it is now 3.27pm on 31 dec 2009.. in another 13 minutes.. i can declare the surprise that changed my life.. is a year old.. that day, 3.40pm on 31 dec 2008.. i received a call from KPMG that offer me a job in the department i have loved.. i still remember, i was so excited and shocked to receive that call.. i was in the middle studying for my south east asia and the global economy subject and i got so stunned that i cannot continue at all.. i was so excited!! and then thats how i ended a beautiful challenging year of 2008 and begin an even more challenging year of 2009..
january 2009 - exams i will never forget because i guess that is the exam i really invest the entire of my effort in.. and i got what i wanted in return.. in february.. it is also the last time when i declare an end to my war with one of my besties.. march turned out to be quieter.. because we are busy with our financial analysis project as well as corporate finance.. and that is our final semester in university, thus we cherished it to the fullest.. but one thing i really did almost every evening and now i missed it so.. my walks by the lake during evenings.. which earn me the nickname of lake girl.. i really love those evenings and normally in my mind.. i kept my memories during internship and review them in my mind over and over again while i was walking..
april 2009 was an interesting month.. on the 4th, which is the morning for our annual dinner, we went for studio shoot!! i had loads of fun.. although it was really tiring.. but it is worth it because all the pics, i still keep it as a part of the memories i will cherish, now and forever.. even now, it is at the desktop of my computer in office and many people, including my boss asked me about it.. yeah, these are memories i loved and the annual dinner, well.. this year was quite good actually.. and as if it have not been enough during the day, we further take more pics at night.. lolz...
may 2009... our finals.. which we have gotten the result during late june.. was the first real disappointment of the year and one of the greatest in my life.. my results was not bad.. but after such effort into it for the sake of first class... i was close enough.. just 0.2% behind which the university refused to give me,, should there be no mark down on my advertising, i would hava made it.. such a waste..
july 2009.. my second disappointment in life.. i have been looking forward to coming back ot KPMG so much, wanted corporate tax from the beginning.. then on the first day i came up.. i was told that the department was full and transfer me without giving me any choice.. to be with IES.. i have no choice but to agree.. for 2 months, i was very reluctant to work well.. it is not done on purpose.. but i was very hurt and felt betrayed.. and i really dislike this department then.. i was fighting against my own dignity, wish and soul.. it took a long time, but at least i get to overcome it..
then fatimah, who came in the same time as me but supposingly should be placed with IES itself, resigned.. while i proceed.. i tried to request to transfer back... but it was not successful.. so i made my life here.. slowly i get to like it.. made new friends but still.. did not forget my former ones.. i guessed i have gotten a bit mature since then.. because suddenly i realised.. as long as i am a good performer no matter where i am.. they will try not to lose me, as with amelia.. they rather lose her in the department rather than out from the company.. i want to be the same.. and i believe i will..
slowly, i realised that being in this department allow me to learn more than i ever expect it will.. now it have become part of my life.. i decided to stay here for maybe 2 years, or 3.. then i will transfer back to where i am supposed to be.. i realised i get to learn a lot that way.. if i have stayed in my old department.. all i learn is only corporate tax while in here.. i learn about individual, partnership and management of estate as well as a bit of advisory, perhaps i can stay longer and master all of it then i will go back.. it will do me nothing but good, i learn more and know more and perhaps.. my being in this department is somehow a blessing in disguise.. i learn more and i trust that it is somehow good for my future..
2010 starts tomorrow and i hope that it will be a better, smoother year, well, i know that after chinese new year, it is going to be a great year because the year of the tiger brings good luck to the rabbit, which is me.. hence.. happy new year all.. and i hope next year will be better than this year.. and i wish for happiness and success for all.. as well as may all dreams will come true.. and always gambate in whatever we do... =)
