yup, thank god it’s friday! No more work for the next 2 days. And after that is a week of work, and Chinese New Year! wheee…
Working really tires me out. The travel between Orchard Rd and Boon Lay doesn’t help either. Everytime I get back to my room, I just wanna plop down and do nothing. Which is exactly what I do, after my dinner and shower. teehee.. what a bum..
I’m glad things are going well with my internship. Started out with nothing much to do, but nowadays I’m usually busy with quite a bit of things to do. Sometimes it’s mostly quite menial n easy, like borrowing tapes, transcribing, and watching lots of TV, which is always quite enjoyable.
But I’m happy I finally got to help produce a teeny bit segment for a show this week! It’s nothing much, just a short 1-minute thing, but I’m happy with the beginnings of more interesting work.
But I’m seriously impressed with the efficiency of the division of labour there. There’re all sort sof different people to do all the different things. I mean, I don’t even have to do much editing physically on my own. I just need to decide what shots I want, and there’ll be this FCP-sifu who is super good at using Final Cut Pro (remembers all the short cuts by heart! I can’t do that yet!) who will help me do everything and make it all nice and snazzy. He takes half an hour to do what I’ll do in 3 hours. I’m convinced that by the end of this internship, my FCP skills will go down to zero.
I think I quite like it here in MTV actually. Everyone’s quite nice, and the environment is relaxed. So I guess, this is a good start to the 6-month internship!
p/s: I went over to Aussino after work to buy a new towel, and instead I got a 3-piece towel set (with embroidered flowers) for only SGD 9.90!!! AND new bedsheet set for only 8.80!! It’s yellow lemons on pale green background, to match my sunshine yellow mini-carpet. wheeee!
