a REAL JOB

after a couple weeks of being a complete and utter blissful bum and graduating with my degreeS, it is probably time for a REAL job.

working at Myers was fun.
got to meet some funky people, learnt a whole lot about electrical and homewares, fashion and how to fold t-shirts properly o.0
but most importantly
i realised that i do love retail BUT it was not something that i found stimulating or challenging.

so during the last 2 weeks, i’ve applied for around 20 serious, corporate, business and degree related, aka REAL, jobs

1
MNG called me for an interview as a Visual Manager, but they were after an actual Store Manager. i was not prepared for that interview, and am not experienced enough, so did not get the position.

this week has been the beginning of a new fitness regime for me and some friends. got Adrian, Dave and Tim to jog with me the other nite and did some occasional gymming exercises another nite too.

okay, so im not that fit - did around 2 jogs around 400m oval and was pretty puffed *blush*
BUT it is the beginning..

so during my weeks off from working, i shall do my best to better myself, my body and my health. about time too. been wanting to do this for ages.. but never got the motivation to get off my bum and start to actually DO it.

it was a beautiful evening
sitting under a pagola by the river foreshore
i watched the nightsky of Perth reflect upon the waters
the world was at peace

with the tranquil sounds of the night
i felt my hair been tugged
i turn around
no one there, just the evening’s breeze upon my face
must be the wind blowing my hair

once again
i go back
to enjoy watching the river pass me by in the night

then
my hair was again tugged
i turn.. nothing.
strange

then another tug!

i run my fingers through my hair
and all of a sudden
something in my hair!

to all the gorgeous people who wished me a Hapi Birthday and spent the day with me..
*big hugs!*

i got my graduation things sorted out yesterday. got the gown, the hat and the *blue* sash. sigh it has only recently began to kick in that i’m GRADUATING! how can it be? the whole life spent so far has been to study and study and more study. and now that it’s all over, what then?! i’m at a complete and utter loss with my career.

walking through Curtin uni for the first time since the last exam was highly reminiscent
i saw the Architecture building, which is like the most unstable one out of entire Curtin
i saw the grass area where we all used to sit and lay and watch the uni-world go by
i saw the computer labs where we all bummed in
i saw Main Cafe.. where we so often ate too much.. while complaining about weight issues
i saw the areas where we used to watch ‘people’ and make judgements on them

im not sure on what to say about myself, so i will just tell you what is going through my mind right now.

i plan to go to China, Taiwan and HK as soon as enough cash is saved. i think that this is something that i need to do for myself. the holiday, and not to mention the SHOPPING!, would be complete and utter heaven, but it would also be a great opportunity for me to explore various career opportunities that may be there.

speaking of shopping, i am a shopaholic. i s.h.o.p at the shops, markets, ebay, friends, online.. donating is a good habit to have, u know.
