At Café Iguana last night with Becki and Jeremy, I remember going, ‘I feel like talking about work, but then again I’ve told you two everything before’.
So yes, my online audience.
Who: Eileen.
What: Is understudying a copywriter.
When: From now till end Febuary.
Where: At an advertising firm. [I’m not disclosing for confidentiality reasons; things there are coolly top secret; we’ve to have our thumbprint’s scanned before allowed access to the work area.]
Why: [This bit is going to be insanely long. I’d try to limit the gushing.]
1] I did two army adverts!! Okay, army propaganda letters, one with the JC boys from our batch will be receiving, and the other for the secondary school boys which is unconfirmed. Having a part to play in the production of an army advertisement’s one of my dream jobs.
2] VivoCity’s new shopping directory write-up’s also done by me.
3] So’s part of the write up for Tourism Thailand.
4] And a pitch.
5] As well as the branding for a new product.
6] The men there are tremendously cute. Not in the Dippy manner, but in the oh my tellytubbies manner.
7] And the women really sweet; there’s a Betty who reminds me of Archie’s Betty.
8] Prawn mee near the workplace is sooo good. And it’s only $2 for a really decent serving.
9] Relatively slack dressing.
10] Orgasmic collection of design / photography / picture books. They even have a pop-up version of Alice in Wonderland. I’m dying to start with the borrowing.
11] Cool location. It’s around an industrial area so there’s forklifts and wooden crates and whatnots around, and it’s a little construction site-ish.
Granted, the pay isn’t anywhere near good – I’m only getting about $1 per hour from 9am to 6pm, and I work for free after 6pm. But hell, I’m pretty much having the time of my life here, even if my writings do get rejected occasionally.
It’s Hello Nineteen in four days time, and I feel old. My last year as a teen. And I’ve figured I’m the worst kind of drunk you’d ever want to know; I’m your little nightmare, the type who’s giggly and excited and basically a hugeass bimbo.
Oh, and I passed my basic theory for driving!
