Resume

Few weeks ago, I got a letter from my former cram school which I attend for entering college, it said that they want us to work for them if interested after graduated, and we can send an email including our resume to teacher Sung. I thought it was really sweet of them, and I am still looking for a job, so I sent my resume and politely asked them to read my resume if convenient.
Few days later, I got a reply! Teacher Sung replied me,
“Dear Tina,
I got your mail,
But your resume wasn’t attached,
I cannot read it even it is convenient for me to do so!”

That was really hilarious!
So then I send it again!!

Now I am going to an interview at my old cram school.

Interview at China Airlines- Part 3

This time is for ground staff actually
I failed my interview for cabin crew as well, so frustrated!!!

I don’t really want to be a ground staff of any airline,
Ground staffs stay at the same place, that isn’t what I pursue.

Anyway, there’s a chance, so I went for it.
I’m tired…

It went well, I guess.
Waiting for them to post the results online.

Interview at China airlines- Part 2

As I arrived the new area of China Airlines, I found the building I was entering is a cabin crew building! It is new, clean, modern, and amazing!! There is virtual cabin, seats, aisles, and every single detail copied from the real airplane, so I guess this is where cabin crew will be trained!! It was so cool!

After entering the gate, there are plenty of flight attendants checking your forms, ID, and even your height, but I was really lucky that they think I am tall enough, so they just gave me an “o” on my sheet, rather than had me take off my high heels and touch the 200cm line on the wall.

Next, all of the interviewees were divided to six in a group, and each of us got one piece of paper with 10 paragraphs of English on it, we had one minute to skim through it and then we went in to a room. Those interviewers, they all looked nice, would ask each of us to read a paragraph, then we’re done!

The interview was really smooth and quick, and it didn’t nervous me at all. I felt comfort, and confidant!!

Interview at China airlines- Part 1

On May 23rd, I went to taoyuan to have the first interview for china airlines’ recruiting for cabin crew, it was 8,000 people signed in and 5,000 people got the chance to be interviewed.

I’m pretty sure I’m the one in 5,000 people.

China Airlines used to hold the interviews in Taipei, but this year, there is a new area for China Airlines completed in Taoyuan, next to the international airport. So it became inconvenient for me to get there.

When I woke up on Sunday morning, I realized it is raining cats and dogs out there, uh, bad luck, before Sunday it was everyday extremely SUNNY day!

Then I have to take taxi to Taichung bus terminal, it took 2 hours taking the bus to the airport, at least I am lucky to be arranged interview in the afternoon. Rita got up at 3:30 am for an 8 o’clock interview!

HairSpray

Hairspray, our graduation program, holding by us, the senior year students in English Department, is coming this weekend.

I will dancer for 3 songs during the whole show, probably 10 minutes only, maybe 12, ha.
I invited my best friends to come, although I have only ten minutes performance, they are still willing to come for my sake. By the way, they will come here from Taipei. I love my best friends!

Tomorrow is our rehearsal day, whole day practicing and checking every detail,
I hope I can stop making mistakes!!!
Peace out~~~~~~~~~

Welcome to our show!!

the PROMOTION

The movie is about Doug and Richard,
Two people work hard for a same reason,
For getting the manager position at the new branch.

They both work very hard,
Although Doug wins in this competition,
Richard still get a manager job back in his hometown.

This tells us we will get what we want if we pursue it patiently….

It reminds me about my interview for cabin crew at Eva air,
That night I got the email from the company, I knew I failed, but I pretend nothing happened…
Then I cried hard in the middle of the night.

What’s the big deal for not being hired by Eva air??
It’s time to move forward.
At least I have fought for it, at least I have passed 3 stages…
There are still a lot of chances.

This weekend, I am going to the open day of QATAR airways, good luck to me=)

Country Side

It’s my weekend again!!
This week I stayed in taichung, and my boyfriend come visiting.
Go for an afternoon tea at tunghai art street, it is a cute coffee shop filled with cozy atmosphere.


At night, we hunt food at fengchia nightmarket, I haven’t been here for a long while…
Probably last time when Erica visited. Joking.

The point is,
We went field trip on Friday, it was an awful day, because it started to rain on Friday, but Monday to Thursday were sunny days!

We took train then bus to a small hakka town in Miaoli.
It wasn’t so much fun because most stores didn’t open on weekday, and the weather was awful, but we still enjoy our time together.

My nose wakes up first

Every morning my nose wakes up earlier than me.
Whenever my nose starts to stuck and wants to sneeze, it wakes my conscious, than I have to take tissue to wipe my nose, and my body wakes.

I don’t like my nose behaving like this…
It really disturb me in the morning, sometimes I am not going to get up that early,
But my nose wakes me up like this.

As if I wasn’t breathing during my sleep, as long as I’m awaken a little bit, my nose start to bother me…

I really hate this nose allergy!!

Talk is cheap

Recently, I love this line of lyrics very much,
“Talk is cheap, give me a word you can keep.”
It is from a song called “Halfway gone.”

This line reveals the disappointing while some promises have not been kept by others.
It’s like someone you care about always keep you disappointed, that certainly hurts and sad.
In Chinese culture there is slang about a word worth thousand dollars, I think that is a similar meaning.

One can say something easily, talk is easy, but keeping what you’ve said, maybe not that easy!
So it reminds us to keep our words seriously or we might hurt some people’s feelings.
I think this line makes me think a lot, and it also gives me some reflection on myself.

Spring Break

Usually we don’t have spring break at our school,
This year, as a senior student,
I have a spring break for myself.
From Wednesday to the next Tuesday.

On Friday, I went to Yangming Mountain with my boyfriend,
It is the season of Calla Lily(海芋).

It was a cloudy day in the city, but as we approaching into Bamboo Lake, where the Calla Lilies’ farms at, the weather was worse, it was raining, and freezing out there.

After we got off car, we walked around the fields and chose one farm to visit.
Calla Lilies are grown in water, so we changed into rain boots to go into the lily field.

It was really cold in the mountain, and was still raining, both of us were shivering in the field, and our hands were cold as ice, but it was so much fun pulling those flowers out from the ground.

Each of us gets 8 calla lilies back home. They are so pretty and so is this day.

EVA AIR

My dream is to be a flight attendant,
While I am going to graduate from school, I am approaching my dream.

I sent my resume weeks ago,
And I finally got an e-mail informing me to interview.
Amber, Rita, and Eva got the mail as well.

The company of Eva air is in Nankang, our interview time is 8 o’clock in the morning, Mar 20th.
Four of us booked a hotel room nearby the interview place.
Though it was so closed to the place, we still had to get up at 5in order to dress up, and make our appearance neat.

It was just the first stage.

There are two parts interviewing today.
First, we went on catwalk.
Of course, all the girls should wear high heels.

Then, we went to another room,
Five girls in a group,
And each of us had to read a passage in English and Taiwanese.

After this, it was a terrible 2 minutes of waiting.
A girl came out from the room with 5 pieces of paper….

I passed!!
Only one girl from my group failed, I guess it was because she laughed when one of the girls read funny Taiwanese.

So I am going to the second stage, with Amber and Eva.
It is Mar 27th.

Kaohsiung

It was my cousin’s wedding yesterday,
March 13th, 2010, Saturday.

It is so hot in Kaohsiung.

Friday after school, I went home with Ina,
She lives in Kaohsiung,
I was staying at her home for a night.
Her parents were very nice,
Her home is so big, neat, and beautiful.

We chatted until 2 o’clock in the morning, until we both fell in dreams…

On Saturday, I went to the wedding with my family,
Both my cousin and his wife are court prosecutors.

In the afternoon we had an energetic Kaohsiung city tour on bikes,
The bicycle riding didn’t exhaust me, but it killed my ass.

The next day, today,
We went to Meinong Township, it is a hakka village in Kaohsiung County.
We had traditional hakka food for lunch and it’s a perfect period of this trip.

It was an awesome weekend!

School Starts

The longest winter vacation ever has finally ended.
This is the last vacation I have in my life,
I suppose.
I’m glad I had the chance to enjoy a 5 weeks winter vacation during my student life.

Well,
This new semester means an end of my college life,
And a start for reality as well.

It is said,
School is a small society;
Society is a big school.

I’m not planning to go into graduate school,
So I am nervous about my future now,
“anxious” is a best word to describe me.
