Short Chapters in Life

It has been almost 1 and half years since I blogged. So many things had happened and in another four months 2011 will end. I want to be more happy, contented and grateful with what is going to happen, soon to happen and will happen.

A glance at what things that had happened:-

1. I had been in and out of the job
2. I had registered and officially becoming someone's wife, daughter in law and sister in law
3. I had become a private tutor full time and now turning back to part time up to now
4. I had find myself a job and been working since then
5. I had been to Hokkaido, Japan with the co for a week during the winter 2010
6. I had been to Seoul, South Korea for a week to visit the husband

Is that a lot for 1 and half a year.. nope I don't think so.

Demoralize

Period. I know very negative.

Unfortunate

I am looking forward for the interview tomorrow. However, after calling to HR dept was disappointed. They made a mistake. They thought I did not went for the interview last week. For me, I thought they called me for the second interview..

They are still doing the selection for the first round till Jan 5th. From the feedback, it look positive. I am keeping my finger crossed, but as the day gone by, my spirits is getting lower and lower...

I am still hoping for a miracle to happen.......

Drowning

I felt very disappointed as the days go by.. it's bye bye 2009 and hello 2010.

Basically, I do not know what I have done in 2009.
I hate it.

3rd day of unemployment

I had finished serving the last day of the company and here I am ..

3rd day at home, while every one is heading to work.

I woke up about 9 am plus, had breakfast at 10 am plus, send a few emails out, check facebook then went to gym for 4 - 5 hours only 1 hour of bodystep, the rest are sauna steam taking bath, doing nothing , came home about 7 plus, had dinner and here I am facebook, checking email and watching tvb series at the same time....

Seriously worry

In another 3 weeks, I will be officially out of job. Both my parents had already knew about it. Till now, I had been to quite a number of interview and yet neither one of it came back for a second interview. I am getting really worry. If I still do not get a job by end of this month what will become of me?

Every one will not be changing job as most of them are waiting for the bonus before they plan to move on. It's worrysome. I will be unemployed in another 3 to 4 months. What will become of me? I know I shouldn't be discouraged, but I can't help it. Who would ever figure out such things happened? Then again, with the current situation restructuring is not unusual.

I have to have hope that I will get a job soon. Be positive. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. However, I dare not put my hope too high if not I will be very disappointed..

Everyday, I have been wasting my time going to office, seriously doing nothing. Looking left and looking right. Doing nothing. I do not want to go anywhere at all. When I am at home, I just stayed in my room watching tv series. I am really worry.. I am slowly crawling into my own shell and stay in there forever.....

Oh please, I pray to you, please please let me have a job soon... I am depressed.
