins.... owh shucks!!!! we still have to whole day to go!!!! and i only have 20 mins???? besides the camera also functions as a conty when photos are taken previously can be refered regarding the detail of arrangement and stuff... (what am i talking about??? i dont know...) so what else can i do???? conserve battery... only take photos of those which I THINK is important... sigh~~~

then at 5pm we shift location... of to sungai buloh we go.... in a kampung house... which is damn hot because the electricity were all used for the shooting equipments... so the fan was off... understand la... kampung house... how much electricity they have???? the owner of the house is very kind... he keeps offering to help when i was clearing up... we get to wrap up earlier than the estimated time... which was a YIPPEEEE!!!!! darn tired... didnt feel like eating dinner... just wanna go back...


on thursday... call time is still 0615... this time the location..... templer hills!!!! a show unit in templer hills to be exact... again... no photos... cooz i dont wanna be sued for anything... the show unit was very nice... but due to its wide windows... it became very hot when the sun is shining to its maximum.... anyway... it'll still fun... i'm still taking photos... but this time doesnt make any difference as the last time... my battery ran out just before i realised... aish... change the camera la!!!! again... we wrapped up before the estimated time... YIPPEEEE!!!!! but we stayed there the whole day.... the talents were great... the little boy was extremely cute... but still... darn tired... had a few bites for dinner.... and balik...


yesterday.... made a few calls to check the availability of VO talents... just then i realised than i'm god damn lucky to not be placed in a telecommunications company... i totally freak out when it comes to phone calls... my voice shivers... my hand grips hard on t he receiver as though its gonna fall off... and i need 10-15 minutes rest in between every phone call... gosh this is tiring..... i'll try to avoid phone calls....


woke up early this morning to send my bi-weekly report.... off to lunch....
