I almost made it….and then I lost it.

I had one of my crazy moments last night and submitted my resume for an internship in a m edia company specializing in Scripting, DVD production & Broadcasting. In fine print, it was written that only shorlisted applicants will be contacted. Who knew that I would get a call back the following morning and would be asked to go for the first round interview? I was so exicited I had that I-am-going-to-pee-in-my-pants feeling. First thing that came to my mind was, What the hell am I gonna wear?! Sounds so bimbotic I know, but can't help being a girl sometimes all the time.

I was already 20 minutes late for my lecture but I headed straight for the Careers Assistant Unit to clarify a few doubts. I was so devastated when the coordinator said that I do not qualify for the position if I am still studying full time because it's a Temporary Position, not a Part Time Position.

So that was the start of My Bad Day. I dragged myself to class trying to avoid my lecturer's eyes as I walked in the classroom. I've only just settled myself to the seat beside my friends (which embarrassingly was right in front of the class) when H started to pester me with the Christmas Gift Exchange. I don't mind the whole idea of the Exchange Gift really, but if there's a wishlist, where's the surprise of not knowing what you'll get from you friends?

Like I said, there's the $20-$25 budget which made it extremely difficult for me to decide on my wishlist. I didn't want to ask for something beyond the budget cuz that would be such a bitchy prima donna thing to do. To add to that, I was under the notion that there would be a lot of us in the Exchange. But nooo, there was only 6 of us because someone didn't want everyone to join. The more the merrier…bet you never heard of that. Talk about being selfish during Christmas.

Went to the mall to get the Gift after lecture. My Bad Day started to get worse. Here I was trying to crack my brain to come up with a fuckin' wishlist below $25 and all the items in my unlucky person's wishlist are well above $25. They're fuckin' double the price!

My Bad Day didn't end in the day, it followed me right to this point (as I am typing this post). My Globe Roaming service is fucked up. Yesterday the Globe Advisory sent a reminder that my roaming will expire in 24 hours if I don't extend. And I'm only allowed to extend twice with a maximum of 30 days each. So I extended it and this afternoon, I get a another fuckin' text saying that my balance is below P500 and and I should top it up for continous roaming service. What the fuck does that mean? Does it mean that if I top it up above P500 I don't have to apply for another roaming extension after 30 days? Damn telecomm companies and their fuckin' money making schemes!

I think the only good thing that happened today was my parent's early Christmas gift. Will take a picture of it when I'm in a better mood. It's a bag from this boutique which sells stuff from the USA. It's really pretty and dainty but costs a bomb. My mom didn't wanna get it for me until we compromised. Since it comes with such a heavy price tag, it'll be my Christmas gift from them this year.
