Job Hunting
who knew looking for a job would be so difficult?i didn't know... i thought i would just make the call to chiltern and they'd want me just like that.it wasn't as easy as i thought... far from it.went to an interview at brightstar on tuesday. a childcare centre opened by my church. the supervisor was nice, very young and pretty. but the interview was tough. an hour of grilling, non-stop questions mostly about classroom management. she was very concerned about my youth and inexperience. these are the two factors that are against me right now... and most fresh grads. have no idea if she'll offer me the job.so i called the principal of chiltern when i got home from the brightstar interview. she told me she would help me check if there are any vacancies at the other branches. this is the time when contacts really matter. sometimes you just need that extra push to get your foot in the door. now i'm actually leaning more towards the job at chiltern cause the expectations at brightstar are too high. i'm not sure if i'm up for the challenge.well, we'll see... its all in God's hands... His grace will bring me through this time. Think big! His Favour is upon me! words received from leaders in church recently. messages from God that i really need now.had a spring roll party at evan's place today. she cooked the veggies and we wrapped the spring rolls. was a spring roll factory for a while. free labour! but we got to eat the spring rolls after we wrapped them. it was yummy! we watched tv for a while after lunch then our butts got itchy and we made our way to jurong point. found out that edwina is a "my lovely samsoon" fan too... haha... so glad i found a samsoon buddy. we talked about it on the train ride to jp. the actors are so cute! fantastic show... we went shopping at jp, walked around and bought watever we liked. i bought a collared shirt and a pair of keds shoes. good shopping trip. =)
