LIVING IN HEAVEN

I was living in heaven for these two weeks! Actually one of the reasons, which is commonly known, is not really good to be disclosed here, so i just keep it to myself. Haha. And another reason, i bet no one will know about this. Well, i will also just keep to myself since it will cause some unnecessary misunderstanding, i guess. 

So why am i writing this? Haha, i am now asking myself as well. I initially wish to appreciate all i have now but it seems very sensitive to be discussed here. Hmm... Perhaps, let me take a bathe first and think about it. 

I really feel lucky for having the chance to enjoy all i have gone through. I would take everything as a joy because i enjoy learning new things. I am very glad that i didn't reject KPMG or i wouldn't be me as in today. I've met lots of nice seniors who are always willing to share with me their knowledge and experience. I'll never never forget the moment i spent in KP and with all my beloved colleagues. Because of this meaningful internship, i've been to SP for the very first time, spent 3 weeks over there. I've been following 3 seniors, learning different things from them. As a short conclusion, i am very happy in these 3 months until i don't want to go back to my college. 

But, i still have to be back and work hard for my ACCA qualification. I bet i will be back, though almost 100% people that i've met are not encouraging this. We will see how after 1 and a half year. =D

I still left one week living in heaven. And i'll be back to reality.

AN UPDATE AGAIN - BUT NOT ABOUT INTERN =D

Woah, i just realized that all my recent posts are about internship! So i decided to write something out of internship. I think it might be very short 'cause somehow some "matters" i can't share here.

I discovered that i like to fill up my time with work. One A1 told me that auditor in China actually died because of too much workload. It sounds scary, but i still prefer life with work rather than life without work. I mean, maybe i was born like this, or i was trained to be like this, i can't stand the days without work. I will feel this is a waste of my time. I want to fill my time meaningfully. So i guess i will become an auditor next time. But i have a problem here. I might be very busy until i don't have time for others. So... I don't know how to write here, but this is really a big concern for me. A BIG ONE. I mean, the concern is about, how i deal with the "others", i will still carry on my wish to become an auditor. =D See la, if i really can't stand, i might quit someday. =D But i think i can. LOL.

Someone said my mind changed after internship. I guess this is very normal. I've heard others saying that becoming an auditor isn't really an easy job because you need to work until very late. Now i really experienced how the life of an auditor is. So it's very natural for me to change my thinking. I start to look into future and consider all the factors if my future life is way like this.

On last Thursday, i reached at about 11++, almost 12. My dad sms-ed me and asked why i am so late. I guess if next time i go back to KPMG, my dad might be asking this same question everyday, will he? LOL. My mom is still fine, she understands this is work. And i have a hard time dealing this with BIG PIG at my home. He said he can understand when i really come out to work, but i really didn't know how much he can understand... If i really become permanent employee, i will be even worse than now, because my style is, if i am working, i won't bother about others. My mom really knows my pattern well, she knows. But i don't think BIG PIG can stand. How??? Let thing becomes what it should be la. =D

Okay, just a small part for internship. I learnt a lot this week handling the roll forward of the inventory. Finally my job is done and i want to thank the A2 that guided me for all these. I can't imagine if he is not around how i could finish my job. I kept on pouring questions to him although he is not so free to answer me. So sorry yet so thankful to him.

This week is still a happy one, though i have to work until very late, even after i am back to home. I guess i am used to it? No, i am still very "young" to talk about this. We will see how. =D

I am ending my internship soon, feeling not going back to college, wanna stay here~~~~~ haha.

AN UPDATE

This post is just an update for my recent life. I really don't know what title i should put, seriously... ><

Well, i was back to office for two days and i am glad that i actually happened to meet a few TARC trainees and have lunch with them. I thought i would be alone at first, not knowing some of them would actually go back. We were very happy chatting and sharing our experience of dealing with clients. Some clients are really nice, and one of my friends actually met those nice one, which she now thinks herself is very lucky compared to us. LOL. Whereas for us, actually still fine lah, it's just that either we got some difficult jobs or we met some troublesome clients. It's, anyway, a great experience, and a great chance for us to learn what's patience. Like my senior said, we will be very "thick-face" after becoming an auditor. LOL.

Hmm... The past week i was still going to Prai, for three days. Guess what time i was back to home? Around 11pm+. Serious. The first day was a terrible one, with everyone not knowing until when we would be working. So everyone did not prepare for dinner, ending up being hungry for the whole night. That's a really bad day. So, the next day, we headed to bakery and kedai runcit for bread and biscuit. The situation was just like we would actually be camping at client's office! LOL. Everyone was so scared to be hungry again at night. Some people even proposed to buy mattress and pillow, without forgetting tooth paste and brush. LOL. I said this is more like "outstation".

I finally have work to do, have a thing to be busy with. I am happy with life like this, though some issues i have to think and think and think. This client is a big one so sometimes i might not be able to get what i want. So i was really busy searching for what so called audit evidence (finally i know what's that! =D) and verifying client's statement. But i really learnt a lot. I must thank my senior for trusting me and let me handle the whole EE5.1 section. LOL though i know she allocated me for this job is not because she trusts me. I sometimes feel that i am very stupid because my thinking is very straight. If i am asked to finish a task, i must be explained clearly only i will know what i should do. And if i don't understand, i will keep on pouring questions to seniors. I guess they will feel very troublesome and annoyed for having a trainee like me. But nvm, we have to learn. I did many things wrongly but i learnt from that. Maybe i am born to learn new things in this way and i accept it. I need to be grateful for all the chance i have for me to explore the world. This is what life is, it doesn't come in the way you wish, instead it enriches you with obstacles and provide you a learning path. So after you have gone through it, you will be a great person with enriched knowledge and experience. Nice. =D I couldn't believe i wrote this. =)

I just happened to browse through one of my friends' blog and she said, she thinks she falls in love with someone. I don't know who that is but i have feeling to share my opinion. If who she means is a senior in the firm, i think she might be just "admire" him but not falling in love.
If you admire a person, you'll sure be happy to see him or even work with him. When you don't see him (maybe in office) you might be wondering where he is. Is he out to client's office? I think all these are very normal for "admiring".
Also, she said one of her friends said admiring for more than two weeks might be falling in love, which i don't really agree lah. There must be reasons for you to admire a person, and if you work with him for more than two weeks, it's quite impossible for you to stop admiring someone after two weeks right? The reasons will always be there, because he is he himself.

If you ask me will i have the same experience? I will say of course. Everyone will meet someone they really admire when first join a community (not only firm but also a community like new friends group and new classmates). As for me, KPMG has a lot of seniors who are really capable and nice. They might not know they are really awesome, but a person will shine when he/she is confident, capable and nice to person around him/her. I hope in future i might be someone like this. =D I am always imagining if i have a trainee... LOL You might be laughing as i have not even ended my internship, that's still long way from here. But it will arrive soon, someday. i will be treating him/her very nice i guess, if my temper is in control. =D
