coolerthanthouThere's this something about this particular timing in every semester with the current one being the third for me, that makes the school slightly different than usual.
(Maybe it's just me. Hurhur.)
Submissions and deadlines are starting to to strangle us all and having to do a presentation or two suddenly seems like a second nature, an everyday thing well, for us Commerce students, already.
I don't wanna jinx anything up but I guess my main worry here was not being able to have the slightest bit of confidence with my mid-sems that consists of nothing but MCQs for the two mods with mid-sems. And one that lasts ONLY 35 minutes (MAD, I'm telling ya. MAD!!! >:( ) that got everyone so frustrated at the end of it.
School has been squeezing me rather high and dry but something two weeks back have prompted me to actually schedule out two days of what's left of my week back to work. And I did.
I was glad that I did.
I definitely am no big shot when it comes to my workplace, but I know that there's always some staffs that are always appreciative of my help whenever I get to spare some time out to lend them a hand or two while I earn some spare cash. And this time round, that instinctive feel that urges me back to work has been absolutely on-point this time round.
There's so much that have gone on within the span that I was away (1++ months, I'm guessing).
I wasn't in the know, and it wasn't "safe" for me to have the 'stories' verbalized out for me while being in the store, but colleagues that I'm "closer with" and those that I would consider as friends have been trying their best to feed me with what I'm supposed to know, to not allow me to experience heart-attacks in the store, metaphorically speaking that is.
There are so much that have been going on and it really blown out of proportions on Halloween night. (So much for Halloween eh?)
People have broken down, some kept their silence, others were just too shocked. And I was just too disappointed at how things have turned out, how things have been handled the way it was.
They have successfully changed and upset the entire workplace that I used to know to one that I no longer wish to recognize. It's not that I refuse to just because it is lying in ruins now, but the fact that there are so many things that I can no longer accept even as a long time staff there.
For one very important part, I can no longer look at some of the staffs in their eyes, work along with them without feeling the fear that I might be stabbed right in my face at any moment of time. (I'm not even exaggerating here.) Not forgetting that one of them is someone that I've led into the store, not knowing that things would turn out this way when I initially thought that it would be of some help to the company with my absence as a full-time staff, for school. I don't even know how to feel about this anymore. /:
I am still very glad that I got to work on those 2 days last week, being able to work with some people that I would hold close for the last time and also to see how things unfold (not that I'm happy for the latter part la) and rear its ugly head.
I guess I'll have to put part-timing there a rest for now and gear myself fully for school until I get clearer of things in my head with regards to this. I mean, why would I risk myself to a land that's nicely put up with hell lots of landmines, waiting for me to trigger at least one of them right?
I'm just disappointed at how things have turned out to be.
I really liked that place where I used to work, well also because of the people. But c'mon, honestly, how often do you hear people actually saying things like this about their workplace right?
Sigh.
On another note, selections of modules for the coming semester have arrived early this time and all I can think of right now is the dread that I have to take an extra semester due to the unavailability of one of my core modules. MURDOCH WHY YOU DO THIS TO MEEE?! D:<
Sigh, again.
I better go have a good look at the timetable again before I panic during the selection tomorrow where everyone will attempt to close the enrolment within the first 5 seconds (NO JOKE SIA. THE EPICNESS OF ENROLMENT IS REALLY SOMETHING THAT I CAN NEVER EVER JUSTIFY IT TO ANYONE UNLESS YOU ARE IN MURDOCH.).
I refuse to sigh the third time, so, I hope everyone is doing well.
Here's two more months till the end of 2014 (I've actually gotten my 2015 planner just cus I didn't want to waste my $10 online-birthday voucher from Kikki.K. HA!! (:)
Stay warm everyone (even though there are days where it tries to burn everyone when it's supposed to be the monsoon season right now -- whoo!! Favourit-est season!! HAHA!!)!! <3
X, tillagain.
