the interview

Just came back from an interview. First thing i wanna get off my chest?

THE RECEPTIONIST WAS A TOTAL BITCH!

Ok, maybe she wasn't a bitch to me per se but she was just a bitch in general k! I walked in, smiled at her, told her I was looking for the HR person and she just looked back at me sour-faced(would have been quite pretty if she even gave a semblance of a smile), and took out four sheets of paper, passed them to me WITHOUT SAYING A WORD. I mean, ok la, its common sense that I should fill up the application form but shouldn't she at least tell me out of basic courtesy? God.

So I looked through the four pages and the first 2 were the basic details about yourself. Then I saw the next 2 pages I nearly fainted. One was a plain sheet of paper asking me to "write a paragraph about myself". That I could handle. The other one looked exactly the same but it was in chinese!! And I wasn't sure if the instructions were the same but I assumed they were from what little sense I could make out of it. After I finished filling up everything except the chinese form, I went to the receptionist and asked if I still needed to fill up the chinese form since I filled up the english one. Unfortunately, she said yes.

I spent the next 10 minutes thinking about what I knew how to write in chinese and ended up with one sentence. 我是一个很喜欢跟别人讲话的人. (I just looked for that whole sentence using online pin yin dictionary. My pin yin is actually damn good. If I could've written the description in pin yin I could've written alot more!) Anyway, I know it sucks but at least I attempted SOMETHING right?

Oh ya, one more thing I forgot to mention is that I REALLY wanted the job(coz its damn near my house, haha) thats why I put in so much effort. If it were any other job I would've probably fucked it and handed up a blank sheet of paper.

Anyway, after that was interviewed by the HR and then the project manager AND THEN still made to do a written test but I passed!! The HR exec told me I was shortlisted and would liase with the recruitment agency about the pay. =D

Pray that I get the pay I want k! Will update again soon!! =)

P.S. I know there's a possibility that the bitch in question might one day see this but well, hope not! Lol.

When in Rome..

..do as the Romans do!

Okok, this is actually a Nuffnang movie contest to catch the show.

"An ambitious young New Yorker (Kristen Bell), disillusioned with romance, takes a whirlwind trip to Rome where she defiantly plucks magic coins from a ‘foolish’ fountain of love, inexplicably igniting the passion of an odd group of suitors: a sausage magnate (Danny Devito), a street magician (Jon Heder), an adoring painter (Will Arnett) and a self-admiring model (Dax Shepard). But when a charming reporter (Josh Duhamel) pursues her with equal zest, how will she know if his love is the real thing?"

I think Beth(Kristen Bell) should be with Nick(Josh Duhamel) because..

1. He's hot!
2. He's a reporter, I like that.
3. He's the main actor, he'd end up with her ANYWAY.

And as for the 3 things I want in my partner.. Well, last time when I was younger people would ask me," What kinda guy do you like? " and all I could answer was," Ah Bengs! ". Lol. But as years go by, I now know what I want.

1. Someone who is close/filial to his parents.
2. Someone with a kind heart but a little bit of toughness for that bad boy feel (yes i can't get over the ah bengs totally!)
3. Someone who has a group of close friends just like me. (somehow i just prefer the ones with one group of close friends over the ones with many friends but none are close)

Yup, that would probably the top 3 criteria. Haha.

at the risk of sounding cliche..

Ok, I know I haven't blogged for very long. More on that later.

I went to SGH to visit my friend today. He was shot while in Thailand for military training and his eyesight might be affected. On my way there, while I was there and after I came back, alot of thoughts passed through my head but the one that kept replaying was, "treasure what you have now". And I'm sure all my other friends who were there were thinking the same thing.

But why is it that it takes a mishap for us to think that way? I guess being human, we tend to take things for granted and we only realise how important certain things/people are to us when we are on the verge of losing/have already lost it.

So, stop complaining about how sucky life is and be grateful for the little things we tend to take for granted like bring able to walk and talk freely and having a fully abled body. Treat the people who are close to you the way they are supposed to be treated. Alot of people tend to be more rude to their family members (i'm one of them), simply because we know they love us so much and will never hold it against us. But they deserve better than that, don't they?

Treasure what you have; be it your own well-being or the people around you. And to my friend, hope you get well soon.


Ok, enough sappy talk. Short update.. I know its been a long time since I've blogged and this time I shall not give any excuses. I've been lazy!!! And I can't really say I've been busy with work coz I have not been working for one week already. Haha, yes I've served my notice and am finally out of that hellhole! After me, another 2 girls quit. Lol. So, now I'm slacking/looking for a new job. Of coz been partying alot but money's running low already. *sigh*

Oh ya, also haven't been blogging coz nobody's tagging anymore and if it wasn't for my statistics counter, I'd have thought nobody's reading my blog anymore! Those who read tag leh! Hehe.

K la, gonna sleep soon. TAG ok?!!!
