Inspirations!

Entry posted: 30 June 2010
Mood: Good! :)

Yesterday i was sorting my portfolio in case i need it when i apply for a design job. So again i went to the bookmarks i used to make n look out for the latest updates that i'd missed. Today i went back to where i stopped n discover this web page n saw this. I read and suddenly i felt that my passion is back. When i was learning in school, i love to play around with the design tools, take photograph or create web elements using new theory when i was taught but i often got disheartened when i didn't do well. It really sadden me a lot because i tot i'd learnt very closely and attentively but still i couldn't get it sometimes. Then i would grind myself at home or late night to refine it. sadder but wiser :) I was satisfied of the outcome after all the hard work.

I still like it very much and today, once again i saw my interest is there. I am so glad that now i have a target to move on instead of revolving around the circle of losing my ways. As u know if u've been reading (which i don't think anyone really visit my blog regularly. ==), I couldn't decide which path of career to direct myself at all. But now, although i know it is very difficult, i'll pursue my dream!

Another important decision!

囧~~ oh no~~ i am confused once again! I can't decide which path of career i wanna go, towards design which i spent my 3 yrs of poly life learning, or jus administrative job?

The reasons why i didnt want a design job was because the work load isn't like normal OT u commit and able to finish cos changes keep coming in and it has to be constantly updated. Gosh that was very tedious and often make me frustrated, but this is job rite == i understand every job has its difficulty, Hai.. but i prefer more time for my personal life than being so committed to my job thats y i didnt want a designer job at first. Then i chose admin job, which to me.. is like "dead", repetitive, easier than design i assume? Ya, i assumed that but having been thru those interviews and tried that 1 day working, i find that it isn't what i like too == omg who can guide me or decide for me zzz Today i saw this job post of a graphics designer and i am so tempted to apply, i even drafted an email for it.. everything is ready except that the "send" btn is not clicked. Argh~ i jus cant decide.

I told my bf bout it and i even told him one of the reason y i didnt want some much OT job is due to him. I wanna spend more time with him because he is always hm after work, he knocks off on the dot at 6 and reaches hm at 7. He rarely OT, once in a blue moon i would say. So i wanna be by his side as much as i can. However sometimes i feel unjust to myself too because he is a game addict, he is very very addicted to his game and even if i was sitting there, breathing, he would rather stare at his dead com playing his game. I know man has his own interest and i shouldn't interfere. But he is very obsessed with it till the extend of not paying attention to what i said and it really irritates me most of the time and we will quarrel, and he'll say he quit and so he won't be playing. "What am i? a n unreasonable GF?" zzzz i dun wan him to quit i jus wan him to plan or have a limit in playing game and spend time with me who is his gf. Am i asking too much? He plays games everyday, nv a day he'll not login to it. Can u understand my feeling? I've changed so much for his sake, stopped all my social life, staying at hm longer than before, being more n more like him as in playing games too, but i was jus too bored! there are nothing i can do beside doing the same thing like him which i also feel some connection. At least this make me feel like we r tgt. sigh i feel pathetic

What should i do n how should i deal with it? I have a close fren who i lost contact with for 3yrs because he is a guy fren whom i knew before my bf, and when i started relationship with my current bf, i had to stop all my connections with other guy frens. my bf didnt like it and i was so in love with him that i respect him n did as he like. But i lost a lot of freedom in this way, it has been almost 3 yrs. I started to feel pathetic, n quarreled with him often. Finally he promised to loosen it more and allow me to go out with "frens", but still his face and reactions i could tell that he didnt like it. I am feeling so difficult at times. I wanted to chat with my frens but on the other hand i can't cos i dun wanna quarrel with my bf. My bf doesnt have much frens because he isn't that sort of sociable person who make frens or goes out, if u say u r a very out-going person who goes out making frens and go to places enjoying life, than my bf will be the complete opposite, is it very clear to u what kind of person is he? Both of us is the completely opposite but we love each other. However in this relationship, i am the one who changed the most to please him. I changed myself to go along with him if not definitely he won't be able to accept my ways of life and this relationship wont last this long. But is this gonna be the solution? How long can i endure? what if one day i decided to do things i like? How is he able to accept it rite? I am so upset sometimes when i tot of our future. Y can't he be more concern to me. spend more time with me and do things tgt. Is he going to wait till the day i left than he'll start to miss me, the old days?

What a disappointment

Entry created: 23 June 2010
Mood: Not good

Rmb the job i mentioned earlier... i was working on Mon actually and quit on the second day. Some reasons for it are:

  1. the environment aren't friendly. No one spoke to me thru out the day even when lunch i was eating alone. Even before reaching my working place, i saw one of the colleagues at the bus stop and she pretended nv c me at all. zzz
  2. the same girl i said who didnt c me at the bus stop, again she ignored me. while i was passing by her, out of courtesy i smile at her, she saw it and jus looked away! WTF? y so no manners?
  3. this is the most impt reason because it's the first thing that changed my mind in working there. Before i started working, i was told that this job isn't easy cos it's exportation. And it needed many months of training to understand what's going on n how to do it. But the woman who is guiding me is leaving in a week time n i supposed to take over her position and she told me that i have not much time left. == i was like "wth? clearing up the shit left by u?"

U know there small little things which also contribute to the bad working environment i defined, such as the route there, how secluded the area is as well as how low the salary is. But all these i could forget about it because i also understand that i dun have much experience and there are ppl who work far more than me. So i jus take it, it's ok for me really.. but things like throwing the jobs to me and working in such unfriendly environment aren't what an ideal or fair working place i'm looking for. I mean, i'm not picky but how would u feel during ur first day of work n got what i faced? How does that affect your point of view? well it changed me drastically. Jus to be frank.


apart from this.. another thing i'm facing is my bf's family. I am so faceless and felt inferior for being jobless. Really, especially when the sis who graduated the same time as i am and already started working for 2 months, the more i felt uneasy. It's like staying over for free u know? I dun wanna feel this way therefore i wan to work. Not only for avoiding these but to earn money for myself n future too.
