[im blogging using schools computer again...]
At Bristol:
Went to Bristol's open day on the 25th of June. I like the shopping place, but for the university.... Well Bristol (for unknown reasons) was my first choice of all before I went for its open day.. but after visitting the uni... it seems to be a nice school and all, but i dont like the way the buildings are arranged.. its like.. err.. bits and pieces of puzzle scattered around? well it is in a certain area, but then.. aiya, its hard to explain.
oh yeah! and something happened in the train station...
I inserted my ticket into that machine, but the door didnt open, and my ticket was swallowed by that machine, so i went to the lady in charge and told her about it. I showed her my receipt for the tickets, and she just took the card, have a look, didnt say anything about it and just continue doing what she was doing!! she basically treated it as if i didnt go and seek for her help, and that she didnt see me at all. grrrrrrr. but thanks goodness because there were a lot of people, and the other person in charge were sort of fed up with the crowd queue-ing up to insert their ticket to leave the train station, he just opened the gate and told everyone to leave...
At Nottingham and Loughborough:
Nabilah, Erna and I left school at 1.15pm+ on Friday 26th of June for Loughborough. The reason why we went to Loughborough first when we want to visit the open day in Nottingham is because that it takes 4 + hours for us to go to Notts from Salisbury.. (and it takes about half an hour from Loughborough there) The open day begins at 9.30am, and we wouldnt want to leave school at midnight! hehe. So we stayed over in Erna's sister's house on Friday night, went to Notts on Saturday morning, then back to Loughborough, stayed over until Sunday morning...
I love University of Nottingham!!! It was simply what people called 'love at first sight'!! haha. No, that doesnt apply to me when its in term of boy-girl's love. Anyway, I love the colour, the arrangement and the overall appearance of the university. Well not the size (and price!!) of the rooms though, but the university me loveeeee~ There are lots of greens around, and the university is err.. of the colour beige. it just looks so clean and neat:) hehe. of course, the requirements for that university is also.. high-- AAA. haha. or AABB if i take four subjects.. and yes, i will be taking four (most likely) but that doesnt mean that i am just aiming for AABB. Do the best that I can-- thats the only thing i can do, i just dont want to regret ehhhhh!!
Work Shadowing:
Today is the second day since I started doing my work experience (haha sounds so long) in Smith & Williamson. I was so nervous before I go there, as I was worried that I might do something wrong, or that I dont know how to do, or that I will be reeeeeeeally quiet (which i was, sort of. haha) but thanks god it turned out alright:) I left school at 8.30am yesterday, and walked to my workplace alone (for the first time~~). Reached there at around.. 8.45am? hehe.
I was first introduced to one of the officers, Mrs/Ms Oxford in the Private Client Tax office which Mrs. Ferguson told me about, and she led me around the office. She is a really nice person:D I was told that a man from HK, Mr. Mark, will tell me what I am supposed to do when I am there.. I was still sort of panicking and being nervous at first, I kept typing the wrong letters or use caps lock when i shouldnt, when he told me what I should do.. After it slowly turned out alright..
I learned to create new account for clients on the first day, and learned how to fill in review forms, and also learned a few new terms from Mr. Mark (haha i feel so awkward addressing him as 'Mr.' when he is around koko's age. haha.) and he also told me the origin of tax... the person sitting in front of him is also a nice person, but i still dont know how to spell his name..
On the second day (today), I helped to check something, and write down the names of the person in charge of a particular client.. I feel really guilty when they asked if I would like any drink because I am less experience than them.. and it should be me who ask them what they would like to drink and not the other way round.. I guess they wouldnt mind, but then I still feel guilty la.. They are really nice people:)
Kay, I am gonna sleep early tonight... Cant wait to go back to Bruneiiiiiiii~~~ <3
