On a lighter note,
I had this funny conversation with my manager during lunch. I can’t exactly rmb what we were talking about which led to this topic.
Me: I met J for lunch last Fri.
Manager: Oh, why? Did he ask you out? *sly smile*
Me: No, we bumped into each other in the lift and decided to have a farewell lunch for me.
Manager: He’s a nice guy, sincere and down-to-earth. Is he your type?
Me:…..*hesitate*.. Yes, kind of. He’s tall, dark and quite good looking, and he’s into horoscopes!
Manager: Ya, this guy I approve!
Me: *lost*
Manager: Must keep in contact ah. You never know what may happen.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This is the only other time I see my manager so bubbly, unexpected and crazy. The first time was when she was hopping around in our colleague’s new prada shoes and exclaimed she could fly in any pair of pradas! LOL!
20 weeks
Had a good chat with my manager this afternoon. Being my last day in the firm, I was curious why she picked me out of all applicants. She actually remembered my last sentence from the interview. “Although I prefer taking up the events role, I’m willing to challenge myself and take up the admin role and make the best out of it.” It was a make-or-break counter I had to the previous question she had asked about my preference between the two. Lucky for me, it landed me the internship spot! And even more fortunate for me, there was only that one spot open instead of two.
Now, 20weeks later. Internship has ended and it’s back to school on Monday D:
Cliché, but I am really grateful for the opportunity and exposure given. Through this, I’ve learnt a lot and feel that I’ve matured as a young adult.
Thank you ‘YOU BEE ASS’, thank you BU and thank you my manager!
over lunch
Me: I used to have bangs. Actually my entire life! I had the helmet head before this!
J: The firm wouldn’t have employed you if you still had it.
HAHAHAHAHA! True that. I would have looked too kiddy!
Gratitude
Lunch treat from Jo, pre CNY cum last lunch. To be honest, I didn’t forge much friendships in the firm. Other than the age gap, it is also due to different frequencies/mindsets. But today was an exception. I totally felt myself when i was with him. You know that feeling you get when you feel totally comfortable with someone versus having to put on a ‘fake front’. Things you agree to although you don’t, things you laugh at when you don’t think it’s funny.. i’m glad that i met him to catch up, to end internship on a high note.
With the tabacco running through my lungs and the wind in my hair..

I can’t sleep and there’s classroom session tmr morning. The more I can’t sleep, the more I think. Think about what’s next for me after graduation, about where I wanna travel to after grad, about my relationship with people I love and care for, about how to save up enough to support myself and do what I like, about the international internship Cass talked to me about, about work… ItBs just so many things, it’s pretty overwhelming.
And at the same time, something else is bothering me so bad, i’m at a loss and I don’t know what to do. Actually I don’t want to do anything anymore, i’m just sick of whatever that comes after that. There’s just no point.
Not helping ‘cause everything is making me feel unworthy, jaded, redundant, lonely, all in one way or another. Really need a break / mini getaway, which i hope i’ll be getting soon! An early 21st stay at Quincy with the 2.
Dread school tomorrow. These are not the kind of familiar faces i want to see either.
Goodnight folks!
