I have been offered a job in direct marketing which means there's no basic salary but only commission. I see this as a challenging job but at the mean time is also a risky job. My salary will be unstable that might include not having any money to spend for a week if i don't work hard.
Even though this job is really risky, I still see as an opportunity from God. As I need some experience and learn how to communicate with people. At first i was feeling scared because I am afraid that i might be wasting money and not earning at all. But sometimes we need to do some sacrifice before we can gain back what we meant to have.
I went for a trial with the marketers there for a day to see how they work and talk to customers. I know I am a foreigner in Brisbane, the people still treated us very well. The trainer that i was assigned to is from Africa and she's a really nice person. She can really talk a lot too. The one thing i hate the most on the day itself was my shoe. It was so uncomfortable and was also painful. The product that they were promoting that day was Heart Diseases Research. Its trying to ask donation from people so that the researchers are able to carry out the research on how to prevent heart attacks happen. So this is a good cause!!! Oh ya, we also went to the construction site. The guys there were so sweet and half of them are scared of their gfs and wives. So funny when we're there hearing their stories. It was fun chatting with them and i actually enjoy it under the hot sun. Haha...
So I am looking forward working this job is coming Monday which is on the 21st April!

At this moment I am really missing home. I wonder how my life would be now if I am back in Kuching. Will i be working full time or still hanging around at home and going out with friends. I guess I will never know how it will be since I choose the path to be in Brisbane.
How I wish I can be divided in two places which is to be with KW in Brisbane and my parents in Kuching. The time I have when I am back in Kuching will never be enough as everyday is meaningful to me even when my mum is nagging it seems like a song. haha...
Work at the kebab shop at the moment does not seems to be going well as my manager thinks that someone is stealing the money and everyone seems to be in fear of touching the till. Who wouldn't right? Especially when your a suspect. He says that he will look into the matter and might even ask the police to look into it. The shop has always lose its money and only now the manager is looking into this matter. I guess no one will want to touch the till anymore.
Even working at a kebab shop seems to be a stressful job. But i am trying to relax myself by going to classes at the health club. I am trying to burn off my calories and fat in my body to have a fitter body. I must try hard to attend as many classes so that i won't be wasting my money that i am paying and trying to keep my mind occupied in order not to simply think about other things.
SO SHEILA YOU CAN DO IT!!! HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF AND GOD!!!
