Just came back from Angelique's wedding reception and dinner and totally exhausted! We danced till 5+ am. I have such a high tolerance for booze that their effect is lost on me. Just sleepy. A quick shower and off to bed! Oh yah! I danced with the cook! Imagine that! Haha. However, best dance partner goes to my hubby of course! Muackz! More updates later!
p/s: the strawberry cake is absolutely delicious!

As you guys should have known by now, two very unfortunate incidents took place on Wednesday.

1) I failed my code. No excuse. Stress, nerves, anxiety. One word - bullshit. Throw them out the window.

2) Got the small envelope.

Dad, pls don't kill me. I've tried. Or I think I did. Haha.(Ku xiao) It's karma.

A lot of shitty things happened that made me rethink my character, my relationship with other people and the way I deal with things.

I am so enveloped in my comfort zone.. in this bubble.. de guo qie guo...

Hi everyone. I had an absolutely eventful day yesterday! Yes, the 6 of June 2007. 06/06/07. Wondering if that has anything to do with the day when I crossed paths with Murphy, otherwise known as the day when everything went wrong.

Aim: 8.45am on 06/06/07 at LV's office in Kenzo building for an interview.

The chain of events:

05/06/07 (The day before)
8pm : Too late. Missed train. Needed to take the first train at 5.50am the next day. Screamed, cursed, fussed. Defeated and shut up.

12 midnight: I burnt a hole in my favourite interview blouse. -_-

06/06/07 (The Day of the GREAT interview)
4.40am: "Sleeping Child" rang out from my handphone. Remain comatose in bed.

5am: Dragged myself out of bed. Totally exhausted.

5.25am: Brushed teeth, washed face in a blur...tick tock tick tock

5.30am: Left house. Kiba drove at 160km/h. Record breaking of 8 mins to train station in L'Aigle. Journey of otherwise 15-20 mins.

5.50am: Boarded the first train. Sought the toilet out with my makeup kit in tow. Hands flew to work. Moisturiser slapped, make up applied, perfume sprayed. Got out of toilet made up.

6.30am: Dropped at Dreux and changed train. Nauseous with anxiety. Hands cold, grabbed Kiba's.

7.40am: Reached Montparnasse.

8.10am: Reached neighbourhood where the interview would take place.

8.15am: Kept pulling on my coat with my itchy hands and front button of coat flew off, hit the bar counter of MacDonalds and dropped on floor with a loud "PING". Flabbergasted! Changed shoes to killer heels.

8.40am: Reached Kenzo building. Took off coat, said bye bye to Kiba, exchanged ID for security pass, scanned pass and lumped together with the rest of the other candidates by the lift lobby.

Prissy looking girls with expensive bags sashayed past and went up in the lifts.

9am: Receptionist received call from the higher-ups. All were told to go to the 4th floor. All squeezed into the lift save for 2 who took the next.

From 9 onwards: Video of LV showed. Powerpoint - info about LV. In English! Yay! Otherwise, whole interview conducted in French...

-Presentation of oneself in front of the five recruiters and the rest of the candidates. Managed some laughs from the audience.

-Role play of a sales associate trapped in a tricky situation with a Japanese tourist.

-Individual interview.

12.20pm: My individual interview finished.

Conclusion: Totally nervous. Talked too fast. I put the machine gun to shame.

Totally tired. Gabra until siao.

Overall self given grade: B

Results: In 8 days time counting from yesterday, 7 from today...

Big package = contract

Small and thin mail = reject

All shall lie in God's hands. Pray for me and wish me luck people! I need it!

Exchange program with LV Tokyo for 3 months is one of the advantages if selected.

LV Tokyo!!! Wait for me!!!
