First Interview, first success...

Yesterday, a friend of mine from Malaysia informed me tat a company is looking for draughtsman (sort of like drafter). The company advertised in Malaysia's newspaper.

After a few minutes of consideration, I decided to call them. The outcome of the call, they want me to go for an interview on the next day, which is today.

Woke up at 8am to prepare myself. The interview was at 9.30am. The company location is really close to my house, take bus only need 5 stops, about 15 minutes. I left my house at 8.50am.

Even though I alighted at the wrong stop, but I still managed to reach the company before 9.30am. Luckily I went out earlier.

Filled in the form and waited for 5 minutes or so, the director (not too sure what's her position) talked to me and asked for my documents like IC, passport, diploma cert etc.

And then, HANDS ON TEST!!!!

It was not that hard. Create certain things and align according to a plan with correct dimension/proportion in Adobe Illustrator. Even though I am not very used to using Illustrator compare with Photoshop, at least I have the basic knowledge. So, not a problem for me.

After that, the director started to talk to me about the company, about work permit issue etc. In the end, she said that I can start working on next monday.

LOL!!!

After few months of unemployed life, it finally comes to an end!! No more slacking life, time to get back to busy life!!

Wohooo!?!?

Time to get back to normal life

I've been busy playing MMO since 2 months ago.
A gamers will understand how I felt especially MMO players. When started MMO, the ultimate goal will be chionging level, in order to become a stronger ones.

Today, 17 July 2009, I've made a decision to stop the MMO game. (level 92, best level in my life so far for MMO)

It's quite tiring to play game everyday, from morning til night, after wake up, before go to bed. I guess I had enough of that lifestyle.

Freedom, I've gained. Released from the chain MMO leveling life!!!

It has been quite some time since my last time touching my wacom tablet...
Since I've nothing else to do, I finally picked up the wacom and started to play with the stylus (the pen thingy to draw on wacom tablet, for those who don't know) and the sketch below is the outcome...

The purpose of this sketch is to study lighting and rendering... After such a long time of break from drawing, I guess this is quite horrible...

This is kinda freaky i think, suppose to be cute... The original picture was a baby (my youngest nephew).

Graduation, Jobless, Unemployed...

After graduation ceremony has passed, I am officially a non-student now.
Stepping into a brand new world, dunno what to do, what to choose...

A diploma holder, with not-up-to-industry-standard skill, I am totally lost. The application letter were sent, none has replied. This is quite depressing. People said we can't choose our 1st job, only job choose us, especially fresh-grad in the year of 2009, a year that facing economic crisis.

My future? After a few months of considerations, I know that I will still go for degree course next year, because the diploma course didn't make me well-prepared for this industry. We learned everything, from 2D traditional art/photoshop/flash, 3D Maya/3DMax to scripting/programming Flash/Python/HTML... A bit here and a bit there, stuffed with all sort of basics. So many things and yet, none of the skill has really become my strength, my weapon.

I feel kinda regretted that I didn't throw much effort on the modules (even though the course was kinda screwed up cause we are the pioneer batch). Scripting/programming is really a very good and essential skill to have in order to join design industry...

Now, I need a job, to earn some money and to spend my time.

There is a vacancy available in Muar, as an admin, or something like that. I guess the pay will be RM1000++. I am considering whether should I take that job. I really wish I can get a job in Singapore.

If I work in Muar, is not like I can't survive with that RM1000++ salary. I can save a lot of money cause I wouldn't need to pay for food, travelling fare or even rental, and can get more time to spend with family.

However, if I go back Muar, my cousins here in Singapore will need to pay extra for the rental and internet bill. I feel that this is not fair to them. And also, working in Singapore will be safer and more convenient since there are MRT and buses everywhere. There is no need for me to ride on my own vehicle (most likely will be motorbike).

Haiz... What should I do??

My first post 开张大吉

Here I am, again, starting new blog.

What to write for this blog?
Hmmmm....
I'll just write whatever I feel, I think, I like, I want...
Who cares!! lol...
Because this is my blog, my space.

So... How's my life right now?
My life? Life? Do I have "life"?

My daily routine: Wake up, eat, shit, shower, online, eat, continue online, shower again, online, back to sleep...
If that is called life, then I do have one here.
Now I am kinda like floating on the vast sea, looking for an island. An island called "Future"

I feel like learning new things now to fill in my empty life.
I miss school life.

I am regreted that I didn't attend CCA during poly life.
I wonder will I really go in uni next year.
If I manage to get in, I guess I'll join CCA.

But now, i need money!!!
I need a job!!!
