A pHoNe CaLL

Gee... was happily chattin on the phone wif my dearie... and a second line beeped thru... unfamiliar no. but was wondering if it might be important, thus got off wif him n retrieved the second call.

"Hello. I'm Sandy from NLB..."

NLB...!!! NLB... = National Library Board

I was juz abt to get all worried and yet excited as today was the dateline of the 2 weeks tat Sandy had earlier spoke of. I had an interview on Monday, 8 Aug and she did mentioned I should get a call from her w/i the nxt 2 weeks if nt I'll b gettin a letter to state tat my interview and application was unsuccessful.

Worried as it's gonna be another journey of job hunting... which I have been embarking on. Plus if it's gonna be as preferred by the head of panel of interviewers tat day. They gonna place me in the New Reference Library @ Bugis, which means I'm gonna have to work on Saturdays n Sundays = no time to spend with my DEARIE.... omg....

Excited as it's gonna mark the end of my no $$ to spend days....

"I'm calling to see if you're still interested in the opening of the Library Officer." said Sandy
She called to tell me that the panel has come to a decision and is interested in roping me in as a Library Officer for the New Reference Library.

aiyah... mind confused... dunno wat to write... spoke to Serene and Ian. They're both happi for mi as I've found a job... but y m I still frowning as I'm writing tis... sigh.... guess u might guess it n they both knew.... no mood to continue nw... gonna go out for appt soon.... maybe come bk refreshed will continue with the phone conversation n the part which made it difficult to make my decision...

over n out

Yawn...

Haiz... been looking 4 a job since Aug 1... nw oni NLB got back n asked mi to go for interview on Monday, 15 Aug.

my 'Sa Gua', heard tat if I really joined NLB and being posted to community libraries, i gonna haf to work on Sats n Suns... he painicked... ekek... at first still very supportive... say wat... "go lah, y dun join NLB, u sure can get in wan rite? den no nd to fred over jobless lor..."

Nw I confirm go try my luck, told him of my 'workin schedule' den guess wat he say... "beta go find those admin jobs u were lookin at"... ekek....

seriously, at times... i was wondering if i did the right move. by leaving DYSS so hasely or was it not a carefully thought thru decision tat i've made since june... for almost 2 weeks nw... i've been doin nothin except lookin for jobs online and surfin my emails n chattin occassionally and keepin my dearie company...

as i'm typin these... he lays dere, slpin like a baby.... totally different from the guy i saw tis mornin whom juz returned from a night of work and toil... it's been two full nites of work and today i can really see he's exhausted from it... poor boy... workin so hard to gain recognition and to earn more $$ to form his rugby team.... hehee...

no worries, we'll work hard together and get thru tis... rugby team.... maybe lah... ekek...

Play Lah Play somemore PC games... or watever games....
