August, let me think.. English Day, yep.. took my whole two weeks just to make sure that everything in order.. make sure that actor/s didn't forget their lines.. synchronize the slides show.. a terrible month, I could say.. I need a break after that but I didn't.. because September came...
September.. another busy month for me.. spent a week sorting out currency exchange, courier service, advance and petty cash.. so that my trip will be worthwhile.. well, it didn't go that well.. FedEx drove me crazy when they mistakenly delivered my parcel.. I received a parcel that is supposed to go to Italy.. for a week I tried (well, a guy in that office where I'm training at..) chasing them to find my equipment as soon as possible.. but they just not effective.. that make me think, we Malaysians are more hardworking and helpful than Europeans.. *sigh*.. It was sad, since we did not finish the job in time due to this confusion matter.. came back exhausted and frustrated.. I did my own way finding the equipment, until today I still think it was me that actually do all the finding and corresponding.. while the English, sitting in their office talking and doing nothing but giving sweet promises.. I contacted the Italian lady (recipient of the parcel I received) by email (yep.. email works!) and asked her to help with the problem (report and all sort of chasing FedEx over there to speed up a bit).. My initial thought that the equipment is still in Stanstead was correct, it was there all along and FedEx people didn't bother to check at all.. Oh well! When the equipment finally arrived, I was here in my office, and Cardiff weather was so bad that people over there had to wait until the next week to test it.. What a waste of time! Lucky that the equipment is intact and nothing is missing.. if not, I have to deal with the insurance.. again.. Thinking about this, my employers should pay me higher... my salary is not enough to deal with all frustrations and exhaustion that makes my heart, liver and kidney work harder.. I need more nutrient !!!!
Nutrient.. heh, came to think about that.. I think Lingzhi did a good job to me... for two weeks I've been working 9 to 5 compiling all results and discussion on the projects... the next two weeks, I was given an assignment to prepare a final report (a draft.. not more than that.. since he will definitely makes changes..) The amount of work was doubled.. and for the first time, I cannot stand the PC for more than an hour straight.. nauseated and teary eyed.. I was a bit sceptic to take Lingzhi.. the reason is more because it is expensive! Hehehe.. Later, when my problems keep coming back and I strongly feel it is due to exhaustion, I took them slowly.. 2 capsules per day.. everything seems ok and better.. and now, I started telling my friends about it..
Oh well, life goes on..
