well well well... long time not to update this blog... Image hosted by Photobucket.com

today is the third day i work at a company called Metso Automation BV. at the moment, i'm doing my internship program there for 11 months. i work for an accounting position there, and i "kind of" have 2 supervisors: ronald and erik. and maybe, starting from tomorrow, i'll also have gema as my supervisor.


working in a real company is so cool. Image hosted by Photobucket.com hehe. at least, it's cool for me. for example, starting from next week, i'll have my own official address, which is silvia.laurensia@metsoautomation.com. Image hosted by Photobucket.com i also have my own " door keycard", to open the door when i come in to the company. and then, i get my own desk, my own computer Image hosted by Photobucket.com, my own cupboard, etc etc etc. so cool. i feel like a pro now. hehe.


the people there are also so nice. ronald and erik like to make jokes on each other Image hosted by Photobucket.com, and also on me. hehe. they also like to take a walk in the afternoon, for about 10-15 minutes, and sometimes i join them. there are a lot of smiles Image hosted by Photobucket.com and laughes Image hosted by Photobucket.com at the office.


about the job itself, i find it quite complicated. Image hosted by Photobucket.com what i do now is so different comparing to what i've learnt at school. and there are a lot of things i still have to learn. what i like about this company is that they really teach me from the scratch, from operating the copying machine, using the fax, operating the frankeer machine (to make a stamp when we want to send a document or a package), inputting the invoices into the system, making bookings, etc etc etc.


i work from 9 to 5, officially. in fact, i often get home at 4:30. Image hosted by Photobucket.com hehe. and i have to work everyday, from monday to friday. so, in order not to get late to come to the office, i have to wake up at 6. Image hosted by Photobucket.com and then i take a shower Image hosted by Photobucket.com, have a breakfastImage hosted by Photobucket.com, etc etc etc, and i have to leave home and go to the station at 7:50. the train comes at 8:06, and it takes for about 30 minutes to arrive at the amersfoort station. then, when i arrive at the amersfoort station, i have to catch the bus, which is at 8:40. my gosh, i always have to run to catch this bus!! Image hosted by Photobucket.com i'll arrive at the office at 9, exactly. then, i get home at 4:30, and i'll arrive at home at around 6. and i have to sleep Image hosted by Photobucket.com at 11, in order not to wake up late for the tomorrow morning. my gosh, i cant imagine how boring it will be after a few months.

but yeah, so far so good. hehe. Image hosted by Photobucket.com


like what ronald said to me this morning: i have to enjoy what i do. i have to be comfortable at the office, since i'll be at the office everyday, from 9 to 5. i'll spend more time at the office, rather than at home.


let's see what'll happen.
