" We are expssing you to the legal firm bearing in mind that we are training a future lawyer"
That's what one of the bosses told me. I do not how to describe my feelings. Sitting on a chair overlooking my boss right in the eye in his office. I like his office, it has yellow lights as opposed to those typical office white lights. It also have those green lamps with gold standings you always see in US court dramas. His office is a fusion of East meets West. British styled study table while the walls are adorned with scrolls of chinese paintings. Sitting on the table was a glass of hot chinese tea brewed by him for the office. Files are stacked on the table, pink files with pink strings tied. The smell of wood and a distinct refreshing fragance filled the office. I feel comfortable, however the nerves overcomes that sense of comfort.
All of this was going through my mind when my boss intercomed me to the office. First time someone took me seriously. Seeing me eye to eye and telling me that this is it. A path that I've chose, a legal career is ahead of me. He was asking me how was work and is this what I expected? I answered in affirmative.
I wanted to learn the workings of a legal firm and they are more than willing to help me with it.
I know that question was a simple one. but the answer is not that easy for some.It evokes the thought that is this what I really want? I do not mean my career choice but my path of life. I think it is. Law is something I'm truly interested in. It gave me that feeling of attending English classes back in high school or going to Mr Siva's history tuition class in form 5. Of course there are times I dread classes but overall I like what I'm doing.
Maybe this is just an initial feeling I have because everything is new and the bosses are treating me nice. I just hope that I will learn a lot and have a pleasant 3 months ahead in this firm.
Work has been steadily increasing. I'm not complaining but embracing it. My colleagues are extremely helpful. Willing to teach and help.
I can see myself as a lawyer in the future. I can see the road I'm going. It gave me a sense of confidence that everything will be alright. Yes, it still hurts. But with a direction and a path to go, I feel safer.
Working there also motivates me. Especially seeing my lady boss. She exudes confidence, the way she talked and the way she dressed. She is really nice too. Shes my role model.
Something came into my mind while talking to bosses. Its they wear really nice work suits with cufflinks. I particularly take interest in cufflinks. It's because the woman gave cufflinks to my ex while he was with me during christmas and it's not cheap too. I always lookout for people wearing cufflinks. I think it's damn bergaya wearing cufflinks. Paired with a stylish watch..truly sums up a power suit..
That line will stick with me when I'm stuck in a jam to work. It makes everything worth it. My sleep, my afternoon naps, my pc games..all these things will be trivial comapred to the experience I'm gonna get..
Ok I swear to God, I'm not gonna do another post without doin my clubbing post first.. *cross fingers*. No time la..after work, have dinner than I have to stay away from typing, so i'll just relax and watch dramas. then at 10 something I will automatically feel sleepy and there goes my night. Tonight is different because I'm feeling good after work so I'm staying up a bit. But now my lenses feel dry.
Oh yeah crappy news of the day is that my eyesight is deteriorating. I don't mine its going down. but it used to be 275 on both eyes now one is 325 and the other is 275..So now buy contact lenses have to buy extra, geram... I'm gonna make my left eye become 325..I did it once to balance , I'm gonna do it again.
Ok, I officially finish crapping for the day..till then the clubbing post ya? hopefully..
