hmmmmm. ok finally there's one!
What should my considerations be?
To take up a job because i'm lazy to apply for more... is a very bad reason. But i really don't know if i wanna spend another x weeks applying-going for interviews-waiting-more waiting.
Of course, if I'm patient, and choosy, I may get a job that I might be more excited about. Maybe.
Whatever decision I make, I should be happy about it right? Hmmmmm...
Will I be happy travelling to Changi South? There's a shuttle bus from Bedok though. Haiya. But central is so much less ulu. Aiya. But then again, means I dun have squeeze in with the crazy morning/evening crowd... I think.
Will I be happy with the amount they are offering me? Urmmmm. muhahaha. I can't believe they actually increased the pay.... lalala. Though I wished I have stated a higher expected salary. Darn. Is this greed? How much am I worth, really? Does the pay now really matter? Will I learn as much as what they had assured me?
Will I be happy knowing that my first job is not one of those glam and reknown big companies? Do all these really matter? If I'm zai, no need to worry bout this right?
I think I'm ready to start my working life. It's just whether I wanna start with this company... or wait longer for some company that can "sweep me off my feet". But I wonder whether there's such a company since I don't exactly have a dream company. I don't even know if Marina Bay Sands will be considered as one. I guess I wouldn't mind, but provided that they are more efficient. They are taking forever to get back to me. Slow poks.
POKE POKE POKE.
Maybe when I'm finally working as a HR executive, I will understand why some recruitment process is bloody slow. But I shall aim to be much faster. Seriously. haha!

hello once again!
wahhhh. i haven't dropped back in a long long while! sorry blogger, i think facebook kinda distracted me from you.
but i realise blogging is still the best for me to get my thoughts out openly... or rather, at least more openly than i would in facebook.
to those who still visits this page, big hello to you! i'm back from the states! and currently jobless! any lobang? muhahahaa!
was feeling kinda blue so decided to pop by. i realised i was so filled with negative thoughts the moment i woke up, it's so darn unhealthy. everything that i see/hear kinda got me slightly irritated or just gave me that 'bleah' feeling... listening to the conversation btw my dad and bro in the morning, hearing the beeping noise on someone's phone on the train, squeezing in with the crowd and feeling irritated by the stuffiness.... I didn't even feel like moving to the beat of my fav clubbing songs that i was hooked onto in the states.
Why the negativity! Why the blues! Where's my joy! My appreciation of life!
Sucks sucks. I realise how wonderful it is to be feeling happy and carefree. If only I'm back in Long Island, I'll grab my shoes and jog to the beach in Bridgehampton. Ok lah, actually East Coast is good enough. hehehehe. But I'm not too sure if jogging will make my jaw ache since I had just undergone a wisdom tooth extraction... nvm... Soon!
Anyway I just went for an interview with Capitaland. I enjoyed the interview actually. The recruiter was really nice and friendly. But yeah... like she said, they are looking for a suitable candidate, not necessarily the best one. So..... we'll see whether I am suitable or not! Sometimes I don't know if being my true self at the interview is the best way to go... Theoretically, yes I should I think. But then when I reflect again after the interview, I start to wonder whether I could have said something else intead, or whether I should have been a little less honest. Hmmmm. Well well well.
The recruiter asked me what I think is my strength / how others view me. A very standard question... which I usually would have stuck to my "standard answer" which is kinda applicable to most jobs that I apply to. Strangely today, I said a whole load of stuff about having a "positive mindset". I wonder it was to remind myself with regard to the blueness that I've been experiencing. Perhaps perhaps.
I like being happy-go-lucky Jo!
Jia you lehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, oieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
