today marks my first month of work! work and people there have been awesome, enjoying it so much! and to celebrate this day, i chipped a burette!! gotta throw the burette despite the small small chip awwww :( everyone is getting along really well <3 the testings we do are fun and almost ALL OF THEM are things i studied but never seen before. GC is fun, AAS is troublesome because most of the reagents have to be fresh :(, EDXRF is easy as fuck and many others.
although i always feel tired after work but i totally love the work im doing! im totally loving the testings we are doing BUT there are still a lot of unfamiliar methods. will be running some real samples tomorrow! luckily most of the samples will be tested for methods i have practised on before. realised that most of the testings require a lot of waiting time.. i wonder if i can go home on time tomorrow.
my friends said to me its hard to find a job that you really enjoy and love doing. yeah. for me, its really easy. all i wanted is to work in a laboratory, seriously any laboratory. in school, im always wide awake when im doing my experiments and once the lab sessions end, i will drop dead. hahahaha thats my love for lab! its the same for now too. i drop dead after work unless something good happens. one thing that im not sure about is, what will it be like if my 12 hours shift work starts? i will be doing permanent morning shift for probably the first two months and rotating shifts after. seniors told us that you will basically have no life when shift starts. work, go home sleep, work and go home sleep. this continues until your off days come. not exactly sure how will the shift work out now, the exact plan is not yet out.
i really love this job now <3
