27/08/2009 I Gotta...Having another job. I gotta go on my English diary writing. Maybe from tomorrow~ 12/05/2009 5.12Last night, I felt terrible again. I even could not sleep well, which made me oversleep this morning for work. But that’s ok, because I kinda just lost track of time everyday. Back to what happened last night. I'm out of sorts. My mother just came up and told me how she worried about my study-abroad thing. She said she was afraid that I would feel down, but actually I think she’s much downer than me. She always shows her mistrust to me, which makes me feel so sad. I miss the old her, who was always busy beaming with my pride. I want her to become proud again in the future. I am so sick of others, who are always giving pressure on me, although they don’t mean it. Awful. Awful. Couldn't gone worse. I really need to come out of my shell just a little before things get pretty ugly. I’m there for my parents. I will pick up the pieces, and then I will usher in the age of Grace! I'd give it a shot. For them, and also for myself.
Today is 5.12. I think that most of Chinese wouldn’t forget this date. But the TV shows keep talking about this earthquake topic, and I am so sick of this kind of shows. I think the earthquake was a tragedy, and most of the people don’t even want to think about it. Well, let's just say the impressions in Sichuan left little to the imagination. But these shows are annoying me because most of them are actually just shows. They are meaningless for the people who are suffering from this tragedy. I think they prefer the money of the shows are used on a proper way, or something to that effect. So that they need not to be remind the fact that they’ve been through in this one year. Okay, I think we're getting into a very sad area here, and we don't have to go down that road.
Smile has to leave today, in this special day. Needless to say, I think she's a blast, and we are way past the normal-friend thing. I mean it. How come we are not success in our career? We’re just done with the vacation. Let’s just move on! We will be good next year! How'd I get to that? Well, knowledge is a tricky thing. If I get any news, I will stand here spelling it out for you. We’ll see you around.
Oh, it’s 5 o’clock now, and I am famished. Maybe way too early, but I actually am. And apparently, somebody didn’t show up to hand me some work to do since this morning. But I wouldn’t off the office before the off time. I don’t love to break the code. But I am so hot! Going onI just thought I'd throw this out here. But I can’t believe I change my mind. Last week I was always thinking of quitting, but now I am thinking I’m gonna make it to the job. Even though it is so boring to do the same things everyday, I prefer seeing the good stuff in this job. In this job, I don’t need to wear makeup, or have a business suit, or even have any vehicle. That’s perfect for me. You know, it's very difficult to appreciate this office time once you've seen it in reverse. So don’t take this the wrong way or anything but back off.
What does the phrase 'first salary' mean to me? Maybe it means that I can earn some money by myself. Or I have grown up just a smidge. I know that we could not just phoning it in. However, this first salary is too small to make me have the sense of reality. That's so weird, I prefer no money at all. That way I would feel like the participation and the experience are much more important than money. Guess how much is it? 1,000 Yuan? Yeah, you wish! 10 yuan a day. You do the math. But that’s ok, I have some extra money, big deal! Get out.
Enough with the job thing. Let us talk about the study-abroad stuff. At first I decided to go on my computer science study in NUS. However, a couple weeks ago, I met an aunt who’s a Singaporean. She told me a lot about the circumstance in Sing, and said ‘Sing is a place full of business.’ She advised me to choose another major for my further living in Sing. It's just such a slap in the face, y'know? But she’s right, I should think it through about what I need right now or in the future, and what I am good at or will be. So, on a dare, I picked management. It's tearing me apart to make a change, but I have no choice. You don't know what that means to me. That means I will have a totally different life in Sing.
There were three days vacation began from May 1st, while I stuck at work in Palace Hotel before and after those three days. So I really wanted to have a good time on this vacation. Then I was off to Guangzhou, with my parents. Occasionally, I found out there was a discount shopping mall, in which everything was 50% off. I'm no math whiz, but I did believe there were many things that would be much cheaper than they were. I'd just like to say that I'm totally behind this shopping action. That’s festive, and I’m gonna cheer myself up. So my parents could not meet me half way. By all means. Then I bought a lot of things, some of which are so not what I need right now. But I feel good and happy, that’s enough. I’m getting so good at cheering myself up!
One of my good friends, Smile, has come back from England on 21st April, just for a break from her hard and endless study. But all of us who’re in JM, including her, are so busy that I just met her three times in this half month. But we had such a blast with her the other days. I know she had a tough time in England, feeling lonely and helpless. Actually, so did us. The days force us to grow up. So we make a pact that we will be never beat down by the life. She’s gonna leave tomorrow, and maybe she’s busy packing her bags now. I’ve no idea that whether we could met for the forth time. But I promise. I would not break the pact. So you could not snap either, okay?
I remember a lot of things in the past year. Vividly. And I know that everything happens for a reason. Not that I believe any of the destiny thing. I mean, that is just mean to think that we are wasting our time. Life’s gonna hand you all kinds of stuff. You learn your little lessons and hopefully you grow. Yes, I'm familiar with the concept. So speak up! With full of self- confidence! I'll catch up with you later.
By the way, I wanna chipped in for Wing’s marriage present. How about if we split it? Who's with me? You can let me get it for you. 23/04/2009 HesitateI’m gonna quit my job now. Reason one: Smile has come back to JM. I need more time to reunite with my friends. Reason two: I have losen my passion about this job. It is becoming more and more boring, and I’m always stuck at the endless “number work”and couldn’t even have a little time for my English learning! But I can’t make the final decision. Maybe passion is way overrated. Eventually, it kind of burns out. So, you know, for all of those people who miss out on that passion thing, there's all that other good stuff. The point is, y'know, it might be a shame to quit right now, because I have not another job to choose. So probably I will get back to the situation that I went throught before I got this job. Somebody would ask, “Why don’t you just look for another job?”Yeah, like that thought never entered my mind. It’s not easy, you know. I have no car or bicycle, so the traffic would be a problom. That means I need to find a job near my house, just like the job I’m taking now. Second of all, I’m always waiting the NUS notice, I need more time, which another job would exploit from me, to improve my English now. And I’m lazy too. Pretty much, most of the time. But, you know, on second thought, quiting would be perfection.
Here it goes. What's messing me up? I've just got to go up to the boss and say, “I want to quit the job! Give me the salary! My money!” But I’m hasitating. Because I’m just working here for one month, and they have a bunch of work undone and need my help. Leaving at this busy time seems a little … selfish. No, no, that's not where I was going. I’m just thinking too much and have no gut to talk to them. Oh! This is so typical. This is so un-me! I loathe myself. I'm just gonna go flush myself down the toilet now...Maybe tomorrow would be the perfect time to cover this quiting stuff. Just make it quick. I hope I will not make a day of it!
I’m always telling myself, “I'm taking my time, alright? I'm laying the groundwork. I’m looking into it. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose the same road.” Okay, not exactly the same road. I would be more diligent and studious when I was younger. Mental note: Damage control. Get back to the improving thing. I will be back on track soon. It's a matter of days. Or months. Whatever. Staying at home and need not to work for money, does it get better than this? So I don't see why not.
I'm not sure you know what I’m getting at, but my parents make me nervous all the time. The folks always drive me crazy, picking on every little detail. Attitude-wise! There always have boyfriends and my career to cover. Sometimes I really want to talk to them about this. About what I’m thinking and how I feel about them. Say, “Can we be all grown-ups now?”But I give up finally, because I think some things are better left unsaid. I think it's nicer when people just get along. Spooky.
I am not smart nor funny, and every now and then, I feel like that I lack of something shining not only inside but outside. So, what is it about me? Is it my dress? Or my hair? Maybe I should go with some different dresses, which look really lovely on me. And always wear my hair up…Is it that I have not such a quality to attract others’ attention? Oh, oh, a quality, good, because I was worried you guys were gonna be vague about this. You betcha! I get it. Looks like I will be at least second to last.
Well, sure, what with it being my life and all. So maybe I just need to focus the change and it is gonna work for me. Or maybe I need to put someone on the phone, and make contact! I'll go see. Check it out.
Hey, look who's up! Gorgeous, how's it going? I’m writing my feelings for you guys. Do anything for you? 15/04/2009 LoverI never talked about my BF offically in any of my blogs, ‘cause I am always telling the truth and I’m afraid of some of my complain hurting him. But I've thought this thing through. Maybe there are not such many friends would care about this space, and I can disclose some facts that you may mistake. So now, I finally get up the courage to do it.
First of all, it is him who had a crush on me first. I know some of his friends thought that I was hitting on him, which made him feel something about me. But I swear that it isn’t the truth. The messages I send him were meaningless, and I actually never thought about him that way until the Christmas in the first year of my college, although I thought he was such a nice guy.
And then he told me that he had a thing for me in our first date in Christmas. And I thought about it very seriously and finally accepted that after a couple days. Then in Jan in 2005 we began our relationship. We are both eath other’s first BF/GF, and this is our first love too. So that’s why up until now we are always cherishing each other so much, even if we had a lot of fights in these four years. I'm not proud of this, ok?
You wanna hear a freaky coincidence? Both of us played flute when we were in our high school, although I played it much better than he did. So we have a lot of things in common. Oh please, it is nothing about who is out of whose league. It is about there is nothing other guys around me can make me feel such comfortable even comes close.
So we hanged out with each other in college, a lot, in these four years, maybe a little too a lot. Well, y'know, I had some trouble with it at first too, but the way I look at it is, I get all the good stuff: putting our heads together, between the two of us, to gang up on all problems we face; backing up each others here; knowing each other’s friends. And as far as I'm concerned, hanging out with him obviously agrees with me. He is a very clever and tough person while I’m not, and how he get every work done so good is beyond me. Ok, you know what blows my mind? He has so many good friends and also be able to make friends immediately when he meet someone at the first time, while I’m too shy to even talk to his friends or any strangers.
Now, for all you know this guy has his innate good stuff. So let me talk about for what he burns me up. First, he never said me something that I want to hear from a BF. I don’t want him to be my another father but he always says that ”You're-not-up-to-this” thing, which makes me feel violated. Even I have the most supremely awful day and all I want is to talk to him about that, he always changed the topic and talk something else, and could not just listen to me. He always complains my face, my dress and my talking, while at that time I would even think about the “May-he-rot-in-hell” thing. Sometimes I feel like that he is too sure that I’m not gonna leave him so he does not endeavor to make me happy any more, whick make me even want to break up with him. If he could not be that guy I dream about, uh, that would be a judgment call, maybe I should go another way. Oh God, I can't believe I'm even considering this... I'm very aware of my tongue...
Okay, let it go. It's not that big a deal. Look at it this way: I know there might be many moments in the years to come when I'll regret breaking up with him, so I save him now, even if we might not be gonna work out in the future. I mean, this is twisted! How could you even image that he get involved with another woman in the future? Take the load off, and mix and match, right? What a neat idea. You don't say.
In these days, he is fighting for his future in US, which I always encourage him to. It's terrific, y'know, he deserve this, after all his years of struggling, he has finally been able to crack his way into his dream. There you go, but I'm still working on mine. When I finally get my shot, I will not blow it! That oughta do it.Thank God I need not to fan out the vouvhers any more.O(∩_∩)O
Make jokes, I don't care! This is a big break for me! No-one is gonna be able to tell. So comin' through and get outta my way. Here goes. 10/04/2009 Memory and JobNow I’m sitting on the accountant office and having nothing to do. I do be writing this diary and,at the same moment, listen to what the fellows around me are saying to each others. And all of a sudden, I'm getting a deja vu. This office work seems to be the similar with what I did on the Software Factory in 2007, which reminds me a lot of stuff in my college.
I had rough days. There was a whole bunch of stuff I could've done in the past few months. But admit it! All things considered, I had fun in the last four years. I really miss the moment that my BF walked me to my dormitory after dinner or wander. I miss his innate Jingyu-ness that I adore. I miss his words of cheering me up,which, y'know, no-one's ever put it like that before. I know he didn't mean to bring me down, I always know. This guy's a good boy. I judge him. Even though he’s not accompanying me right here right now, I need no one to take his place now.
Cushions the blow might be not good for me. Loosely translated:“I can't stand myself anymore. And just give me a chance to figure everything out.” You know what, I have to pass on the whole being-lazy thing. So, Okay, alright, I’ll tell you what, if there is anything about me annoying you, you could let me know and tell me what this is in reference to. Before you get into that, there's something that you should know. It's okay, y'know,I will always be with you and get the advice. I know talking about this kind of things might not bring both of us any benefit, but I do realise the odds of that happening are slimmer if we never get to do that. So I have flaws! Big deal! I can handle all of them! I’ll go. I’m going in. And I am done,too. It’s worth. Oh, hehe, like that's a word.
Oh, oh, you want to know how'd my accountant job go? Well, you know, this job might just be seen as a break time-out. I just gotta do it, ‘cause maybe it may take my mind off something annoying. Everyday I just write some diaries using my ASUS notebook or nodded off again and again on my seat, except when I go down to other companies and have some audit jobs. There it is! You think I learn a lot thought this job? Oh come on! How is that possible?
Look, it's just a little more complicated. I always want a date, because of this boring job, but I always couldn't decide which one got to bring a date. So now I’m just busying working but lazy bout the contacting and organizing thing. Oh, gross! 08/04/2009 FeelingsMy BF is having his master course of HCI in Indiana U in US. Almost every day we have a phonecall with each other to chat for a while. His life is so colorful and he enjoy it so much, while I just can’t do it at all. He always knows what he's doing,he take his time and he get the job done, while I'm all chaotic and twirly, which is not in a good way. He never knows my murk, and always shows his excitement and happiness, but no careness to me. Like I wasn’t dreading enough, fighting for my future. This will sound unbelievably selfish on my part, but he really ripped my heart out, even though he doesn’t mean to. “Why are you in the title for murk?” Got me. Now how’s this gonna work, with us? Give me a “for instance”.
It seems to boeder on "BF abuse". How can I fit into this whole thing? What do I gonna do? Basically, I know it’s totally up to me. People around me always say to me, “People like you need to shoot for the starts.” What’s that supposed to mean? Maybe you will say,” Nothing. It’s an expression, a cheer up.” I know that you all have a thing for me. Chances are I’m gonna be this broken shell of a tough woman. I don't get my way. Of all the ways I ever imagined this moment in my life being, this is not my way. I always deemed myself as this high-power,driven career-type. But now I don’t see it. When did it get so complicated? Talking to me you may wanna steer clear of the word “loser” because I get stuck at losing my patient and self-confidence. You don’t get a lot of “mad” these days. But I really did be mad and not play well for a long period. So, got any advice?
Things change. Roll with the punches. I believe moving-on’s on the table. Fortunately, I have a job to do right now. So I’m going in. These accountants are pros. Kinda puts that whole going-abroard thing in perspective. It might take the heat off of me. I know it is a cheap shop, but I feel so much better now. I kind of gotta move on now. And that’d be it. This may hurt, but like I’d settle for that. So, well, here’s the deal. I hope everything work out, and I end up growing. You never know.
I'm welling up. How could I forget all of these? Maybe these are the days. Thay suck. But you’re gonna love it. And you? What have you been up to?Any stories? No news, no little anecdotes to share with me? Why not bring it up? I latch on.
Word of advice: Hit the lights…I will be right there! 06/04/2009 ImprovementIt has been several months since I write my last English diary, right? I am still preparing for my master-studying stuff. There are always some people asking when I go abroad. It seems to be a little annoying but I thought I took it pretty well. However, it turns out that I'm murky and pathetic all the time. "To hell with it! Why everyone keep fixiating on that? My father doesn't know. How should I know?" Sometimes I even found that I say that out loud. I was kinda supposed to be headed for Singapore,which I couldn’t.All of a sudden, I found out I am wasting my time for waiting. I don't want myself to go through what I ever went through in the last four years. I need to do something like, say, having a part-time job. So I found one about accontant for myself. Sounds like an improvement to me,huh? Though there seems not so much work for me to accomplish, I’m just like to hang out there and do something different. After the half-month office job, I realize that I am really more turned on by computer than by account, which I should have known.
Sometimes I think, maybe I should give up studying and find a real job for my new life. But, how well I know myself. I’m such an idiot, and trained for nothing. I think I will be laughed out of the interviewers or maybe get screwed even if I find one. Even I could get it together enough to have a job, what could I do? Well, it really matters to me and I really need to get through it. But what are we fighting for? I assume we're looking for an answer more sophisticated than:” Have a nice job.” But that’s it? You know what the scariest part is? What if there’s only chance for everyone for their fantasy, for their dreams. Finding a job might be one way of doing it, but I went for the further learning. Even if I am just waiting for it, I will not take this abuse. I guess I’ve eatabilish this is probably for the best. I can’t live off my parents for a whole life. I can’t always crash on the couch. Try not to let my intense vulnerability become any kind of a factor here.
Oh, I am getting a little ahead of myself. I have almost no contact with my friends these days because of the work, and you guys keep in no touch with me either. I got really freak out, and that's when it hit me: we're drifted apart in these few months. I was kinda hoping that woundn't be an issue for our friendship. You guys always took credit for me and that’d be good if you guys still remember me and maybe leave me a message. Here’s the thing, and yet I’m surprisingly upbeat. What’s with me?
Hope not to spoil all this fun. Big time! 14/12/2008 First TrialYesterday I went to a bookstore and bought three postcards. It’s quite weird, because I never thought about who I wanted to send them to. I just thought those postcards were so cute that I couldn’t put them down. Now I think the best receivers would be Yue, Interest and Charles, because they are really working or studying very hard in other cities or overseas. However, writing is indeed a creative and tough job for me. Thus, I think it is necessary for me to practice my Chinese or English writing at the same time, for the sake of my study or work in the future. Maybe this space would be the best site for my English kids-like words. So if u consider my words too absurd to read, just skip them over.
