Hello! It's been a very long while since my last post here. I did take the time to stay out of the crypto-verse and just enjoy my stay in my hometown. I arrived last week in Manila, but I got busy looking for new work because my current work gave me a not-so-merry Christmas and a not-so-happy new year. But at the back of my mind, I'm still not ready to let go of this job.

I had three interviews today - 1:00 PM, 2:30 PM, and 4:30 PM. After the first interview, from Malate, I went straight to Makati for the second interview. I was late for 3 minutes because I got lost in the elevator - took the wrong one. Thankfully, the Singaporean boss had an issue with his car (got towed) so I waited for 15-20 minutes before we started. Then, I hurriedly booked a motorcycle from Joyride so I can go back to Malate for the last interview. What a very hectic…
Yesterday morning, I had a mental breakdown and I felt like giving up. But after some thought, I went up and proceed with the job interviews. The second interview was the hardest one - a panel interview with the Singaporean boss. It was my first time being interviewed face-to-face by five people. My voice cracked several times. It was indeed nerve-wracking. 🥲 I want that job. I'm an electronics engineer with a childhood dream of becoming a doctor, and that position is like a…
The very first office chair I bought was sold today. I bought it for 1,900 PHP with a shipping fee ug 480 PHP, and I sold it for 1,200 PHP only. I only used it for 3 months because boyfie bought this Sihoo Ergonomic Chair for me. I also gifted him a Musso Gaming chair. And now, I told him we should consider selling these two because it's a hassle if we transfer to Cebu and still have these chair. He was like, "That chair has a sentimental value - it's your gift. I don't want…
One job interview is done. That was pretty draining since I had an initial interview last week, then a technical interview today and followed by another interview. I'll be expecting some feedback this week. I said to myself that whoever gives me a job order first, I'll say yes right away.
It's hard, but sometimes, you need to let go. So yes, I'm selling some of my babies. 🥲 I'm still contemplating if I should sell my academic/reviewer books as well.
I received an email regarding the technical exam this week. This means I passed the three interviews, and now I need to pass the technical exam. Pahirapan. Gusto ko nalang maging sunflower, jusmiyo. 🥲 Anyway, I'm currently at Malate because Antoni's Aunts will arrive from France today.
The technical exam made me realize I'm better off doing it from scratch than reviewing and editing the works of others. 🥲 I'm confident with the part 2 exam, but unfortunately, not with part 1. Anyway, Antoni bought coffee drips from our UPD Supervisor, and guess what, she gave me a tablea! Thank you, Ma'am Sar. 🫶🏼
