| Wow, it has been a while since my last entry. So here it goes.. Valentine's Day was on Wednesday, which was more like Happy Singles Awareness Day for me.. hahah. My job is going well. Not exactly what I expected I'd be doing after graduation. It's funny how the entire four years at Irvine, business and math were the things I pretty much loathed and tried to avoid. But here I am, working at a benefits/pension administration place. I'm learning a lot though, at my new job.. 401k, defined benefits, account balances, IRS forms... Ah, the fun stuff.. hahaha. Since it's all pretty new to me, I guess it is the reason why I'm finding it quite interesting. My co-workers during my first week of work were pretty quiet/appeared rough, but I guess it was bc I came in during a month where they had to prepare all the plans and get them out to the clients before the deadline. So yea, everyone was on edge on the first week.. haha. I stayed pretty quiet around that time.. But afterwards, they warmed up to me and they're actually pretty cool people.. I guess in this line of work, a little stress here and there is expected. Mondays are always shitty bc it's the beginning of the week.. But once Wednesday rolls around, smooth sailing from there.. haha. Friday is Taco Friday with Gen.. hahaa. What else? Well, as for the production company, I wish I could say I'm working there as well, but I can't. At the beginning of January, I thought I had two jobs. One was working part-time with this benefits company, and the other would be working part-time as well at a production co. But as of right now, obviously I haven't started the production job bc ever since they said they'd give me a shot to work for their upcoming documentary, I have not heard back from them. So yes, wtf?? It's one thing to tell someone you'd give them a shot, but it's another to say that and not do so. I mean, I have e-mailed the guy who interviewed me. He was pretty nice and I really wanted to participate in their documentary on Chinese students coming to the US to study. Bahhh!! It would have been a fun experience, but I'm actually ok with not working there bc pay would have been shittttttty for the long ass hours they were demanding.. How does "compensation for your gas mileage" sound?? But some things always happen for a reason, either for the good or bad. I'm content with my job and I certainly can use the skills I've acquired from this job, but I don't think I'm quite ready to leave film production behind just yet. Hopefully I'll be able to do both... hahha. Gooooo retirement plans! haha.. Lastly, why are people so anxious for me to go date? I'm seriously in no rush.. I need to get everything together before I can truly focus on a guy.. I guess you can say I'm kind of picky too.. haha. If you're going to invest so much time, effort, and emotions into someone, why don't you do so with the right one? Even though there are plenty of yummy fish in the sea, I just need to find the right one to cook.. :) |
