wahahaha, upon diana's persuasion & out of my own vanity & curiosity, i just dyed my hair! got the liese bubble dye, in chiffon beige. just shampooed & conditioned my hair but waiting for it to dry so i can apply that nourishing lotion that came along in the box!
can already see traces of the brown, and i can't help but feel i resemble those orang-utans i saw in the zoo the other day- exact same orange/brown colour!! :( i feel scared to get out of the house tmr and go to work like that already!!! help!!
and my colleagues who were with me when i bought the dye (we went watsons at international plaza to walk walk during lunch!) already teased me even before this- they started calling me Chiffon Tan instead of Pavan Tan (Pavan was the name that appeared when ppl dialed my extenstion for the longest time; it belonged to a previous MALE intern!!). can't imagine what they'll say tmr!!!
that said, felt the urgency to dye my hair to signify a fresh start to a new working year. letter day was yesterday, and for those of you who do not know what it means, it simply means bonus day. everyone has to enter a room with his/her manager separately, when the latter would then hand over a piece of paper indicating the bonus for the year, as well as incremement going forward.
well, it is my FIRST ever bonus, and i guess it's sth to be celebrated! as a newbie, i totally couldn't discern if it was good or bad..but after some subtle discussions with my closer colleagues, i realised it's pretty lousy! mainly cos my bonus pool comes direct from HR cos i'm part of the graduate program...i'll only be evaluated against my own colleagues in my team this coming year, which would hopefully then recognize me with a compensation in line with my performance.
but all in all, i feel lucky to even received sth! hehe...shall give my parents a good dinner treat!
