Week 1------Monday, May 28, 2007--------------------

I woke up at 7am and I left my house before 8am. Bishan MRT was crowded with people going to work. I missed my first train because the train was packed but I managed to board the next train though. It was a long and boring journey. Alighted at Commonwealth MRT. Took bus 198 from there to my workplace. Had trouble finding the it though after alighting from the bus. After referring to the map with my PSP, I've finally found the place. So me and the two other students which I just made friends with instantly, had a small discussion with Miss Caroline Ruam Quiyu. Since I don't know her position in the company, I'll claim her my co-supervisor. By the way, the two other student, one girl and one boy? Are both from NYP as well and there in MIT together. I don't know if they know each other but yeah, they seem pretty nice. Hope there won't be any backstabbing or anything like that in the future. Oh and the girl's name is Ester. The boy's name is... I kinda forgot because it's a chinese name, but don't worry, I'll ask him again. So then we have to meet our supervisor, Mister Loke Wan Heng, and he explained to both me and "The Boy" (for now, cause I don't know his name) what to do for today and this week. He then showed us our places to work and I must say it's kinda cheap and messy, but it's okaye. I'm just hoping it won't bring my morale down in the long run. I've been given a different task from "The Boy" which is to... Haa... study more about their products because I told him that I'm not really into MP3s and Hard disks. Needless to say, I'm no techno-geek which is the truth. Haa... So yeah, but I'm really keen into getting more info just for the sake of my IAP. I have this product called the 'CONSUS 2.5 " CViX HDD PLAYER OTG' which so far I've found that it's like my PSP. Mainly for storage and entertainment. Okay wait, I'm yawning now... Yeah! Where were we? Ah yes! The 'CONSUS 2.5 " CViX HDD PLAYER OTG' lets you store music and pictures and videos. Amazingly supports most of the formats out there and you can play the files on your television so it's kinda useful to display advertisements you've edited in your computer straight to the television in your shop! Or maybe even present your presentation on the television in a meeting, leaving your laptop at home! Also this baby has enough storage to back up all your freaking files into it! And if I sound like I'm promoting this product, then I'm sorry. Hahahaha. But if those of you who are interested in these kinda things, you can go to this website (http://consus.com.sg/productmm00002.html) for more information.
So Wan Heng just informed me that I have to be involved in an IT Fair at Suntec City this Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This will be a new experience for me. Hopefully a lovely one. Haa... I don't want to get scolded or anything like that. I mean, who does, right? And he tells me that since I have to work this Saturday and Sunday, I can apply for leave any two days during my IAP. This is like swell!
Okaye, I just got my Skype staff account from Esther. It's something like MSN Messenger though. Currently I can't sign in because I don't have the password to my account. -_-' I'm going to ask her now... I'm back and she told me the password is 'password'... -_-' Okaye! So yeah. I've signed in and I've got no contacts yet. Thinking of adding the IAP staffs but, haa... Later lah. Shy ah.
I've done enough studies on the product from the company website and the User Manual. I think Mister Loke Wan Heng should start giving me a "real" task to do after lunch which is like in 15 minutes time. Yay!
And I just got back from lunch with Wen Sheng, Yeah I know his name already, thanks to Esther. So the condition of the canteen was acceptable. Not too clean and not too dirty either. Mum packed for me lunch so I just bought a drink. This was the funny part. There were two drink stalls and I sorta like rejected one of which and bought my drink at the other one. It was very tense I tell you... Haa... Oh and the way back, Wen Sheng and I came across a $10 note! Haa! How lucky were we. Of course I was the more observant one... Hee... Thought I should keep it all to myself, but I decided to split the $10, so $5 to Wen Sheng, $5 to yours truly. Esther wasn't with us though. She was forced to eat with the full time staff and now she's telling me that she wants to join us for lunch tomorrow. Why not? We're all from NYP anyways. Okaye I just took three pictures in the office. It's pathetic cause I don't want to alert the other staffs. Okaye for the past fifteen minutes i've been testing the Hard Disk Players. Thanks to my iniative. I asked Mister Loke Wan Heng if he got anything else for me to do and gosh... If I have one of this babies at home, my PSP would cry and die overnight. Anyways, things have been fun and it just got better when I got more tasks to do like improving the display of the MP3 players.
