Today is my 3rd day at work. It was a huge project, and I am lucky to be involved in this process. Although I was not entirely involved, I had participated in the prepartory and execution phrase of the new system.

It was a smoothing day and I had travelled and explored to many of the more confidential part of the system supporting the stability and efficiency of Singapore. All was well till I was shown to a small room full of security cameras. I shall not reveal much here but onto the staff working on the desk are of PhD certification (well, at least 2 of them are). I was like OMG as they appeared to be someone of middle working class.

Anyway, all went well till the very last where we are to tackle on RBD terminals. There are a single verification phrase that cannot be done since it requires approval from the top to issue the certification key, but that "top" is absent from his office, his computer (if only he is also top in using VPN). In the end, the entire lot of us waited (wasted more rather) for nearly 2 hours for the approval and the verification code - since the system is to go online by tomorrow (the server will be up then).

Since it been a long time since I had proper social exposure, I feel I had difficulty in expressing myself and there are lots of body language. Anyway, I feel I need to develop a habit to properly conduct myself in front of others. Yes thats right.

Somehow this temp helpdesk had been a great experience, and in the process, also trigger my inspiration for my current uni project work.

In this world,
To do all and do it well can only be done as God,
As human, to do what one is good at is the way to excel.

Mum, please bless me with the will to carry on; I seem to know what I am good with and is now trying to prove that to myself and others what I am good at.
