Da Lian,China – day 4 (25/11)

Couldn’t really sleep well last night, my skin is itching pretty much and start getting red spots, but it wasn’t any big deal to me, just apply a lil medicine and the cold air here just ease off the itchiness.

Woke up at 8am,ate my breakfast, got dressed up and goes off with the home stay uncle to settle some china staying permission or something, but it’s a lil troublesome and things cant be done somehow so he’s still trying to find ways for me to register it via the official and legal manner, cause my passport is counted as tourist passport but the truth is I’m not, I’m an foreign intern who came over China to work with NGO to spread awareness bout HIV/AIDS and educate the public there how serious is it in China.

Bleh I don’t wanna mumble too much bout it cuz it’s pointless, all I could do now is just to wait and trust AIESEC in DUT would be able to settle this for me cause it’s out of my own power and jurisdiction to do anything.

Anyway at last I meet up with Yu Han/Zoe from DUT. She’s the gurl who I made an interview with her when she’s trying to come Malaysia for our project based internship but somehow she failed due to her CV being not as good as the others, I personally felt a lil bad that she fails, but meh she’s a real real real nice gurl, she looks really fair too, her skin is so white a smooth >.<>.< after that we went jalan-jalan inside a shopping mall called Olympic Square ( in china they don’t says mall, they use the word ‘square’ quite a lot) stuff there was pretty expensive that Brandon wanted to get a better winter coat but it coat loads that our jaw dropped, cost nearly 3k RMB(ren ming bi – china’s currency) which is the max cash I brought there x.x

Then we went for a movie which is the 1st twilight movie which had showed in Malaysia like a year ago ?? =.= pretty lame, Brandon slept in the cinema cuz he don’t understand a shit they say cuz it’s Chinese and he’s a ‘banana’ hahaha..kesian him a lil but he says it’s fine. Came out and we makan Mc Donalds there, and as we all were told in Malaysia, they’ve pork burger!!! It’s like a must eat thing for Malaysian that goes China :P pretty nice,I like it quite a lot..and you know what,they’ve this chocolate flavour pie too,wth,damm jelat,cant really finish makan it after the burger. And I heard they’ve lagi lagi banyak other pies….

Kesimpulan, I luv China!! And for sure,I love Malaysia too, miss you guys,and I’ll try to get online whenever I had the chance k?i promised,till then,Ja-ne

This is Zoe, My Wednesday,25th November Tour Guide for a day =)

I'm safe in China now!!!

Weather here is fine,when i got drop from Beijing aiport at 6.30am,was frezzing cold that i even feel cold with long john. Another flight plane from Beijing to Da Lian at 8am,reached around 10am and had a bunch of people doing reception for me,quite a warm welcome.I think it was 2 degress when i landed at Da Lian if i'm not wrong. Pretty nice weather actually,i like it.

Then they assign me a trainee buddy,she's being real nice to me,bought me to my homestay family.staying in an outskirt area in Da Lian.The family taking me is being really nice,there's a couple bout 30 or so with their 15 years old kid..the Dad was so worried if he cant communicate with me and he's really happy that i can speak mandarin,haha..they give me a big room to sleep but i got to share it with a 16 years old tortoise here,haha..I will put on a pic next time cause i'm using their pc,mum's laptop cant be used cause the their socket isnt the same as ours in malaysia so i gotta find a way to settle that before using the com again.

After droppping me at the home stay family place,she bought me to 1 of the AIESEC conference they are having that day and they're being so nice for letting me be judge for 1 of the session xD
Anyway i'm really really tired right now,so i think i'm going offline and bed soon,had a long long day,tho a lil tired but worth all it.. Goodnight for now =)

Sat and Sun

People prolly gone clubbing,have fun etc on a saturday nite and sunday prolly goes out with family etc,but me?i'm stuck home with ntg to do. Woke up 4pm on saturday and 1pm+ on sunday

all i did for today was go out to Jusco Bukit Raja to meet another intern that going the same place as i'm for internship in Da Lian,China. Her cousin could help us to do the VISA thing which is a real convinient thing for me as i dont need to go KL alone and do the stuff myself.

All left to do now is book my flight ticket and i'm doing it 2molo afternoon via a dad's friend,she works in travel agency and it's much easier for her to help me find flight =D and packing my stuff,heard max i could bring was 15 KG and i only wants to bring 10KG cuz i'm sure i'll buy stuff back and weight a bit more,so brining 10KG is safest..and honestly speaking,10 KG is very very LITTLE!! i wrote my list out what i gonna bring etc,gonna stuff them in the luggage and weight it..mehh,going China for internship dammm byk thing to prepare >.<

andddd,i so cant wait for China now,just got a mail from 1 of their ppl there that it's snowing now ^^ -5 degrees,guess i gonna freeze there for quite a bit =))

i'm a lil sick now,whole body dont feel right,prolly i woke up at 1pm and didnt had my lunch till 5pm just now when i'm meeting the gurl in Jusco to makan. Then i didnt had the appetite to eat my dinner as well,whole body feels weak,mehh...

signed off,
U Song =)

state of confusion.

today starts with a good day cuz i gonna have an exchange interview at 4pm in Taylors Business School(TBS) for my china internship thing. Was actually pretty happy day cause i was expecting to pass it since Yi Hong says it's easy and stuff and he been keep telling me that i'll sure pass no matter what by telling me the failing ratio and why the person fails,so i was having a big expectation that the interview would be real easy questions and stuff.

I only did some minor research and spend pretty lil time on self simulation on what question they gonna ask by the interviewer since yi hong says it's easy. But end up it was a tensed 30 min interview and to be honest,i'm a lil disappointed on how do i explain or structure out my answers,the session goes on pretty bad or below average in my opinion,cuz bout 70% of the questions i couldnt give the interviewer some solid answer that could actually make them thinks i'm qualified for the internship.

The 2 interviewer been keep trying to prompt me questions to make me answer but somehow i had that answer in heart and i couldnt answer them out,i been asked in for 2nd session cuz they're not really sure on my intention to go abroad(AIESEC wants quality exchanger) so i was pretty mess and stress up to be honest but i try to keep myself cool by talking to ppl..when they asked me out for a 2nd round,i knew something is wrong cuz i did interview for other ppl as well,i know what it means..

i'm really really fuked up nervous but when they ask me:" do u think you could pass this interiew?"
i replied them:"i think i would,because i believe i'm a person suits to go for exchange"

but somehow their faces shows a diff thing(i know the interviewer well in person,so i know how they act at times) so i knew something bad was coming,i tried to keep myself chill.. By then they told me i failed and gimme reasons saying that they're uncleared of my exchange intention and doubt my seriousness for going this exchange i was really really stunned,even if i fail cuz i dont do much research,but seriousness?i do think i tried to show how much i care for this interview,how much i care for this internship thing.. But mehhh,everything turns bad i still fail the interview,i know there's no point arguing for now and there is always a reason for failing me,probably i'm not the one they're looking for so i'm fine with it.

Drove home fuking quick,been tail-gating ppl all way long cuz i'm still really confused and unhappy bout the interview(luckily i wasnt sending catherine back,or else she'll scream at me asking me to slow down >.< ) but meh,when i thought of my mum,it reminds me back 1 of the facebook video that i watched bout speeding,and i promised myself i wouldnt wanna put mum into a state of worry so i slow down by alot,from 130kmj to 80-90kmj.

Got home in a confused yet restless mood and told mum i fail,she asked me why but i still dont feel like telling her everything yet,wasnt in the right mood,i just wanna be alone that time. So i switch on the TV,sms ivan and told him i failed,which waiting for his reply,i slept at the sofa.. Woke up by 1 of the interviewer's phone call telling me that they have already reconsider for passing me,so i could go for internship..

By then i'm still really confused whether i passed of fail actually. That 'blade slice' of u guys did on interview had already put on a deep wound into me,and i'm still thinking,wtf is this?is this some kind of joke?if u wanna fail someone just fail him and dont call back,if your unsure on your answer,DONT DECIDE IT SO QUICK YET THEN!!think calling back and apologizing bout not having deep, adequate thinking before telling me,U FAILED, seriously left a real real real big impact on me still...

i'm still very confused,things were still messy in my head,but bah...w.e i need time myself till for another few hours to actually cool myself down to able to talk back to him and ask the final decision.
