Well it's been fun so far on day three - nothing much to do because there aren't many people in the office and those who ARE here don't have any need for me just yet. Been helping my boss take a look through his website to offer suggestions on what can be changed or corrected - he seemed pretty happy that I had quite the list when I showed him on Monday - and now I'm helping to correct the language mistakes made in the website's posts. It's not too bad, I'm having a lot of fun editing the text (yes I enjoy this, no it's not weird) so far and even had to rewrite a large chunk of text ahhh. The day's been good to me so far.
1125 - Followed the boss downstairs to listen in on him talking to a colleague about a case. All jargon so far, nothing understandable to mine ears just yet.
1134 - Only in insurance does someone dying sound like a happy incident because hey, if someone dies you all get money.
1145 - Boss explained a bit about the case. Still not completely understandable, and I have to admit I was focusing very hard on not zoning out in front of him. I guess the picture's a little clearer, though.
1152 - And he stole my post-its. Ah well.
1155 - Oh god I think he wants me to join his team as a telemarketer.
1157 - Oh fuck I think he DOES want me to join as a telemarketer - the irony is that I left the previous job because I CANNOT STAND TELEMARKETING.
1200 - How do I very very politely tell my boss that I don't want to be a telemarketer or possible FC on his team in the near future? Not just on his team, even, but ever?
1221 - Done with the corrections of the website - am I supposed to email them to my boss? Also no it's not weird at all that I'm HAPPY rewriting a wall of text because of language mistakes and sentence structural problems.
1223 - Colleagues want to head to Downtown East for lunch. Seriously? There’s virtually nothing there.
1224 - "I think the chicken rice there is damn nice leh!" NO SERIOUSLY YOU DON'T GET IT THERE IS NOTHING THERE
1227 - Everyone's heading out for lunch and saying "see you!" as they walk out of the door. I love being able to say hi and bye to people, but I also feel like a doorbell going "Hey!" and "Bye~!" so often. Ah well, it's fun though.
1228 - Seriously though. How do I make clear in the nicest possible way that I really just want this job as a part-time admin staff because I am a very poor student who won't actually have much time to come in for work once school starts? That's not enough time to sit down and do telemarketing, really. Honest!
1230 - I mean, I've definitely considered trying out the FC career, but that was in secondary school when I didn't mind calling strangers all day. I DEFINITELY MIND NOW.
1232 - So, so thankful for the fact that I'm allowed to listen to music at work - it's saving me now from the evil clutches of sleep, and it's going to be my hero during the post-lunch hours.
1256 - Switched from Sleeping With Sirens to Pierce The Veil to Oceana now.
1257 - SOMETHING DIDN'T WANT YOU LIVE IN ME MY BODY REJECTED YOU YOU DON'T BELONG TO ME AND AFTER THE BODY'S CLEAN THEY HAVE TO MAKE ROOM~ FOR ME TO SLEEP~
1258 - SOMETHING DIDN'T WANT YOU DIE IN ME MY BODY ACCEPTED YOU YOU DON'T BELONG TO ME AND AFTER THE BODY'S CLEAN THEY HAVE TO MAKE ROOM~ FOR ME TO SLEEP~
1422 - Just got back from lunch. Does the sleepmeister come to visit today?
1443 - Yes, he does. He definitely does.
1448 - I never thought that reading insurance could ever be this boring.
1456 - So sleepy oh god. It's like no matter how I try to keep myself awake my eyelids are being weighed shut.
1500 - Definitely falling asleep. Switching to EXO now because seriously, I need something that isn't as draggy as Oceana.
1501 - FIIIIIIIND~ THE EL DORADO~
1502 - SAIL SAIL SAIL GOTTA GOTTA GO GO GOTTA FIND THE EL DORADO EL DORADO (DO)
1503 - Thank god the word used here is "regardless". If the outsourcing agent used "irregardless" I might have to ask my boss to let me write the copy instead.
1504 - I kind of wish one of my colleagues had work for me to do - data entry doesn't sound so bad at this very moment come on.
1508 - I remember the days when I laughed at how ridiculous Growl sounded because what in the holy fuck was eureurong? I regret everything now.
1511 - To think that media law was so difficult back in TP because everyone kept falling asleep, and now here I am reading about insurance, and there I'm gonna be studying media law AGAIN in the next trimester. There aren't any exams for it either, which can only mean assignments. I'm going to cry.
1512 - Eureurong eureurong eureurong~
1513 - Skipping all the slower ballad-y songs because seriously I can't risk falling asleep in the office.
1518 - HEEEEEY~ I'm falling asleep~ KURAE OOLF NAEGA OOLF.
1519 - I wouldn't mind falling asleep on an oolf though, friends of the plot bunnies though they may be.
1521 - So bad, no one can stop her~
1522 - OH SHE WAAAAAAAAAANTS ME~ OH SHE'S GOOOOOOOOOOT ME~ OH SHE HUUUUUUUURTS ME~ ASFJHSGDHBVJDKSBVKG.
1524 - AYYY YO~ TOO MUCH, 是你, YOUR LOVE~ 这是 OVERDOSE, TOO MUCH, 是你, YOUR LOVE~ 这是 OVERDOSE.
1525 - So lucky to have you~
1540 - Why does my hand lotion smell funny?
1543 - It definitely smells weird. Did it go bad??
1552 - The office is so quiet - I really like it, but it also makes typing like this a tad awkward.
1556 - About two hours to go. I really do wish I had something to do though.
1714 - Went out with my colleague to the neighbouring office - so sleepy oh god.
1734 - Cleared out a lot of my old emails in my inbox - gosh we sent so much stuff to one another while in TP huh? Reading all those old emails makes me feel ever so slightly nostalgic for how things were in TP, when we were stressing over assignments and looking for and writing stories and editing them and photos and screaming because the photos were crap and generally putting a newspaper together. Stressful yes, hellish yes, but also fun as hell.

Found some really nice sakura pictures while bored at work.
