Grand Opening

woots! im back to update.

had a very hectic week. busy preparing for my co's grand opening. n went home like 10+ for this whole week?

im so tired. n it sucks. esp when ppl thinks dat they r the only one whose doing this. n they keep complaining, grumbling, whining. theres oso some ppl who likes to find fault in whoever, he doesnt care wat the situation is, he juz enjoys pointing finger, so be it. who the F cares? oso got a hard time working wif ppl who used to be so easy-going, was ever-so-ready to teach, n suddenly they turn their backs towards u, thinking ur nth but nuisance, whao, if u have given mi the authority to make decisions on ur behalf, i would have been more efficient.

despite these negative comments above, i truely enjoyed every single bit of it when i look back.

i've spent countless months working on this project as an executive, assisting my managers in all the admin n sai gang. the terminal started off wif a flat reclaimed land @ jurong island. saw its process from soil compaction to signing agreement wif contractors, to starting work at the various parts of the plot of land, to the completion of our own jetty, to the completion of tanks, to our 1st operations in jan. im very proud to be part of this pioneer team. tis feeling is realli undescribable.

it marks a very impt milestone for this co., it is really sad when big boss din get to see his wish come true... so i try not to think abt it..

as for this ceremony:

i got to meet & work wif ppl dealing wif PR & event management (these r the most garang ppl)

i got this opportunity to show off how organised i can be in compiling the guest list from all depts in my co., theres abt 400guests in total. tis guest list includes their personal particulars, which requires us (the indv dept reps) to BEG our guests for.

i got to meet this very special lady who likes to interfere wif wat im doing, who overwrites my instructions in front of so many ppl. im very sure of wat im doing n i was firm wif my instructions, rebutted her email, n she practically ignored mi for 1 whole week. up till now i do not think i shldnt have done dat. im proud of myself to have done dat, as u noe, ppl thinks they can push mi ard easily?

on the actual day, i was stationed at the pass office coz i always liaise wif these ppl. had a hard time coz everyone seems to be calling mi. got really stressed up, n pissed off. then i got to meet this sibeikuailan bus driver who is so f-ing stubborn, who insists of mi giving him a pass to pass through the checkpoint, even after i explained to him dat i will issue him a sticker when he pass thru the bus bay coz the pass office ppl excuse us coz of opening ceremony. he screamed n scolded mi thru phone, ask mi if i see his vehicle. F him. he parked his vehicle at the carpark, with a bus of guests. omg i almost burst out laughing. but i scolded him. coz i was so fed up. how can the other bus uncles noe where to go and he duno? still have the cheek to scold mi. wat think small girl can anyhow scold de meh. he realli damn sway, i roar at him. nv say he stupid good liaoz. somemore diao-ed mi. who the F cares? his fault wad.

at the ceremony itself, i was actually touched by some of the guests who bother to check ard n wanna get in touch wif who this "christine" they r in contact wif (fyi, im christine), theres some who cant make it to the ceremony who called mi up specially to inform mi not to wait for them at jurong bird park. theres also a few who emailed mi n said it was a very nice event n thanked mi. omg the feeling is so good, and warming? hehe

well, my efforts paid off. i learned alot thru this experience. not only the event itself but oso dealing wif ppl n esp dealing wif my own emotions. oso got to noe more abt my colleagues thru this. tis is most prob the last event i can participate as a organising com, as i'll be shifting to terminal soon. i really appreciate this chance n i really did treasure it n did my very best in contributing.

im so sorry for this lengthy post. but im so proud of myself being in this organising committee, giving out my fullest to this project.. n i really find the need to blog this out. hehe

thanks all for reading!
