0830: Too early, and there's no way I'm setting foot into the office by myself (because that would mean I'd have to do opening). Might as well take a look around the area.
0840: After extensive walking around and looking out for potential coffee spots, I can conclude that there are no such coffee spots or potential lunch spots to provide a good escape for an hour every day. Still, it's nice and quiet.
0850: Ran into my aunt and went up to the office together. Did opening anyway.
0900: Aunt sent me to wash the water containers and heater. THERE IS MILDEW IN THE CONTAINERS. IN. NOT ON. IN. I'm no clean freak, but even I have my limits. Note to self - drink and eat from own containers in the future. Maybe I should take a leaf out of Mad-Eye Moody's book and start drinking from a personal hip-flask in the future.
0908: IMAGINE HOW LEVI-HEICHOU WOULD REACT IF HE HAD TO CLEAN THIS PLACE THOUGH. Forget payment, I'll clean this place for FREE as long as it means hygiene.
0913: Aunt and colleague are talking in Cantonese about the weeken-- THEY SAID MY NAME WHAT'S GOING ON.
0914: Attempting to listen (very very subtly) to their conversation. Of course, that doesn't change the fact that I still don't understand that much Cantonese.
0924: So this guy comes in and complains about his colleague, and then his colleague comes in starts spouting rubbish about how he would like to be able to CHOOSE what he wants to do as a cleaner. Dude. Even I can smell the bullshit from here.
0929: Looks like their mail is as cluttered as any other office mailbox. Time to start clearing everything, I guess...
0942: Found a cute gif - describes my feelings exactly hurhurhur.
0943: Some guy from a pest company just came in. Apparently there are RATS on the second floor. Dunno whether to feel mildly disgusted or think WHEE FURRY
1008: Helped this Chinese lady explain and translate some big issue about her child's enrolment in a childcare centre - felt nice to be able to help! Like I was actually accomplishing something being here.
1019: Regretting forgetting to bring my earphones today - Paperwork and a lack of coffee do NOT mix.
1120: Managed to download Telegram for Windows on the desktop. I'm back in business, babies!
1133: Listening to a 50-year-old woman muttering and growling at accounts in a mix of English, Chinese and Cantonese is fucking adorable.
1135: I think I broke Tumblr.
1140: I definitely broke Tumblr.
1141: WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH MY LIFE
1237: This is one of those moments when I really feel bad for working so fast - the colleague literally has to SEARCH for something I can do.
1247: TUMBLR IS UNBROKEN
1251: That's it, I can't stay here any longer. Lunch it is then.
1423: Just spent the hour after lunch resealing envelopes and listening to gossip.
1429: Apparently now I'm the office's resident Microsoft Office and Languages expert. Erm.
1430: This has been stuck in my head since lunch. I blame PY and Jane.
1539: I knew there was a reason why I never went into accounting. I loathe it as much as it loathes me.
1540: I mean, it's not exactly difficult; more mind-numbingly BORING. All this writing and numbers and more numbers... My eyes are closing no matter how I try to keep them open.
1609: I literally cannot wait to go home. Dead tired.
1703: From writing account numbers to writing letter referral numbers. Joy. Only thing keeping me awake is the ongoing battle in my head - should I send that message or not? Kamisama knows I don't wanna seem desperate but even then a simple hello can't hurt, right..?
1704: Autopilot mode activated. Mind still tossing the question back and forth.
1800: TIME TO GO HOME PACK YOUR SHIT EVERYONE TIME TO KNOCK OFF AND GO HOME AND DIE THANK GOD
