etienne, the previous account manager returned for a day to give me a crash hand-over course. i was trying real hard to stay awake. the sun rises by 6am and our large window is without curtain.
everyone is seriously poring over their notebooks and the girl next to me, a pigsy looking girl who gives me a most sullen expression, annoys me with her coquettish giggles and random talk.
i had lunch with etienne, the gals and two other guys from the account dept. they’re all nice and warm. it does seem pple really enjoy working here. etienne also tells me he enjoyed himself immensely. it was obvious becos he invited the entire office (except me, i think) to his house next week for a barbie.
joa wants to plan dinner tonight. it’s his last night before his trip to shanghai tomorrow for 11 days. frankly i wonder how i’d cope with the loneliness. and worse that work still feels foreign to me. but something tells me to be optimistic. like yesterday i suddenly felt it would be a good chance for me to experience living here on my own. but anyway, eleven days will fly almost too quickly.
