Slow slow slow... time is moving at the speed of a tortoise for this entire week. Though i have mentioned so many times that i love my attachment at AIA and i can't bear to think that this is my last week, or rather, last 2 days of work, time is passing too slowly. I think the company wants us to clear our work before we leave so they didn't give us a lot of new stuff to do. Hence there was not much to be done and i got bored. Its really tough to pretend that you're busy when your workstation looks so clean and tidy.
Having department lunch tomorrow at 'Bie Fu', a japanese restaurant at Far East Square! I already know what to order - Ramen! I bet the few of us would order the same as the previous time when we were there, cos we just love that ramen! Yum yum.. i'm growing fatter and fatter by the day... had a good western meal at E-meal with Siew Lin on monday as we just got our pay, tuesday was a simple claypot lunch at China Square and today, Doreen and i went for pizza. Tomorrow would be a whole day filled with jap food cos Siew Lin and i might be meeting a colleague from another dept for dinner at Sakae Sushi! As for friday, it would be another farewell lunch with a smaller group, with my supervisor and a few closer colleagues. After this week, i will need to diet for at least 1 month to shed those calories!
I hope i won't cry on friday... really cannot bear to leave AIA... many of my friends say i'm the only crazy intern around who is delightfully devoted to this attachment. Haha~ but if you understand me well enough, you should know i'm the kind of person who treasure relations with people a lot.
The colleagues really treat us very well and they are willing to help us. Today, my recruitment manager briefed me on a profiling tool which they use in hiring. The tool is able to tell how a person behaves under work conditions and also how they behave under stress. She said she wants me to try out the 'test' and see how my profile is like. The cost of running one report is not cheap.. costs $56 per report but she said it is alright and the dept will bear this cost. I felt so honoured. The profiling test is quite interesting. It showed that i am a high I and high S person, meaning i like steadiness in my work and i like to be a verbal/ communicative person in my job.
James, i'm really glad you've thought things through. But well, you took one day off just to think and clear your thoughts, quite exaggerated sia! Anyway, hope you are as happy with your decision as you sounded on the phone. Thanks for updating me~ =) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
