My workplace at a glance
Outgoing: Special thanks to the ever brilliant Gokul and perpetually laughing Lijuan around for filling my first 3 weeks with so much laughter. Thanks Mr. Eugene for stripping my name, and affectionally labeling me as the all-encompassing 'Intern'. And of course, thanks to Dexter who great-heartedly imparted me with all the deceiving and somewhat despicable tactics to get the innocent young girls. Really, the memories of us mocking each other would be inked indelibly in my mind.
Gokul, Mr. Brilliant aka Joker
Dester - 変態な男です。Gals, be careful of him.
Lijuan aka 大笑姑婆
I have spent the most time in Incoming during the period of my internship, and it was there that I met many beautiful people who have embraced and treated me like one of their kind. Thanks Emilia, for the 3 weeks when you nanny-sit me and selflessly taught me all about Incoming; your never-waning patience and meek nature really touched me. Lester, one of the most diligent and responsible person I have ever met, also gave me unique insights into the banking industry and government sectors, and guided me whenever I tumbled onto problems. And the rest of the Incoming team, who have sung KTV with me and treated me to a fabulous Japanese meal! Arigatou!
Emilia. Meek and patient - I was her apprentice for 3 weeks:)
Duncan, my Incoming Boss
And the settlement team, which I did not have the fortune to work with, is also filled with a bunch of great people. Chiaming for giving me tips on facial products and Angnes for sharing me with her knowledge on electronic gadgets.
Angnes, super funnie gal who knows damn a lot about camera, hp and all the electronic gadgets. And the lady on the right is Claire, boss for the Settlement team.
Chiaming, who likes to quarrel with pple, but is in fact an extremely helpful guy. And Yanlin, the gal who likes to quarrel with Chiaming (actually not just her lah, most pple quarrel with Chiaming)
And there are so many other people in DSG whom I would like to thank, but I'm just simply too sleepy and tired to carry on. So please do not feel offended if I didn't mention your name. I'm sure you have helped me in some ways or another, and I am, or at least was, very grateful for your assistance.
And how can I forget about other interns who have survived the 9 weeks of internship with me. I will post the photos of my project mates later. These are wonderful SMU pple whom I have worked with for the past week to churn out another award-winning presentation!
Really, thank you so much! I couldn't believe how fast time has passed, and almost in a blink of a second, I have ended my virgin internship. I'm sure it will be another blink of a second before I find myself on Thai Airways, embarking on my 5 months trip to Japan.
And just when I was going to bid my last goodbye to all these great pple in DSG, I suddenly realized I was surrounded by all of them. I was really touched when Diana handed me the departure gift. I almost couldn't believe my eyes. Angnes got me a travel adapter, which I have been telling them I would be buying this but couldn't fork out the time to do so. And then when Diana asked me to open another gift, it was 5 1000 Japanese yen packed in a Credit Suisse hongbao! My first Hongbao of the year! I was so touched that finally I did not bear to leave Credit Suisse. Really, Credit Suisse is such a nice place, with so many nice pple, and a nice work culture.
Goodbye card filled with everyone's blessings and good wishes.
My dream adaptor. Thanks Angnes for being so thoughtful. This will be so useful when I go over to Japan!
My first Hongbao of the year! With the exclusive Credit Suisse Hongbao packet:)
I feel so blessed now. This is what life should be all about. Simply amazing.
