Hi everyone!
Yes, i have not been updating for more than a month.
Been working for 5 months plus.
Ending my period of internship at the end of this month.
Looking back when i started in September, I had slight regrets in the beginning because there was not much work to look forward too.
The opportunity to experience and learn new things was slim when i was in the first few weeks.
But i prayed to God for the chance to learn and also to use the accounting software.
God answered my prayers! (Amen to that)
I have learned to use the cheque typing machine, issuing cheques (get to be a 'boss' for once!), writing payment vouchers, typing with microsoft power point and excel, photostat documents, scanning, faxing, filling in courier forms, translating brochures from english to chinese.
But, the work load is not consistent.
Sometimes the week seems so long because there is so much work or towards the other end when there is nothing much to do.
To fill up my free time, i end up reading news.
Yes, news.
So many websites i have read: BBC, CNN, The Star, Channel News Asia, Bangkok Post and some i may have forgotten.
Other than that, learning how to deal with different people is also something BIG that i experience.
Have to learn how to take scoldings, negative respond with patience and a smile.
It's hard really, i struggled deep in my heart.
Thankfully God reminded me once again of the Song Hosanna.
' Show me how to love like You have loved me'
Besides, I have seen the tension between different races happening.
For me I just stay neutral.
I try to mix around with different races.
Probably it's because i was in a multi-racial school and mixing around with malays and indians is not a problem for me.
Through it all, this is only the beginning.
When i become a full time employee of a company/ small firm, there will be more issues to deal with and my patience will be tested even more.
When things don't turn out the way it should be, keep your eyes focus on the cross and know that the Holy Spirit will give you wisdom and guide you in the right path.
