Mulitple events, multiple thoughts in one day...
Wow... if anyone were to to ask me to use a word to describe how i feel today, it would be wow...
The 1st thing would be cleaning the house... My maid was supposed to come back from philippines YESTERDAY after her 2 weeks break, but when my mom and i went to pick her up from the airport, she wasnt there. Her flight was supposed to land at 12 pm, and we reached the airport a bit late about 12 10. Furthermore, her flight landed 8 mins earlier. After waiting for 15 mins, we decided to head back home.
My mum had 3 theories: either she got out of immigration early and went back home by herself when she couldnt find us; or second, she didnt come back at all, or third, she may have come out very late. We left even when there are still lugages in the belt where her flight was allocated... oops.
We decided to go back just in case she got back earlier and was waiting for us. My mom waited for her to come back while i went to collect my new passport from the immigration centre. The trip there caused another thing that happened today, which i shall say later...
My maid still hasnt come back yet so I was home alone the whole day. My mum called in the afternoon asking if my maid has come back already and I said no... THen i asked my mum what housework I can do. SHe told me that I can sweep and mop the floor. I started from the living room to the dining room to the kitchen to the 4 rooms in my house. When I got to my room, I felt kinda lazy. I havent been doing housework for more than a month since I came back to spore. For that instant, I wished my house was carpeted like the one in perth. I only had to vacuum the floor and carpet cleaning is only done once a year! I still finished what my mom asked me to do nonetheless. Thank god my maid came back tonite cos she didnt confirm her flight and could only take the 3 pm plane back to spore.
I was supposed to go for an interview today. I was on the way to lavender when I stopped by MPH at city hall to get the book "Memoirs of a Geisha". I was going down from the escalator to the mrt station when this lady approached me and asked me if I was interested to become a model for advertising, tv ads and magazines or something like that. If I was interested, I just have to put down my name, tel and age. This was the 2nd time I was being approached as I was approached the 1st time at the exact same location except by a different lady. I think they're from the same company. The 1st time I put my name down and someone called me a few hours later, but I told them that I wasnt interested. I told Jasmine about it later but kinda regretted after that. Thought I could make money out of it. So I better not miss a 2nd chance.
However, I decide I better play safe just in case it was a scam. The person called me a few hours after and told me to come for an interview today at taka. SHe said they are free anytime from 12 30 om to 5 om and asked me to choose a time. I told them 2 pm would be fine. I asked them the name of their company, which I shall not name. I went to check out details of their company online and I happen to find this website where they had a chatroom about this company. I read one msg saying that she was also scouted by this company and they showed her pics of all their models in the magazines etc and asked her to pay for a portfolio which she declined in the end. I was sceptical after reading it and decided to msg my friend, which I shall not name again to accompany me to go for the interview. In the end, this guy did not reply me so I was still debating whether to go for the interview. A few hours before the interview, the lady called me to confirm our interview. I told her that I had something on the last minute and I couldnt make it. She asked me if I was free tom and I told her I am starting work tom. SHe then said you should have said earlier. The consultant travelled all the way to taka just to see you. THen She out down the phone.
So there goes my 2 chances of appearing on tv ads. However, I wasnt diasppointed or anything. Firstly, I promised my mum I would wait for my maid to come back just in case she took a flight back to spore today and there's no one at home. Secondly, the lady said I could come for an interview anytime between 12 30 to 5. Hmm.. SHouldnt their schedule be packed as well? I thought there should be others whom they have found and also like me, are keen to go for the interview? Thirdly, the consultant travelled all the way down to taka just to interview me? I just thought they might have arranged for all to meet at the same time so that the consultant can interview all at the same time. Whether this is a scam remains a question mark... But this event is worth blogging... For all those who were scouted, this is my experience and hopefully u guys can share any similar experiences if u have any.
THe last is my long awaited drumming lesson! It started today at yamaha. Paid 60 bucks for it plus $15 for drumsticks and $30 for a book called "Drum Bk 1". It was fun nevertheless. At least I had Kaili to go with. THe instructor was quite hilarious. I now know the parts of a drum, how to read drum scores and learned how to play basic drum notes! Woo hoo, 1st tom, 2nd tom, crash! hee hee... Playing drums really require hand and leg coordination. Lessons are gonna get harder each week. I shall practice with an imaginary drum. Damn... I wish I had a drum set at home....
Alright, this are the events. More to come when I start work tomorrow.... I better get to bed.... Its 12 46 am in the morning now....
