Another day in paradise

Today started off like any other day, with my daughters voices breaking the still of the chilly morning. After a quick shower, I bundled the girls into the car and sent Azie to the Kelana Jaya LRT Station. On the way back, we did out customary stop at the University Garden 7-11 Store to get my Sun, and went looking for some crisps for the girls. Back home, and Bibik took over the girls by feeding them their lunch while they watched their 'Island Princess' vcd for the thousanth time.

I trawled through Star Jobs for anything interesting, and after finding an interesting one, I simply called to ask if a particular position has been filled. Aziah on the other line said it's still vacant and said that I can just come today as they are conducting walk-in interviews.

I then asked Bibik to iron my favourite white shirt and jacket, and got down to print an updated resume. Untie Wan and Untie Laila came, and after a quickly taken lunch, I left home at 2pm. I go the hotel at 230pm, and was ushered into a waiting room to fill up the application form. There were 6 other people in the room, and my turn eventually came at 4pm to meet En Rafi. I initially thought Rafi was the HR Manager, in actual fact he is the GM. As he went through my resume, he noticed that I worked at the KL Hilton, where he was also working as an Income Auditor with Ms Tham!! Since he worked under the same GM, Mr Andreas Bossard, I don't understand why I can't remember him. Anyway, the interview went well, and I believe I sold myself well. He promised to get back to me by early next week.

When I got out, it was raining cats and dogs. Azie said KL was packed so she'll stay back to finish her work, so I went straight home. Azie SMS's me to pick her up at 730pm, so I bundled the girls into the car and brought her home, and stopped over at Selera Utara for supper of Kuey Teow. By the time we got home its bedtime for the girls, so I became their human rocking chair and managed to put them to sleep by 11pm.

Pretty happy with today, and hope that something fruitfull will come out of it, insyallah.
