Gorgeous isn't it?! I've always wanted to perm my hair, but I doubt it'll go well with my thick framed specs..

Oh and hi! Its a lazy Saturday evening now. Not sure what I wanna do so I blogged!
Was having difficulty to wake up for work this morning and made a mental note to take a nap after work. But I'm too full to sleep now. Reason? Sis came to fetch me right after work and off we went.......to Jusco McD for their Chicken Foldovers! Haha. She was telling me how yummy it is after she tasted a bite of her colleague's yesterday, and there we were at the McDonald's today, for its foldovers! hahaha.
And yeah it was indeed surprisingly yummy! What's nicer than combining 2 patties of steamed chicken breast meat with fresh cabbage, tomato, raw union(that's the best part :P ) and some mayonnaise inside a chapati-like piece of bread?! Tasted like yummy sandwich. :9

Okay enough of advertising! Hmm. Life's good for the time being, work is okay. Thanks to the 3 new trainees, now I look forward to lunch time everyday! Cause that's the only time you can really chat. I can't bear a day without talking, I'll explode! And the previous lunch companions, they were too silent. :S Maybe engineers are like that, they don't really chat much over meals. Plus they eat super fast, after everybody has finished their meals, they will go back right away. Its like they all went out just to fill their stomach, not socializing or chatting. Worse is the only girl in the group was the most silent one O_O maybe she's shy, but I dare not make the first move. So the result is, I never talked to her although I've been going out with them for lunch for about 3 weeks..

This work life is actually very beneficial and has achieved its purpose of exposing us undergraduates to real working environment. Frankly speaking, I've gained a lot of practical knowledge which I will never get in lecture classes. And I do consider myself lucky to get to join a decent company for training, although cranes are not my favorite structure, it is good to learn the work flow of a manufacturing company.

Here are some pictures of my workshop in case you're curious!

The colour of helmet indicates your status. White is foreman or engineer, while orange is labour.

The workshop is actually a quite dangerous place. During briefing, we were warned to constantly beware of our immediate 3D environment. Not just in front, sides and back, but also on top of your head. Cause suddenly you'll see some few kgs of metals flying above you. Luckily we work at the office, if its not necessary we won't be hanging at the workshop that often lol -_-''

I'm kinda used to this life now, this is the end of the 7th week in my company. Time flies huh. My lecturer will pay me a visit next Friday to check my performance and evaluation from my supervisor. I still miss Melaka though. The food, the outings, the people.. everything. Will enjoy my last two sems in Melaka after my internship! And for the time being, work work work!
The stressful mentor is returning from the Philippines next week, and I am to expect larger workload! Hope after all these experiences I won't let him down! Fighting fighting!

That's all for this post! I've decided to take a really quick nap. Work always leave me worn out without fail. Not sure why am I so tired though cause all I did was office work.. Nitey! <3



Life depends on how a person interprets it. Give your best, be firm on what you like, and you won't have anything to regret.
"A person needs to stand firm, the only problem is where you plant your feet."
Adieus!
