My students
I have taught so many people before, the youngest being those P1 kids and the oldest student being my mum. And I notice, something very similar about these 2 students with a big age gap. They think they know everything and they rebut at everything you say, interrupting whatever I have to say.
This makes me lose patience.
Life gets complicated
If a person is good to you, do
(1) genuinely thinks that he is good to you
(2) suspects that he is up to something, or wants something in return
Do you choose 1 or 2?
I was in Russia for their festival. After our show, we have people coming up to tell us how great our show was. I was really happy that people enjoyed it. It was such an honor to be there and get praises. So I was telling this person how glad i am, till she replied 应酬而已。
Why cant we just believe what people say? Why must there be a hidden agenda behind what people are saying?
Marketing Meeting
My boss refused to let me off end June and I was too weak to defy, so I will be staying to play TOY in the FACTORY till July. I cant bear to let go too, because I am handling so much things now, and I really wanna see everything falling in places. It is an achievement and it will be darn good on my resume. I LOVE my job, my colleagues are awesome. I just have a problem with my manager. No worries, he is too old for blogs.
Anyway, our meeting is always fun. Today we had our marketing meeting, and we are supposed to present ideas. I guess our ideas are too YOUNG that our bosses have no idea what are those. TWITTER… SECOND LIFE… But after explaining to them, i can tell they are damn excited, cso they were like “DO ALL!” lol. But we cant possibly to do that of course. Need PLANNING!!! OH well, really wanna see these ideas at work, and see whats the outcome. Soooo exciting!
Right now, I really need to organise my time between work, my Englist test, tuition, dance, friends and a boyfriend. Busy people should not start dating. YESH. I should dump him soon. HAHAHA. Kidding.
To Russia and back
It has been a month! WOOHOO. Okay. Lol.
Sorry all for the late post. I bet no one is reading anyway! hahahah….
Anyway, Russia was splendid. Got into lots of troubles with “relationships” as I have told my best buds… but its all well, and now im with someone i like.
Performance in russia was a hit with the locals. I got lots of positive comments (with negative comments properly sieved out through translations and whats nots) from the russia side. I really hope i can clinch another festival for spirits, so that this wacky bunch can get to travel again! =) we enjoyed each other’s company so much that we are planning our own lil trip, and we are still keeping in contact every now and then. its sweet.
i think i have been very lucky. i always end up in industries which i once dreamt of. though i always ended up doing a lot of sai gang work but i did learn a lot.
first was being part of the magazine industry.
then, being in marketing in the theatre industry.
my next conquest, is to be part of the nac team for singapore arts fest. liasing with people to come here for the fest. cant wait to accomplish this! =)
Careers and the shows you watched
You know how you read books, and then everytime someone chooses their career path based on the shows they watch?
Example
CSI: Possibly a police or crime detective or someone…
Grey’s Anatonmy: Doctor
Law and Order: Lawyer
So does this I mean I should be….
a desperate housewife (Literally, desperate housewives)?
LOL.
Maybe not so funny. lol!!!!!!!!!!
My New Job
Now I truly understand why my lovely lecturers always pester us to intern for holiday jobs, and not do jobs like waitressing or selling mooncakes =).
Currently I am working as an intern in a theatre company, but my post is marketing coordinator. Its very stressful because there are so many things I am not sure.
For example, once I have to ask ACRA about some stuffs, and I could tell the operator was thinking who is the stupid caller, from the way she answers me. Im sorry, Im pretty dumb, but I did learn some stuffs tho =)
Who says throw away your textbooks when you come into the real world?
Im forced to read some legal stuffs online, and trying to recall what Ms Peter has told me, but I was … BLANK.
I also learned that NETWORKING is very important, I need lots of connections, lobangs and friends to complete a few work.
Lucky for me, I have a very helpful colleague who assists me. Work has its ups and downs, Im still learning the ropes and trying to excel. Whats more, Im helping to promote something i love. THEATRE IN SINGAPORE!
Hopefully, I have photos to load in my next post. Waiting for my dear friend to upload photos about Timbre night and of course, tomorrow is the opening night for Sleepless night and a media event on Saturday. Its all fun and exciting. I is cannot wait!!!
Stila Cosmetics
Hello =)
I may be tomboy-ed sometimes, but I do put on makeup k, for work mostly. LOL, cos Im too darn lazy. Anyways, Not sure what got to me yesterday, I bought a whole set of Stila makeup online. After some adding and multiplying, I got this whole set for about 60 plus sing dollars.
