It's been quite a busy day for me today. I went for interview this morning and the good news is i get the job; the bad news is i didn't get the shift i wanted. well, i wanted graveyard shifts because the hourly rage is higher than the day shift so that i could earn more to self fund some of my studies.
Apart from that, i was also diligent in looking for new part time jobs. Applied a few again today. hahaha....apart from the pay, its the different experiences that attracted me to try out so many jobs.
i spent almost one third of my day looking up courses and planning my career pathway. wow....everything needs money epecially as an international student, the fees are a pain in the neck man! but...i know i'm gonna work my way to it! :) i know that i couldn't be lazy anymore, or leave things to the last minute. NO!!! i must be hardworking to work my way into a bright future. i think i can see my future for the next three years--work, study, eat, sleep, play! No more dating! that's one thing for sure because i don't have time for that. hehehe....listen first lah...

falling for the guy that i should never fall for
Sounds interesting but sad right? Yeah, i know....This is a guy i knew through a friend of mine. One day, we met by coincidence and then eventually got closer. He is quite a nice guy, nice as in sweet and funny. Unfortunately, he has a girlfriend whom he has been together with for four years already but at the same time he enjoys "laying around" (u know what i mean). Of course his girlfriend doesn't know because she is currently in Japan. I really enjoy having his company because he is fun and he is good at making people happy especially when i am sad. I am very clear that i should not fall for him for two main reasons--1) he has a girlfriend already; i don't wanna be the third party and i don't think i am capable of because i know that he doesn't have feelings for me. hahaha...(lame). 2) he likes to "lay around"; not the kind of boyfriend a girl would ever want right? Are "mischievious" guys more attractive?
It is summer holiday now. So he bought an airticket and flew to Japan four days ago. He will be gone for a month; will be back on the 15 July. The thought of him spending time together with his girlfriend just kills me man! My heart soured at the thought of it. I tried my very best to keep myself very occupied and not think about it. Yeah...that's how it is to fall for a guy that one should never fall for....sour-心酸.......hopefully time could wash everything away... 但愿时间能冲走一切. i have a month time before he comes back! It isn't easy to find the other half who likes and loves you as much as you like or love him/her. Hence, if you do come across one, grab on him/her tight and treasure that half of yours!
In a nutshell, falling for the guy that you should never ever fall for is never wise!

Bak Chang Festival!!!
Wow...so fast already Bak Chang Festival! if it wasn't for my friend to remind me, i didn't even know about it. Mmmm....the thought of the mushroom and pork with salted egg york bak change is simply In addition, there's the small plain bak chang that is eaten by dipping inside the white sugar. Yum yum!!!
Few days back, I received the chocolate and tidbits all the bought from Singapore that my parents sent to me. It isn't little. I really wonder how many kilos i'm gonna put on after finishing all of them. Well, of course I hope i won't be gaining any weight as it is really difficult to lose from 68 kg all the way down to 57 kg. What a victory! I'm proud of myself. HAHAHA....
Today was a busy day for me. I had my period one week earlier than scheduled, which was very unusual. Plus, I realised that I have been dropping lots of hair recently and it freaked me out as I was worry that it could be genetic. Hence, I went to see the doctor this morning. Phew...luckily it wasn't any kind of dreadful disease. The doctor says that my hair is just going through some thinning and thickening phases and my body is making a little bit of changes. That's why my period came early.
Then, i went downtown to the Human Resource Centre to get my Social Insurance Number (SIN). Without it, I won't be able to get any job. Although there were 7 people ahead of me, the officers were very efficient. About half an hour later, it was my turn. Hurray! Finally got my SIN. After that, i stopped by at the St. John Ambulance. I was thinking to register for one of the first aid courses offered. Nowadays, almost every job requires first aid, be it child care, residential care workers to medical workers. Hence, we must always upgrade ourselves in any situation.
I think I would be able to get the job at Wal-Mart. Apart from that, i even search for other jobs to fill up the rest of my time. Like i said before, my aim is to earn lots of money to pay for my tuition fee for the course that i really want to take (AWCP) and for my degree year. Sadly,i may not be able to take up the AWCP anytime soon as I will be fully packed with 5 or 6 courses every semester and the third year will be my practical year. I plan to work one year before continuing for my last year, which will also be my degree year. Reason 1, gotta work first then can apply for PR. Reason 2, after i get PR, tuition fee for the last year will only be one third of what i am paying now so that I could afford it myself; cheap cheap good good. hahaha....after i get my PR, i will take up my degree year part time while working. Hmm...maybe by then i could take up AWCP. Furthermore, i may be able to consider about the associate degree that i am looking forward to right now. Don't understand? Nevermind, I understand. hehehe....
yaya...too long already. gotta sign out and continue on my job application. K lah...that's all for now! Cheers~

updates....back to blogging!
after all the hassles i've been through, i finally got my work permit on Monday. In addition, i managed to pass my job interview. YES!! I GOT A JOB!!! WHAT JOB?? SALES AND CUSTOMER REP!!! Weird eh? Me in the medical field go and become a sales rep! i know i know... well, just wanna try out and get a brand new experience. plus, the pay is high. i wasn't as happy as i expected myself to be after attnding the first day of training. probably because it is not something i am interested in but it is definitely a good try and a great start. I don't want to give up so easily!!!
i have a new resolution. i wanna work and earn money to pay for the tuition fee for the extra course that i wanna take. Animal Welfare Certificate Program. Sounds good isn't it? yeah...after having two naughty hamsters, i realized that i love animals more than anything else. I should have studied veterinian instead of respiratory therapy. however, it's too late to regret now. Therefore, i was hoping that through that 8 month course, i could get a certificate so that i could volunteer for the SPCA in the future. Just a personal interest. apart from that, i was hoping to make more money as i want to take up another diploma or degree or something like that because i don't want to waste the 50 credits i have taken in INTI College.
Talking about money, i really need money now!! I overspent. from CAD$1000+ drop all the way down to $100+. need to pay for my health insurance by July 1st. haven't gotten the refund for my insurance claim. Gotta call and check it out. Furthermore, my new job as a sales rep requires approx. CAD$ 200 as deposit for the set of sample product to promote to the customer. at the end of the three days training program, i need to pay for it. two days ago, i was still frustrated on how to get money to pay for it. however, i miss the second day of training. hence, i need to reschedule it for next week. few days later, dad will bank in money for my hostel fee. MONEY!!! YES!!! there's money to pay for it at the end of the training this coming week. once again, this proves that there's a solution to every problem. everything seems to be pre-arranged by God. "冥冥中自有安排" hahaha.....
Apart from that job, i also went for interview for another job in the pharmacy. after passing the second interview, the reference call and awaiting to finalize everything, problem occurs again. I DON'T HAVE MY SOCIAL INSURANCE NUMBER YET!!! without it, i can't get that job! how le? haiz....monday have to go to the immigration office at downtown to check it out. nevermind..nevermind...don't be frustrated. there's another job interview coming up this coming Tuesday. Hopefully everything will go well and I could get the job. =) SMILE!!! Queenie, you can do it!!! no matter how bad the situation is, life still has to go on!!! 无论如何都要撑下去!!!
Another problem is that I was planning to move out of the place that I am currently staying in. However, I have not found a new place that I like yet. I was planning to stay with a friend.
After breaking up and becoming single again, I am happier than before. I am glad that i made the right decision. SINGLE AND AVAILABLE!!! after some time in Canada, i learn to grow but always stay young at heart. nothing is easy but always be optimistic! Love and relationship is only a small part of life. there are still many other important things in life that are worth treasuring. My goal now is to improve my grades, earn lots of money and lose lots of weight. LOL
