遇見

I never thought I would see that person again, 想不到能遇見.
We chatted for awhile, however it felt strange and awkward. We were both very surprised, since we haven't contact each other for around 5 years. More clearly, i think its after my "accident", i felt that i don't really belong to that group of people anymore because i kind of felt i was being isolated and betrayed. Now, I did became more maturer, therefore, 吃, 喝, 玩, 遊戲人生 is not what i want to do anymore. Although there is still no luck on job hunt, so i guess its time to switch to Plan B.

22

2009 is almost over. Turning 22 on October 29. Hope on my birthday will have some good news on the interviews la. Otherwise my plan for next month is to find an internship, at the same time a whatever part-time job to solve my financial problem.

Had a spectacular night at Moxies. Since we waited a long time for the table, so we got an appetizer for free!!

金剛經



遇了險
猶如煉金般怎麼怕猛火燒
沒人仰望還是未有動搖 
負傷衝上雲霄

Interviews

Its been 2 months since i started mailing my resume and cover letter to Design firms. At the end of August, I had the privilege to have an interview with one of the top interior design firm in Toronto. However, there is no word from them after the first interview (although they said they would like to have a second interview with me). Still, after this experience, I learned alot about what to prepare, the type of question they are asking and what they focus on the most during interview.

Its been awhile since my last interview in August. Yesterday, after my trip to GZ, I received a phone call from an Interior Design Firm ^.^ Also, there was a firm contacted me while i was away and now we are trying to rearrange another time so we could meet. Seriously, I never thought they will reconsider me since i was in GZ when they contacted me. Lucky!!!

So, i guess i will be busy this weekend for interview preparation, getting my letter of recommendation from Jeremy (my Thesis prof) on monday and Interiview on Tuesday.

Back in Toronto

Back in Toronto. Tired and still having a little jet lag. 3 weeks in GZ is definitely not enough. Well, next time i go back, i will probably going to stay for at least one month.
Things that are common in GZ:
  • "炒花蟹" is the most common greeting phrase
  • lineup?! what's that?
  • talk and laugh loudly like they own the restaurant
  • enjoy gathering with family and friends, solving their problems and knowing each others business
  • crossing the road fence like 劉翔
  • smoking in the mall
  • staring at ppl
  • and many more ... ...
