MId-week!

It's barely 3 days since my 1st day at work and some part of me feels like I've been ard for very long, some part of me feels like I'm still very new.
The ppl make me feel very comfy there, from other newbies and young colleagues to the ones who have been working there for a long long time to my manager and even the directors.

There was a sharing session over lunch today for the entire HR team and I had to intro myself, their welcome was warm and nice :) And I'm officially the youngest there! By a matter of 24 days hahaha... Then there were some informal sharing by other colleagues and through the whole exp, I can see that the ppl here are very passionate abt what they do and truely believe in the cause of their work. Nth is too small or too unimportant, we are all playing our parts to paint the bigger picture. They are also very big on developing their ppl to go beyond their entry jobs and having them stay in the org for a longer period of time. Not that many ppl are leaving too often from what I can see.

The part of me that still feels really new, is when I'm all involved in work. I'm picking up alot of new things and info along the way. Workload is getting heavy, already. And things like interviews, orientation, follow-up.... all these are just a small part of my jobscope. It's very interesting because not too long ago (now), I went/ will be going thru these processes as a recruit/ newbie, and aft that, I will be giving interviews, orientations and having follow-ups with staff that I bring in. In fact, I already sat in for an interview ystday and I felt like I was going to be interviewed instead, so nervous! But I got to ask a few qns and it was very funny to see my name on a plycard on the interview table :P the same interview table I sat facing 3 interviewers on my panel interview just 2 months ago!

I met mummy for dinner today and we are both very excited abt it coz we foresee that we will be meeting each other alot more often for meals since I'm just 1 stn away from her! And tmr XM is meeting me for lunch coz she's going to her company to do her pre-emp check-up :))))

I feel extremely fortunate that things are going really well right now. But I know it's still the honeymoon period and the workload will get heavier, tougher and more challenging as the days past, but whatever it is, I am still really thankful for this opportunity and I wan myself to rmb that.

Meeting Team Singapore tmr night for our EU photo-exchange session! Finally get to see Kit again aft so long :) So, I promise more photos for the next post, and hopefully a glimpse at my workstn (I went shopping for 2 days :P)!

I'm off to download OS4!!
