great! so after a little pushing, JTC is finally going to say something abt my aplication status! and she jus called jus now to ask how proficient i am in MS office progs. and she say i may have to work in kallang. well, it really is quite a way off n far but hey, for scholarship, i'm okay lah. i mean, being a non-singaporean and only spore PR, it already puts me at a disadvantage for scholarship. so having worked in jtc b4 will boost it. i know i sound crazy but i dun really care. lol. anyway, jus went for interview. thanks to wh for calling while i was on the way there. soothe my nerves and also had a good short chat. and wah..trying to trick me tat you are frm createtalents eh? haha. and thanks for checking out the company for me. and informin me abt the portfolio thing. haha. i jus knew you'll be such a good fren! i mean, when i wrote that entry ytday, i knew you'll be offerin yr help to check out it's genuineness! you rock! so interview went alright. a finanace assistant job. suppose to cover someone who went for maternity leave for 3 months. well, it'll be quite a responsibility i have to carry but hey, i dun mind accepting the challenge. well, i was quite quiet during the interview. hehe. dunno why also. so guess i never really did leave a lasting impression to her? hmm. oh well. i not say desperately wanting that job. the only desperate job i want is frm JTC. haha. oh oh! jus now, there was an EXCEL TEST!! i din even know. when one guy said "test", i heard it as "desk". after making him repeat 2 times, i jus simply nodded my head though i still cannot understand wad he's saying. only when he led me to a desk with a laptop and a paper then i realised. so i am supposed to churn out the whole spreadsheet on the excel prog, plus fill in the blanks for some totalling up or subtractions. and i had to stare and flip through quite some time b4 i understand how to do it and fill in the blanks. at first, i tot i nid to use some economic knowledge and calcuation which i totally do not have. but thankfully, he pointed out that it's stated on the paper. so then, i set off on this task to complete it in 35mins! it wasn't too bad. i went on. but towards the end, about 10 mins to the end, i started to work faster. but everything went well. even doing the minor details lyk fitting it into page. and i know how to use the formula! =)later on, at the interview, the lady who saw my spreadsheet said it wasn't too bad :) i hope it also means i din make any major errors! earlier on in the day, grandma and i went to the shop at beauty world! she went to get clothes while i went to get skirts! it was nice! i tried on close to 10 working skirts lor. haha. it was fun and a first-time doing it! so took umpteen pics at the fitting room to show my mum who met us at lunch time. well, in the end, i got this nice grey skirt that i wore to the interview and another long green skirt. the skirt length reaches to my ankle at one corner! it's a sloping skirt btw. look at the pics below! thank you mummy for buying them! oh oh. and yes. grandma did buy a shirt. part of an exchange of clothes...
