there was a last minute call out last friday to celebrate gio's birthday at the wine bar organised by ben. i had made plans to study, but i thought gio had spend alot of time planning for our dive trips and helping us get things done, and he was starting to turn from an acquaintance to a friend. I decided to turn up for dinner at holland v and then down to wine bar.
who knows that guy, after many glasses of vodka, martell green tea and 2 flaming lambo courtesy of me and jia, gio concuss at 2am. after puking on my topshop flats. -_-
i had a little talk with ben after gio left bout how much we knew each other despite knowing each other for 8 years. ben made some drive through points bout myself which i didnt really see in myself.
amongst many things, the one that struck me was when he said i do things in my life not seeing the need to explain why i did it, even though some people might get upset with what i did. and even if i know that friends are upset, i expect friends to understand why i did things the way i did.
ben was hell right.
these few months has been extremely hectic for me. the financial industry has plunged into a inflationary recession which sucked coz my LV wallet has risen another $200 and im too broke to buy it now.
it has been a constant effort to prove myself at work and to make sure that i get things done the correct way. dealing with millions of dollars everyday means i do not have a single change to act on a wrong/unauthorised signatory instruction. my bosses all think that im someone who can learn very fast and adapt to new environment quickly. ratings in their books seems pretty good, but that also means i have been given more tasks than i should have gotten. fellow colleagues only gotten my job task/scope when they are 1.5 years into the job. im only 6 months old.
sch is horrid. im running out of time. period.
so. i seek understanding. please.
