WORKING ADULT

15th Oct 2009, my paternal grandpa passed away in HK hospital after he went for a trip to China. On the 19th, my sis-in-law gave birth to my 1st nephew (Justin Wilson Sutanto). On the 20th, I flew back to Jkt coz on the 21st, my dad n uncles n aunties were returning together with my grandpa's body. On the 25th, he was buried. Then I returned to Sg on the 28th. (My b'day went just like that. I even forgotten my own bday for once! That's how bad it was.)

2nd Nov 2009 was the official date that I turned from an unemployed, fresh grad, to a working adult. From the time I got the news about the job offer (before I even flew back to Jkt for the funeral), I had been feeling rather awkward. Things had been passing quite quickly nowadays. My mind is either thinking too fast or too slow. This is odd for me.

Anyways, so I've been working since Monday. On my 1st Fri, I took leave and went to formalize my PR application at the Immigration. The process was amazingly, surprisingly, unexpectedly, extraordinarily FAST! Everything was done in less than 2 hours. All I need to do now is to wait for a week to collect my blue IC. At 1st I was so worried coz I started working before I was even a PR. But thank God for His grace that I wasn't even scolded for it. I was just told to write a simple letter to the officer regarding the reason why I work in advance.

Now that I have a job, I can't wait to taste the joy of getting a paycheck. LOL! I know it's too early to even be thinking about getting paid when I've only worked for 4 days. But I hope my eagerness will produce good performance.

I look forward to go to work coz praise Him for good colleagues. The manager is an Indonesian lady but I'm still afraid to have any communication with her. She treated my 1st lunch though. I bet she's a nice person, despite having an angry looking face, coz my colleagues had fun and even teased her during that lunch break. Hopefully I'll have the courage to be more friendly towards her soon.

Anyways, I'm only under a 6 mths contract. So it's till April next year. After that contract ends, I don't know where I'll be. But for now, I've already planned up some saving scheme that I wanna implement. And I also wanna hang out to treat some ppl. I wanna save up so that I can buy things not only for myself. But I don't wanna over-promise so I'll just str away bless ppl when I have the power to do so.

Whatever it is, He will be the 1st on my list coz He is my provider :)
