New Motivations
I mentioned two blogs about finding a job. So far, I was able to land three interviews but I’m pretty sure I haven’t been selected for one already. So much competition, so much frustrations and so much disappointment. I want a good paying, good environment and good learning experience job! There’s still time though… not going to give up yet.
All of this interview talk led me to revamp the site! If you followed my previous blogs before, you’ll know that I always change up my themes, probably at least once every month! I’m just always looking for a new look. Here it is! I was going for an elegant feel.
I just wanted to blog something today… but I really don’t have much to say. Going to the mall tomorrow though! Will blog tomorrow…

19th Birthday
This year’s birthday, I didn’t expect much. I was away from home, and university isn’t a place where you see everyone everyday. Also, everyones probably busy! My birthday was on a Thursday, that’s pretty much in the middle of no where. Last year, I didn’t celebrate much of it either just because it was close to exams and I had a piano exam right on the date. So this year, I didn’t expect much. Of course, being 19 means I’m legal now so that’s pretty exciting!
Secretly, I wanted a surprise. Maybe, someone would be sweet enough to surprise me. I’m that kind of person who expect a lot, but at the same time, I won’t let myself get my hopes up. It’s a complicated thing haha, but to sum things up, I just don’t like to be disappointed.
I was spending my Wednesday night finishing up my calculus homework, researching on printing companies to print some business cards, when my friend messaged me on Skype telling me to go over to her room to catch a spider (believe me, this is a regular thing). It wasn’t a surprise to me either that she messaged me at 11:58pm because she’s messaged me at 2am before to catch a spider haha!
Pretty much, a bunch of my close friends planned a party for me! I was very touched because no one’s ever done something like this for me. It was actually a successful party. They planned it so well! I don’t have many memorable birthdays, so I think this one tops my 14th birthday which I thought would be the best one yet!
The End :)

Growing Up
When I got my first part time job in 2010, I truly believed that it was a stepping stone in growing up. I was earning money, I was bussing to work, my parents trusted me more and I demonstrated that I was independent enough to balance school and work! Before that, I really wanted to go to a school out of town to be more independent, but closer to the date, I felt like backing out. It’s a good thing I didn’t, because I have way more opportunities here and I’m ready to take these obstacles on.
I’m looking for a job now, and not just a part time job such as a sales associate. I am finally going to pursue a job in computer science. Right now, due to my lack of experience, I can’t really go far but I’ll work my way up. Cross fingers that I won’t have to panic about this in a month… that’ll only mean that I’m still struggling to find a job.
I want to learn more programming languages and hopefully my experience with just HTML and CSS can land me positions.
I am looking for housing! It may sound like a big deal, and it may not… I would say I’m pretty neutral. It was difficult, but we pulled through and found a house to live in next year. The finance part however, is a bit hard to take in, but same goes for tuition, so whatever.
Boring post.
