Over The Moon



Hi all! I know, I know. It has been a while. I am sorry. :(

Well, at least I have a good news to tell today! :) Remember the last time when I told you about the job interview that I really and am dying to get the job in the descent yet posh looking office venue? (Did I mentioned about the office is in a posh office building and I get to know about all the details after being tipped by one of my bestest friend on earth who has been working there ages ago! ;) Nice one, Zain! ;) ) Not that I care if the office is beatifully - professionally decorated and I will feel like this is the most amazing moment in my life - living the dream as a successful career woman. Oh, I think I do actually care! ;)

So, my first day would be on Thursday. And I am so excited - over the moon! But at the same time, nervous like crazy!! :( It will be the first time working in an office after so long.

Anyhow, we'll see what happens and I will update soon when it is actually happening. :)

Until then. Have a nice day everyone! ;)

P/S: It's raining heavily over here that somehow it reminds me of Dublin. Aah...

So, It Went Well... :)


Tadaaa....!! :)

I got short-listed!! I went for the interview, but to be honest with you... I was a bit hesitant to stay, and I nearly chickened out! I nearly bail off, and basically I nearly going home!

But at the end of the day, I stayed with the reason, just give it a go and why not. It was a group interview (I think I did mentioned it before), and I thought it is going to be around 4-6people, but definitely, and obviously... I was wrong! There were 35 people altogether!

And, mind you... all of them are dressing up, with colourful hats, coats, necklaces, etc. and I was the only plain jane there at the time! That is one thing that make me want to go home as well. But, I stayed.

So, we were divided into three little groups, and basically to shorten the story, I got short-listed! Yayyy!! There are 12 of us who got short-listed, and will be having an on-floor trial! It will be for an hour, and I think they want to see how we interact with customers. I think. I mean, I think. I don't think they want the 12 of us. Is it not?

So, mine would be on Sunday, 2-3pm. The most peak hours of the day! I will definitely make a good amount of fool of myself that day. Haha...

Oh, when we were in the group, we were asked two questions, and I already made a mess, when at the end of the day, they are laughing at me everytime I speak! Haha... First question was, find some random thing in your bag and try to sell that to them. And I was selling my key chain! Haha... And the second question was, if you were a book, what would you be? And, I said, a children book! Because I am fun! Haha... but they were asking me the title of the book, and I simply said, Thumbellina. The little thumb girl! Why? Because I am small, and will go through all the hurdles, but at the end of the day, everything is just fine. :)

Haha... And I did make a mess of myself, as they were laughing at me, non-stop, but hey... at least that got me into the second round of the interview, isn't it? Haha...

So, I will let you know what happen on Sunday, and with that, happy weekends to everyone and talk soon! :)

Hula Hoops of Life


Hey! :)

Well, I have a good news and a not so good news. Maybe we will start with the good news?

Okay, here goes! I got a job interview next week, on Wednesday at 8am! Yayyyy!! My first job interview after nearly eight weeks unemployed and trying so hard applying for jobs!!! :) It is not a Quantity Surveying job obviously, looking at the scenario of the construction and economy at the moment, but... at least I have an interview to look forward to!

It is a job interview with LUSH! A soap shop. And I sent in my resume last two weeks. It is not just a resume, but I have to submit a cover letter, and it has to be NOT A FORMAL cover letter, which has to be loads of colours and nothing spells formal in that particular letter! And, I sent in one kind of cover letter, which I think I would not get a job at all if they require a normal type of cover letter. Oh, that is not all. It has to be stated in there, why they should hire me and why am I amazing? How difficult is that? I have to brag about myself, and which I did... and for the last two weeks, I nearly make a decision of never ever going to walk in the shop anymore, because I feel so embarrassed of the letter that I put that in! Haha... but, luckily with that weird letter I got myself an interview! Yayyy...

Oh, and I am so looking forward for it. Here is the copy of my cover letter!

The bad news is, I think thing has got worst with me and Mr. Boyfriend. It's just that I think we don't really get along as how we were before, and it is quite sad to be honest! I nearly forgot to tell you that last weekend, I thought it was the end. Seriously, I mean he just acting so weird (which I think because of the amount of the alcohol he consumed), but apart from that it seems like I don't actually know who he is anymore.

And today, he came over and we went for lunch (okay, hear this first. I did asked him to go for a movie, last two days but was cancelled since he wanted to watch the football and same goes with yesterday, that is why he came in today early, to make up the movie invitation that he has to cancel), then he went back home, to watch movies with his friends (which I thought it was the Watchmen - which I said he can go that without me, because I don't really favor that movie), but only to find out few hours ago that he went to see a horror movie (which, he supposedly hated it everytime I asked to watch that kind of movie)!

Maybe I am acting like a drama queen or some sort, but I am a bit pissed off. And I think I am allowed to be pissed. I asked him to go for a movie, few days ago... but got refused. And then, suddenly he went to see a movie with group of friends, and it is not a movie that he intended to watch and it is fine? I don't really want to go and watch the movie with him and friends, but when it is become so obvious that I have been excluded and all my opinions are always been shit to him, but it is okay when his friends made it, it is just pissing me off! Really.

Oh, and mind you. The group of friends, there are few girls as well. No, no. I am not jealous with them, they are nice to me. Just that, why am I being excluded? I don't really want to go, but just why?

Oh, and one more thing, last weekend as well... there is this one little filthy bitch, who claimed to be his ex (even though, his friend told me that it was just a one time act, and not even his girlfriend, etc.), just throw herself onto him, and I am in front of them watching!! Oh, and to make it worst, he did NOTHING! Nothing at all, but just looking at me! What is wrong there? Am I missing something?

I don't seem to know who he is now, already. We can't get along at all now. Not at all. Ah well...
