  As I grew up, life taught me a good number of lessons. One lesson I learned recently was, when being strong is the only choice you have, you will end up being strong even without you realizing. And, you will get used with being strong. Definitely not bragging about myself, at times when I sit in silence and look back at my life, I feel proud of the journey I came through in life.     Unlike most of the young people my age, I never get to enjoy life. I have less friends, and my days are always congested with work and studies. I do not have movie nights, friends outing or sleepover at a friend's place. Nothing! All I have is stressful study nights and restless working hours in the day time. There were times were I could not take in more. I felt where my life badly needs a break. As I said, I was not enjoying my life, I thought :)     But, now being a grown up, having a brain that functions pretty well, I realized that I'm enjoying too, in a differe...

It's 03.23PM, the 15th February 2017. I am still in my office blogging because I'm too bored. Basically I work in a customer service centre where we have peak and off-peak hours. There will be times when I could not even have a break to exhale my breath. There will be times when I will be extremely free just like how I am today.      You might think that I work in a cool company that allows you to use the internet while working. No! You are wrong.

I have something to do to kill my time. Life is all good so far. I'm working on a full time basis and doing my degree in communication on a part time basis. Juggling between a student lifestyle and adult lifestyle. From 5am onwards, I am a responsible working adult...

   I would like to share my experience of attending a job interview in HSBC Bank Global Customer Service Centre some time ago, when I was still jobless. I was not hired of course but I am glad that now I am already employed in a well-established company in Kuala Lumpur. The journey of interview in HSBC Bank is a tough one and I hope my blog will give you a somehow plain picture on how is it like.     I received a phone call from their HR Department just two days after I applied for the job vacancy via Jobstreet website.I believe the staff who called me is an international executive of HSBC as her slang was different and I find it difficult to actually understand what was she saying. As the first step, a short interview was done over the phone by the lovely lady, Miss Monica. After a quick interview session, I was selected for the walk-in interview which was scheduled two days after the phone conversation. I made all the necessary preparations. I photocopied my cert...
