INTERVIEW part 2

if you could see my face rite now....you would be probably laughing....because i am smiling ear to ear trying to apologise for what i have not been able to do... my interview part 2 was due the very next day after interview part 1 but then i had debates practise with my juniors and had another interview with a camp to attend...so it had been lagged up till now... so here it goes...I'll try to make it short and sweet (can't believe i actually said that...eewww)

first off..let me pick off where i left you guys... yup the entrance..
we (that is me and my fellow comrades who happened to be in the same group as i was) walked into the room with politeness seeping out of our sweat pores and smiles that actually hurt our lips (well...i don't really know about the others but i was doing that). there were three of them and 6 of us. even though we were larger in quantity they were like giants in our eyes. they looked at us, flashed a short smile and gestured us to take our respective seats.

then it was on. well...not really. they just asked us to talk about our self. then blar blar blar...done with myself..next talk about TNB whatever you know about TNB...the regurgitating process started here, every single detail from its operating revenue to its worth of assets....and i think i talked too much because one of THEM had to say " wow, that is sufficient aravin" to actually stop me....oops bummer...

next was the debate. THE MOTION WAS THAT THIS HOUSE BELIEVES THAT TECHNOLOGY MAKES MAN LAZY. the prime minister( the guy beside me) was called upon to present his case while sitting and looking like an idiot (cheh...we all do it...because in a debate we are not supposed to seat...haiz...i don't know man...how they run that huge a place when they don't even know the simple rules of debating...hahahahahaha....just kidding man...don't take it seriously). he was saying something about inventions making our life easier but making it lazier instead. some thing about elevators making our muscles in our legs in active and stuff (heheh...because i was too busy trying to oppose the motion, i wasn't really listening)

then, the 1st opposition came up ( not really, i was still sitting). i said that technology is not to be blamed for man's laziness and that it is man who should be blamed and stuff, i got carried away with saying that technology was merely making man's life easier and also helping man get healthy in a way for inventions like the thread mill give man the ability to workout in his home...and all the boring stuff (well, i really like my last line though, ITS HIGH TIME WE STOP BLAMING TECHNOLOGY FOR EVERYTHING AND START REALISING THE TRUTH. WE HAVE A PROBLEM AND WE ARE OUR PROBLEM)...that took up the two minutes they gave to present....after that i completely switched off and was trying to justify (in my mind of course) whatever i said out aloud.

after that, they said the session was over and asked us whether we had any questions or not. of course all of us just smiled and said NO. then, we said our THANK YOU's and walked out.

that was all that happened , and nothing more. until next time xoxo.

INTERVIEW experience...(part 1)

i would say it was a very nice experience getting shortlisted. the interview was alright i guess.

well I'll just sum the process...
  1. arrive in the very BIG posh campus with amazing architecture
  2. look like an idiot wearing shirt and slacks
  3. go in the registration room to find a bunch of quiet people
  4. look around like a lost dog
  5. find the registration counter
  6. register and smile like a donkey while saying THANK YOU
  7. sit down and wait
  8. look left and right thinking of whether to speak first or to wait and be spoken to
  9. speak to a dude beside me without exposing too much of my craziness
  10. enter the small briefing room
  11. a guy talks on how hard it is to get a scholarship and that we are lucky to get this far
  12. first group of students (6 of them) enter the DOOMSDAY room
  13. talk like a mad maniac (nerves got to me, i just had to be myself) to the persons beside me (both sides)
  14. 1st group of students come out with faces of ten year olds who just got their POKEMON cards confiscated

then, it was my group's turn....

and this is the part where i say...I'll continue with part 2 later because it is hilarious and i need time to put it together..hehehehehe....so farewell for now
