Mushroom-ing

December 6th, 2006

So, I quit my previous job last Thursday.
Tired of the banking industry.
Tired of selling wealth management products.
Tired of marketing so many funds every month.
Tired of having the branch manager and that so-called zone sales manager chasing me few times a day, asking when will my insurance sales come in.
Tired of 9 months working still uncertain if the management gonna confirm me. Can you imagine this? NINE FUCKING MONTHS!!!
Yes I am tired of all these.
I don’t care anymore. Confirm me or not I’m saying sayonara to them.
If they think I’m more of a liability than asset, be it. They can kiss my arse for all I care.

So, last Thursday, the last day of the month, I tender my resignation letter to my branch manager early morning. Then I asked if they gonna confirm me and my other colleagues, she said no news yet. Can you believe it?! If this is how the management treat us, I don’t see any reason why I should stay with the bank. Loyalty certainly don’t apply here. My branch manager was happy that I got better offer.
Yes, I got better offer, the opportunity to join another MNC as a financial analyst. This is my second offer. The first offer was to do share margin but I turned it down. Hopefully I made the right choice! *cross finger*

Today is my third day at work. I have nothing to do, luckily got my lap top, at least I can blog now. First day was really torturing, no lap top, no nothing. My manager gave me some books bout the company and its management to read on. I was like -__-” Can see mushrooms growing all over me.
Second day, they gave me laptop in the afternoon, so I started going online disturbing all my friends on MSN messager hehe..
Today, my god, please give me something to do, mushrooms start pop-ing out again…zzz..zz.. I actually fell asleep on my lap top just now. But I know, soon, very soon, all the work will start piling on my desk, I’ll work my arse off to meet those deadlines, then I’ll wish to have nothing to do whole day! haha..

p/s: Mr. Cornflakes, don’t say I never update my blog! =p

If You Forget Me…

November 23rd, 2006

This is the most beautiful poem that I received.

—————————————-

Came across this beautiful piece from the maestro himself moments ago that best describes what I’m going through… to all who have their heartstrings pulled before, this is for you… especially to the complicated girl with a complicated mind… thanks for the company for these last few weeks, it has been wonderful.

If You Forget Me

by Pablo Neruda

I want you to know
one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.

But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.

——————————————————

Thank you, P.
Thank you for your love.
Thank you for your support.
Thank you for your friendship.
I will never forget you.

Morning!

May 25th, 2006

Good morning to my dear friends *muacks*

As reminded by the previous post that I haven’t update my blog for quite some time, here’s a short one =)

So what am I doing at home on Thursday morning when I’m supposed to squeeze myself into LRT and work?
Well, I’m preparing some information for a client now. Hopefully can get an appointment to meet him later in the afternoon. Supposed to finish everything last night but I was really tired after attending the market update from Prudential fund house at Equatorial Hotel yesterday evening, so now rushing to get everything done, wish me luck! hehe..

By the way, I PASS my PCE and CEILI exams!! hehe.. Can start selling life insurance once I get my license. Anyone interested? =p nah.. kidding..
Insurance is not my cup of tea, I’m more into investments.
Starting to like what I’m doing, investments are really fun! Hopefully can get into investment banking later, perhaps 2 or 3 years down the road when I’ve gained more experience, hehe.. ^_^
