Mind wandering...
You know when you have too much time at hand, you’ll start to let your mind do some wandering on its own, and you start to think that you are actually thinking a tad too much.
I woke up this morning (or to be more exact this afternoon), yes I practically sleep past 12 noon EVERY day. HAHA. Sucks actually, cause you really feel like a pig when it’s the consecutive 3rd week that you’re able to sleep in everyday. But time is running out, as I count down to D-Day. How I look forward to work. Truly.
My dear b**ch just replied to my mail, and said she’s proud of me being able to find a job in such a short period of time. Well…my thoughts on this are split. On one hand, I’m glad I could get settled down pretty much fast. On the other hand, I was thinking am I being too sloppy in my job search? There wasn’t like too much trouble with preparing the resume and cover letters. There was not much of sweat shed over this whole job seeking process. Perhaps it was because the pain and terror was divided neatly into phases during the course of this last academic semester. I remembered sending out the resume and stuff somewhere during Chinese New Year. The company took like ages to reply to me. “Only shortlisted candidates will be notified”, I remembered that clause in that online application vividly. So when they did not “notify” me of anything at all after almost 1.5 months, I started to panic. Because I was pretty much confident that I could at least secure that teeny weeny chance of having an interview. So I started “whining” to all my friends that “HOW?! NO CHANCE ALREADY! BOO…” Fortunately, that phone call finally came. And thereafter everything just fell in place, a placement test, an interview, a health check. The wait after each process was arduous and painful. But I’m glad it’s over. Truly.
Although I’m still paranoid about my health checks and stuff, but it seems that I’m on my way to work now. It seems so surreal. So so surreal. Especially when this was what I’ve been wanting to do since secondary school days. It was during that secondary school days when I really love watching the current affairs programs on tv, and I was always touched by the stories, thinking about how little do I understand about this country that I live in. And I thought “I wish I have the chance to do this one day”. Now it almost seems like I’m going to fulfill this aspiration. I’m excited. Perhaps things wouldn’t be a rosy picture when I get in, perhaps it would be a shit hole like what others in the line has said. But still I reckon it’s a platform after all, for my dreams to be fulfilled. Do my best, do my best.
As you can see, the mind’s been occupied with all things about the new job. But there was another thing on my mind too. Haha. Just yesterday, I was at the train station waiting for dearest roomie for our movie date. And since yesterday was Friday, the station was crowded, packed with many many people. Then a random thought just struck me, and I started taking out my handphone and typed “When will I see you again? When will I ever get the chance to even know you?”
It was meant for whoever. Some stranger that I would like to meet one day.
It was just so silly.
