Recent updates

I am getting busier and busier. There are so many things to do - I need to attend career talks, apply for jobs, prepare for interviews, read my textbooks, study for tests, do projects....Kinda overwhelm by the workload. It is piling up.
My greatest concern this semester is how to secure a good job. I am so worried that no compay wants to hire me. (Sob sob)
Last week, I have been to Barclays Capital career talk. The presentation wasn't that impressive but I love the remuneration and training programme that they offer. Selected graduated are given an opportunity to go through a one to two months of intensive training in UK (I find it really pretigious). Also the salary they offer is good. From $3500 onwards depending on your position. Looking through the jobs opening, I find that the most suitable position would be operation. I should be applying for this position in Barclays considering they have good training programme and good pay.
I have also plans to apply for other companies. In fact, yesterday I just applied for OCBC Management Trainee Programme. This job is something that I like more. I chose to be in the consumer banking division. Hopefully I can get it. Praying hard.
I will be applying the rest of these compaines:

1) EY - Auditor
2) Credit Suisse - Product Control
3) Barclays - Operations
4) Merill Lynch - Operations
5) DBS - Retail Banking
6) Standard Charted - Retail Banking
7) Citibank - Retail Banking
8) UOB - Retail Banking
Today I went out with my mum for hair loss treatement as recommended by Qiaoqin. The place is really far - Pasir Ris. But I desperately need a remedy for my hair loss problem so I went there despite the long distance. The treatement lasted for about 1.5 hrs. Mine cost $28 and my mum's cost $23. We also bought a hair shampoo which is recommended by the aunite for $20. Hopefully it will prevent my hair condition from getting worst.
Oh yeah. I also cut my hair today. It is quite short - Above shoulder length. No choice. I need to keep my hair shorter so that it is easier to manage.
