Just a Day, Just a Very Stormy Day

My new phone I bought it at Ever Gotesco. Technically not new since it's second-hand. Nokia 1100 priced coincidentally at Php1,100.

Leandro Okabe is the latest love of life. Brazilian-Japanese, two hot races in one! I dare you to search for him in Google Images.

Talaga Lang Ha

"Our interview team was unanimous in their opinion that you will have a very successful career with [Prospect Future Employer]. You have all the qualifications we are looking for in our people, and with the rapid growth of our business, your opportunities should be unlimited..."

The cue to write my resignation letter. How to?

I resign.

Ungratefully,
Bitch

Please delete my cellphone number in your phonebooks. I got snatched in the MRT. Along with my phone stolen was my wallet, inside it my keys, some cash, my ATM card, and my SM Advantage Card! Good thing my SM Card was still the temporary one, but I grieve for all the purchase points I'd have to forgo for the
meantime. Haha.

This happened while I was on my way for the final interview. Imagine my horror! The embarrassment, the stress, the trauma! I apologize to man
ong tsuper for my free-riding. I apologize to Katty as well for the inconvenience of lending cash to me. I am sorry and I thank you. Tear.

As for the interview, in spite of all that had happened, I w
as more calm and confident. I will know the result within two weeks. But how they will contact me? Hmm.

Prospect Employer did it again: setting false expectations. The second interview, as it turned out, wasn't the final one. Oh well, the gall of me to complain when I'm the one so desperate to get in the company. Anyway...

I was waiting inside a tiny room for the interviewing panel of three. Only two came in. One was this lady who seemed to be a UP graduate (she understood the shit I was blabbing about my shifting from BAA to BA) and the other one, a male shengwa, who sounded like an ex-pat (whom I later found out is Chinese and is the site director). All was going smoothly when in the mid part I had a me-and-my-big-mouth moment: I mentioned that I didn't pass the online assessment. The conversation halted and they asked for a quick moment. They skimmed through their papers (probably my profile) while I, with my head slumped and my eyes glued on my clammy palms, thought, "Way to go, idiot. You just ruined your chance." After a minute that seemed to be eternity, they apologized for the confusion and they resumed asking questions. I am one lucky bitch!

I stayed in the lobby after the interview to wait for Katty. We had a short chat. I looked at my cellphone: two missed calls from the HR contact person. I requested the receptionist to have her (HR contact person) on the phone. She scheduled my third, and hopefully the final (as she confirmed), on Tuesday. Eez deez reelee eet?

Deez Eez Eet

What do you know, I passed the first interview. Unbelievable. This would be the farthest that I'd go so I'm taking now the opportunity to brag about it even before I make a fool out myself on Friday. Dandandandan, it's my final (panel, nyay) interview on Friday. Last chance, now or never.
