Overseas thoughts
8-11 August was company first overseas trip. First time, National day I wasn't in Singapore.
Overall the trip was fun but tiring haha. One thing scary about going overseas is you will get to know a person better and know their true colour. I thought I was the only one to think that way, but my boss told me the same thing too. I am glad I am the still same me.
My supervisor is till the same her and she takes care of others hahah especially me i think. However, my room mate Candy, was more aloof.
I know the designer better too, he was quite direct and can be quite funny at times, usually i thought he was a chill and cool guy showing little expression but deep down he was humorous and cares for others. For the returned trip, his seat was beside me and my supervisor asked " ehh you all want swap sits anot?" She worried we will be awkward, but he replied " don't need lah, I treat her like my own sister." I was suprised at his response,initially i was worried it will be weird but through the flight it was alright. Throughout the trip he took care of us, his care was in a cool and indirect way. Somehow through the trip, we became closer and i realised he was such a nice guy.
The rest of my colleagues are still the same :)
In the group, there were 5 girls and all 5 of us had different characters which made it hard for us to hang out together. For the guys, there are 5 of them too but with 4 different characters. Can feel that many of us are trying to be tolerant to avoid conflicts haha but there are times where there are sacastic moments.
Going shopping with girls, made me and candy felt that we aren't girls. The time they spent in a shop is close to 1 hour and the clothes and shoes they bought were more than us. They have many make ups stuff while me and candy have just our shampoo and soap haha. That's how i feel when I was in Taiwan too.
