INTERVIEW

i was still sleeping when she called
'can you come down for an interview at 2.30?'
so i asked the address and hung up.

then it dawned upon me, who was she and where was she calling from?
i had absolutely no idea
i sent out 6 applications and i have no idea which is which!
so i went online to jobscentral to check
and they apparently dont state whether the employer checked the resume or not

there i was, decked out in formal at the office
in my 6 applications, i applied mostly for intern for PR
so i thought this company is probably hiring an intern

the interview was more like a casual chat,
i was told to list my strengths, some of my weaknesses
my hobbies, and things not in the resume basically
so i did. CCAs and what-i-do-in-my-free-time.
she was chatty too and it became a better conversation
then it turned out that she wasnt looking for an intern,
but someone who wants a career in PR
i mean like, gosh at the moment i felt,
how to put it
abruptly slipping into the workforce
like yesterday im still a student, today im supposed to do a 9-6?
i kept saying awesome and cool during the whole interview
and in the end when i was about to leave
the interviewer was like 'awesome!'
shocked me. [:

all's not confirmed till i meet the big boss on monday
of which i am not sure whether he will like me at all
in the meantime, im still spamming employers with my resume [:

i realised today the importance of financial planning
my family doesnt really have money to finance me through university
and i want to make sure that next time should i have kids,
i would want them to rest assured that no matter what interests them
and what paths they want to take, i will have sufficient finances to see them through
its not my parents' issue of course, i mean who teaches financial planning in the old days?
but we, the next generation should know better now.

the purpose of the whole chunk above is to tell you all,
is that im holding back my uni plans.
perhaps id return to my study table after a couple of years of work
but for now, its not practical to do so
the crisis did hit us all in one way or another.

i was looking at my msn, looking for people to talk to
my usual msn game-playing-buddy's not online (aka shengming)
so i decided to count the number of contacts i have
my gosh, 424!
i mean, do i know them all?
its time to clear contacts
then i saw this person i added online for gaming purposes. HAHA.
like gunbound, my gosh! that was ages ago.
i think i added him cause i wanted him to teach me how to use a certain bot.
cracks me up when i think about it

snap out of it siying! you are going to start work soon!
this is not logical at all
i shall go scout for more jobs and send out more resumes
then think about whether i want to download gunbound
id feel less guilty that way. [:

i have this weird craving for laska now
and my supper buddies are all not online :[

the flowers on my table makes me miss you.
