时间的拾荒者 Make me the lyre

摩肩接踵，站站远隔的2号线。陪我的最常是免费取阅的报纸。前日就是在这豆腐干般褶皱的报上看了篇豆腐干般大小的书评，说的是掌珠名媛，俏净如狐的，比起那闾巷人家的女儿，少了的竟是那么点儿烟火气。倒是那古桥溪头汲水洗衣，能缝缝补补、浆浆洗洗的女孩子，看了，总能让人觉着，到底是这柴米油盐、家常日子最长养女儿。

也长养猫咪。

Team里有个姐姐信天主，Outlook里有个文件夹是福音。

今天世界观特别颠覆，反而想起看到过的一句话。

《旧约·传道书》："一代过去，一代又来，地却永远长存。日头出来，日头落下，急归所出之地。风往南刮，又往北转，不住的旋落，而且返回转行原道，江河都往海里转，海却不满，江河从何处流，仍归何处。"

我祈祷，哪天的桥五能让人茕茕孓立，形影相吊。

再无声嘶力竭地嚷叫。

人和人之间的距离能像军训时要求的那样，一臂长，一拳宽，不要手恣意一插就落在别人的口袋里百口莫辩。

若我的祷告没有被听到，我只好嫁给出租车司机了。

阿门。

Just finished my second week as GE FMP Intern @CTP

During the orientation, we’re told that we would be appraised by so-called ‘PIE criteria’, which stands for Performance, Image and Exposure.

The best thing as a FMP Intern is that you can get bunds of precious opportunities of training and meeting big bosses. I doubt I’ll ever get these chances if being a PTA.

Experienced Events:

7.20-7.21 EID Orientation @ CTC

Met all kinds of XXXPs, FMP(Financial Management Program), EHSLP(Environment, Health & Security Leadership Program), IMLP(Information Management Program), CLP(Commercial Leadership Program) etc.  Panel discussions, work shop, EHS & compliance training, team building. Got acquainted with guys from diversified background: aviation, energy, water, oil, IT…fond of their low-key personality. Always put their feet on the ground, never lavishing or boasting like IB or consulting people, do have logical thinking and always put forward useful proposals instead of paying lip service.   

7.22 Roundtable with Sud Amit(Asian FMP HR Manager, graduated from FMP&CAS) @CTP

Never imagine that full-time FMPs are that quiet. We interns met Amit just the day before and brought out so many questions. Sharp contrast, hah?

7.26 Excellent in Excel- 1st Training Session @CTP

I missed it, for I can’t log on corporate outlook calendar using my personal laptop. God WHEN can I get my laptop?! The outsourcing IT department is SOOOOO efficient!

7.29 One-on-one talk with Stewart Chen(Corporate HR Manager, former HR Manager of Bank of America)

I know he’s talkative, but I don’t know he’s that talkative, lol. The scheduled half-an-hour one-on-one talk lengthened, lengthened and lengthened, only came into a halt because someone called to mentioned he’d missed a con-call@@

Got some useful advice on choosing banking or finance as the start-point of career.  And he honestly told me that he wanted us to be full-time FMPs, so his advice is more or less like a selling pitch, so do take a percentage off on it.

I have to admit that Stewart got all the charisma that a talented HR should get.

7.30 Roundtable with Ken Friesen(Lighting Global CFO, graduated from FMP&CAS) @宜山路900号GE C&I Business

Ken is born and brought up in Canada, and has been with GE for 16 years. Compared with Amit, he’s not that approachable, kind of arrogant. But he has all it needs to be arrogant. This time questions poured around the roundtable, which is actually square><, and I wonder is it because Stewart is with us this time and not the last time.

After the roundtable we had Pizza Hut for dinner. That reminded all of us of the two-hour-case in workshop. At that time no one is in the mood of devour , but now it’s different. The chaos is that we took a taxi back to CTP, which cost 90 RMB and is supposed to be reimbursed. But now due to the integrity compliance policy, we have a long odyssey to go to get the imbursement. 

7.31-8.1 FMP Performance Spanish dance rehearsal @财大

        Learning the Spanish dance ”The fire of Spain”, which we’ll perform on the FMP conference. One word can conclude the 48 hours: exhausted! 

         My limbs, especially my right arm, seemed not to be mine any more. Oh God, 10 more rehearsals around the corner, how can I wheather that?

         Please please please give me the background music——”I WILL SURVIVE”！

8.5 Mid-term Report Out  9:00-12:00@CTP Water Lily

8.6 Excellent in Excel- 2nd Training Session @CTP

 Would-Come-Events:

8.11 Excellent in Excel- 3th Training Session @CTP

8.19 FMP Conference

8.27 Final report out

September Interview -with Finance Manager

October Interview with CFO to judge whether you can get full-time FMP offer

Etc.

To be continued.

不论是Space还是blogbus，都已不知有多久没有更新过了，日记倒是摞了厚厚的一叠，兀自累积。眼看着她们的文字越来越好，我已无法企及。2年前何等相近，却因为扎潜书海和喘息数理之分有了泾渭的叹息。

又如果，注定有外在的阻力，那我现在挣扎着的，又是什么可惜？最后的区别，只不过像1块钱的红豆棒冰和7块5毛钱明治红豆栗子雪糕，一个把红色的疤痕都袒露在外，而另一个，包裹在芯子里自欺欺人罢了。

况且后者的代价，总是要来得更大的。
