The not-so-new Graduate

I went for a staff development's award ceremony for Mr.Hubs yesterday & I met our VC. Seriously, I've never got any chances meeting him in person before. So, that was like a dream came true, which might sound like a bit exaggerating but I'm really glad that I finally met our VC in person.*wink*

There were also an award for the passport students (an additional cert. for final year students to increase their employability after graduate), which I've missed last year since I was too busy with my final year- working on design portfolio, design report, exhibition, etc. So and so, VC and I had a small chat. I told him that I am actually last year's graduate. I studied B Arch and still looking for a job. He didn't looked surprised at all. ''.....well it's a bad time anyway. The economic has just 'slightly' to turn up a bit.....but the construction industry was 'slightly' too slow at the moment. Let's hope for the best & I wish you best of luck.....'' he said.

Here is a photo of VC & me, and the next picture was on the day I graduated last year. (tap on the back)






Mr. Hubs criticised me that I'm a quitter, which have taken me by heart...sob..sob... But I'm going to prove him wrong. I am truly determine again now to get someone to hire me. Well, in my own cheeky way of course. I don't want to look so overwhelm, because I know when things didn't turn up as I expected, I shall lost my flaw. And yet, to listen to another criticism from him just make me depress a lot more. The previous entry's goal has been added on my to do list for this coming Monday. Look forward for that entry then!

JobSeeking goal

I've no idea where had my first entry gone. Well, the whole new blog I've just created on my 1st attempt to become a blogger just vanished. I created them last week and start posting my 1st entry straight away. Today, as an attempt to write my 2nd, it was no longer there to manage. I still remember the title of the 1st entry in that archiCheeky blog; ''There'll always be a first time''. I feel frustrated because I'm not going to be able to spill what I've wrote again n that entry because....owh...because it's been a while I guess? Does it mean I have to post entry everyday to keep my blog 'alive' at some point? What the heck? It's only a week? Well, there's no point whining & I'm going to stop it right now before anyone got pissed...lol..;p

So, ladies & gentlemen, here we are in my second blog called archiCheekyChic. lol ;p I have no idea why I named it like that but that's just me being cheeky. This coming July shall marked my 1 year of finding architectural job after my summer graduation last year. I found a website where I can put up my portfolio  and CV. I even have a linkedIn but nothing works. However, I feel that I am not determined enough to look for a job that suits my qualification so there's no one else to blame. Perhaps setting up this blog shall land me any jobs? *wink* Wish me luck then.

The next thing should be in my to do list shall be going to Hays recruitment agency in Portland Street to see how can they help. Or, shall I say how I can help myself out from this 'comfortable' cocoon I had since I became a graduate.
