Please, dont send me out to the workforce yet

it's the end of week 3 final semester and thank godness career fair ended! no more scratching head, thinking of what work clothes to wear. i've got limited work clothes so everything was kinda like repetitive.

NUS career fair was FUN! better than RE's. We attended talks pertaining to "how to secure ur dream job" (like that was possible?),  "Does look matter?" and a make up course for girls only of course.

I find the talk regarding to image quite interesting. The speaker even demo-ed to prove the point. 1 take away point, dress up in apt clothes that u're comfy in instead of following fashion trends.

Some tips which I found interesting

Tips #1 Always wear a light coloured long sleeve blouse and dark colored skirt/pants when u're going for an interview. 2 piece outfit will make u look more professional.

Tip #2 Always wear HEELS! yeah i knw some of us really hate to do so, that includes me. but first impression really counts. Heels that arent too high unless u're auditioning for something else. *ahem

Tip#3
Nv cross your legs, but instead shift ur legs to the side (like how Ann Hathaway was tot in Princess diaries if u remember). By crossing ur legs, u'll give the interviewers an impression that u're very atas, high class, arrogant.

Make up class was the highlight of the day becos we actually get to do hands on! hehe and experiment with the almost everything the brand carried. Majolica Majorca by Shiseido group. The teacher was really quite funny esp the way he spoke. haha Juicy Juicy so SEXY! haaha his catch phrase. Quite a good session for a make up noob like me. an unglam me in action. haha
