Job-cation!

Hola my pretties! How’s you guys doing?

Apologies for the lack of posts lately, I’m still adjusting to this whole “working” concept. It’s surprisingly less dramatic than I thought it would be, you know, unlike in those movies. Things are much simpler in real life. Curse you movies for putting false impressions in my head!

Anyway, I just got back from Muar and it was such an awesome trip! Probably just as awesome as the trip to Sitiawan I had with nice senpai and clover senpai last month. There are 6 of us this time around, as opposed to the 3 we had in the previous trip. This trip I’m with me friend and other senpais who are just really a bunch of jokers underneath their so-called professional outer appearance. Leader senpai is one of them and also manager-nim, like after three months I’m finally going on a fieldwork with leader senpai again haha! I haven’t been on the same team with her since that Bukit Merah trip when I first started intern haha! I wonder what’s her impression on me now? Have I improved? Did I learn anything at all in the past few months?

Apparently I did and I feel really good about it. It’s just a very trivial thing. You see, we use excel a lot in our work so we have to make it tidy so that the reviewer would feel better while reviewing our stuff. It’s kinda like making sure your handwriting is good during exams for the examiner. Having been under Clover senpai for like what? Two months? Two and a half months? I’ve learnt to tidy it up really well if I can say so myself! Clover senpai is notoriously fussy about tidy excel sheets, I’ve noticed throughout the months, and it felt really good when leader senpai asked me to show her how I tidy up and where I learnt it from. Didn’t even bother wiping that stupid grin off my face and it stayed there until..after lunch haha! But of course, nice senpai also taught me a lot on how to tidy things up! Man does it feel good!

Anna and I were saying like this is a job-cation, like a job but it feels like we’re on vacation so job-cation! Haha! It feels really fun going around town looking for food and then just chit chatting and sharing what we’ve been through for the day. It was fun. Hopefully the next job would be equally fun :D

Hi

Hi, my name is Kimmie and if you have heard of me before, it would mean that my mistress was comfortable enough around you to tell you that she had given me a name or my scatter-brained mistress accidentally let my name slip while in a conversation. It doesn’t matter. Either way, hi!

What would come to mind when you first heard my name? Kim Taeyeon? That would what my mistress was going for. She probably loves that idol of hers to bits and wants to name me something that at least resembles her name. et voila! Here we have me today. Weird isn’t it? You’ll have to pardon that crybaby mistress of mine. She’s not only probably the most scatter-brained person you’ll ever meet, but probably also the weirdest.

She couldn’t possibly get any weirder, she told me that herself. Why yes, as a matter of fact she talks to me. Isn’t that weird? She talks to me as though I’m alive or like I’m her pet or something. She called me her baby girl before she decided to just call me Kimmie. Her precious chingoo says I’m my mistress’s daughter, which she agrees. She’s so weird.

You should see when she’s alone in the car. It’s like a full solo concert with the main act going ridiculously off-key and horrendously off-pitch. My mistress does not sing half as well as her idol but that doesn’t stop her from enjoying herself. It gets a little lonely in the car during long distance rides so I suppose she has to do something to entertain herself. Talking to me can only last so long before she runs out of things to say but whenever her favourite songs come up she goes off immediately, which is one of the reasons why she doesn’t like passengers for long rides. She likes her “me and Kimmie time”, as she calls it, so that she can entertain herself freely without worrying that she will disturb others.

She’s incredibly bias and choosy when it comes to who gets to ride in me. If she lets you in, it probably means that she is comfortable enough around you even if it’s after a short conversation. She’s weird like that. The front seat is, in an unwritten law, her chingoo’s. Probably because her chingoo is pretty tall and has long legs, so she lets her sit in the front almost all the time. My mistress enjoys her company a lot because she talks none stop and is pretty lively. She keeps my mistress awake and cheers her up. I can see why the front seat is always reserved for her.

If you think she isn’t weird enough, after reading this you’ll probably think she’s even weirder than before, which is probably true.
