Brickfields

It all started there... 15 years ago. I met this tall geeky guy at Parkroyal for an interview. He showed me a few brochures and asked me.. do you know how to do this. I said yes. Next question he asked me was... do you want to leave your company and worked for me? Then i said... urmm.. no.. *LOL* He must be wondering why i am going for the interview if i do not want the job. Then i told him, maybe someday i will work for you. But not today.

Fate always play tricks on me. A old friend called and ask me to join him to work for a new ad agency they are setting up. I went.. COOL! When can i start? And don't you want to interview me? He said.. no need to interview you la. You are my friend. I asked him.. who's the boss? He said... Surpriseeeeeeeeee. I was scratching my head. He said he has interviewed you before... so he does not need to see you again. And so fate brought us back together... and i finally signed up to work for geeky man.

Working at the ad agency was like signing up for cancer. AE's were smoking above our heads while talking among themselves. We were in this small office which was literally a smoking pit. Another girl and i were at the computers choking every single working day till the AE's and bosses left for meetings. By then we were smoked filled from top to toe. But it was fun. I was only supposed to be there for 6 months for training. But i made some good friends there. We spend long hours working because the agency was small. But i did learn a lot there. And no.. i didn't learn smoking.

My journey continued to Brickfields after the training. Brickfields. Brickfields brings many happy happy memories for me.
