Speed check

today is look-for-job day! i met up with MJ for lunch before we headed for recruit express at taka hoping to land ourselves a job. The receptionist was a psychic - she saw me and she went
"you're from SAJC right?"
I nodded.
she continued, "ODAC right?"
I freaked out.
"I'm your junior. How can i help you?"
I went on to have the usual interviews, and somehow became quite acquainted with the consultant - samantha. i went through one round, two rounds ... and just when i thought "yes yes the third round..." , i was told i would be "referred". DANG. and so history has it that i became another NEARLY-recruiter. i'd really love to work in that office, sincerely. it is SO my job. i was really low the entire day after that. i'm just wondering if they can get a more suitable person for that job than myself, just because i asked for a renumeration beyond they budget.

We went to a few more agencies and at one of them we were made to do typing speed test on the spot! another agency offered me a 3 months admin job near birdpark. but i just dun like his face. he looks like congjing. we decided to watch BABEL after that, and before i could walk from the ticketting booth to the theater, samantha called me twice to offer me 2 different jobs. she's really sweet i must say, but i declined both because they just weren't suitable. it was a good day out nonetheless.
