Vent...

I'm blogging very much less than what i want to. I truly enjoy blogging and everyday i will blog in my mind and by the time i get home i would have clean forgetten about what was on my mind earlier on.

For me, blogging is now an outlet for me to organise my thoughts and make myself have a clearer picture of issues that are bothering me, instead of a channel for me to let my frens know how i'm doing...which is not true as well coz by reading the issues that bother me, they too can know how am i doing.

My life is getting pretty mundane and my new job can claim all credit for this being so. I've been complaining so much about it, till i'm beginning to irritate myself but there really isn't much i can do except to complain to try to soothe my frustrated soul.

A good news that happened today - SIA called me back, despite my irresponsible behaviour of missing an interview date. I'm real thankful for this second chance but yet, this chance left me in a state of confusion once again.

A friend once commented that i still have doubts about what i want in life. Its not exactly a flattering statement but its a statement which describe me truly. I wish i was more sure, looks like its about time i spend some quality time to think about it else i will only be wasting more of my precious time.

Hmm.. i dun really have any point to make in this post, but after so much effort spent typing out this post. I will keep it here for the sake of keeping my blog alive and i'm glad creating this post took my mind off issues which had been churning inside my head.

Off to bed now.. Good night fellow earthlings~

Of a blog that went Stagnant..

Been a long while since i last posted something.. My last attempt is still saved as a draft among the many posts which i have manage to churn out in the past months. Due to this reason i have yet to thank all my dearest frenz who took their time out and graced my birthday party... so here goes... Thank you guys! I had great fun and hope you guys enjoyed urself too!

My life has been great, i sort of got head-hunted into my current company, "sort of" is used because despite the similarities like the other hunted one is also human and has been invited to join a certain company, i get a meagre pay in comparison to that other being who gets hunted.
About the job, thankfully i'm adapting well and to some extend, enjoying my work too! This company is very different from most companies i know and i must admit there was some form of culture shock when i first started work.
Culture shock 1 - starting work at 10 - 11 am and having lunch at 12.30pm.. The working hours is soooo FLEXIBLE and its especially suitable for people like me with great time management skills. *kekez*

Culture shock 2 - tea break at 4 pm.. or any other when you feel lethargic and need some caffeine to boost your mental strength...

Interesting..

Interview...

In life its always weird how sometimes when you want something really badly you end up not doing very well for it and trash all chances of getting it. And then again sometimes if you went ahead with something only because you have already committed to it, the result could turn out to have a good outcome.

Recently i went for an interview with SIA. With not much enthusiam but with God's blessings i made it pass the first two rounds, one mass interview with 9 other girls and another personal interview with an uncle who asked me to tell him more about myself.

I got selected, I felt real lucky that i was one of the two people selected for round two, out of the nine others who was being interviewed together. In the first round, we all had to talk on a topic given to us which is "Where is the one place you would very much like to visit", the girls were all very eloquent and well-read naming all the different places they wanna go in the country which they have chosen and i am so totally impressed. For me, i was stumped and instead of choosing a place, i said everywhere would be fine as long as its out of Singapore shoreline and that it seemed, worked well with the interviewers (it can only be luck!).
The style of interview was a new experience for me. I feel i did better than what i expected of myself, talking about myself to 11 others whom i just met, thankfully i didnt blank out but yet still manage to make sense of the words that was running inside my head at that point of time. Now that the whole interview is over and i made it... i'm wondering, what is it they look for in the applicants...

That was briefly how my interview went and now for the best bit of the interview.....
I mis-read the arranged date for third interview and the various test and so you should be able to guess what happens after... (",)

Oh well... :)
