New Job

I finally got a job.
Its at SPH as an Artist for MyPaper.
Its mainly doing info graphics and graphics for headlines.
Its a new experience especially at a place where your work can be seen the very next day.

Im glad im not the only new gal in the department.
There's also a writer, Dawn and a sub-editor, Joanne.
I'm really glad to have them with me.
They focus mainly on the copy and stories while i do the graphics.

The ST (straits times) office is huge. The whole SPH is huge. I have lost my way a few times. But im getting the hang of the place.
MyPaper dept sit within the ST office in a corner.
Its still a pretty young paper, so we gotta bear with it for a few months before we are shifted to a bigger area.

My art dept consists of me, Ed and Peter Williams.
Peter is formerly from ST but is now working under MyPaper as art editor.
He actually design the look and style of MyPaper. Impressive.
Ed just transfer from ST. He used to do the pagination of the paper but now does the same stuff as me.
Glad there's someone i could work with.

Now 3 of us are cramped into a 2-desk area space.
And Joanne is seated opposite me.
Cramp but cozy i guess.. lol

Its a new environment, new experience. Im actually pretty excited.
Im glad to be working.
I feel like there a goal in life. There's something i can work towards to.
Another stage in life is beginning.

Im working now, Im getting paid.
I've got debts to pay off, things to buy...
Ive gotta get some office clothes to wear to work everyday.

Im happy with the working hrs. 2-10pm from sundays to thurs.
I can sleep in late!!!!!!!!!
That's the best part!

Anyway, i hope everything goes well in this new job.
I hope i could be up to their standard.
All the best to me!
