Will I Get the Job?
Mood: Ecstatic!!!
Been a hell of a week... uncle and his girlfriend came over on sunday and is staying for a week at our house... been going out every day and eating a lot, and i mean a lot!!! i feel soo fat...
Now lets recap since the last time i blogged...
The AHDA Conference was a great experience!! i did satchels and friday lunchtime registrations... the satchels were so tiring!! my thigh muscles still hurt like hell and that was like from last wed... friday registrations i expected more people retrieving their letters and more registrations... didn't do much but still had some great experience helping people and answering queries... even though i didn't know half of the questions asked and had to direct them to someone organising the actual conference... there was also a person who asked where the toilets were and i had a total block... i totally forgot where the nearest ones were... haha oh well...
uncle arrived on sunday morning... nothing much done that day... just really happy to see all da junk food he brought with him and the "fake water" that i wanted for my miniature craft is here!!! i could now make soups and stuff...we went all da way to neutral bay the first night to eat japanese food!!! soo yummy!!
on monday we went to the city... me and my sis went to see "blades of glory" it was soo good!!! i thought it was soo funny and some parts were just omg... so exciting.. haha, when we came out of the cinema there was like a whole line of people waiting to get into the cinema and we were wondering why... then i checked the board of greater union times and on the top it said "tonight's preview screening of Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix" and i was like omg... i wanted to go... lucky people get to see it before it actually comes out!! they also got souvenirs... we saw them giving them out b4 they go into the cinema...that night we went to a seafood restaurant on sussex st... had like raw lobster!! yummm yummm... then had abalone, crab, etc.. it was soo good... remember the raw lobster wasn't moving then suddenly it had a small spasm... i was like omg!!! soo freaked out by that sudden movement!!! but it was soo funny...
yesterday i had my officeworks interview... i thought i went all right... felt i could've done better cos i noe you should be interacting more and stuff... but there were 2 women in my group that knew each other so they just kept chatting and in the in between activities part where they said just chat among ourselves i feel that we are also marked on that component as well but it felt rude to butt into a convo when those 2 women knew each other and i really had nothing to talk about and butt into what they are talking...so it made me feel bad... also found out that they were interviewing 90 people that day... and only hiring about 24... i was like thats less than a one in three chance... thought i'll have no chance... then when i got home, parents went to blue mountains with uncle and co. while my sis and i stayed at home... played maple and stuff... had nothing to do felt soo good since been nervous and out for nearly the whole week... just so tired... that night we went to Istana the malaysian restaurant in Thornleigh...soo sad... there was no pippis... but the rice was soooo nice!! love their rice every time i go there...
Today has been a long day... we went to Hunter's Valley... didn't really even taste wines this time... just went there for the country feeling and went to this restaurant that had excellent service and food was sooo nice!! the view was beautiful as well... took some photos... ill upload them later...i had nothing to do on da trip there so i listened to my audio book of Harry Potter the first book on my MP4.. after Hunter's Valley we went to "The Entrance" but by the time we got there it was already getting dark so the pelicans were like gone except for a few... still kept on listening to harry potter on my way back...but fell asleep...those are really good in helping you fall asleep seriously... by the end of our trip i was only up to chapter 12 of the book... but the last thing i remembered was like chapter 8... so i fell asleep for 4 chapters... haha.. for dinner we went to a thai restaurant called Doytao Thai in Drummoyne.... been there a few times already.. soo many people but its soo nice!!! i recommend it to everyone reading this!!
been eating soo much for dinner for the past few days always going out!!! soo want home food right now!!! still have to eat out prob for the next 3 days...
just got home and checked my email... haven't turned on my computer for a whole day... felt so weird cos i always turn on my comp as soon as i wake up and turn it off just before i go to bed... was soo anxious when i checked there was an email from coles group saying "job application update" this was what i've been waiting for since the interview yesterday... they said they'll reply within the next 14 days but never expected it to be this quick... haha i opened it but was so anxious so i looked away while its loading and started fixing up my mobile phone cos my uncle was using it today and had to change back the sim card... then i looked at it and it said i was SUCCESSFUL!!!!! i was like screaming up and down!!! im now through to the next stage for the second interview with the store management!!! im one step closer to getting my first job!!! i seriously wouldn't mind working at officeworks!! it looks like a fun place to work at... i love computers and i love stationery!!! *fingers crossed* hopefully ill get it~!!!
Thats all for now... soo excited that i cant type anymore!!!~Labels: dining, employment, holidays, movies
