Job Interviews (firsts)

Wow, can you get more nervous than that?

I got my very first job interview tomorrow, which i’m really really looking forward to, but at the same time dead scared about. its a great opportunity for me and i don’t want to screw up.

I’ve been told by the employer that its going to be an informal interview, which made me go, oh what on earth am i going to wear. now the position I applied for is a casual position but then again not too casual. so casual clothing is not an option. i decided on smart casual. which would have that classy smart look to it but at the same time be laid-back and not overpowering.

So I was nervous on whats gonna happen and what I’m going to say, and I decided to play it cool, take a deep breath, answer any questions he may ask me, be polite and respectful, but most importantly as cliche as it is, BE YOURSELF.

Confession Pages?

So I’ve seen that a few schools have put up “Confession Pages” on Facebook. Kids can anonymously confess  to anything from something that they did that they feel guilty for or coming out of the closet.

I’ve seen some of these posts and a lot of these people put up bogus stuff just for fun, which I think is wrong in a place like that. it prevents people from actually helping or wanting to post stuff that are serious.

I love the idea though and think its great for troubled kids and I’m happy to see this sort of a thing pop up in our country. I hope people take some stuff seriously though.

Blogging?

The Internet is full of blogs, some have the time to read them and some don’t  yet people post so many entries just to put out an opinion, I’ve come to the conclusion that a blog is a window into the mind of a blogger and all his opinions.

I’ve always wanted to blog but I never really got into it until now, I’m studying for my Higher National Diploma in Interactive Media at SAITM a local private university and a lecturer made it mandatory that we have a blog, also noting it a pass criteria for the subject. I think think he did something great, honestly I would have never got around to blogging if not.

In addition to all the normal posts he wants up there, I will treat this blog as my own and post anything and everything that crosses my mind. Which I hope a lot of my classmates do, because it encourages us to put forth our opinions, communicate with  society and helps us express ourselves more.
