its been one week and i finally have time to blog..and i'm finally seventeen!!!wheeee! :)

work started at SportMag...well what can i say..fun and boring at the same time?the office is kinda messy and stuff and we're clearing it next week.because they just moved in recently...eh actually about 3 months ago..haha.okay firstly let me explain the company..its actually a design company called Lemon Labs.then SportMag is under their umbrella.Wei Yong and Lena are the bosses of Lemon Labs, our big bosses la.then for SportMag there's the editor Gordon, the designer Scott, the IT technician Yong Jin and Ming Hui who is also a poly intern..she just finished her 3 months internship and yesterday was her last day...so if you count correctly, there's only 6 people in the whole company..haha woah..so Celine, Cassandra, Grace and I will be taking over Ming Hui's job.printing photos, framing, writing articles, research, photography and more..the people there are all very warm and friendly..the office is actually a shop house.we work upstairs and no shoes are allowed upstairs.so we make ourselves very comfortable at work actually.haha.i think we have really learned alot of stuff outside the classroom...a great experience...

then training as usual.mondays, wednesdays and fridays...so far no mr goh...which is good!wahahaaa...been setting a goal for myself each time..only quite successful i would say..my stupid shoulder.

then came my birthday..i think this year's was the best!on thursday me and carol were supposed to go visit Chuan Li at the expo.but she cancelled on me last minute..hmmm so i went home and when i was about to go to sleep, Chuan called and told me he lost his wallet and didn't have any money to go home and asked me to go met him to pass him money.haha who knew it was a scam.it was actually Caroline, Aiwen and Chuan who surprised me..they brought light sticks and apple strudel..we walked to my void deck and we ate there.and i got photo frames with html codes in it!haha thanks so much guys!!i really loved it :) then on friday it was training as usual..got presents from Serene, Kai Sheng and Tze Jie.thanks so much.its great..then came lunch.i was eating halfway then Nat suddenly came from behind with a ben's and jerry's cookie dough and a candle on it..haha..it was sweet...thanks!!and it was my first time eating ben's and jerry's too..then i went for work afterwards..went to see the skin doctor first.he said my skin is sensitive to sunlight and cos i had an asthmatic history.lolx...

rushed to office after that cos Ming Hui said she had something important to tell me before she left.haha but again it was a scam..they bought an ice cream cake and they were afraid it would melt so they kept rushing me.haha..it was nice..thanks guys...haha..great colleagues!

worked till around 7 lidat.cos suddenly there was a worm in the computer network..so took a long time.then followed Ming Hui to the photo shop where we print our photos..then rushed to city hall to meet caroline.then had dinner with my sec school friends at marina bay..bbq-steamboat...the usual..haha..it was great..deep fried the meats..haha.then went to arcade and outrunned..my only arcade game.haha...then it was home..

went for the Carl Lewis motivational talk this morning..it was good..he made alot of sense..then stayed throughout to wait for the press conference cos we were there as representatives of SportMag.me and cass went up to him at the end to have him write a few words to all the readers of SportMag.we shook his hand..it was big and firm..haha..its really an honour man..haha then went to expo to lunch then met nat to go find chuan li at the expo..and i saw the queue!super long la!longest queue i've ever seen..hahaa..

okay now i think i can only blog once a week....during the weekends i guess..weekdays too busy i guess...work and training are killing me.... ciao...
