Sunday evening

Hello!

I love the weekends so much now that I work 5 days a week 9-6. Now I understand why some say they prefer work to school because at least after work, you can really do anything you want and just rest. For school, you really are a full-time 24/7 student because after school you'll have all the assignments and revision piling up and waiting for you. I still remember those days... exam periods are no joke.

Anyway, today 2nd August marks my official 1 month mark with Citi! It really had been a busy and fulfilling 4 weeks. I was reading my book and there's this line "The focus baking requires settles my mind and my nerves, doesn't let other thoughts sneak it." How aptly put! I think all I had to do is replace the word baking with working at Citi. Hehe I wouldn't say it's an easy internship because I've been tested to go out of my comfort zones so many times already (even though it's only been a month). But yeah, I'm very happy with what I'm learning and I look forward to who I will become at the end of this internship. It's weird for me to say this, I think it's the first time I've ever said anything positive about work? But I enjoy my internship and I look forward to each day. It's pretty exciting and fun. Thankful for the nice mentors and fellow interns in my team. (But why is that all the people I love are leaving :()

I believe in all work but no play makes Jane a dull girl, but I now believe even more in work hard, play harder! Haha I really like that my weekends are literally holidays for me. I can slack/relax/read/swim/watch shows and everything without guilt. That feeling is SO awesome.

It feels pretty much like my secondary school days somehow, my younger days. And it's pleasantly comforting :) This is me getting my life back.

Just really can't wait to go on a get away. I told myself I MUST go overseas somewhere at least for this summer but all the plans and opportunities came and I couldn't. I will be spending quite a lonely national day this year as my family will be away :( So i've been inviting friends to come over to stayover. I HOPE AT LEAST SOME OF THEM COULD COME. Lonely national day, watching the parade on TV and singing "Home" alone is not my definition of fun.

Alright I'm off for a bath, before I continue reading my book because the due date is today.
