Perks of working in small company

A first graduate job is very important as it lays a strong foundation on where we will be heading off in future.For me it wasn't easy,it took me 9 to 10 months to get my first job! The waiting process was really hard for me..perhaps that time was the lowest point of my life.Now i can greatly testify the waiting process was rewarding and definitely worth waiting for.Though in terms of pay wise it wasn't that great but i am contented with what was given...at least i dint drag myself every morning to work for the money!

Working in a small medium size company is fun..where you get the opportunity to know everyone well enough that they eventually become our friends/family instead of just colleague.MOST importantly i felt so much at home too as i felt appreciated and important by them... being the youngest in the company i am well taken care by all the seniors and managers.They always make sure that im doing fine with the workload that was given.

Even today i was told by the operation manager that she got an approval to get me a $100 gift voucher.It is a reward to me for helping around as my colleague was away for 3 weeks.In fact, i dint do much, i dint even have to work overtime and yet i was rewarded which is something good to share! Thank you :)

Anyway indeed its  really a good start to be a part of Schweigen .Hopefully for the many years to come i will always be blessed with good company,colleagues and environment.

Next 75 days

Those who knows me well enough will know that my biggest fear is to go back Malaysia.I even don’t know why Im so scared of going back where that’s the place my home is!(Parents are) ,All I knew is that the first time I stepped into Aussie land when I was 9 years old,I really fall in love with this place. Looking back 5 years ago when I came over and study, for most people their parents will accompany them for the first 1 or 2 weeks or they might have come with friends from high school or college. For me,I came alone without anyone. and I never misses home, or shed a tear leaving my family to come to a totally different land. In fact i adapted really well and independent going around figuring out how things work from going to uni to travelling around by public transport …

Visa expiring in aug,it seems like my nightmare is coming. After few attempt of ielts I still could not get 7 for writing.Looks like I have to pack up my bags and be prepared to go back. Sound so sad right..i have been trying so hard and yet wish wasnt granted at this point of timeL But I still thank God for everything HE has given.As all these years in Aus,his protection is always upon me.

Now im more open to the idea of going back and I even have some backup plans going for the next half year…Im not sure is it a bad idea to have backup plans,is kinda irony that maybe I don’t believe that he will help for the next 2 months..

Despite all the faith,thoughts, and plan .I’m  feeling quite lost for now .....sometimes I just don’t want to think so much about it anymore,the more i think about it the more upset i am..told dad about my situation, what he said just makes me wanna to cry.. ;dont worry la... God tends to provide at the eleventh hour.... or do things in a strange way, out of our expectations.if you look at your own circumstance all the time, it just remain stagnant and depressing. if you look at others, then u appreciate your own position.if you get involved with others circumstance, u forgot about your own problem.

Some random thoughts

I really cant believe and dont really understand how can a person who once taste the goodness of God or been very faithful and devoted in the eyes our everyone can just walk away from God and the community of church.I suppose it really illustrates how important is our spiritual seed to be planted on good soil so that we are able to withstand temptation of the world that are always knocking at our doorstep.

It is true that once you step into the real world it is easier to fall into that trap as compare to the life school or uni.As in work place,under the pressure of workload,undue influence of colleague from different background ,relationship and  various circumstances are able to pull us away from going church and leave God.All these are beyond our human's control but there is one thing we can do which is to pray for God's protection upon us so that we can overcome it all ...is really hard when we are in the mist of the process,but i always remind myself to look at the result and goal.Even if i dint succeed at least i tried and did my best.I am sure he will be proud of me of doing my best!

Of course one of the important thing is asking God to put the right people around us to oversee us and make sure we are in the right path.

Past few days was the most relaxing day for me ,waking up  in the morning without much worries solely because i wanted  to refuel for few days before i start preparing for the next exam.How good it will be as if everyday i  wake up in the morning without worrying much and actual live a LIFE! I guess is a process,once i get through it i will be free forever really don't want to live a floating life like this anymore. I want to settle down soon.tired and weary about all these.i need strength to get through it!

i spend the entire weekend catching up with some close friends of mine. Btw, i Found a really pretty gown/party dress from Forever new! but too bad they dont have my size anymore,the one i  tried on was a bit loose .Even they do have my size in their other branch i wont buy too as i have no occasions to wear.


The most exciting day of this week is definitely Sunday- Malaysia's election day,the day where everyone has been waiting for a new 'his-story' to begin .On sunday, i went to the event in StKilda road Season Hotel.I am glad i went ,as i wasnt keen on going the first place.Admittedly,this is the first time i am so proud of being a Malaysian as i can sense the spirit of the people cheering and supporting their country.The entire ambience in Season hotel was extremely good! Everyone was so excited and forward looking toward the result.Whenever the opposition strike a seat you will hear the scream of crowd and applause first even before you see it on the screen.Never in my entire life i seen people  like us 'The chinese' actually cared so much for the country.

Although the opposition did not win this time round,but in actual fact they won people's heart and lifted the spirit of patriotic in everyone of us.Due to this incident, it has stirred and raised the awareness of people towards politics and knowing our country better than before.To be honest, before this i have no sense of idea how politics works in our country,and i dint even know any political party except UNMO the most prominent one who has been ruling the country for past 56 years.At least now i know some other parties in the opposition and some well known leaders in our country after doing some reading through the social media or goggle-ling it.Hopefully the spirit of people will not die down after this failure,i sincerely want and hope for a better government in our county.
