The Danger of Anger

There is a saying, "An angry person opens the mouthand closes the eyes. Like a crocodile." It is said that an angry person transfers the effects of anger when he or she regains reasoning. Just as money stored in the bank will reap a dividend, so will the anger stored in the mind reap the returns of bitterness.

Whom or what do we fight with when we are angry? We fight with ourselves, and become, as it were, our worst enemy. We must try to eradicate to tally this dangerous enemy latent in our minds with a proper understanding of the situation. Anger grows stronger when fuled by emotion, especially when craving is behind that emotion. Anger can cost a person's reputation, job, friends, loved ones, peace of mind, health and even one's very own self.

Summer Break ~ Work ~

Started working on the 28th of May. Was suppose to start on june but the finance manager called and say he needs help urgently. So i have to sacrifise my extra one week of rest for work. Oh ya, forgotten to mention where n wat am i working as. I work as an assistant accountant in Columbia Asia-an american healthcare company. They manages a few big hospitals in asia. Like in Vietnam, India, Indonesia, and of cos Malaysia. 1st day of work was kinda easy. Key in some invoices. K not that easy, cos i have to know which account to key it in. Learnt a lot from there. Journal entry, credit n debit note, bank draft, transfer fund, bank n creditor reconciliation, making payments, writing n printing cheques, etc...still got lots more to learn.



I manage to get this job because there is this lady-azni who is going on her maternity leave soon and they need someone to take over her job urgently. For almost 3 weeks azni taught me all the things that i need to know. I have to write down notes. I even transfer it to a notebook when i get home. haha so hardworking.(self praise in no praise)haha...



Though i make mistake, some very careless mistakes, but all my colleagues did not blame me. They give me chance to learn from my mistakes n teach me how to correct it from the mistakes. Glad to have such nice colleagues.



One thing i hate the most is doing accounts for the 2 Vietnam hospitals. Just cant read their "beautiful" writings. Especially numbers. Oh well, I have to get use to it. Since i'll be handling them for the next 3 months.
