when nonsense met joker.
one day , this young fine lad woke up , dressed up in his best clothes and walked out to take a bus , headed straight for his interview. in the bus , this joker , sat and pondered the points that he would like to convey during his interview. he was calm , not anxious at all. neither confident neither complacent. just plain blank and plain calm.
okay he reached the interview place met new people from different colleges. one from rj one from sa. very nice ppl to talked to. =].apparently both had 3as.. hahhaa.. that joker just kept quiet due to the inferiority complex. but joker introduced himself to them and chatted away to ease the tension and boy could he sense the deafening silence in the waiting room lah before that.. even the slightest fart can be heard .. so , one of them went in, and came out 15 mins later.. joker asked: 'hey so hows your interview? '.. she replied : well they didn't even asked me a single question......
[..................................................]
that came thru the joker's mind. must have left the RJ girl in awe too.
sa gal said: 'oh , they just asked me to sit down and asked what's my name'.
oh my G O D. GOD!!! 15 minutes about your name. interesting isnt she? must have taken the interviewers for a ride.. respect to the sa gal. soon joker was called in. there sitting in a room was a very beautiful 30+ lady and an aging man which he guessed was like the prof or associate prof..okays lets see what happened shall we.. this is a brief answer by the joker for the experts.we just observe the short and simple answers yah?
question: joker, why you want accountancy?
answer : because accountancy guarantees me a job upon graduation. and its a professional degree. not anyone can do it . plus , my focus would be job security.
question: yes, let's take a look at your choices , you put accountancy 1st choice but LAW 4th choice. both acc. and law are professional , have good job prospects too. but why acc?
[ suddenly , joker felt the threat there]
answer : i have a liking for maths and prefer logical approach . thus, the natural inclination for accountancy. plus, i don;t think i would excel in law because i know my abilities. just not for me.
[joker smiled and knew he lost points there.joker was honest yet degraded himself]
question: okay , joker, can you tell us more about something you are passionate in? it can be things that are not related to school..
[joker's'heart was thumping.. joker was never passsionate in anything..but only one thing]
answer : ARCADE.
[ ........................... @@]
answer: yes, i am very into arcade especially racing cars. i've spent years practising and though i spent lots of money, i felt it was worth it being able to show your skills to wow the public. now, i am moving into newer games as there are more challenges for me.
[joker felt so stupid and was on the verge of laughing.. it wasn't a lie.. but it wasn't a very mature approach]
question: yes joker, what do you do during your free time to ENRICH yourself?
joker said to his heart, " god, i shall not lie about this ''
answer : oh nothing much actually. i just put in my best efforts to keep in touch with my old friends be it secondary school or college friends. friends are not easy to find these days. to me, friends are there to hear your thoughts and they do share their own experiences and thru this , i get to know more things than b4 and have a rough overview on certain topics ' that is how i felt how i could enrich myself.
whoa. interviewers seemed please.. SEEMED. but joker knew something was wrong.
last question: is there any question that you would like to ask us?
answer : nope, not at all. [smiled] thank you so much.
- the end of a screwed interview-
joker went out of the room and lots of thing went thru his mind. what happened to the key points.. what was with that passion .. what was so enriching... ah .. it was just that moment joker felt that joker missed the cut.. but bottom line was still this.. joker did not put a fake upfront. joker was purely himself. spontaneous but no substance...
moral of the story : do not be too honest ! and when they asked you whether you have any questions to ask.. YOU ASK! haha.. die die must ask.. to show that you are inquisitive.
joker called a few friends of his and told them the interview .. and they all laughed .. joker was happy to hear them laugh.. =]
well, let bygone be bygone.. today joker presented himself 'pretty well' . go ARCADE!!
oh dear ladies and gentleman.. how do you feel after reading this story.. i felt so much for him..somehow this incident was so close to my heart. all my love goes out to this boy yah.. poor boy.. well, at least he was happy about it.. being EAU NATUREL..well, there you go smu, a joker for the day who just hangs out with friends and plays arcade and wish to pursue accountancy.
hehe, anyways .. life goes on yah .. its not the end of the world.. one consolation for today my money came in!! hit 800 this month ..whee.. goodie.. going out later to meet up with my angklung friends..its been ages since i last saw them ..meeting them at city hall =]
