Stupidity and depression

They go hand in hand, during job hunting in this economic times. I think economy does play a small role, but I can't really blame it on the economy when others around me are getting invited to interviews, while I am getting dinged left, right and center.

And I feel so stupid having failed a test. Not once, but twice. I don't even know how I did. They don't publish results or let you know your points or marks. But most other people seem to have passed it. Which must mean I am slow or stupid.

Also, I feel maybe I am stupid in terms of picking my locations. Maybe I am picking locations where they are not hiring or where I don't have the language qualifications.

Its difficult not to get depressed at this time, especially when you get multiple dings in a day and you find out lots of others getting interviews. Maybe I need to look at the bigger picture of life and count my blessings.
But seriously, with my personal problems and this, I think I am losing the little faith that I regained.

Disheartened

It's been a tough month for me. Looking for summer internship is difficult in the current economic state. Getting dinged during applications and then during interviews can get a bit discouraging. Still trying to stay positive and see the light.

I need to get up, dust myself and walk along. I know this isn't everything, but it feels like a bit part right now. I can only do what I can and try not to stress over it.

On the flip side, I think I am managing better now than a few weeks ago. Relax! :)
Maybe I should just take my mind off of this and do something else. Something fun! Seriously looking towards Spring Break.

BIG changes

I should update this more often.
Its been almost a month. Waiting for pics!!
Its an excellent day today, though it was a bit foggy and chilly. But very refreshing indeed. So far, L hasn't been cold since we got back after New Year's. And its excellent. Not having to worry about gloves and layers and layers of clothing. A very strange winter indeed. Apparently, Sea isn't so lucky this year.

Interesting thing happened yesterday. We went to Nobu for dinner. Yep, Nobu indeed!! And we were sitting 2 tables away from Kelly. Which Kelly? Osborne. :)
Thats my run in with someone famous.

Alright, back to normal life. The pace of school is picking up quite fast this term, what with summer work search. Hope things go well with me!
:)

New Life after 3 months

Long time no blog! And what changes there have been.
- month in T.
- wedding planning
- weddings of near & dear ones [Congratulations!!]
- relocation x 2 [haha.. yes, I don't take baby steps changes]
- month in L.
- co-hab [strange strange, but adapting well]
- new hectic, busy, fun, crazy life

I don't know where to start. Just this last weekend, when we went out shopping for some home supplies and appliances, I thought to myself "Look at our home expenses!! I must blog about setting home event."
Things we bought:
- DVD player [TV purchase made 3 weeks ago]
- Crock pot [made my first rabbit stew]
- books and school supplies [ damn they are expensive in L.]
- organizers for clothes and shoes
- comfortable walking shoes + business shoes for me

Things we still need:
- bigger fridge [my fridge is currently smaller than my little fridge I had at UW!! so sad]
- toaster oven [can't bake, roast or toast anything now]

Anyways, so yeah.. expenses expenses!!

Life in L?
extremely busy, esp this past 2-3 weeks. So many new faces, so many parties, so much beer. Seriously, I've have more beer or seen more beer consumption in this past month than I ever had in my entire life. :)
Haha... thats not the busy-ness I am complaining about. Well, not exactly complaining. I knew what I was getting myself into when I signed up for school. But with assignments due left and right, tons of pre-class readings, tons of club meetings, I don't have time for much more.
Maybe I just haven't had to read so much in so short a time, everyday for the last month. It takes a little getting used to.
I hope I have time for visiting guests! Yes - you're welcome to visit me, just let me know in advance!

Oh, for those of you for who this applies - Happy Belated Mid Autumn! I had my moon cakes and good chinese food with asian friends!
And I might not come on to blog for another while, so - Happy Cdn Thanksgiving!!
Cheers!!
And take care!

Crazy Busy

Yes, its been a hectic 3 months. I have many side projects going on. It should be less now.
My life has changed quite a bit and will be changing more. I am now unemployed, which means no income, no shopping, nothing. So sad. There were so many sales going on in Sea.

I am going to miss Sea, esp all my friends. It was sad when I had to pack up and leave my place. I drove by a couple of times to view it while I could. Until I couldn't drive there anymore. My little mini. It hurts.
To all my friends in Sea, I love you guys and I will miss you dearly.

Gotta get my act together and start seriously with the next planning phase. I have put it off for a while, but I should get back on it. :)

=))

Happy busy.
4/8/2007.

I need someone to help me with shopping here. :)

I got the fever

McPhee-ver!
Started off with listening to her "Over It" song on radio on the way home from work. I already mentioned she's pretty and her voice is quite good.
Came home and decided to youtube some of her live singing at american idol. She's really good. She's my favorite idol. Don't like Kelly Clarkson or any of the other contestants or winners from any idol season. Until Katherine.

I like her so much I am thinking of buying her CD. I only collect CDs for singers/groups that I really like.
