Last Blog of 2007

Feeling : Excited O.o

Listening to : J Holiday – Bed

Shout Out : Happy New Year fellas!!

Wanna put my fingers through your hair… I'ma put u to bed… bed… *swoons* I like J Holiday. Only in bed. I MEAN the SONG. =)

Cheekiness aside, I would like to blog at least stg coz I realized I left my blog too long in the pool of cobwebs, much too long… Fear NOT my damsel, I mean blog-sel in distress, I shall save u from this treacherous mountain of isolation…

*wards off dragons of ignorance*

*sword-fighting with the evil Lord Busy-ness*

Aha… I finally reach my beloved blog-sel at the top of the tower... my angel… lying there on the crimson bed, rose petal surrounding her luscious body, looking so breathtakingly beautiful… I move closer... staring at her sleeping so peacefully... darling blog I shall plant the kiss of life unto u… MMMUUAAKKKXXXXX

Whatever this is so sick… LOL...

I will tell of the adventures of charm in some other blogs, but for now, let me just bask in the final moments of year 2007. Silence as charm contemplates… oh what the crap am I saying… let's go out and partaayyy… woohooo…

Londoners, see ya in Westminster !

Interview Post-Mortem

Interview was alright. Did I just said alright? I actually meant it was CRAP on my side. Sigh dun say d la... Neway the whole thing was divided to assessment & interview. The assessment was like these…

1. Essay pick 1 out of 5. Crap almost everyone else did the 1^st one, "Describe a situation where u showed leadership skills blablabla n what did u learn from it". I pulak did the one that says, "The stand against job-hopping generated different views from employers n employees alike. State your view on the matter blablabla." I hope being different gives an advantage, though I can never be too sure about stg.

2. Maths questions… more on a particular company's performance n us calculating fairly ok stuff. Only problem is time pressure.

3. Analyse the passage and state whether the inference given is true, false, or not enough info to say. Very tricky n again time is the essence here.

As I only have 2 hours of sleep the nite before, honestly, I was so blur and worn out I went home and sleep for an hour before the next session. On the bus home though, I almost had tears coz every other contestant seemed so professional & intimidating, leaving me to look childish and immature. Almost all zee girls have their make-up on. Right on charm. Stupid of me to think that natural look will potray a better outlook. Duh charm. We're judged by looks.

Ooh ooh 1 thing that made me happy when I reached home was that I receive 2 christmas cards n a Christmas gift by special delivery. Thank you Junnie & Melissa for the thoughtful card and Kam Hoe for the wonderful pink heart-shaped chocolate gift-box. I LOVE PINK N I LOVE CHOCS!

We were talking about sleep. Yes. After waking up n lunch I then put some light make-up on, feeling confident a bit, and then head on to bond street to shop with Rahim & Yan. Hahaha shopping (look-see, not buy) few hours before the main interview to release tension from the intimidating board room.

Interview was hmmm challenging yet informational. My interviewer told me lots of stuff and I did learn new things so it's cool. Though I felt I wasn't matured enough to give professional answers, especially on the Northern Rock issue.

All in all, this interview open up my outlook on different things and I definitely learned some stuff that I never knew before… Plus I did have fun at the place and meet so many new friends that are sweet and lovely… Now I have more reason to go to Lancaster, Nottingham & Manchester =)

It's definitely an experience of a life-time!

Charmster is Back

Feeling : All mixed up I guess

Listening to : 2 clocks in my room ticking… tickety tick

Study : Did I mention I had my last paper today? Make that yesterday!

Phew… it's all over… ACCA exams are all finished! At least until the results are out anyway... ( Fingers crossed ).

Moving on to my next move : MASS COMM !!

Hobby la I mean. I got hellova nagging from dad when I told him I had wanted or maybe just thought of contemplate switching fields.

Neway, post-exams fun fun fun begins! Typical of Charm to plan a whole list of stuff to do after the exams… Which she never even bother doing from past experience XD. Ok la now it's different coz she's a big girl now. And when u plan something, you have to work on it and not just sit around waitin' for the idea to collect dust, drifting away to never-land…

I should be excited but now I'm so worn out due to only 5 hours of sleep for the past week. I just opened my inbox and got 3 replies from PwC. One stating I got the call-back for an interview this sat. It was from PwC Human Capital Centre, asking me to scan my ACCA, CAT & SPM (O Levels) results and send to her wo...

Hmm wish me all the best fellas... coz i know too little about interviews and too much about un-related stuff... =D

Okiez me go pack now.. Oxford is waiting for me...

Hmm I should be rejoicing a lot for everything but today, I'm just a bit annoyed, a bit frustated, a bit confused, a lot of burden, a really whole lot of tiredness and an even much more lot of wanting-to-go-home-coz-my-church-is-organizing-a-Christmas-ball-where-u-get-to-dress-up-as-a-celebrity-and-there's-gonna-be-emmy-awards-etc-so-it's-gonna-be-so-friggin-fun-coz-my-youth-so-rock-the-world.

Other than that, I'm alright... Sleepy... Nitezz

Time Off

Feeling : Stressed like siao

Listening to : Vanessa Anne Hudgens – Say OK (But I'm not sobz)

Study : Realised I'm way behind than where I thought I was

Dear beloved readers….

Charm is gonna take a break from blogging…. For about 2 weeks…. Make that 1 n a half…

By then, exams will all be over n we can kiss ACCA goodbye! Hopefully la for my case. N those taking the final ones.

Today was Question Based Day for P2 Corporate Reporting. It was friggin bad I almost had tears at the end of the day. ( Ok I actually did when I finally reached home n collapsed on the bed ).

Amit was here for the QBD as well. Thank God he was here to chat with me bout other stuff to get my mind off studies a bit. Boogie woogie dance ( hope I get the spelling right ) seems cool =) . He was such a great big help in advising what I should do at last minutes like these and which questions I should try out n about time discipline. Thanks heaps =) If only we had this discussion on say, Aug or Sept. Or even Oct. Maybe things would turn out better. But now… sigh… Neways thanks once again for the pointers!

Ok I'm staying online much longer than I've allowed myself. Better go now… to all my bloggie friends…. Esp trish & jess… see u peeps after zee exams…. Woooop

Muakx love ya all
