Gallo is having sales now and they just launched their new collection that contains really pretty designs. For some reason, the designer behind this brand never fail to come up with ideas that attracts people. This time round, it is their autumn/winter collection that caught my eyes. Have to save up some money to get some pretty clothes (= .
To be honest, there's really nothing much to blog about these days considering the fact that I am not doing much besides bumming around. Went back to KL AGAIN for yet another interview. This time round was for Gagan ( The company that manages Zara, Massimo Dutti, Bershka and Pull and Bear) . I would love to work there if it wasn't for the crazy long hours. Imagine working from Monday to Sunday 10am-10.30pm. I even have to work during the public holidays). It really is fine if they pay well but they don't. So yeah, turned down another job. I hope that I won't be regretting this. *sigh* I'm back at square one. Jobless girl.
I really don't want to moan and groan about all of these but it really is quite annoying because people out there do ask me if I have already found a job. It's not about being able to find a job but to find something that I can picture myself doing. I have my own reasons for turning down some of the companies that offered me jobs.
On a lighter note,
In between the trip, I went for the Authur's day event which was quite a let down after hearing many good reviews on the previous ones. The location was bad and the performances was not that great as well. Ok lets just say that I am also not a big fan of outdoor events .
Me and long legs before the event.
Hopefully the Heineken Green Room one will be much better. It's at KL live. So yay! Managed to win five tickets from Fashionvalet. I am also going for the Rockaway concert.Plenty of stuff to look forward to in the coming week.
I'm quite comfortable with what I have and the people I hang out with at the moment. Not complaining because everyone is treating me well. I can be stubborn or a little sensitive at times but I mean no harm. haha It's probably just the usual "pms-ing" period that I do strange things pfft. I usually have mood swings when my stomach don't feel that well.
Enough with the ranting.
This is such a beautiful rendition of the song !

My whole trip to KL was an eye opening one. It was the different kinds of job interviews and the people I met or meet up with that made me feel like I have experienced so much within just a short three weeks time
I went for the longest interview which lasted for a whole day. The wait for each session was quite torturous. I was quite nervous for this one because it is a big international company. Spoke to so many people on that day itself and learnt a lot. I am quite proud of myself for being able to last until the final round. I am keeping my fingers crossed on getting the job. I have gone for various interviews for different kind of companies. I must say that what excites me the most would have to be the retail industry. The fashion industry is what I have always wanted to get myself into ever since I was a little girl. Fashion, designing and colours makes me happy. What makes it difficult to pursue this career would have to be my mum being very sceptical about it. She talks to me about working for major companies in the IT or media industry. My dad did not say much about it but deep inside, I know that he really wants me to look for something big.
Having said that. I am still going to go for what I feel is best for me.
I have learnt a lot from all the interviews that I went for and meeting different kinds of people. There are plenty of people out there with excellent academic records but I guess at the end of the day, it really is about how people present themselves and how they impress the interviewers. I think that having the passion and being able to convince the interviewers that you are willing to dedicate time and learn is important.

♥ K a r i n a ♥
I'm still getting used to being back here for a long period of time. Things and the people sure have changed quite a lot. Coming back home feels good but I really am trying to get used to these changes. I miss how I used to be close to some of my friends. It feels like they have drifted further away from me. I guess this is how life works. Nothing stays the same forever.
The parents have been pestering me with the whole job hunting thing. Not that I am not applying and going for interviews. I am just waiting for the job that I could foresee myself doing and would feel passionate about. Hopefully that will come along soon.
Other than that, everything has been great. I am spending most of my time with the family, friends and the mister.
Baby Josh and Christina have both been such darlings to me when I am back at home (Cutest duo ever!) It feels nice to just play and bond with the both of them.
I am with long legs most of the time. The both of us have always been really close since young. I'm glad that things are looking real good for her. Daddy and mummy have also been pampering me and boy I sure am feeling all the love at home.
It's also great to see Booger again. She's already a working woman. It's back to us just like old times sharing everything in the world.
Relationship's doing great as well. *coughs* besides getting bullied most of the time hoho.
I put on weight haha. Happiness overdosed from all the love I get from the people around me (=
hahaha This is how my brother looks like every single morning. He is shooo cute when he just woke up from sleep. Super blur. =D
