The interview went pretty smoothly. For once I did not feel too uncertain nor dissatisfied. It felt ideal despite the not-so-attractive starting pay. And I appreciate the fact that the seemingly nice lady boss gave me some time to think through it clearly. I have lost count of the number of interviews I have attended since last June. And I am beginning to see the change in my attitude towards job hunting. Not that I am nonchalant of course, but I realised I do not see every opportunity as being extremely important, but merely doing what I can. So I was naturally lighthearted as I left the place to meet the uni clique. We had our favourite Watami full salad which I am hardly sick of. I liked how everyone seemed to be in high spirits today. Their smiles always comfort me.
Xi and I shared a Venti soyed latte. For some reason, the drink always tastes exceptionally good when shared with a good friend. What's more it was a free beverage I painstakingly earned after my ten soyed lattes and two caramel macchiatoes. Now the counter goes back to zero again. We sat for a good two hours before walking some distance to Holland V for some aimless shopping and then back again. Maybe subconsciously we were enjoying the chats and walks too much. At least I was. In fact a part of me dreads the fact that these people are starting work real soon and it will become harder for us to meet.
Before she turned in, she texted and said, "做好自己。" Very coincidentally, M also texted "你是最好的自己" at the same time. And the very timely book from her, when I was just thinking about starting on one soon. It was a day with a lot of love. Frankly, that was pretty much what I felt the whole day: heaps of goodness. And because it was Wednesday, I secretly thought that laoshi could be watching over me.
It is true I care so much about how people look at me. I am working on it. For a start, I think I need to change how I look at myself.
22 May. I think I have been counting down since last March. I am really... excited please.
Days of Future Past.
