Many people ask me this question, 'Why you choose your name Sidney?'. I told them because I actually watch the Alias and I am a big fan for it. I found Jennifer Garner's name 'Sydney' was quite attractive so I decided to name myself Sidney. Although I do not really like it when people said 'Oh Im Perth, Im Melbourne, Im Paris' when I first introduce myself as Sidney, but who cares what people talk bad about my name, as long as me myself love my name then I think it should be fine. I don't give a damn of what ever shit people say about me.
I actually created a blog last year and I did update it all the time. Just all of the sudden I forgot my password so I can't log in. I have to create a new blog right now. Damn pissed! Grr...
A lil description about myself...
Working life..
1. Isukoshi Health Products Sdn Bhd (China company)
When I finished my form 5 in 2005, I kept of asking myself 'Sidney, what do you want to do in future? You want to study majoring in what course? Or do you wanna work first?'. In my heart to tell you honestly, I do not even have any plan at all. At last, I worked at Isukoshi Products Sdn Bhd in 2006 situated at Ampwalk building near Ampang Park for 3 months. When I was going to enter the 4th month, my manager Mr. Mark Lee made a shocked announcement that this company was going to close down due to the decreasing of sales profit margin every year. The company will paid us 50% compensation and also our full salary and all the staffs were forced to leave. I really loved that job so much eventhough it was just answering calls, helping up Cheryl, my Admin Manager. That was where I started to speak mandarin again with them as I stopped speaking mandarin when I entered Standard 1 to a malay school. That was my first job and I will never forget that in my life.
2. Gleneagles Intan Medical Centre
My second job was at Gleneagles Intan Medical Centre. My neighbour Miss Yap works in the Laboratory. One of her good friend Ms. Kong is the manager of Clinic 717 which is a big clinic with 18 consultants in it. I went for interview and immediately I got the job. My position given was 'General Clerk'. I sat at the receptionist to answer calls, make appointment, handling cashier and to assist the doctors and patients too. After 3 months working there, I gained lots of experience and everyone took really good care of me as I was the youngest there. The reason why I stopped working at the hospital after 3 months was because I was promoted by one of my ex-collegue from Isukoshi to work at A'Famosa Sales & Marketing at Menara Safuan Dang Wangi to be Admin Assistant. My salary was higher than working at Isukoshi and Gleneagles so I quickly accepted the offer.
3. A'Famosa Sales & Marketing Sdn Bhd
So the third job began at A'Famosa Sales & Marketing. My job was very simple, I just have to help the staffs to fax the quotation to the customers and clients and to Malacca and also answering calls. Guess how much my salary in a month with only a SPM cert? Haha! (secret). I got to know the Sales Executives and Sales Manager very well. The person closest to me is Stephen Su. He is elder than me for 11 years but he look young and cute (a lil bit apek also haha!). He took good care of me, everytime asked me for lunch and explained to me a lot about the Sales and Marketing line. From there onwards, I fell in love in Marketing as im a person who is more on outdoor but not indoor. I can't just sit in the office 24/7 and work in it. I have to go out to the world socialise, meet more clients and earn money. So from that day onwards, I already know what am I going to study after I work. Out of 2 working places I worked before, this was the best company that I loved to work at. Unfortunately, I was kicked off by the company after 3 months working there. I was being betrayed by people there. People jealous of me that I can speak English well, close to the Sales Manager and Director. I am not a showing off type of person. Upon 3 months there, many Sales Executive and even Stephen Su told me many people envy of me because I have such good communication and strong socialising attitude in me. I just don't give a damn and continue working happily. Until one day I was called up by the HR Dept. My Admin Manager Selina Wong told me that I faxed an A'Famosa map to a client with the word 'fucked' on it. The client called up to the Director and complaint about how bad was our company and rude as she is a regular customer. The only person taking care of the fax machine was me. No one believe that I didn't do it. I was so sad because I knew someone made a fool and betrayed me. They want me leave the company immediately. I can't even defend myself. Even Stephen Su and lots of my senior helped to defend me to the Director, but I was not given a chance to even explained what had happened. I was asked to sign a letter and leave the company immediately. I still remember it was 3 something in the afternoon. I packed my stuff and took Putra home. I will never forget the people who betrayed me. They will feel the same thing in future by other people when they work longer. Trust me the god has it's own eyes to see who is good or bad.
My college life begin...
After working for almost a year, I decided to futher my studies. I sign up at Segi College KL because it is very near my house. I join July 2007 intake for Diploma in Marketing and it will take 2 and the half years. I am not a smart student. I didn't do well for my SPM but im ready to take the challenge.
The first semester, many of friends said I am a very 'Solo' girl. I always sit alone in class, pay full attention to what the lecturer is teaching and always the first girl to hand in my assignment. Lecturers love very much. When they have lunch with me, I still remember my friend Samuel asked me 'Eh Sidney, why you finished your assignment so fast, scared you cannot finish meh? You're so responsible and too serious for your study. Come on la..first semester only.. Don't be too serious and solo la..chill and hang out with us more' that was what Samuel asked me. In my heart I was thinking, because I know my studying level, I ain't that smart and good in written english so I have to be extra hardworking, determine and more initiative. I don't really care what they say about my ability but I do care that I shouldn't be so solo sometime so from that day onwards, I begin to mix with them a lot.
As semester passed, my own classsmates are not close to me anymore. The first reason is, 80% of them speaks mandarin. I feel like when you are in college you should speak more English to improve. They know im a 'banana' so whenever they have any outing they never ask me to join at all. Until I saw their pictures in facebook then only I know they had so much fun. So I decided to join the prom nite on December 2007 to make new friends and also join the Student Council.
My life and journey in Student Council beginning April 2008..
After the 'Casino Royale' prom night in December, I met the president 'Peggy' and asked her whether I can join Student Council. She said 'of course Sidney, we are looking for more juniors to join'. It was because my exam finished on March so I joined on April 2008. I met Meng Wai the Vice President, Arix the PR Manager, Saiful, Noreen, Shree, Shu Wei, Jess, Pui Yan, Surrin and many more. I had a good relationship with them. My first event was Orientation Day for March and May 2008 intake students. I was promoted by Peggy to be the hostess with Surrin the host for the event. I am so proud of myself as they were people look high on me. The jokes, introduction about our college and student council were fantastic as both of us made the 200 students crowd damn high! The students loved us and people were clapping none stop. I even participated in the dancing 'Follow Me' game organised my Arix and me. I remembered I was dancing like a clubbing queen with the song Whine Up by Kat Deluna. Everyone was screaming 'Fuyoh..Sidney Sexy Baby' and clapping none stop. The Orientation day was so happening and even Mr.Gary praised me that im only a junior but I managed to get the attention from people easily as he said Im a very confident person. That night I seriously can't sleep thinking how successful was the Orientation Day.
The events that I joined in the year of 2008 was, Orientation Day for different intakes, CNY Open House, Basketball competition, Futsal Competition, Garage Sales, Hitz. FM came to our college to have fun with the students and give out prizes, and lastly PROM NIGHT 'REVIVE' held at Hotel Maya opposite Zouk on 1st of November. I acted in a drama and was given the role 'Cruella'. Cruella is a very hot and bitchy student in class and best friend of 'Isabella' (Kelly). Isabella had a crush on 'Leslie' (Saiful) but she didn't know that Cruella (me) had a crush on Leslie too. The conflicts, jealousy and competition of who is gonna win Leslie began. I loved acting in that drama. I was damn bitchy and hot when I was on stage haha!! My 2nd performance was singing Sway from PussyCatDolls individually and 3rd performance was singing Bubbly from Colbie Calliat duet with Olivia with the acoustic guitars. I will never forget that moment. I miss the prom night!!!
The above are a lil journey of my life after I finished SPM. I will update more about my personality and my goals for my future. Ciaoz people!
