I have an interview tomorrow which will require me to go online and place myself in front of a webcam. I don’t really understand why, but I’m still going through with it. Even in casual online conversations, I always decline with webcam chats because I find it really, really awkward.
But maybe the webcam thingie can allow the HR person to check if I’m cheating on the online exam that I will be taking. Hmm.
Still weird.
Another LJ account. Again. But but but here: that blog is more discrete than the previous. The previous account has my name all over the place. Though people would somehow know that that’s me (when their lurking comes to worst), at least they wouldn’t know at first glance. What the hell am I talking about.
The past months of this year has been both harsh and kind to me. Harsh because I’ve been kicked off by the company where I was for two years and six months. I had this surreal and ecstatic feeling at first, but things changed as days passed (because my separation pay is getting consumed little by little). I feel useless most of the time. So a month after being unemployed, I finally boarded the job hunting bandwagon. I’m still in search for a perfect job (is there such thing?).
Fate has been kind to me though. I have supportive people around me which really made feel at ease at tough times like these. Thank you.
More on my adventures in the next few weeks.
Finally, I’m up for the job hunting challenge. I’ve been to several exams and interviews but I’m not expecting to be hired very soon. Just enjoying the overwhelming experience of answering interview questions in English while thinking in Filipino. Not a very good combination.
On other news, I paid the whole balance of one of my cards.. finally! One more card to go and I’m debt-free!
Some of the plans that are STILL not put into action: jog around UPLB campus, open a new savings account. Damn, that’s it? No long-term plans? Tsk.
Summer’s here. And I’m enduring the daily lethargy from the job hunt instead of enjoying the summer sun at this time. It’s like not having the chance to enjoy gifts on my birthday or Christmas because I’m all grown-up for those stuff. No beaches or pools? That’s too much deprivation.
I suddenly thought of not rushing into getting a job.
Another weekend. There’s so much to do considering the circumstances. Pay day, cloudy day, new coffee shops in town. I’d rather shop than stay here and let the impulse eat me up.
I have done all the computations and prioritized every debt that needs to be prioritized. This gave me a little headache mixed up with a little heartache from the beginning because of the huge amount of tax I saw on my payslip the other day.
The good part is I get to go home and see him, and that complements the tormenting week I had at work and also levels down all the headaches and heartaches.
And for now, I’m shopping. No subject-diversion intended.
