Sucks to be me, an unemployed. 2:19 AM

I finally graduated from school.

Out of the walls of SMU, "they" once told me there were a lot more than what I see in school.

No Magma, Suma or whatever, I have Karma? haha.

I still find this joke little funny.

I've been spending my time fb-ing, going / hanging out w others (v minimal), CNY shopping (which i still havent find something i really like/want, job hunting.

The moment I hear the word JOB, churns my insides.

I hate going thru so much effort, time travelling up and down so many times a week.

And just finding myself going to the actual interviews like 2 times? Yes, those darn agencies.

It drains your energy, money and hopes.

Why can other people at the age of 25 be like directors/VPs and making good money with great careers ahead of them, while I work my ass off for a job that pays maybe 1.8k?

1 point 8 fucking k? Then why in the world should i spend the last 3 and a half years studying like shit?

Is it the GPA they want that badly? Does it really affect that much of your job performance?

Rejection sucks.

And yes, nothing else but you suck that up too.

Am I really that unemployable?

I'd be too lazy to start uploading pictures in this blog from now on i think. (unless i really have the time)

So i guess, its major alphabet feasting from now on. Good luck with that. haha.

I can't sleep 'cause I am sulking that I can't really set up a business right now nor someone who just employ a marketing graduate.

Finding a damn job is really tough.

Even tougher than losing that belly of mine.

When u are caught in this situation, what else should you do to motivate yourself?

Cause it seems like its taking away all my enthusiasm that I need to go on with life or for the next interview.

Meeting with Pam Lim gave me some insights today.

I hope I get to achieve something out of it especially with an expert from home.

Just many things going thru my head.

Whenever I meet people these days, the first question will always be, "Hey, u working now?" OR "Hey, so when are you getting married?".

If you really wanna know the truth to 2 questions above.

"Neither. I am unemployed and my clock is ticking away to my expiry date plus weddings/marriages scares the hell out of me."

Fuck.

We'd say a short goodbye. 4:31 PM

I'd love to blog everyday.

But really, my life's now is all 4 hours of sleep, loads of caffeine and all day long in campus.

Please give me sometime to to do this all over again when i bid my last goodbye in campus.

Unenthu waves slowly*

Mid Way of Year 2009 7:05 PM

Some updates:

Celebrated Weiting's Birthday The other day! ( I find meetings very fun to be at these days, though we are missing Robin and Mao Mao)

Those that were present that night! :) A family we call our own.
I found the dress I wanted from F21 and Joop has a similar piece in purple and guess what? It was on 70% off! $79.90 now $20! I grabbed it immediately into the fitting room! haha! Beams*
I had my time off for working on Sat, nonetheless! Happy to the max! I thought it was gone for good when I blogged the last time. Not so bad afterall yea? Am really thankful for my mgr to help me ask for it ( i knew there wasn't any obligations on her end.)
I'm ending my internship on 10th Aug 09 (and i realized it;s a public holiday! hahaha! So officially my last day's 7th Aug 09) Am both delighted and upset. Happy because i get to finally enjoy my holidays for a week before sch starts, and if all goes well i get to visit Bangkok again. Upset cause i think i will miss my colleagues heaps! They are all such a fun bunch to hang out with and i really did learn a lot here. And there's no exams/test/readings/participation in this few months in my life. This is definitely a place i wish to work in, in future.
I had a nasty fall the other day, on the filthy-est local street (ARAB Street, think: all the food, sheesha, grease, etc.) in the almost-39 degrees afternoon. While stepping down the curb, my ankles when soft and gone are the skin on my knee caps! Super painful! :( and i was limping the next few days, cannot cover blanket, can't shower properly! :( I'm such a clumsy elephant. When i got back to the office, there wasn't much antiseptic things to use on the wound and my mgr helped clean my fresh wound with hand sanitizer! I was in so much pain i burst into tears, i just couldn't scream out loud at all. The intensity of the pain, i tell you! No Joke! But am really touched when everyone asked how I was the following days. Special thanks to Boss that held my hand. :D

The pulut hitam looking wounds!
Been to a few flea markets recently, got some steals! :D
Aunty mummy's bday was on sat and we had a feast at Jumbo. Do u know they are "aprons" are u went you eat their chilli crab? haha.
Once Jul hits, i'm gonna get broke again cause all my Leo babies' birthdays are coming!
I really wanna go back to the gym! Stupid wound! Does anyone have any recommendations for lightening scars from wounds? I bet my knees are gonna so have tht!
Am meeting Brotherly, Na and Joey tonight! :)

Okay! 10 updates and random blabberings! :)

Slavery? 8:46 PM

I'm fucking paid so lowly and I have to give up my weekends?
How unfair is that?

When I say low i mean, lower than the bangalas along the road!
Argh!

But who cares?
I'm afterall the first intern they hired, beat that!

That closest encounter with huge reptile! 2:43 PM

I am only very very afraid of Snakes after I see too much Animal Planet, Okto, National Geographic.

Sheer Horrid sights of swallowing of an entire animal or even MAN! Staring protruding eyes and scaly/ slimy skin! Sooo. The Majorca new range is Chapter 23 – Innocent Pleasure. After chopping like 900 pieces of paper, I finally completed the press releases (self made book form) for the press and brand ambassadors (bloggers).

For this particular chapter, it’s themed Garden of Eden.
Of course we learnt about consistencies in a brand, so everything else, is with snakes and greens. (we dressed up our very own meeting room!)

the goodie bag i packed for them!

We went around to get the cookies and treats for journalists and bloggers.
So J did a presentation on the new products and they had a chill lax/ makeup session w the goodies we bought and I made tea from TWG. Seriously, I made so much tea I could have just fed a village, please. Btw, if you haven’t hear about TWG? It’s some super high end tea company.
Oh wells, I was a tea connoisseur for a day!

Highlight of the event? Mr Yusoff the snake charmer!
He spends $1000 a month just to feed snakes with live birds and what nots. Eeks!
Just 3 from his huge collection at home!
Enjoys a monopoly business as he performs with snakes, does magic and is really good at engaging with the crowd. :)
