be like water
i got a call back for a second interview! to be honest i am scared of working someplace new, but hopefully i will be able to keep both jobs until end of summer :)
a big shout out to katy m. because she told me a secret about how to get to grades before they are officially release. unfortunately i don’t think this works after the release date, it’s only for grades that have been put up before the first release day. obviously i still don’t have ANY of my marks because visual art professors like to take their time -_- but i guess this trick will come in handy next term when i have other courses. what you do is you go on the ubc website, and in the search box type in “grad cv”, then use your cwl login to get in there. hopefully your professors have already put your marks up before the first day they’re released, or else you still have to wait.
went to watch forbidden kingdom yesterday. i give it 2.5 stars out of 5! one star for jackie chan, one star for jet li, and quarter stars for both the white-haired witch and the little sparrow girl; they were hot. aside from that, the plot was quite boring. cute, but boring. some parts were funny, but there were also some really weird awkward moments that weren’t necessary. a good film for renting, but i wouldn’t suggest going to the theatre to see it. especially if you’re a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge jackie chan/jet li/martial arts fan; there’s good fight scenes but no satisfaction… well okay maybe the part where they fight each other, but STILL NOT GOOD ENOUGH for moi. bottom line, i think the most amusing thing about that movie was that both jackie chan and jet li were in it. i’m not trying to be harsh, but the star power created this expectation in me and unfortunately it wasn’t met. both great stars, but not so great together because you don’t know who to focus on.
desire to work
i think i need to be physically in a space to decide that i want to go there. that’s a pretty basic statement but it’s the case for today, and when i visited UBC for the first time. I didn’t really want to go to SFU because it was far from my house, but also because i went there for summer camp before and it seemed a bit cramped… all up in the mountain. plus herro, the designer for the building used to design prisons D: i enjoyed UBC’s campus a lot more and it felt made me feel smart just being there, so it was as simple as that when i decided. (stupid, i know)
today i went downtown for my interview with 1800 got junk, and i think being in that space inspired a new goal in me. i wasn’t really focused on wanting to get the particular job i got interviewed for, but i know for a fact i wanted to work there for one of those companies in the big buildings… maybe it’s not as glamourous as it looks, but i know being there will be an important achievement to me. mmmmmmmmmm yeah i am pretty sure if 1800 got junk were to hire one or two of us at the interview (it was a group interview for four people) i wouldn’t get picked. the other people had way more experience (like a decade more experience!) and had better answers. i can’t believe i started talking about old ladies not knowing how to scan photos, but whatever it was my job experience.
BAHHHHHHHHH i don’t know i don’t know… this is just part time… hope i will have better things to say (and show!) when i get interviewed for a full-time (career-type) job after graduating.
that is, if i graduate. WAITING FOR MARKS IS SO PAINFUL D:
man booby shirts
i never thought i would say this. like, ever.
but i think jay chou is kind of cute D: finally warming up to him after how many years? haha
he’s would the nerdy quiet kid in class, i think. i am a sucker for that type. those, and the really really bad ones that i should not ever consider dating but end up liking anyway haha…
i was a stupid girl. i think i am smarter now, oscar is like the quiet nice type and we get along like no other :)
so, this was one of my fave songs from high school… reminds me of the last day of class when we went to river road and had a quiet understanding that this chapter of our life has been fulfilled and ended; we would part our own ways from that day forward.
but the video makes me laugh.. this is the first time i watched it. THE ANCIENT CHINESE PEOPLES ARE SO FUNNIES! especially the guy with the long hair.
furry sweaters + jay chou = wtf hahahahhahahaa
between my friends and i we call those low collar shirts man booby shirts… they were like all the shit for a while for asian guys, i find them very disturbing. WHEN IS IT EVER RIGHT FOR A GUY TO HAVE MORE CLEAVAGE THAN GIRLS?????!!!!!!! WHENNNNNNN!?????!!!!!!!!! :shock:
lols, with mustache.
testing out smilies
just testing out my new emoticons :D they are kind of small :( but they are still cute haha :) this is what the shocked one looks like :shock: and this is what the angry one looks like :mad: and if you are confused you’d use this smiley :?
i think that’s all of them. they can all be found at moumou garden :love:
blog survey time
taken from katy, who took it from lillian.
1. Do you try to look hot when you go to the grocery store just in case someone recognizes you from your blog?
it’s funny how you say grocery store, since i work in one and that’s the most likely place people would bump into me. i don’t really bother with how i look when i’m at work. and i’m sure emma and katy already know what i look like…
