What a Week!

Yes indeed. This was one tough week. At the start of the week, I found myself alone again coz my cousin went to Manila for the Bar Exam. Then I received email from UEA telling me that my application for the studentship was not successful. I tried to finish my TESOL course online. I still had 3 modules to go.

But lo and behold, during Saturday lunchtime, I received a call from Sykes in Mabolo. They asked me to come for the exam. Then I went through the HR Interview and the Final Interview. I was hired!

We were supposed to start last Monday, 31 August with a training first, 2-10pm. But when I saw the compensation package from the contract, I knew it wasn't for me.

I finished my TESOL on Monday, 31 August and I'm now seriously looking for a job.

I signed up to soooooo many job sites. I'm confident I could find that new stable work soon. I keep the faith! :)

2009

2009 has passed so I wanna assess how my year went.

Actually I wanna say that it is 4yrs after I went to NUS. I was having a very hard time then. But I met very nice friends there and they kept me going. I had an Indian and a Filipino circle of friends in SG coz my 2 flatmates were from India.

Anyway, at the start of 2009, I went to Legazpi City, to work in Fr Jovic's NGO. I only lasted 4months then. Umuwi rin ako ng Cebu. I stayed there for a while. Akoy kusinera ni Dondon who was reviewing for the bar exams. I was asked to interview diay in DLSU but I didn't go in the end. Then in early October I asked my coordinator in Western if I could go back. She eventually said yes so I came back to Phnom Penh in October 2009.

I spent my Christmas holiday in PP. My sister and I were busy man pud with our charity event, Ex Dono so la kaau nako mafeel that I missed the Christmas spirit this year.

That was how my year went. I survived it! And I'm still in PP!
