The first week of the new year was really a hell of a week. Well, it was my first week working at ocbc. On the very first day of work, i was like terrified. Raffles Place can be really imtimidating especially when it's the first working day of the year. The place was really swarming with people. Anyway, work wasn't that bad. Met new people, which was really a good thing for me. We did soe manual labour for the first two days and the rest of the days was mainly dedicated for training. It was really difficult to grasp all the techinical terms. Like overdraft, FX, collateral etc. I was like huh???!!! when i first saw those words. Took me some time to get used to the terms. And of course, with the help of my mom. HAHAHA. Anyway, i am under the FI (financial institute) team. Not very sure what that means anyway, but basically, i would have loads of work to do, according to my trainer. We have our own tables too, which i think is a really cool thing. My mom told me to make it as comfy as possible. I guess i would be stocking the place up with food. Hah! My colleague was telling me to call it little verine's supermarker or something. Lol.

And i must say, the bubble tea from Koi Cafe is REALLY good. Though it may be more expensive than the usual bubble tea, and a smaller serving too, i say it's a must-try. The taste is really different. It's really easy to differentiate between the usualy kind from Sweet Talk and from Koi Cafe. It's of a much better quality. And the pearls do not stick to each other. Yup. That's what i heard.

Friday is Stationery Day. So it's like the staff will queue up to collect stationery from someone who would be giving it out. Pencils, pen, files, stapler, staple bullets etc. It's like bringing Popular to us instead of us going to Popular. Oh, and the plus point, it's free. Which means that we can take as many stationery as we want and just dump it on our desk. Yup. Pretty neat huh. I think so too :D
