ok so right now there's not much editorial left to do cos the singapore jan-march issue is finishing production so i get a few articles to do here and there for the time being for the malaysia feb-apr issue. so they gave me a new task which was updating our database. (that's the temp's job too btw, there are over 8000 names to record) initially i kept thinking why the temp so slack, whole day on msn (im on msn too but not whole day hahaha) but now i understand why. she gets paid for 40cents per name, in one hr i can record about 30 names (not just names ok, still got designation, company name, address, postal code, industry, tel, fax blahblahblah) so that's about $12 worth (unfortunately im now doing this foc as part of my internship) so anyway i realised date entry is not as easy as it looks and you cannot possibly do it the entire day and not be distracted to do smth else (facebook, msn, websurfing) because its damn tedious and after half and hour, my eyes were already feeling super tired and i felt like (and still feeling) sleeping on my desk. yeah so the work is damn tedious and boring, SIAN. explains why im here.
been meeting up with people for dinner almost every day after work. pretty enjoyable catching up but now im broke (ok not like im v rich in the first place) but smth to look forward to, beauty world with part of s29 later :D haha and another $63++++++ flies out of my wallet.......
