It's been months since I last wrote. Not much has happened. I'm same old. I survived the exams in May and am now still just another office lady rushing through all the hustles and bustles in the city everyday.

After an entire 8 months, I think I'm used to my workplace. Slow, eh? Yea, I am. I always am. It always take me some time before I feel comfortable. I need quite a lot of time to warm up with people. By now, in general, I do get along with people at my workplace.

Yet still, I feel lonely at times when there're clashes of values held by my colleagues. In the realm of commercial world, I've soon realized that the whole set of values people hold are often stunning to me. In so many cases, I've witnessed how justice is made to give way to the interests and benefits of the company. I'm especially baffled when my supervisor as well as the director came up with the desicion to proceed legal action against an intended defendant even though it was not advised at all! I'm really upset 'cause so many times I had no choice but to follow their instructions, which I think was entirely contrary to my own conscience and sense of justice. To make it worse, they all seem to be aware of it but what sort of reaction I could expect from them? Not a word. They simply shrugged it off, thinking that they're in no way free to decide what is a more just decision to make! These people are delibrately biased and they simply choose to turn a blind eye! I don't give it crap but I'm not happy 'cause I have to be part of this injustice by exercising/ enforcing what I think is unjust!

I don't know how far I can go. For sure it's not a place where I could stay long. It's only a matter of time before I leave...
