Life as an Intern


It has been 1½ months since my practical training ended, now only I talk about it due to never ending busy (busy work, busy trip and busy rest) haha! Like always.

I am grateful that I've made a correct decision between two choices. I learnt many things which is what I really want for my practical training from this firm and eventually my efforts paid off when I receive the recognitions from both inside and outside the company.

Our intern gang made up from 1 Malaysia. The life at O.L.Yeo & Co. is challenging especially during the peak season yet relax when all kinds of entertainment came.

The thing I'm afraid the most is the room temperature. It can be very cool until our upper class cute Indian friend covered himself with girl's scarf. Sometimes, you know, not all accounts are in proper manner, they can be very messy. So, you will end up going mad. Haha!

One of the entertainments we had is having a luncheon to celebrate our big boss' birthday at Restaurant New Lagoon. We're required to do performance based on our creativities and ideas for all his kindness and opportunities given to us.

Wonder what is this? The guys were all drunk! I'm still awake :) Anywhere this is not the office.


There's nothing to talk about peak season, it's none other than rushing the audit for clients. In conjunction with the end of peak season, O.L.Yeo Group of Companies organized a charity show like every year they did. The purpose is to raise fund and send to any charity organization the donors wish to donate their monies to. This year, the venue is at Equatorial Hotel and the performers are from the Malaysia Popular Dama Orchestra team.

Yes! It is about Teresa Teng. The main singer, Tan Soo Suan sings like Teresa Teng!! It is a good orchestra and everything just went well and perfect that night. Anywhere, the song I like the best is the "Careless Whisper" sang by Chang Fang Chyi (1st from right). Too bad I can't manage to get the song copy :(
Before the show started, all the guests were free to have a buffet. Our job is to serve as an usher and direct them to their tables or offer them service whenever they need help. We were required to dress up ourselves with elegant look.

The thing that all the girls will never miss is to have a shoot! Do we look nice? =)

And the guys (interns only).

Next, a farewell luncheon is held specially for us the interns at the roof top of Bamboo Hut Bistro.
 Felt so wonderful (end of practical training!) yet heavy hearted to leave the company.

 All in all still a happy memory (if you don't disturb me in class!)

For me, I don't choose Big 4 as a place to undergo industrial training is because you will be focusing on a particular area only for few months, or even learn a little. In small and medium sized company, instead, you can see the whole picture of audit and have the opportunity to explore more as in O.L.Yeo & Co., we are given individual cases whereby we need to responsible on the clients' audit from beginning to the end. As the cases go, you will encounter different situations. From there, I learnt :)

Thanks O.L.Yeo & Co : Mr.Willie Yeo & Mr.Jerry Wong. Not to forget, all the colleagues and intern friends.
