Happy new year~ Well not yet, but you know..
2nd week into my work, and as usual, I’M TIRED.
Gosh I didn’t know working can be so physically draining. Can I have to carry on doing this for another 6 months?? Ohwells, losers can’t be choosers. I need the money!
Other than all the technical stuff pertaining to a job as a patient service associate, this job taught me how to just suck all the anger/sadness/feeling of unworthiness back into my guts. All my friends who are working as temporary staff just like me came to a consensus that those feelings do not only come from patients, but from some of our fellow colleagues as well. But what can we do honestly? After all we’re temporary workers, we work and we leave.
Sometimes I feel as though we are hired to be “saikang warriors”, to do all the mundane jobs for them which they do not like to do. But then again, sometimes the patients that you helped thank you after you helped them – that feeling is so gratifying!

Okay enough of my ten cents worth of my job. I think I typed so much about it these few days, it’s starting to get boring and people can’t be bothered to read my blog anymore. Actually I can’t be bothered to blog anymore too, cos I’m so dang tired everyday.
OWELLS.
NEW YEAR’S COMING. THEN CHINESE NEW YEAR WOOOHOOOO.
I’ve got no plans for new year celebrations again this year. Boring? Yeah I admit I’m quite a boring person. But introspective. I like to spend my last day of every year thinking about the past year and what to achieve in the next year, so my new year countdown is usually a quiet one. Not exactly a fan of crazy countdown parties cos I’m not a night person; I sleep at 10pm! And as I grow older I’m starting to find these kind of parties rather dumb – I don’t even watch them on TV anymore. What’s the point of watching people sing and dance on the last day of the year?
Hope 2012 will be great year! I don’t believe those rubbish about 21/12/12 but even if it does happen (like major catastrophes that hit many countries and killed many people, or worse still, HIT SINGAPORE) then I’ll pray that my family and friends will be safe. And then I’ll go join Mercy Relief.
Sigh, thank goodness my job allows me to help people in some way or another.
I think my life will be very meaningless if I’m living for selfish purposes.
