Office Politics (again)

Puzzled by the topic? Contrary to what it seems like, I’m still unemployed. Or if it sounds better, I’m "job-hunting", though not as fervently as I should be.

4 days of working with Sharon [the girl who took over my post], and I clicked quite well with her. She shares the same sentiments when it comes to befriending people of a different status or level.

It’s funny how people click with one another. The last time something like that happened, I was befriending 2 friends after being in the same orientation group as them for 4 days. Then the friendship went on, even though we’re not in very frequent contact, but still, one of them introduced me to my first temp job, and also to my ex-tuition kid.

The second friend introduced me to my driving instructor. It’s funny how friendships develop, isn’t it?

But I’m glad I knew a friend just before I left the ex-company. =) Sharon was saying on MSN, "I guess the best thing about this job is that I got to know you". How sweet. =)

And it’s easier for me to understand her stress level since I’ve been through it before. She’s handling a pretty good deal of workload even though she’s still new. Sigh.

On a happier and lighter note, Saturday was fun and more fun! =P Prepared egg mayonnaise sandwich [Regina, are you drooling? =X] to bring to the Sentosa [near Dolphin Lagoon] picnic with the rest of the gang.

Played frisbee, ball and card games. Swam in the sea for the first time! In my casual clothes! -.-" It wasn’t really to be considered as swimming since I didn’t dare to go too far out because of my phobia towards water.

But everyone got sunburnt because we sat at the table for too long. LOL.

Quite a fun trip, we even made a sand dolphin at the beach! Photos later, provided the photograher has time to transfer photos. Hehe.

Anyone going Sentosa soon? I’m also itching to go JB for some movies though, after finding out from Meifang that it only costs RM 8 to watch a movie there! -.-"

Wondering when I can start to swim regularly once again. Hehe. Too bad the group was lacking of one person, who was too tired to join us. =/

I used to dislike going to the beach and getting sand all over myself, though I like to soak my feet in the sea. I found it quite fun on Saturday though! Hehe.

Around evening time we headed towards Tampines to meet Jonathan [I'm used to addressing him as Bear though, might have to call him skinny Bear now -.-"] for Regina’s ballet performance.

Alongside her performance were several other singing performances, mostly superb. The one item really worth mentioning was that Japanese guy who sang and played the piano, he had that unique singing voice and style which melted me!

Was half-joking with her about me performing a song the next time they have such a concert! Hehe.
