It's been 2 days. I hate the morning train rides. I never knew that one has to be super-model thin, oh wait, no, actually, you must be liquidified, to be able to squeeze on the tube. YESS, i know that i like to be hugged but i swear, the morning breath of a thousand crammed into one cabin is the shittiest way to start a morning. 10 years of walking to school has made me completely oblivious as to how vicious and ridiculous morning train services can be.
Driving lessons should have come first, then only start work. Put a downpayment on a car too. Alternatively, generate enough $$ for cab fare everyday. Better still, be your own boss and stroll into work any friggin time you please, beating all the silly goverment trappings; ERP and what nots.
Work has been deliciously good. I learn so much everyday & I'm perpetually on Google News. I've only been working for approx 18 hours & I'm hooked! There's just so much news. And the best part about online news is that the headlines tell you everything. So far, i've gotten my first byline, which they will run in next month's print! And I'm currently working on an original story. OMG, I AM CHASING A STORY!!! *squeals. Okay, its nothing glamourous. It's about "strategic hiring" - something completely brand new to me. Plus, the editor made me an author on their blog. My impeccable blogging skills have finally paid off. Hehe
Lunch can get lonely sometimes. Food is expensive around Bugis area, so I shall devise a plan to cut down on expenses... starting with Mentos! I cant afford lime mint mentos from 7-eleven daily on an intern's pay! People at the office are busy bees, rushing their butts off to meet deadlines and clinch exclusives before the end of year hols. Please let another intern come in and keep me company by Jan.
It might have only been two days... but i hope my enthusiam will last forever. I'd really like to pursue this. Maybe i'll finally passionately love something, forever.
To be honest, I love it cause it takes up so much of my time. Whenever there's a breaking news related to our department, even the lowly intern stays overtime (without pay, mind you) to cover it before it becomes outdated. Unlike history, news bulletins have a damn short lifespan. Unlike others, my life has been reduced to shopping.

I can't follow my family off to KL for a shopping/eating/sleeping and car-ride holiday. I'll be working. They'll be gone for 3 nights.
My heart breaks. I'll be home alone. Which counts for nothing when you're single and no party animal, by the way.
I'm tired, but satisfied with work today :) I can't leave the link to the magazine websites here because I don't want anybody from the office tracking my blog down...
