Hey all! Whew! I've survived my first week (read: five days) at work, and it's been a pretty exhausting but exhilarating time! Settling in quite nicely at work, despite computer problems (gah), and I've also settled quite nicely at my place here in Punggol, although I'm wondering how long I'll be able to stay here considering that it's pretty far from my workplace (I knew that before signing on for this place, but "in theory" versus "in practice" are two different things), and also because there's construction going on next door which is forcing me to sleep with ear plugs. So I guess we shall see, but I won't leap too quickly to a decision. Yay!
I forgot to mention that last Sunday I joined Jo and her cool colleagues for dinner at Fat Boy's (burgers! Mmmm!) followed by a movie, War Horse, which I enjoyed thoroughly (or should that be thoroughbredly? Hahahah!), far more than I'd expected to. I guess I was too focused on the first day of work when I blogged previously, heheh. But now I've reached the "end of first week" point, and I'm averaging three pages of editing and layout a day – which apparently is pretty good, so I've been told; most newbies start off with one page a day for the first couple of weeks. And I've also pretty much gotten into the routine of travel and have figured out the train and bus routes to work, so all in all it's falling into place, pretty much.
Random story: today at work, I walked into a waste basket twice, causing it to tumble over with a loud hollow clatter, making everyone stop and gawp at me. I think I shall make myself known as the office clown. Yes, I shall. You mark my words. Okay, end of story.
I'll come back later to blog further about what else I've been up to, including my other new toy, not the Tyros 4, which I've barely touched in a week! Too busy, too knackered, too many things to sort out before I settle into the routine of music work. All in good time, I guess. All righty then -- till later... have a good weekend!
