Actually, nowadays I have been thinking about my future career. Plus, I am still currently looking for jobs and it has been four months le and still cannot find. I am thinking that if I can use this time to set up an online business or doing data entry at home, it would be nice. First, I can continue to look for jobs. At the same time, I can spend my time wisely and will not be bored staying at home all time and the most important reason is that I can earn money. But first, I do not know where and how to start. I have actually gone to many website, telling me how to set up online business. But I still do not understand on how to going about setting up online business. So if anyone knows or has any experience on this, you can let me know. |

Last Sunday…there was a charity show the Si Chuan earthquake…there were around 70 artistes and singers…calling people to show concern for the China casualties…and asking people to donate money to help them to overcome this difficult period. It was very touching to see…people gathered together to help…some artistes helped to accept the calls…others singing…some reading poems…some donated their favourite personal belongings…especially when they showed the pictures of those pitiful and heart-wrenching earthquake scenes…people being crushed under the rumblings…struggling to survive…so sad. Seeing from the news…the amount for the donations was about 950 million now…which was a lot…hoping that this amount would help the casualties in terms of financial…although their emotional state cannot be recovered so quickly. |

Haix…terrible for me…I was sick for the past few days…never come online for the past one week. At first…only had some flu…then started having mouth infections…so painful…slowly started having sore throat…and finally had some coughing. Maybe…due to the recent weather change…that why I got sick. Since I was born…my body has been weak…easily get sick…every year at least sick for 3 to 4 times…perhaps those bacteria in the air like to enter in my body…haha. Now I am feeling much better…little coughs le. I do not like to get sick…because…perhaps the effect of the medicine…is too strong for me to take. Whenever I take the medicine…then my body and my hands will shake more frequently than the normal times…not to mention about holding things like cups. Last Tuesday…the job placement officer in the Bizlink Centre…called me…telling me that there was an admin job…see whether I am interested in…but it requires me to speak to Chinese clients…then I think for a while…and told him that I cannot speak fluently…afraid that the clients would not understand what I am saying…see if they mind…then he said ok…and continued to help me to look for another suitable jobs for me. But since that call from him…he has not called me for more than 1 week le…worried that he might give up looking jobs for me…hoping that he would call me soon. |

Yesterday, I n my mother n Michelle, who is my mother’s friend’s daughter who live at our house, went to Tiong Bahru Plaza. We went there to buy my clothes…T-shirt…need to prepare first…so that in future wont be so kang jiong. I bought one T-shirt n one long pant. We walked around…went to the ‘More than words’ for quite a long time…so many cute toys. Then we went to the beds shop. As I have not eaten breakfast, I was really so hungry so I told my mother to be fast and I wanted to eat. So we went to eat loh. Today, my mother and I went to Outram Park. My mother wanted to buy the boiling flask but in the end, she bought nothing haha. We went to the Nu Ren Jie(Women street) as my mother has not been there before. Last time, I went there before with my uncle's family. As I thought that there would be many females going there, but I could hardly see any people at there. Perhaps that the location is not good as it is in the basement floor and that is why few people would go there. |

Recently, there were 2 major disasters happened in the world. One is the draught in which Maymmar is currently facing and the other is the major earthquake which happened in China, Si Chuan. This time, the earthquake caused hundreds thousand of people to be affected. Some died, some injured and some are still missing. It is the China second most serious earthquake since last time which the most serious earthquake happened in 1939. Today, there is again a earthquake happened in Si Chuan. These few days, when I bought the newspaper and read the news, most of them are the China earthquake. When I saw those dead bodies lying around the street or being buried under the buildings, I feel very sad and pitiful for them and their family. Although the chances of having to see a living person during the earthquake scene now, there are some people able to survive till now. Like yesterday, one baby, who only just born a few days ago during the earthquake, survives while his mother died. Many China workers traveled back to China to see whether their families are safe. Artistes from different parts of the world has come together to donate their money to help the causalities. Also, the local China famous artists have prepared to donate their paintings to help the China people to overcome the difficult period of life. I hope that there would no be any disaster in the future and every one can live harmony in this beautiful world. |

Recently, my brother introduced me to watch a Japanese drama ‘1 litre of tears’. In the past, I had heard from my classmates about this drama. They said that it was a touching and sad show and I had wanted to watch this particular drama but I seemed to forget about it. Indeed it is a sad and touching show that made me feel so pitiful for the character that was in the show. It is actually a true story based on the Aya Kito‘s own life. The story plot summary goes: Aya Kito was diagnosed with a disease called Spinocerebellar ataxia when she was 15 years old. The disease causes the person to lose control over their body, but because the person can retain all mental ability the disease acts as a prison. Aya discovers this disastrous news as the disease has already developed.There is no cure. Through family, medical examinations and rehabilitations, and finally succumbing to the disease, Aya must cope with the disease and live on with life until her death at the age of 25. While watching the drama, I sometimes will feel sorry for her and it actually can make me cry. Particularly, there is one part when her classmates knew about her condition and they wanted the girl to leave the school so that she does not affect everyone’s grades and school’s lesson. And it happened that the girl heard their discussion and the girl decided to go to the disability school although she would like to continue to study in normal school. Most importantly, I admire her for having the courage to continue to go on to live optimistically despite her disability and having to accept other people’s different eyes. If I were her, I probably will try to run away from reality and not to be other people’s burden. |

Then in the afternoon, I went to the Technopark which is located at the Alexandra again. My cousin called me the day before that there was interview. As I reached there earlier, I walked around for a while and called my cousin to come down. Then my cousin took me to find the person. As we were chatting along, she told me that the interviewer was actually her husband’s friend. She also told me the clothes to wear for interview in future and how to answer the question that the interviewer asks. She also told me not to give up on hopes. And so we reached the place and the interviewer took me to a room. Then the interviewer told me that the job was the admin support. Following, he explained to me what tasks for the jobs are and those normal questions. Through the conversation, I could sense that he would no want to hire me. And so he asked me to wait for the reply. |

Yesterday, I had two interviews to go. In the morning, my father and I went to the Biz-link centre as I am not familiar with the place. It is located at Bedok in which this was the first time I was going there. It is a government company which helps those handicapped people to find jobs. As we were going to the centre, we saw a few disabled people walking around. Some of them were working at there. So when we reached the centre, I told the receptionist that I was looking for someone. So she asked me to wait at there while she called the person. Then the admin asked me to fill up the particular form and asked me to wait for the person to call me to go in for the interview. Soon, the person asked me and my father to go in for the interview. There were four persons which includes one social worker, one job placement officer and two medical doctors. At that time, I was really afraid because I need to face 4 unfamiliar faces at the same time. So they started to interview me and asked me about my medical condition and how they can help me. I showed them my medical certificate and my diploma cert. They asked me about the jobs that I was looking for and if the salary is low, would I mind. The medical doctors also asked me to show them my hands and do some hand exercise. They also said that there would be a meeting in Thursday to discuss about my medical condition and they would try to help me to find a job. Soon the interview was over and the medical doctors told me that I may need to come back for some medical check up next week. And so we went home. Personally, I would not mind working at a place where others may treat me as a handicapped person or where the company hires handicapped people. As long as there is a job in which I can do, I am satisfied and I would not mind the salary although somehow it may affect my emotions. At least I feel satisfied and there would lesser stress working at there. |

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers in the world. For my family, we hardly celebrate this particular day. Today, my father asked us to buy a cake for my mother. Haha…I do not need to fork out my own money and I get to eat the cake. I also have little money because I now still haven’t found a job. I had wanted to buy something like photo frame or order pizza for my mother if I work. Guess that my mother will have to wait for another one year before I can buy gift for her.
Although I never say happy mother's day to my mother as I dont like to feel so mushy but deep in my heart, I wish my mother will be healthy as always and hope that I wont be a burden to her in future if I carry on to live like that without job. |
