2. The job fair in school is depressing for a social science student, like me.
Scenario yesterday afternoon:
Me: Hi Miss! I am from the school of social science, and my course is European Studies. Do you accept students with that background?
Lady from a research firm: (stares for a long time) Uhmm. We are currently doing a research for Coca-Cola Philippines. blah blah blah [I forget what she mentioned exactly about Coca-Cola]
Me: Oooooh. Um, so can I still apply?
Lady: Sure. When are you graduating?
Me: This March
Lady: So can you start on April or May?
Me: Umm, maybe May or June... (hands over the resume) Thank you!
Scenario this afternoon:
Me: Hi! I am from the school of social science, and my course is European Studies. Do you accept students with that background? And what are your current vacant positions
Lady from another research firm: Well, we are currently in need of analysts and researchers for different products, markets... blah blah blah The HR will do the matching with the skills that the applicants have with what the company needs.
Me: Okay. Can I still pass my resume?
Lady: Of course. We'll call you if we have a vacancy.
Me: Okay great. Thank you! (Hands over resume)
Dude behind me: Hi! I'm from the School of Management, and I'm wondering if you would accept students from my course?
Lady: (excited voice) Oh yes we do. Since your background in market research... [was walking away]
Really depressing. :-|
3. I feel talentless. I don't have creative skills - drawing, writing, singing or dancing, nor am I over the top passionate about something. I am a blah - your average university student.
4. Spain doesn't seem to be exciting anymore :-|
5. I'll be "age-ing" next week, and I feel I have not accomplished something awesome/great in my life. Am I that boring?
Enough of the emo rambling. :-) Here's my new favorite song, (well) to cheer me (or you) up :-)
