Yay

So, I got the job already. Yay!! I am starting soon. Hmm.. it's going to be interesting time for me. I get to learn new things, get to know my team members, experience the work environment and lots more which I cannot think about for now. So that means I am quitting the current job as student admin assistant. I know that is a good job in a stress free environment but if I don't go for this job, I will never get work experience in order to get other jobs. I know it is a good opportunity. =)

Yay!! Wish me luck people. =)

Another

Ish, I can't copy words or paragraphs from my other blog to here. Sigh, now I need to type it out again. Anyway, I went for another interview/assessment centre this morning. I would say it went well. Now it is up to them to choose who they want to work for them. I did my best, gave the answer I want them to hear. It's a third job interview this time. Will update again when I hear of anything.

Everyone do

I bet we all have embarrassing moments. Unfortunately I have lots. I think I get a lot from not listening properly. So what is up with that. It might be because I do not catch all the words and I am also getting forgetful. Gosh, I am still young and already getting forgetful. I do try my best to remember things and in the event of trying, I forget some other stuff. That always happens. Sigh.. what am I to do about this?

I notice someone joining in the followers section. This blog isn't very interesting compared to my other ones.

My hands are getting cold and the weather looks like it is going to rain soon. Heavy. And I did not bring umbrella. Oh what is the point if the wind is strong. Somehow, I have a feeling that I will get caught in the rain. Oh well, I will just shower after I get back from work.

Happy and sad

I just want to say that I am so happy to see my friend married. =) That is, I saw her wedding photos through facebook. I wish I was there. =(

Wishes

Whoops.. haven't blog here for ages.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

I did have a wonderful Christmas and New Year week and I do not even feel like going back to reality, which obviously is working casual and finding a permanent job. I am grateful to my boss for asking me to work. He was just telling me this morning that they needed help as they are moving the card administration to another location (if you are a student, you will understand). So I will be needed till early March. Yay!! I should say my other colleague (even though I refer her as lady boss), she told me that boss is most likely to take some leave in mid march till early april and she might be needinfg full time. I told her that I am free if she needs me. Hehehe..
In the meantime, I am going to keep looking for other part time jobs. I am actually thinking of doing a second job. I don't mind working everyday as from now just to gain more work experience for a full time job. =)

Merry Christmas =P

Christmas time sure is busy for almost everyone. I wish I am back home to go holiday but I chose to stay back in NZ. I thought I would find a temporary job. Sigh, so far I have not found any temporary job besides my boss calling me to work in January.

I have had advice from friends and cousins on reflecting on things. I kept them in mind but keep forgetting to think more.
One thing is, I started getting more busy since last week. Besides working on a casual job for the graduation ceremony, I cooked and did some housechory stuff. I rarely have time to sit down and go online freely. I mean, I do go online with the mind of checking emails and chatting to my family. I felt that I haven't been keeping a good contact with them. I know I do not call them so I chatted to them on instant messaging instead. It is quite expensive to call and speak verbally. Wait, I should use skype to talk and webcam-ing with them. Well, that will have to wait till January since all of us will be a little busy with holidaying and enjoying ourselves.

Right, I should stop babbling now. I just finished making cheesecake from late morning to early afternoon. This was my first time making cheesecake without any help. I think I estimated the ingredients too much. It is trial and error afterall. I know now what to do and what not to do.

A reason

I guess everything happens for a reason. I was still hoping that the company called me to say that they still want me to work. But it wasn't them, it was my boss from card centre, asking me if I could work throughout January. Hmm.. at least I will have a job and something to do. I was going to volunteer myself to work for someone just to get work experience. =)

Another rejection

Well, I have nothing to say for myself except feel pity. I did not get any call back about any job offer so I guess that is the end of the first interviews rejection even though the interviews went well. I guess I will have to try again. I did read somewhere that even though interviews went well, it does not mean that you will get the job. Yea, I guess so. I shouldn't put too much high hopes for myself. I did tell myself that but after the second interview finishes, I can't help feeling that way. Well, anyway, I am not that upset anymore. It is just another rejection. I will have to try again.

I am inspired

Hmm.. weekend was great. I think I am going to appreciate weekends more when I start the working life. I went for a second interview this morning and I think it went great though I do not know if I am going to be hired. Well, I am not going to think about it now. I will let God decide for me.

Anyway, I had to walk to the mall to take the bus to city early in the morning. Only then, it struck me that this is working life. I would have to wake up this early everyday (maybe feeling tired and sleepy) to go to work. I thought, well I am just going to sleep early every night then. If I do get this job, it is a part time job. The HR manager told me that the job could turn full time after 3 months. He also told me some inspiring stories that made me decide to take up the challenging job even though he warned me it is very challenging. I was thinking, what job is not challenging but yea, I like to try it out.

Dad has told me about how he started out and I thought that I would do the same too and rise up to become like him. I do want to be successful like him and I know I can do it. It is the inspiration, you know. Oh the HR manager ask me if I ever thought of wanting to work in what I have studied. I told him honestly, there are not a lot of geology jobs in NZ and that I am willing to change my future career. I explained more but now I cannot remember what I said.

Language

I think I am starting to regret not spending time to learn reading or writing Mandarin. As I search around the student jobs site or any other websites, some of the jobs requires being good at speaking Mandarin and able to help customers with banking or anything. But I cannot see how I would be able to force myself to learn about the language. I would probably cry while writing out the Chinese words. I was told before that I did do that when I was 5 and my mum do not want stress me more. Yup, I understand that. I guess it is just my willingness to learn the language. Hey, if you ask me to learn now, I would be reluctant. I guess I am not much of a language person. I would learn if I have to though. First of all, I need the motivation.
