The first step of growing
Today, my instructor walked me through the criteria that I need to meet when I finish my internship, honestly, it doesn’t matter too much, for both of my two leaders don’t take it seriously, they just consider it as a procedure that they have to implement. For me, I can’t despise it, I need this to grow my skills and cultivate my experience, at least, I can see it as a motivation for me to work hard.
I don’t know what is in their mind, maybe it is me being too timid, as a account manager, the first skill you should have is talking skill, you need to have the motivation and enthusiasm to make yourself familiar with unknowns. As far as I’m concerned, I haven’t done this well so far, actually, I know what kind of person I am, kind, and passionate, I just don’t like the look on their face which only show their indifference. Smile, please, well, I can only make sure that I can talk to people with a smile on my face, despite it may look ugly.
I met a guy at gym in the evening, his opinion just impressed me hugely, regardless of the fact that he is a Malaysian, he loves China, especially the Chinese culture, he knows that his ancestors are coming from China, and Han blood is flowing in the vein of his body, all of this just made me feel pride to be a Chinese. However,he warned that the most Malaysia Chinese are not like him, they actually despite Chinese on some level, for instance, they think Chinese can’t speak English fluently, ironically, the way they speak English is really not very attractive,especially their accent, oh my god, I am going to really need some time to adapt to that before I can fully understand what they speak.
Tomorrow is a new start, just done your job well, go, Zems.
