It's official. This will be my last week at WS as i have been offered the position of marketing executive/pr at Garibaldi group. Its amazing really how smooth the path to it was. I feel it was literally a "god send". From the time I sent in my resume on a whim (there was no job opening then), to the two interviews that went so smoothly. I wasn't prepared for the interview. I felt like I knew nothing at all, and it was the end of a particularly challenging week, and I was feeling weary and tired. Yet my new boss liked me, and wanted me to start as soon as possible.

I am very excited about the new job. There are many things to be learnt and to do, so differeny from anything I have never done. Things will be totally different from what I am used to know, thats why I am feeling a little apprehensive also. But I believe that with the right attitude, I can definitely conquer my fears. Plus Roberto is a good boss. In my two meetings with him, I like him already, for his humbleness, his good humour and his willingness to teach.

Now that it is my last week at WS, I feel a tinge of sadness to be leaving. Everyone was happy for me that I am moving on. After all, I can't be an intern forever right. And if they are not going to offer me a job, someone else will. But I am glad to be leaving with the last batch of interns, life would be so different without them indeed.

Looking back, I think it has been a great three months. Three months of learning many new things, being exposed to new people, facing challenges, overcoming challenges, stress, and finding my own quiet confidence in the things I do. I am glad for this opportuinity to work in a PR company. And nowadays, I don't even count down the hours to lunch time, or to end of work, because time just flies past so fast because of the sheer amount of work I have to do. They are trying to get the most out of me before I leave..hah.

Sometimes I swear that the interns at WS are the only things that keep me going at work. I look forward to deciding where to go for lunch, waiting for people to arrive, and the random emails that we somethings send out when we have nothing better to do at work, emails that can suddenly brighten up your mundane day and leave you smiling at your comp or laughing out loud. Or when we pass by corridors or meet in the pantry and gossip or complain about each other's day at work.

Vic, Jayne, Fang Ting, Shao Ru and Nat have been really special people. Good things don't last that long. Vic was the first to leave, and for the few days after she left, I really missed her. Her blurness and chirpyness somehow grew on me. And she was from my team, so we could bitch to each other about people. Not anymore. Jayne and Shao Ru would be leaving this Fri, followed by Nat and Fang Ting next Fri. And things would never be the same again. The new interns who came in somehow didn't fit into our clique, the bond that had formed within the last 2 months or so. Maybe, just maybe, I would be leaving too. Since I don't envision staying for long anyway.

But I guess the time here has taught me many things, and at least next time I can say I have had the experience of work at the top PR firm in Singapore before, but it's no big deal really. One thing I have to say is they really know how to take care of the welfare of our stomachs - all the good food at staff meetings, team lunches etcetera. But who knows what life might bring next...

It has been a very tough week so far. I am trying hard to be strong and independent, but it isn't easy at all. I just feel so emotional and unappreciated.

I can't wait for the weekends to come, where at least there is one less stress, and I can just rest my tired brain and weary soul...

I really can't anymore
