I'm employed once again!

I was so happy, elated and excited that it totally felt like I received the letter of offer from NTU again! The adrenalin rush is so overwhelming!

I totally could forgive my hard disk for dying on me!

This job was totally unexpected, coz the second interview was the formidable lady interviewer and I didn't feel like I performed that well. Still, I'm glad that they decided to give me a chance and offer the job.

It is like how an unrequited love being requited!

Ever since I graduated last year, I totally shunned the software engineer jobs, coz I don't think I like it. But then, to be a network engineer, I have to start from bottom low, which was totally unexpected, coz I expect my degree + CCNA to give my a jumpstart, you know? Anyway, life work in a miraculous way, they more you run away from it, the nearer you get.

After I left JNJ, I was hitting nails for my job hunt. So, I went to pray, where my aunties said very zhun and I told the gods, please please please, let me find a suitable job, a good job, a nice job. And it so happened this job was the first interview I went after after praying. And really miraculously, I was informed of a second interview, 4 hours after my first interview. I really believed the gods heard me. I had thought that I behaved like a monkey in front of the 5 panels for the first interview. So a second interview was totally unexpected. Furthermore, I met the formidable lady interviewer again in the second interview. I saw my chance evaporated.

A lot of thoughts passed through my mind during my jobless period, "How? No money already", "Haiz, cannot buy", "Dunno can survive till when", "Guan Yim Ma, did you hear my prayers?"

And the job came to me like a beacon of light. It seems like 冥冥中自又安排。越觉得不可能发生的事， 竟然发生了！Dun want to believe also cannot.

Of course, I shall prove to myself that I could actually be a software engineer! A good one too! There were many times when I thought I can't make it, but I did. So shall this time too!

And you know, it's a good karma! Because I am happy that I got a job, so I want to buy some food home as a mini celebration. I happened to be in PS, coz I was actually there for a interview, but then, after some twists and turns, the interview was pushed to Mon and then after that, I had to cancel it coz I accepted the job offer. Then I remembered this roasted shopin PS Kopitiam, opened by the Mediacorp actor whom my Mum like very much. So I decided to buy from there. And because I went there, I saw the actor! So star struck!

Must make use of the opportunity to take picture right? I was telling him how much Mum likes his show and called every guy she saw "Machi Boy". I forgot to shake his hand after the picture, but then he already had his arm around me, who cares about the handshake? Mu ha ha ha!

Damn it, his face is so small compared to mine!

Back to my hard disk. No more heartwreching about those files, but still, need to bitch a bit.

I knew my current portable hard disk was near the end of its life, that was why I wanted to transfer the files over to the new one when it died. Suay lor. Managed to revive it for 10 minutes by putting in the fridge for about 30 minutes, but it wasn't enough for me to transfer all the photos over. The hard disk still runs when connected, but the drives just refused to show up.

Bo bian lor, 2008 is photoless year for me. and 2008 is so full of wonderful memories!

Maybe can hog friends who had my photos. =D
