Random

Finally, I've got the time and sit down to update my long abandoned blog. I'm going to have a long weekend because it will be ANZAC day on Monday and I have my leave on Tuesday.

I just want to say a thing about my work life. WORKING IS SOOOOOO TIRING!!!! I basically work non stop from 8.30am to 12.45pm and then half an hour lunch break, after that work until 5pm. I am soooo happy that I finally have my 4 days break, free from any work!

In this 6 weeks of work, I have learnt heaps on how to prepare accounts and financial statements, individual, company and trust tax return, business activity statements, fringe benefit tax, share register, filing, business communication and other admin stuffs, such as making phone calls, email, photocopies and printings.

I am so lucky to work closely with my senior accountant. She is very patient in teaching me, and she explained them in very details! She is the most awesome senior I ever had,I feel so lucky!

I love my job so much!

Now you know where I spent my money to :P

I just can't understand the ways of all the men and their mistakes
You give them all your heart and then they rip it all away.

You told me how much you loved me and how our love was meant to be
And I believed in you I thought that you would set me free.

You should've just told me the truth that I wasn't the girl for you
Still, I didn't have a clue, so my heart depended on you.

Although I'll say I hate you now, though I'll shout and curse you out,
I'll always have love for you because I am a girl.

Been told a man will leave you cold, get sick of you and bored,
I know that it's no lie, I gave my all, still I just cry.

Never again will I be fooled, to give my all when nothing's true,
I won't be played again, but I will fall in love.

I want you so, now you leave me in cold.
How could this be? I thought that you really loved me.

Into the night, I will pray that you're alright.
You hurt me so, I just can't let you go.

You took advantage of my willingness to do anything for love, to do anything for love.
Now I'm the only one in pain.
Will you please take it all away?

Never thought born being a girl, I can love you and be burned.
Now I will build a wall, to never get torn again.

Stepping into corporate world

I can't stop thanking God for giving me such a good accounting job. My first week was absolutely exciting. I am responsible in tax preparation for clients for the time being which I really enjoy it very much! It is heaps better than doing audit!!! I am very very grateful to be employed by this CPA firm. The partners, manager, accountants and admin staffs are very friendly and helpful! I love being part of the team members there and I have learnt a lot.

Thanks God for the blessings!

Career year

I need to appoint a mentor for my CPA 3 years practical experience requirement and complete a further 2 CPA units in order to advance to full CPA status. The best mentor that I can appoint is one of the partners in my company because they are full CPA members. For the PER, I have to maintain a logbook to show my technical, personal effectiveness, business and leadership skills.

Sub-areas for the technical skills would be

• auditing
• financial accounting
• financial planning
• financial risk management
• insolvency
• management accounting
• taxation

In my role, I will be mainly involved in financial planning, financial risk management, management accounting and taxation.

For the 2 remaining CPA units, I am going to enrol Business Strategy & Leadership and Contemporary Business Issues.

I am gonna be a career-minded person once I start on my work. Hence, I am so gonna focus on my career first and my goal is to obtain CPA full membership in 3years time. Good good good!

Career-ambitious woman rocks! =D =D

Lifeeee...

I have an aussie colleague and I reckon he is kinda cute. We often took the same train to the city after work and had a long nice chat all the way back. He is very different from the other locals that I've known so far. He is shy yet friendly and has a sense of humour. He is serious in his work and takes full responsibility on the tasks assigned to him.

This is the first time I feel clicked to a caucasian guy. But sigh, I'm going to leave my current job soon and would not be able to work with him as a team again.

So yeah, people often go in and out of my life. Most of my friends have gone back to their homecountry for good and some chose to work in Perth.

I wonder how to retain my bunch of friends and never have to say goodbye to them =(

Checklist

Visa application - ticked
Employment agreement - ticked
Tax form - ticked
Health insurance - ticked
Bill payments - ticked

Good good good..looking good for now. Thanks God!

Need to do house cleaning tomorrow and thursday. Sis will reach melb on Friday =)

Look forward to commence my work as an accountant =)

Happy!

Verse of the day~

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." (Matthew 11:28-29)

Praise the Lord for He is good!

Tada....

I am so happy when I received my package of employment agreement just now. But there are 3 months probationary period applied to me, which essentially means that they have the right to terminate my employment after the 3 months period if I am not able to work in according to their standards.

I have to work from Monday to Friday, from 8.30am to 5.00pm with only 30mins lunch break except Friday, an hour break. Sigh... I guess I will be super tired by the time I'm back from work.

I should not be complaining now and be grateful that I am able to work full-time as a graduate accountant.

I need to WORK HARD!

God, please guide me through and bless me in work =)

Lalalala...

Feel sssooooooooooo good to wake up in the morning without having to stress about things.. I couldn't remember the last time I don't have to worry about things undone.

Have a great day ahead!

God is good =)

F.I.N.A.L.L.Y!

THANKS GOD FOR GRANTING ME THE JOB!

THANKS GOD

THANKS GOD

THANKS GOD!


Going to start work next month. I am so excited about it! I am so grateful =)

SIEN SIEN SIEN!! Phoned the company this morning and the manager was not in the office. Why can't they tell me if I can be offered the job? Even if I have been unsuccessful, please inform me so that at least I know! Sigh...

Damn it..i dunno what i want in my life..life sucks right now.. things aren't always right to me..everything seems to be so wrong!. no celebrations/festivals what-so-ever for me ... what's the meaning of living in this world! nothing!

Again

I am here waiting for the results again =( The manager said she will phone me this morning but I haven't received any call yet =( It's 11 am now and another hour till noon!

Finger-crossed. Hope I could get the job!

After years of hardworks and tears....

P.A.T.I.E.N.C.E

I guess God is testing my patience. I have to wait till Monday again to know whether I'll be offered the job.

I hope everything will turn out well on Monday. God bless me!

I am waiting for the call! I really hope I will be offered the job =( Please please please...

No CNY for me this year =(

Tomorrow will be the day! YES or NO .. God bless me richly!

Dear God, please help me!

I have a good feeling that everything will turn out well.

Make me happy yeah!

Bless bless bless

God, please bless me and guide me through the interview and secure my dream career. I leave all my burden to you, oh Lord.

Happy

Thanks God! He grants me another round of interview on Monday. I am so grateful! He blessed me richly!!

Interviewed

I had my interview this morning. Everything went well, and now it is up to them to decide whether I will fit into their team.

They will call me up by the end of this week on whether I am successful in obtaining the graduate position. Finger-crossed. Have faith in God. He is working on me!

The 5 Questions Employers Dying to Know

1. "Why are you here?" They mean by this, "Why are you knocking on my door, rather than someone else's door.

2. "What you can do for us?" They mean by this, "If I were to hire you, would you be part of the problems I already have, or would be a part of the solution to those problems? What are your skills, and how much do you know about the subject or field that we are in?"

3. "What kind of person are you?" They mean by this, "Will you fit in? Do you have the kind of personality that makes it easy for people to work with you, and do you share the values that we have at this place?

4. "What distinguishes you from nineteen or nine hundred other people who are applying for this job?' They mean by this, "Do you have better work habits than the others, do you show up earlier, stay later, work more thoroughly, work faster, maintain higher standards, go the extra mile, or.....what?

5. "Can I afford you"? They mean by this, "If we decide we want you here, how much will it take to get you, and are we willing and able to pay that amount - governed, as we are, by our budget, and by our ability to ay you as much as the person who would be next above you, on the organisational chart?"

Interview tips

During the Interview, Determine to Observe the 50-50 Rule.

In Answering the Employer's Questions, Observe the Twenty-Second to Two-Minute Rule.

Determine to Be Seen as a Part of the Solution, Not as a Part of the Problem.

Beware of the skills the employers are looking for, these days, regardless of the position are seeking.

They are looking for employees:

• who are punctual
• arriving at work on time or early
• who stay until quitting time, or even leave late,
• who are dependable
• who have a good attitude
• who have drive, energy and enthusiasm
• who want more than paycheck
• who are self-disciplined
• well-organised
• highly motivated
• good at managing their time
• who can handle people well
• who can use language effectively
• who can work on a computer
  
• who are committed to teamwork
• who are flexible, and can respond to novel situations, or adapt when circumstances at work change
• who are trainable, and love to learn
• who are project-oriented and goal oriented
• who have creativity and good at problem solving
• who have integrity
• who are loyal to the organisation
• who are able to identify opportunities, markets and coming trends.

Above all, they want to hire people who can bring in more money than they are paid.

So, plan on claiming all of these that you legitimately can, doing the hiring-interview, with evidence (short stories).

I need confidence

It is God who grants me the chance to attend the interview. Without His guidance, I doubted if I could even get to the interview stage because it is very competitive here in Melbourne to secure a full-time graduate position because I'm not a local. The competition is even higher for me. I hope God will give me peace and confidence so that I could perform my best during the interview on Monday.

"I prayed to the LORD, and he answered me, freeing me from all my fears (Psalm 34:4) "The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?"

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight" (Proverbs 3:5-6)

I still couldn't believe I am actually going to attend an interview! Now, I need to prepare myself to make sure I secure the job! My dream job!

FInallyyyyyyy!!!!

OMFG!!!! I'm going for an interview with a CPA firm next monday!!!!!!!!!!!! WISH ME LUCKK!!!! SO HAPPYYYYYYYY=D=D

I believe

There is always sunshine after the rain ^^

CASCADA - Everytime We Touch

I still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams.(my dreams)
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive.

'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch, I feel this static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat slow...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry. (I cry)
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.

'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch, I feel this static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat slow...
I can't let you go.
Want you in my life.

'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.

Damn it! I am so super stressed now. I don't know what to do.. I don't know how to do it! I have nowhere to shout!

Current addiction - song

Evanescence - Bring me to life!


How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything

Without thought, without voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

am so not looking forward to work tomorrow =(

Me me me

I think I've lost some more weight. I weighed myself today and it gone down to 50.5kg. happy!

Compare this photo which I took in Oct 2008




and ........

this, which is taken 2 days ago....




I look younger when I'm thinner.. I want to lose 2 more kgs and I'll happy to keep the weight =)

hmm..mixed feelings..i'm emo

I am lost............................can someone help??????????

Decision !

Should I go for the accounting internship in an international company?

觉得活在世上没什么意义。。。

Unbearable

Haven't got a job yet.. can't even get into interview stage.. life's fuck. can die already.

And I don't know what to eat for every meal every day. No need to eat... waiting to die...

I am so UNHAPPY!

Could you grant me a day of worry-free?

God grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

A surprise

I finally got an interview!!!


With a global marketing research company. YES...A HUGE GLOBAL MARKETING RESEARCH COMPANY invites me for an interview.

This is totally unrelated to my accounting degree. I'm so shocked when I received this invitation. They invited me to join the company as a Research Executive.

A research executive do the following things

• Responsible to manage projects from drafting proposals to the delivery of presentations
• Responsible for operational control of research projects from initiation through to implementation, analysis of results and reporting
• Perform, analyze and interpret quantitative and qualitative statistical analyses
• Desk research including tracking marketing and sales trends, analyzing collected data, gathering data on competitors and analyzing their prices, sales, and method of marketing and distribution
• Prepare reports of findings, illustrating data graphically and translating complex findings into written text.
• Client servicing involving understanding of client’s business needs and findings solutions to their needs through application of research methods and techniques

None of these related to my accounting background. Totally a new scope of job responsibilities. Marketing, the least possible option among the commercial area for me.

Now, decisions, should I go for the interview which will be held next week? It is based in KL, you see. And I have so little time to get ready, book ticket, accommodation and stuffs like that to go KL. And also, what if I really got accepted into the company? I have to freaking leave Melbourne for good! I'm actually not willing to do so =( I love Melbourne!

Then again, if I reject the interview, it means that I allow the chance to slip away just like that from me and maybe I'm not that lucky anymore in the future. To get invited for an interview by a global company that is.

Sigh..... HOW?

Sigh

I have submitted a total of 35 job applications today. I'm so drained. I really need a job now!!!!! God please help me to get into at least 1 interview......... !!!!

So stressed!

IMMA IN DEPRESSION MODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before and after

Before and after camwhore pictures of me.

With spectacles





With coloured lens




OMG, I can't believe only a pair of coloured lens able to make a huge difference to my eyes.

I felt like I have rediscover my eyes. =D
