u.n.u.s.u.a.l. ... m.o.n.d.a.y.
today is Monday, a day before HalloWeeN!
anyone have a great celebration during weekends?
i don't~ hix.
my weekends are just packed with GMAT classes, GMAT study, and Office Overtasks.
GMAT is a real pain. I feel super dumbo.o.o.o *yeah with quatro o-s* when I tried out the Math problems, i thought how could i get an A for my AO back then huh?!?! As of today, I hardly solve simultaneous equations and square-root calculations - to name just a couple of crazee problems available in the test. Adding the data suffiency problems, I feel xhausted or maybe i would say giving up. There's no way I can master these problems in just a month! Going on further, I continued with verbal section. Reading comphrension is always and never be a great skill for me -- en to defend myself, I rather say: both the reading materials and the combination questions&answers are tricky!! dooh especially those readings with social science, archelogy, and history themes... reading it once make me headache! The torture does not end here, there is a critical reasoning section that are very-unfortunate-critical for me. it's so damn hard! when i mention "hard," it means difficult to gasp and luck is the only hope HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE To make the headache turns to migrane, the test simply switches to a sentence correction section. I find by far this is not the most red-brick-hard section... but still the combination all together makes me hoek-hoek-hoek.
I want to let it freely.... let my unprepared mind determines my score; then it turns out guilty is on the way - SO i decided to GEAR UP! allocating and also sacrificing my weekends free time to study :S The class that I took is just okay, I can't say it helps me or not but at least it gives me new tricks about the test. PLUS, one cute guy next to me wOHooooOooooo
oh oh oh.. this class seems not rite to me. First, I am the only black-hair. Second, I bet I am the youngest in the class! Third, I am one of the fours who work for a small company. During the intro, everyone introduced themselves and 90% of them said "I work for Boeing... I work for Microsoft.. I work for Paccar.. I am in a military.." hueks -- may be it's true when people say that SeattLeittes are just bunches of Boeing and Microsoft employees LOL Gawd, it just feel awkward.. the same feeling like I was in the freshman and sophomore classes where I used to be a small Asian girl with black hair among the gempal bules. the bad news is everytime i am in those classes, i flunk my grade HOPEFULLy it would be a different storie for GMAT.
i come to office today.. like de usual monday routine, peeps share the weekends.. so do I telling them about GMAT class. i found out that both of my supervisors had studied GMAT. One took it when he was still in France.. He is actually the President of the company - yeah since it's a small company so he is my second stage supervisor. His name John, same like my dad.. maybe he is a dad in the house - the one who always treats me like his own daughter HHAAHAHAHAHAHA While, Jay - my direct supervisor said that finally ended up postponing the test and he is not taking it yet up till now. They are very supportive, they know why I need to take GMAT and so they gimme advices.... John said "all you need to do is practice - Practice - and practice! get used to every question types...." then Jay said "maybe she needs some time off to study!" *an-eye-blinking* I just went instantly nodding my head! hahhahahahahha John then asked me when will I take the test and he agreed to give me some time off without cutting off my PTO :D see how he is a such daddy to me.
John, Jay, and I are currently the trios who do Morning Glory. We are glad that some of our calls have showed postive results - lots of inovoices coming in. During the meeting, we discussed on our target and we come up with a possible reward once we hit our target. A day off! To make things even merrier, we also make a deal that if we can get refunded on one of our jack-ass clients named "M*rr**tt" - clue: 5*s hotel - who always send in boxes of invoices very last minute - we'll have another day off! Jay and I are apparently the only twos Generation XY in the company, while the rest are all baby boomers - so we are the duo who cheer the most whenever there's time off and who hate so much about morning glory. Keeping the fingers crossed for de two days off! Another day off is also guranteed after the end year application dateline. I can't wait to have a great 3 days off on December! final month of this ugly beautiful year AWwwwW will it be a happy sweet nice ending to wrap up the whole year craps or will it be a sad bitter grief ending to complete the title of the worst year in bubble's life? let's the time rolls and the drums beat... i'll find the answer soon.
this is really an unusual Monday.
i am about to leave office now, and hoping to meet the bus guy. LOL.
have a great week peeps
and HappY HallOwEeN!
