HALOHA!!!
Pleased...i am pleased with maself for enjoying time at work for the past few days.. and going to tanning session on Saturdae totally ROCKS!!! it's been a long time since i felt the sun on my skin.. woo-hoo!!! gerek pe..work and responsibilities are going on heavy for me.. being a COFFEE MASTER in store is crazee yet rewarding and fruitful.. helpin out the managers in a way or another.. and keep checking the-never-ending coffee passports.. mak ai.. but it's funnie when you see funnie werds in the coffee passports.. ma gawd.. inside jokes.. - oaky flavour.. hahaha!!!and i am lucky to have Asad and understanding family and frens around me.. ader jugak orang yang faham.. to those who are not exposed to working life yet, be grateful and don't compare.. kalau nak compare pon tgk korang nye position and my position. thanx Huda and Lina for giving me a surprise visit on the 4th Feb biler aku tgh keje and waited for me til i finish work..!! sayang korang!!!i watched PS i LOVE YOU Midnite movie with Starbux peeps on Saturdae after tanning session.. aduhaii... sayu benar crite tu.. sad like fuck that i haven been handling it well.. crying b4 i went to bed.. hmmm... i guess i knoe how to divide my time la kan.. reached home at 5 am in the morning and den sleep a while and head back to work.. and yeah. i am not complaining cos i love what i am doing.. coffee is my passion.
anyone has got a problem with that? please step forward.i asked my manager for anytime shifts thus, my schedule aint that flexible la kan.. as they know i am having ma hols and that i work to SUPPORT MYSELF.. this wednesday i'll be having a mini gig at ITE Clementi again during lunchtime. it's ok k Huda and Lina.. pasal korang keje.. and a lil last minute also.. see.. i do knoe in a way how to divide my time. maybe it's more than just what you see on the surface. i have been busy with work that i did not have time to check my mails.. and i just read an email from Ain.. about training every monday.. alamak.. i cant commit to the every monday thingy ah.. asal monday ehk? tapi takpe.. takkan aku nak pentengkan diri sendirik kan. u girls just go ahead and have training.. and just now i was blog hopping.. and yeah.. read Endang's blogg.. aduhai.. asal nik sumer nik? aku terase la kan pasal asek keje je kan.. tapi understand understood la kay.. and like what Huda said, TAK LUPEKAN endang pe.. kalo aku betol2 lupekan korang, aku pon tak heran ehk ngan nak pi fotoshoot and turning up late for my IMPORTANT STORE MEETING that i HAVE TO attend every month as we NEED TO communicate with everyone about new nice promotional drinks that we are selling to our consumers.. and sometimes i have to have more than one meeting every month as there'll be at times meeting for LEARNING COACHES or meeting with COFFEE MASTERS.. or just helping out with RESPONSIBILITIES at werk.. yeah i knoe that from the outside, Starbux looks easy.. but that's where you guys are wrong.. we are not just about coming to shifts, clock in, serve, go for break and den clock out and go home. NO. these apply to only those who are not really dedicated to the job. it's more than just that.. it's about CONNECTING, DISCOVERING and RESPONDING to the needs of our customers and partners(that's what we call colleagues at Starbucks).. it's what you cant just see on the surface. trust me. some of us HAVE TO extend our shifts to cover up for people who are on MCs, who are sick, who last minute something bad just happen to them(God Forbids).. but little did we complain as we like what we are doing. so i do hope u guys understand. i don't expect you to, but jusy making my stand clear. and DO NOT EVEN TRY TO DPDP ME!!!
and on my part as a coffee master in store, to my SB-SN peeps reading this.. the plan that i have for the store is that we might be having a presentation either late of this month or early next month. it all depends with my schedule and my other full timers and other EXISTING coffee master. early next month i have loads of helping out to do in school and other what so and what nots.. whatever it is, i have to get back to my schedule and organiser planner.. busy3.. but yet, it won't bring me down.
i only have time to work this hols. like i say before, hols is our time to make and save as much money as possible. Endangs, sorry i cant join you guys.. i have to set my priorities right.. and NO IT'S NOT ABOUT PLEASING MA BF or what-so-ever. dier pon keje and skola. maseng2 busy. jumpe pon kalo ader time lepas keje or during break.. it's more on my career path.. and responsibilities as an OLDER SISTER, as a COFFEE MASTER, as a LEARNING COACH, as a FRIEND to just be there for my true friends who needs someone to just be there... and insya-Allah, more roles and responsibilities to come.. i take whatever that i can and if i think i cant handle it, i won't take the responsibilities..
IT'S ALL ABOUT KNOWING YOURSELF WELL.. u knoe yaself well, you can make things happen. and i've talked to my close friends about my future plan. but have yet to implement it. Izzie(Izyan), thanx for hearing me out after the photoshoot when we were on the way to our seperate designated place..
“It is easy to dodge our responsibilities, but we cannot dodge the consequences of dodging our responsibilities”
George Bernard Shaw People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I dont believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they cant find them, make them.
John Burroughs A man can get discouraged many times but he is not a failure until he begins to blame somebody else and stops trying.Dr. Robert Anthony When you blame others, you give up your power to change.Arthur Ashe: Quotes on Responsibility
I have always tried to be true to myself, to pick those battles I felt were important. My ultimate responsibility is to myself. I could never be anything else.
