The Unemployed Bummer... ...

Has finally gotten her arse, or should it be fingers moving, and with updates to my resume (Special thanks to K.H. for being such a sweetheart for editing my resume so that it would sound better! :) *HeaRts*) , I have gotten pretty swift replies from the e-mails that I have since sent out (I thought I sent out few e-mails...Finger and toes were more than enough a figure! Go figure! *Pun Intended*) so much so that...



My day's packed later...!

(Ive since been shortlisted for 8 jobs...Is it just me or is the economy really improving?)



The papers paint a bleak picture though...GST's set to increase till 7% from next month {Just after "The Election" last year...! Coincidental or otherwise? You decide! :P }, property prices are at an all-time high since the good old days of 1995... It's sure gonna crash and burn soon...Water and electricity rates usually increases in the summer months of Singapore (SMART!), ERP (Electronic Road Pricing) rates are increasing, so are the papers to own a car...AKA, Certificate of Entitlement (COE)...




So many acronyms! *Laughs*




Ive digressed...! My apologies...! :P




And out of the eight, Ive got my eyes on this very interesting job...



Well, its desk-bound, but its in the heart of town; which means lunchtime shopping and more shopping after working hours! *Laughs* Plus, it'd sure look good on my resume should I snag the job... =)



I haven't been to an interview in eons...! 3 years odd...! It used to be moi doing the interviews occasionally, when everyone's busy; But the ball's now on my side of the court! *Laughs* At least I know what questions to expect but K.H. says some of my answers can come off as sounding a lil' too cocky in the Asian society that we live in... *Sigh* It would have been "confidence" in another part of the globe though! =P



{I just realised that I dont have real formal wear for interviews and what-nots, ie, more formal functions...First impressions or that very first twenty seconds do count! And I dont have real formal pointy-toed heels in black! Well, I do have them, but they're not that formal...Oh well...More shopping soon then...! My bday pressie of vouchers from Aldo from Dearie Pearlyn Bubbles and Co does come in handy! But I shall wait until the Great/Lousy Singapore Sale's over...Cos that's when the new stock arrives... =P }




Wish me luck!






*HeaRts*
