Busy, Hectic, Tiring Week. Enjoying It BUT...

Time flies. I've actually started work for 2.5 weeks already! My so-called honeymoon period was pretty short...haha~~ But that's perfectly fine for me, I hate to rot around in office for too long. Besides, getting started early did help me to settle down at my workplace real fast. Coolz~~ Like it, enjoying my job. Got a good boss & nice colleagues around, guess these contribute alot. I have been working late these days, just too much work to clear and time passed too fast at office...haha~~ Hmm...craving for a swim this week, swimming has became part of my weekly routine since I graduated...haha~~ Used to reach the pool at least twice a week, but since I started work, can hardly do that... That's rather sad...Haiz... Planned to swim on wed & today, even brought all my stuff to work... But, my work schedules seemed to go against me most of the time.. Gotta work late! Haiz...sad, sad....when can I have my simple wish granted?? Hope soon... Let's hope...haha~~

First Day @ Work

Well, today was my first day as a Research Associate. I was pretty excited yesterday nite,almost cannot sleep...hehe..expected that earlier,so I had my schedule packed for yesterday,so that I wouldn't have too time to think about today and hence lessen my nervousness...haha~~ Stupid idea... Today was a rather relaxed day,It started off with a so-called test by the admin person... She asked me to help her take some pics...haha~~Nothing that's job-related...It's for her personal keeping...Really funny...I was warmly welcomed by my colleagues & went for a few rounds of briefings. Met quite a number of nice & interesting people, especially the Europeans, really nice, chatty & bubbly..hehe...Eventually got to do a bit of preparative work in the lab...Wow~~ It has been four months since I last stepped into the lab...Felt great!! I was busy preparing some chemicals for my reactions (hopefuuly will be carried out next week)..hehe~~
