Got back from an interview at NTUC Centre No. 1 Marina Boulevard. Haha.. the address sounds "pro" right. It really was. The whole building belongs to NTUC. (not the Fairprice Supermarket... Its the corporation. ) NTUC= Nation Trade Union Congress.. if i dint remember wrongly from the Sec3 SS textbook.. haha..
Went to 11th floor and i felt quite out of place. I felt like a small child amidst all working adults. Then i waited till 10.15 when they called me to the 13th floor for the interview. 2 persons interviewed me.. A guy and a lady. The guy was very friendly kept smiling and looked abit like Andrew Zhan.. yep the guy who hosted TJCCO Nite 2004. The guy did most of the talking and the lady only asked a question. Both were quite nice people lar...
Think i still remembered the questions:
1) Are u waiting for your results? Which school are you from?
2) Are u going to further your studies?
3) Any work experience?
4) Can you handle nasty and ridiculous customers?
5) Got any such experience dealing with them? Describe?
6) Do you know the working hours?
7) How well are you familiar with the job of a call ctr clerk?
8) Have you seen a call ctr?
10) They have to wear headphones u know?
11) Can u use the PC?
12) How familiar are u with the NTUC?
13) Ask my dad whether he has got the new version of the link card.. (pple, those haven go change, pls change)
14)What if the customer is very nasty and keep scolding u, how?
15) When can you start work and when are you availiable till?
Haha.. its amazing i can recall.. haha maybe i did forgot some.. ahah.. still the interview was a plesant one.. Heard from eeeling that she has got a friend working there.. So coincidental.. Hope we can become colleagues.. =)
Hmm.. one trouble.. i dont have much "working clothes " to sustain if i am going to work.. Have to buy liao.. oh dear.. spend money..

I'm waiting for imagestation to upload the HK pics.. I know its late but better than never.. Haha.. Wonder why the process of uploading is so slow.. Then how come people can stand uploading so many photos onto it? Or maybe its me who dont have the patience? Cant be. its really slow.
Anyway, bought Mayday's 5th album. Nice one =) I want to listen to it now but it seems like its missing. Think my sister took it to CO. Haiz. So now, i am bored while waiting for the photos to get uploaded.
Nothing much to say now at the beginning of the day. I shall end here. Anyway, thanks Andrea and Wanyi for the e-cards. =)
Merry Christmas.. Do people work on christmas and new year's eve huh?

Went to city hall and chinatown with yinjie yesterday. Actually I dont know where on earth is Peninsula Plaza. Infact, i only know where is Peninsula Shopping Plaza and Peninsula Excelsior Hotel. The good thing is we went there and found out that Peninsual Plaza is just opposite. So, we went to the Powernet Job Agency.. The lady there was nice and said her sources of job mostly came from.. AngMioKio and Novena!! Haha.. though i wouldnt mind that far but the thought of travelling makes me sian..
Then we went to eat at the Indian Restaurant. Food there is still nice :p
Next we went to Chinatown because yinjie is accompanying me to an interview at a travel agency there. The interview is so short! 2 minutes settled it all i guess or maybe lesser. Seriously i think the interviewer is more anxious than me lor and her English is bad. Not that I have a superb command of English grammar but her mistakes are.....okie, Ms Tan from my primary school will kill her.
Alright. I am not very keen about this job because of its working environment.. (its quite messy with all the paper documents)
Then they call me to go for interview again today. I was wondering did they miss me out yesterday or did they lost my records.. Hmm..or did i get in? Anw i decided not to go..
After the interview which was still early, we went Esther's house at Admiralty. Oh gosh, that far. We "chap" in to bake the gingerbread cookies. It was fun.. cutting the shapes with the mould and the decoration with the icing and sweets and toppings=) Got some at my house now.. See the photos.. (hehe) But it took us quite long to finish all.. It was about 11 pm when we left her house.. So her mum fetch us all the way to Tanah Merah. That journey took 1/2 hr and i managed to catch the last bus.. Phew.
Okie.. tomorrow i ll be going for 2 interviews. One at Orchard at 9.30pm.. at TienHsia Educational Center.. (anybody heard of it) and 2nd one at Tampines Mart for the position of Dental Assistant.. Hope they will be successful though i am looking forward to the latter because its better pay and nearer.. Hehe..

Colourful!
Havent had my lunch yet.. cos' i m not hungry yet.. Been skipping lunch lately maybe because i have been getting up quite late, having my breakfast at 10.30am and how is it possible to have my lunch erm at 1.30pm..
Having sleepless nights also..Its so different for the past 2 yrs when sleeping has never been a problem. Such a hectic lifestyle for the past 2 years has allowed me to fall into deep sleep very soon once i touch the bed.. Now.. i have to toss n turn, listen to cds, read a book before i can sleep. And even with those, sleeping is still so... difficult. Yep.
Oh.. qi yu wu so shuai during Star Awards last night. Last night was a night of glamour for mediacorp stars which reminds me of TJ's prom. I like LyeYiLing's gown last night.. Jacelyn's tay also.. So pretty! Haha..The guys were just normal.. with the exception of Christopher Lee's orange shoes with his formal suit! Haha so special.
Realised i like guys or should i say celebs with little words.. Qiyuwu is so stingy with his words. Sly too and needless to say, JAY!!!! They just seem so mysterious, yep cool (even thou some say they r faking it), and so... qi miao.. Qiyuwu: go learn up an instrument n i ll like u even more. Flower Idiot me.
An interesting fun fact to share: Say "colourful" and " i love you". Trying lip reading them, they r actually the same.. =)

I think i am really bored because i am changing my blogskin so often! Maybe its because i found flaws in them so quickly.
Anyway, I was reading a book "Down With Love" recently. Yep, just finished it. It was basically all crappy for the first part of the book and it only started to at least have" content" towards the end. Its a very pro-feminist book, based on the 6os , saying how women can actually behave the same as men at those times, in both workplace as well as in a relationship. Quite meaningful.. My sis is reading it now otherwise i would type in an excerpt from there..
Alright, i am going hongkong in 2 days time. Excited? Not really because i dont really know what to expect from there also. Singapore is getting quite cold these days also..Wonder if its almost the same there, if yes then i tink its not quite exciting.. Hmm.. thinking of the trip to Beijing during sec 2, the weather there is so drastically different from Singapore. That was exciting=)
Oh yah.. dont sms me there from Singapore.. It costs a bomb anyway and heard that both parties need to pay.. Haha..(its not like i recieve alot of sms thesedays.. my phone has been quiet and sleepy since grad nite? oh dear.. )
::Blog till i drop? Nah..its not like i m so into it::

haha.. went shopping for grad nite's makeup.. there goes my money again..fly away..
Nevermind.. haha.. hows the cookies? Got looks not? Hehe.. though the taste not very nice because its abit hard and the recipe is all nonsense!!!It was stated: Bake at 170degress in a pre-heated oven for 15 minutes.. Tick tock tick tock, 15 minutes passed and i took out the cookies but it still tasted like batter! So i adjusted to 220degrees for 20 minutes.. What a big difference!
Well, that had my afternoon well spent.
Oh yarh, those are pictures of my hamster(quite blur) and my baby cousin Junyang.. yes.. same name as my 2A classmate..So cute! heehee
