I'm out of words when I come to describe what happened in the past three weeks in M&C.

If I had to choose one then it'll be "FANTASTIC!" (No! not that rice burger.)

In definition, FANTASTIC means

Unrestrainedly fanciful; Bizarre; Existing only in fantasy; extraordinarily good or great.

Yes, and that's exactly how I feel about my job, the office and the people I'm working with. I'll tell you about everything in a minute.

Right now, I want to thank everyone who has supported me along the way, again. But sadly, this month's dinner/lunches treats are fully booked. I"M BROKE ALREADY!~ So please patiently wait for next month unless you don't mind paying your share. Ha! 

OK. Update. It's been finally decided that I'm a "COPYWRITER". At first, my existence had made a stir in the agency. Everyone was questioning who is this newbie who can both write and design and even made two ECDs argue which side I should be in. To be honest, I wasn't flattered, I was dead scared!

I admit I have talent with words, especially English, and I definitely can't say I'm good in Chinese! So this has been quite a challenge for me as my ACD is a natural-born talent as an English copywriter, which leaves me the job of writing Chinese! God! Can you imagine me writing Chinese copy? My Chinese teachers in high school will laugh until their belly burst! But, if this is my fate, I will accept and take this challenge. I'm learning and determined to polish both my Chinese and English language to copywriter level. No, better, to a poet level. I believe practice makes perfect, so I'm writing some stuff now and I'm going to take up some freelance later.

Then what happened to art directing. Well, I'm still very interested, but after seeing what my SAD can do, I'm pretty sure I still have a long way. So in the meantime, I'll just be his little helper. Actually, what I'm trying to do here is helping the two of them as much as I can, and to humbly watch and learn their skills. And I'm very lucky that they are the very best in this field so I'm sure I can learn a great deal from them.

What I lack now is courage and confidence. This is what usually happens when you're in front of great, brilliant people. You feel tiny, useless and desperately want to show yourself and to prove to these people what you're worth. This is what I'm going through now. Sometimes, I get angry at myself at certain moments where I screwed up a good chance in showing myself. I can't recall the times I call myself  an 'Idiot!' in the past weeks. The tension and nervousness is hindering my pleasure in the whole process which in the contrary should be fun and enjoyable. Just maybe, I'm trying too hard.

But overall, I can tell you I'm extremely happy working here. This is certainly my dream job and nothing can compare to this. Where can you find a job where you:

1) Get to do something creative and can be shown to the world

2) Get to know nice and awesome people

3) Get to know or have the latest of everything

4) Learn new things every single day

5) Have nice and cool-looking bosses (seeing what you can achieve after 10 years of hard work right in front of you can be motivating)

6) 5 days work (YESSSS!!!)

7) Groovy office with a 270 degree Hong Kong skyline view (I'll post some pics up later)

8) Great benefits (And I don't mean the normal health or dental stuff!)

9) Party Fridays

10) Free unlimited food and drinks during office hours
