New life as a worker Many things happened to me in the last couple of months. I remember that I wrote about how stressful it is to get a job here in Canada. I was frustrated, stressed out and intimidated during my job hunting because it was a on-going process with my regular full time school schedule. Somehow I managed both of them, kept trying to get it and finally got a job offer from one of the major companies in my major field. Yay! It's been 2 months already as a new worker. Sometimes I'm nervous in a certain circumstances, but I think I'm handling it okay. Being out of crazy school schedule gave a huge release. It's time to take a breath and refresh me. I'm planning to spend more time on working out, walking and meeting people.

happiness It's been a while since I had a real free time not worrying about any of my school stuff. I have been so stressed out because of the Bidding Competition 2016 hosted by TCIC. All econ students should join as it's included in the curriculum which means my instructor will mark it depend on how close the bidding price is to the real one. Whatever the bidding price is, it's finally done and I'm just so glad with the fact that it's done. Also, the weather gets nicer here. Several days ago it was heavily rainy but it is so beautiful and sunny today. All people are talking about weather now. haha. I need to take out my sunglasses to go to bank soon. :) I wish everyone has a good weekend. <3

mistakes I made a terrible mistake today. The story is like this: Currently I'm looking for a job place for my practicum which is mandatory for all students in my program. I met several HR people through a mixer last week. They were looking for students to work for their company as full time or practicum. A few days later I sent follow-up emails attached with my resume. After sending them yesterday, I got a reply from one company asking what kind of specific field I'm interested in for the practicum. When I wrote a reply this afternoon, her company name was mentioned two times. Later when I realized I wrote a wrong company name. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU I'm not sure this is lucky or not, but one right name and one wrong name. Their both names start with 'KI'. Actually the wrong name is the company that my friend is working for now. I guess the name was somehow remained in my brain. I have no appetite at all even though it is almost 9pm. I wanted to kill myself...........so stupid. I feel like she wouldn't contact me anymore. KILL ME. I need some hug. Can anyone correct my writing and hug as well? cry cry

drafting table - 3 The drafting table that didn't seem to be sold was just sold with 100 dollars tonight. HAHA. While having lunch at school today, I got a phone call from a stranger. I picked up the call and said hello in Korean, because there is no one who would call me in English. When he said about table bla bla, I couldn't totally understand what he was talking about and several seconds later, I realized it was about my drafting table that I've tried to sell. I have forgotten my table since I posted the ad. what a busy life... He suggested me 100 dollars without delivery and I was okay with it. I feel great to get rid of my table which takes so much space. Now it is sold, I gotta delete the ad soon.

Going back to school I cannot believe my 3-week winter break is already done. I'm going back to school tomorrow and this last term is going to be for 4 months. Last term means that I can start to make money soon, in other words, financial stability, but also it means I gotta do some job hunting. I'm already nervous about it because I have some weak and strong points that other people(native Canadians) don't have. 1. LANGUAGES I'm not native English speaker, but native in Korean. If a company looks for a bi-lingual applicants who can speak both English and Korean, I would be a high competitor, but in consideration of the fact that I'm in Canada, higher English communication skill is preferentially required in general companies. 2. EXPERIENCES I have a work experience that is related to the field where I try to get in. However, it is in Korea. Hmm, I'm not sure here people will consider about it when they evaluate. I hope they think better of me. I try not to worry about stuff that hasn't happened to me yet, but I cannot help myself sometime. :((

Christmas It is Christmas today. This is a 3rd Christmas for me in Canada. Aw..Time flies so fast. Especially missing my family today. Anyway, unlike Korea's Christmas, here is very quiet. Most shops closed today here. In the morning, I went out to buy coffee as usual and then realized that the whole mall was closed except McDonald. Finally I got there and sat for a while talking to my friend. Not much traffic on the street and less people near the mall. : )) nice! I guess most people are spending their time with their family at home. In Korea, Christmas is one of the biggest holidays too, but it is not as big as Canada's and it's more like a romantic day for couples. I mean..it is not as family oriented as Canada is. For example, I used to hang out with my friends or my ex boyfriend on Christmas. Even though the mall was pretty quiet today, it's going to be a different story tomorrow, because it is Boxing day tomorrow. Mall will be packed with people for sure. Chaos is expected. ha

drafting table Hmm I don't have any specific subject or story to talk about but 'drafting table'came up because I just uploaded a post selling my drafting table that I don't use anymore. I hope to sell this before moving out. This is not an ad by the way. just story about my table. Although I wrote $130 obo on the add. I'm not sure this price is okay price in the market. In terms of the condition, it's in a pretty good condition. I have been keeping this for almost 2 years but haven't used much as the drafting course was only one term. It's a huge table, 43x31 (inch), but good thing about it is that you can disassemble to save up the space when you don't use it anymore. However, now it is assembled because i had to take pictures of this....I'm so lazy to disassemble this...no energy to do that. I wonder why i don't have much energy today...and the answer is I haven't had anything except one coffee this morning. gotta eat some noodle soon. I'm wondering how many people will read this random and non-informative memo but thank you for reading. Also, correcting my poor grammar and awkward expressions would be greatly welcome. Have a great day!
