today marks the end of my 10 week stint at isos. and i thought it'd be good for a post before current feelings get overtaken but an entirely different set of emotions tomorrow.
okay don't know how to start. i mean, it's not that so-much-has-happened-omg-i-don't-know-where-to-start; in fact, the 10 weeks had been very smooth sailing, very routine, work wise. and in other words, boring.
but i guess as with most previous experiences, it's the social aspect (or lack thereof, initially) that is worth reflecting upon. 10 weeks is short (as compared to people who have worked beyond a decade, don't ask me how/why) but i think i've come a long way. from the initial weeks when i had to constantly entertain myself because 1)apparently i was invisible to the people around, 2)net surfing was illegal (technically), 3)otherwise i would fall asleep, till now where i have nicer colleagues and a funky mother-of-four as my tablemate, i must say...
THANK GOODNESS FOR THE NUMEROUS SEAT CHANGES (shifted seats at least 5 times)!
haha but honestly. i'm impressed at how i actually stuck with the job despite the extreme hostility (yes i really would think so) that greeted me daily, for the first month or so. for the dole, obviously. i'm truly glad, though, that things improved tremendously and going to work became less daunting. of course with the aid of our little rjc clan in isos, beforeworks/lunchtimes/afterworks became perks to look forward to everyday.
nonetheless. quitting was necessary. i didn't want to get used to matching and scanning invoices all day. and, i miss being out in the sun! so i leave for greener pastures - quite literally, when i start visiting ubin weekly as j1 camps facil.
and i folded cranes for the nicer people yesterday! even used my special japanese prints origami paper. i feel thoughtful (what i weird thing to say).
and now, embracing tomorrow is going to be a challenge.
