Wow,
it's been three years to the day since I started work... Looking around my cubicle, nothing much seems to have changed except maybe it's a little bit messier. No matter how often I clear it up, it just seems to get messy by the next day.
Work-wise, I think I could have worked much harder than I have been doing (and those of you that see me on ICQ or MSN everyday can stop sniggering). Previously I had slacked off 'cos I always thought I'd go back to grad school after finishing my CFA, since work didn't seem very interesting.
But now that I've been given more responsibility, the work has become more interesting. Ironically, it was only because I started working harder that I was given more responsibility. It's really a chicken-and-egg situation because I've been pushing for more responsibility but the powers that be had always said that I needed to show that I can handle the pressure. Which was boring because frankly speaking the companies in Singapore aren't very interesting to invest in.
Anyway, I just thought it would be nice to commemorate my 3-year anniversary. Hopefully next year will be a much better one :)
