"Life is tough."
I need to get rid of these negativity.
>>"Life is challenging but I am up for the challenge."
Yes, I graduated. Before I officially end my student life, I am (slightly) packed with work, but mostly occupied by volunteering or society event. What make things worse is you got a team without synergy. So I "study-work-'work'", missing the "rest.
As a student we struggle to get a part time job, seeking balance between studying and working. Once you graduated, is only about working. Then you start to cater for work-life balance. I used to dream to become a freelancer. I can work whenever I want, wherever I want. I can choose to work when everyone is busying shopping, and shop when the rest working. Yet, reality is just too realistic. I end up need to take day off without pay just to see doctor or pickup parcel, since post office close exactly at 5pm. Spending without income. Nonetheless, I am still grateful I got a job (disregarding the pay).
So, I thought I finally can "work-rest", and I can give in the fact that I need to day day off just to do pick up from post office. Thanks to the urge to stay and the pressed for time, I enrolled into weekendS class. Note, is with the S. So I work 9-5 weekdays and need to study 20 hours from 8am-6.30pm on both Saturday and Sunday. I cant be "anti social", so I have to meet up and keep in touch with the rest during dinner. Let's embed the return commuting and travelling time for about 1 to 2 hours per day (depending where is the dinner/grocery venue), and all these block-off time, with the assumption of me sleeping 6-7hours per day...I wonder how long I can hang on to it.
Stay Strong!

异地生活（思乡）
整体来说，自己一个人在国外也算是生活了两年，分别错过了三个农历新年（其中之一是即将到来的）。有所谓的homesick吗？理智性地回答：没有。也许自己心里最清楚，无论如何我还是得一个人在异乡生活，homesick 也没用，所以独立了，强迫自己适应了。也可能潜意识里不去想了……
在澳洲，人人看重的是工作经验，所以大部分的人读完学士文凭以后都不继续念了。再加上developed country （谷歌翻译‘发达国家’）的父母鼓励孩子高中以后自己养活自己，自己选择科系，这两种现象是和大马的背道而驰。因此自己念硕士文凭时，遇着的都是亚洲人。再者，自己念的又是商科主修会计，95%来求学都是来自中国。这样的现象，重重地粉碎了自己想象中到国外求学的情景。自己也算是较为不幸，到了在大马不怎么出名的大学，也遇不了相同遭遇的同志，没能结伴，有些可惜……回头想，喜欢‘实验性’地下厨是不在外用餐的原因之一，省钱是原因之二，也有可能是不想为每次外出时都得找伴这事而伤脑筋。
独自一个人来求学的生活更显得寂寞。也问过不少一个人定居在这里的大马年轻人“一个人在这里不想家吗？”“都习惯了”。起初我还体会不到那所谓的“习惯”，觉得要“习惯”这孤寂真的让我浑身不自在。结果在没能回家的这一年里，自己终于明白那“习惯”的感觉。说不出的悲哀，淡淡的、涩涩的，为了明天继续过活，不断地在寻找寄托。否则那一丝丝的苦涩沁入心扉，像有细缝的气球，精力就缓缓地被外压汲取。
在家至少可以和老妈作伴。闲来喝喝下午茶、天花乱坠地瞎闹一场、在花园里散步，甚至静静地感受家人的存在。每逢过年过节，家人自然都会回乡探访长辈，团聚了分散在各地的亲戚。有时想起同年的朋友在职场上已打拼了两年，升职的升职、恋爱的恋爱、结婚的结婚。反之自己刚毕业，为了寻工而准备再虚度一年。在起跑点上，慢了别人三年，前途会是怎样的一片情景？
在外地求生，并非想象中的简单。许多事物总得自己经历了以后才发现“待遇”这回事，从来不曾公平过。处于这种劣势的地位，往往都会忆起自己土生土长的家，即使那‘大’的家不比澳洲来得先进发达。

#96 Appreciation: Job
I used to dream of being a billionaire, a philosopher, a Nobel prize winner, an author etc...
Coming back to reality, it is never easy to get that dream job. Too many people shared the same dream, and depending on your location, your presentation, your luck etc.
Living abroad and to secure a job (especially to secure a relevant job) is not as simply as ABC. It requires extensive hard work and to be mentally prepared for not being treated the same as the rest. I used rule out the job that is non-relevant to my background since I have faith in my capabilities and achievements. Like mentioned, we are at many disadvantages by simply based on the fact that we are not residents (although we would like to be one) and begin to accept whatever offer as time passed.
I found one job after 1.5 years and I appreciate the job opportunity although it might not being highly valued by the people, yet it enables me to earn a living and surviving within my needs, also, learning something totally new that I have never thought before :)

#93 Appreciation: Tears
I never thought of tears as something to appreciate. Never thought of it.
But recently, I have bear too much of stress and pressure, my sense of responsibility took over my priorities in life, causing me to focus so much on the things that I held responsible to rather than what's important in my current stage of life.
I need a channel to release it, but not sure how. I have been grumbling/talking to friends, experiencing the crave for food etc... Nothing really help much. Until the time where I relaxed myself, watching a random dramas and variety shows, and I started tearing out of the blue. Is not that the shows are too funny or overly touching, I bet is just at that point of time, I am not that tense and all the tears and sweats that I held back was finally release...

#77 Appreciation: Stress
I have to make it sounds positive.
Stress. It is not good to have none, as one will be too complacent with their current state.
Stress. It is also not advisable to have too much, as one will be drain out of energy and enthusiasm.
I constantly stressing myself that there is a never-ending learning process in this world. There are so much more to be discover and to be learn from. I am conscious about people's perception which can be a good or a bad thing to be. From the good side, I will constantly seeking for improvement opportunity whereas it could an invisible stress being exerted on me since there is too much "noise" and it takes time to cope and breathe.
Dear me, remember to take care =)

#56 Appreciation: Ethics
Ethics, a typical academic term... Yet, I cant find any word to make a replacement.
Ethics is different from moral, as the boundary of ethics is much more vague and debatable because the view of right and wrong is depending on the society and the outcome of it has much impact on the community.
I would be delighted if public view and act along with my opinion, but it doesn't mean that it is wrong or illegal if it is against. Talking about the recent issue that bothers me a lot is about unpaid work and underpaid wages. Being a newbie to the whole new career world, where the employment market is not as "bullish" as it suppose to be, thus higher labour supply. Company starts off with providing minimum pay, then decide to underpay the "employees" due to more labour supply and leads to now, providing a program where fresh grads need to pay to join the program just to secure an unpaid internship without guaranteeing future employment after 'internship'.
Is it legal for company (middle person) to initiate such program? Nope, is not illegal. In fact, is an entrepreneurial idea, entrepreneurs who saw and seized the opportunity. Yet, the fact where providing free labour to a company by charging the 'labour' a sum of fees... To me, is an oppressive act and it just merely taking advantage of fresh grads.
The message here is: despite how frustrated I am on a certain issue, the world couldnt be bother if this is not what being viewed by the society. If one morals aligned with the ethics, it would be less bothersome and much happier life one could live. Is either you change the world or you adapt with it or you get out from the zone.

#43 Appreciation: Time
Time to live, time for adventure, time to spent with someone I love and time to do something meaningful.
I always find time is insufficient for me. One might think that I am bad with time management? Well, I dont really agree with that (although I do procrastinate from time to time). I think I got ambitious and take time for granted. To me, time is a scare resources, and whenever I have spare time, I tend to go beyond and volunteer to do more and end up keep myself overloaded. Then, when things crashes together, that is the period where I usually stress up and tense up and murmuring and mumbling and complaining that I have not enough time for myself to do things that I want. Simple thing like sleep. Worse still, stress --> sleep deprive/ eat --> gain weight --> health ...
So never thing time/youth for granted! Is my time to reconsider my capacity when doing things... regardless how tempting the opportunity is...

#39 Appreciation: Opportunity
With economy not doing well, unemployment rate is one of the common issue arise within the community. Even when companies are recruiting, they often want to cut of the training cost and wish the candidate to work efficiently and effectively. They want a high ROI.
But hello~~~~ Every year there are heaps of fresh graduate from the university, and depending on their background, not all of them will have work experience! Is just like a simple egg and hen question, which come first? If the employer dont give the opportunity to a fresh graduate, the fresh graduate will not be able to gain experience, and without experience, how are they going to work or being promoted? One looks for job to get experience but the job is seeking for people with experience. This cycle thing is driving me nuts!
That is just an example that I illustrated. Regardless which kind of opportunity that I am referring to, I am always grateful for the chance given, even with simple thing, an opportunity to do something that I have not experience, to meet a total stranger, to attend some functions that is out of my comfort zone. There is a saying "Opportunity is available to those who are ready.", and my question is, who determined the state of readiness? Chance and opportunity does not solely depend on one's state, but it also rely on the availability in the context. I regard Opportunity as "Luck + Readiness", so just be ready and when we are ready, is all depends on when the luck arise. Saying this, luck is not something controllable by anyone, any device anything. Just need to be thankful when the lucky star shines on you :)

Internship Ends; Classes Start
Well, I suppose "WORKING LIFE" is not going to be fun for most of us...unless you are a workaholic I assumed? (Weirdo)
But I really enjoy the culture and environment in GE, and the people that I met, utmost friendly!! (Most of them I met :)) I have fun with them, casual chats, lame jokes, sharing about our lives etc. Most of the time I had when chatting with them is laughter, and I think that moment is the one I missed a lot! Oh yes, not to mention, when I had a few conversation with some of the employee on managerial position, I just get inspired from there... Is amazing when these people came into GE and stayed for nearly 15 years!! I thought usually employee will job hop for a higher pay... apparently not applicable for all cases... Haha
Talking about work or job given...
I did enjoyed some of them, especially something that you discover and there is the "WOW" factor, or after checking with your colleagues/mentors and you got inspired "Oh YA! Why I didnt think of this???". Thats the learning time :)
Well, but when the stuff is so confusing and complicated that I just couldnt understand it or facing a situation whereby people just dont respond to you and you couldnt get things done... The frustration is really annoying... and I think this is what I need to counter with since "This is the REAL LIFE" said dad.
Overall, in terms of task... the final words is "relief"...
Relieve that I get all my job done
Relieve that I didnt encounter major issue
Relieve that I build a good repo (self-assumption based on the above points. Haha.)
-End of Work Back to School-
I wish I still could visit the "Back To School" department to buy the daily stuff...Apparently, nowadays have to head to the ladies department for formal wears... Because of internship, out of sudden a quarter of my closet is filled with formal attires...*Sadcase*
Without a break, after internship, back to uni, and the first day itself... I have 6 hours straight class... What a life I am having... After I had 2 lectures, I realized that there is 2 assignments is going to due within the 30 days... What happen if I attended all 4 lectures?? I think I will be half-dead by the end of the month.
*God Bless Me* T.T
PS:拍谢啦，很累哩，所以就用英文打打，比较快XD

嫁個有錢人
別說女生，任何人都會希望自己有錢。哪怕那筆錢是用來存的還是花的。
誰說我也一樣希望有錢，但卻沒有很渴求擁有一個麻雀飛上枝頭當鳳凰的。自己曾經幻想過，如果當個富婆，不用工作，生活還挺單調的：看戲、按摩、血拼、下午茶，因該就沒了吧……總不能天天旅行不回家？？
但是在吉隆坡實習以後，我終於明白為什麼那一部分的女生都想嫁個有錢人。
從起床到工作到放工回到家：早上6點-晚上8點 = 14 個小時
要擁有充足的睡眠，大約 = 7 個小時
剩下…… = 3 個小時
在短短的3小時包括晚餐、清洗、檢查電郵、看戲、與家人聊天……
3 個小時，哪裡夠啊？
不包括OT，KTM 再延遲……
星期一到五，生活就這麼“充實”，星期六日，當然就會遲遲起身，然後就賴在家，都沒精力出去了T.T 所以今年的新衣，我機會在前一個星期買的，結果就沒尺寸了^.^", 買也只不過買了一兩件應酬應酬下新年氣氛。呵呵～
基本上，除了工作狂和沒有其餘消遣活動的人才會過的生活嘛！？！？
所以，我現在很渴望繼續上課、上學、讀書、做功課、聽書、學習……就是不想做工啦～

恐怖襲擊電動火車（一）
我非富家子女，從小銜著金鎖匙的孩子。曾經乘搭過電動火車，只是鮮少在“癲瘋”（顛峰）的時段乘搭，不知道真的那麼擁擠。直到兩個月以前……
手碰手，背貼背，如果有搖滾音樂就像在大跳貼身舞。
可是當皮膚沒有空間呼吸，直流汗。前胸貼人後背，就是互相吸進對方的氣息，再加上汗味……
噁～
這種難忍的情況大部分都會發生在第一和第三車廂。
因為第二個車廂是純女性的包廂，其味道沒那麼嚴重。
就因為中間的車廂是給女性的，所以當女人進第一和第三車廂的時候都會被男性像外星人般看待！幾次，我還親耳聽見那些男人很諷刺地說我們女性故意不進第二包廂是因為我們喜歡被男人摸？？！！說這種話的人是不是可以被告啊？
拜託，以為我們不要擠進那個包廂嗎？就是因為進不了才退其次，委屈自己，冒著風險進入包廂的！誰知道下一輛的電動火車幾時會到啊？？
可惡的是部分男性在這種情況還要佔便宜！！
乘著人擠人，就突然捉住女性的手，摸來摸去！噁～～～
一直想盡辦法將他擠開，可是又被其他人擠回去！
到站的時候，還跟著出來，嚇得我快步跑！！
不是不要叫出來，因為異性較多，可能會被人誤解，畢竟太多人了，磨擦碰觸難免會有。
搞不好還會被人嫌，說有女性車廂不進，活該。
更何況非同族，非同胞，還有外勞的比例也比較多，所以還是別把事情搞大了，真的很難堪。
所以要小心！！！！
×恐怖經驗！×

來月經的電動火車
在吉隆坡實習工作也有5個星期了，排除工作的事物，最受不了的是常常來月經的它，可是不靠它我又沒辦法上班回家。唉～
它就是我又愛又恨的電動火車。
眾所周知，咱們大馬的公共交通工具每個準時，即使登機也是（最少delay的）。就好像女性每個月的痛楚，荷爾蒙亂亂調動的時候（沒錯調動！才不是失調哩！），脾氣就只不過比平日少了點點的溫和，包容兩也縮小了一點點，但是女性仍然用儘自己的控制力，將變異減至最低。
可是大牌的它卻經不斷，至少我搭了一個月，一個月它都不曾定性。
好天氣好心情的時候，就會出奇地準時，可是機率很低 ×搖頭×；雨很大很悲情的時候，就會鬧情緒，遲遲不出現。
可惡的是明明就看見那白白的雲朵，還要擺大明星架子，爽爽就跟著行程到（極少），少爺小姐脾氣來的時候……哇塞！
開始等的時候： 1815
因該來的時間：1821，1836，1851，1925……
時間：1820
“The next train to Klang will be arriving in 16 mins, please stand behind the yellow line.”
時間：1838
“The train will be arriving now at platform 5. The next hybrid train to Klang is cancelled, the following train to Klang that will have all stop is arriving at 1925”
試想想想累積的人潮……
還有不想錯過這班列車的人 ……
同時擠入包廂……
不擠的話還要等多一小時哩！
全部人擠破頭都要趕緊擠進火車，那時真的是名副其實的一片“黑血海”咯～
看吧，這才叫做荷爾蒙失調！

實習
之前，我很好奇大學生在長達兩三個月的暑假，不到公司去實習（internship），都會將漫長的時間消耗在哪個方面？當時的我只期盼自己能夠快快長大，好好把握放假的時間，為自己的未來鋪路！
可是，相隔大考完畢不到一星期，就得開工；實習contract結束不到一星期就開學，這麼緊湊的安排，讓我喘不過氣來。也讓我現在的感受和之前的想法異徑而走。
實習，讓我徹底地感受到那種待在家的渴望；實習，讓我清楚地明白假日是那麼難得；實習，間接地讓我了解其實我並不是自己想像中的那種工作狂。可能是沒時間喘息才會有這種感觸吧，還是我本性就是專屬懶散家族？
（典型的天枰，在這個時候又開始矛盾起來：到底這種想法是一種逃避還是殘忍的事實？）
看看實習的地點吧～雖然我不怎麼確定有沒有違法“合約”。哈哈。
我的天地！！
我的公司～
實習的地九天，除了research，還是research。就還在摸索公司部門的操作。說真的，這還真的讓我煩躁，畢竟和我想要的有些出入，還是耐心等等吧～（我忍忍忍忍～）還有一點要怨的是，ktm 真的很擁擠！！！雖說中間的包廂是給女性，但請別小看女性的力量，有幾次差點誤踏站台和火車的細縫！！
凌晨了，踏入實習的第十天了……加油吧！！！

Warehouse Sales Part Time Journey 2
*Continue*
Second thing about what I realized was about language, (then relates to goals (?!)). Well, it was a broad thing, and I don’t really know how to categorize it. The origin was I able to speak in English, BM, Mandarin and Cantonese, and as I served the customer, language is not really a barrier, at least currently in Malaysia. Then I felt grateful that I am multilingual, and realized the importance of mastering a language. From there, I somehow got a desire to learn other language, maybe the language which is widely used in the world. Well, it keeps me thinking even when I was bathing. And goals setting come into my mind. Given an example: What is the use of learning French while I planned to develop in Japan? Isn’t it learning Japanese language is better? So, it somehow proven that goals are very important! It really do define the future and shape the presence. Do plan!!
Thirdly, office politics! *sigh* It is not MNC, so I suppose it will be easier for us to sense and detect those smoking issue… it is really unavoidable when different genders, characteristic, style of working, attitude, mentality, capability, wisdom, experience etc people are working together. Not necessarily in the same department, but departments which consists of personnel are interrelated. It is really hard to avoid this chaos. MCB [communication subject] may seem unimportant, but practically, it is something we need it desperately. I was amaze with these people’s interaction while they are dealing with each other. There isn’t a trail that shows that both parties cannot go along with each other, but the fact is …. Well, consider this an art of surviving in working field. Really need to brush up the mask.
Last but not least, gained some knowledge/skill which new and to refresh memories!
- Never wash your swim wear with chemicals, just rinse
- Never dry your swim wear under the hot sun
- Letter of credit and brief transaction on importing goods
- Silicon made goggles left less trail around the eyes
- “Art” of giving code eg: AJT (Junior trunk); SW (swim wear) 41125(year, design)
- Tag the price tag XD
Oh ya, I just received the pay today in cash. Fulfillment is definitely there! And GOSH! Hard earn money!! => Money is hard to earn T.T
Second thing about what I realized was about language, (then relates to goals (?!)). Well, it was a broad thing, and I don’t really know how to categorize it. The origin was I able to speak in English, BM, Mandarin and Cantonese, and as I served the customer, language is not really a barrier, at least currently in Malaysia. Then I felt grateful that I am multilingual, and realized the importance of mastering a language. From there, I somehow got a desire to learn other language, maybe the language which is widely used in the world. Well, it keeps me thinking even when I was bathing. And goals setting come into my mind. Given an example: What is the use of learning French while I planned to develop in Japan? Isn’t it learning Japanese language is better? So, it somehow proven that goals are very important! It really do define the future and shape the presence. Do plan!!

货仓Sale打工记 （一）
现在是YES季节，那么我也来个促销价，2in1, 干脆就将两天的打工记给记录下。
第一天+第一次打工的我，可是身心疲惫。毕竟前两个小时我才刚和“经纪人”谈妥台湾一事；前一天还宿醉；前一个星期还平均只睡四小时，不“残样”才怪！第一天嘛，心在想，天哪，钱真的真的很难赚。做到这么累，还爬上爬下为了拿货，花费口水一直再游说……唉！没法子，也得怪自己笨。同样的“薪水”，疲倦的程度却是天壤之别，我干嘛还得做的那么辛苦？最大差别就是在这里有的是免费午餐；在哪里就有无限的冷气机，外加准时的放工时间！除了累，还是累，所以当天的收获只有“累”一字可言！
第二天感触可多咯！从来不晓得跟着妇人逛街采购是这么地累人。而我也印证了女性购买事物的习惯方式。
（一） 还真的是拐弯抹角
话说只要买一件泳衣，结果从泳衣买到了短裤、连身泳衣、比基尼等等。陪着她走来走去，算了，只希望她选中。选中了，没有尺寸？好，爬上了一二楼，只为了找出她要的尺码。我长途跋涉、千辛万苦地为她带来了，她却告诉我说她不要了。好！我忍。可恶的是逛了几个部门，相中的东西少，可是收拾的东西时买的东西的五倍！一件一件地加上去，还要找对部门，再一一归类。多工的咯！！
所以呀，我深深地了解到售货员/promoter的心酸。请善待为你服务的人。没有他们，谁来帮你收拾？谁来替你介绍？谁来替你跑腿拿货？
后来我也发现自己对sales（销售）这一行还蛮有兴趣，专为太太们服务XD虽然我不做销售这行，只是part-timer，口水都献给了妇人们，更何况是那些正式的员工？可想而知他们的压力是多么地大，就为了那或许很丰厚的commission 『佣金』。我没有所谓的quota，或是多少百分率的佣金，说真的我很疲倦，但也很充实。至少我不会昧着良心说世界都是好，或者不則手段的吧？我想我若是正式员工，对销售这行，我一定会退避三舍。
总的来说，请好好珍惜那些一直为你服务的销售员。那些不理你的，请继续将他当成空气！
×p/s: 爱睡觉了啦，明天再继续我的打工札记XD
