PACKED

I kind of miss boredom now.

I got a part-time job at The Faceshop, it's a really good cosmetics brand and they don't usually hire girls my age. My friends are all dying to work at shops like this and I did too! And it's fun, but two weeks of training is killing me. I had to go there every single day for two weeks and read everything about everything. On top of that I had to and still need to study different skin types and know all these stupid chemicals and ingredients (for every product and there are so many skin care products at THEFACESHOP it's crazy). My major is now officially cosmetics! I swear I even made notes and stuff, and they made me read a book on not just about THEFACESHOP stuff but about being a good sales assistant, about crossing the chasm! And my manager is super STRICT!

At first I was searching for internships at academies and translating work and all but I gave up on searching and calling and e-mailing because they never replied! But yeah, I agree with them I wouldn't want a high school student to work for me if I were them as well.

BUT! I got a job! Yeah another job besides testing different eyeliners and face mists. Well it was my friend's job but she found this person to tutor so she declined and introduced me! It starts in December, and I'm going to TA for this English teacher, he's from the States and yeap. Will be doing simple things like printing, spelling checks, marking, and even cleaning or getting coffee, sending out text messages to parents (this is going to be fun) and etc etc. Having a meeting with the head teacher tomorrow, we're going to discuss my pay! I don't know how much I should call, she told me to think about it...maybe it'd be easier if she just told me how much she'd like to pay me...yeah that would be so much better. My friends AND my mum's friends are saying \10,000 per hour is perfect but I think that's too much. I don't know but I'm happy! Yay!

So in December, I will be working everyday! On weekdays I'm going to be TA-ing and on the weekends I'm going to be selling make-up and skin care products! I'm dying already so I don't know how I'll be able to cope with things in December. KSAT is over so everyone's having dinners and going karaokes (it's Korea), there are too many that some of them actually clash so I have to CHOOSE. It's not about deciding whether to go or not, it's about deciding which. GLAD reunion is this Saturday and I might not be able to make it because of cosmetics! This is just sad.

My school also decided to do the register at Lotte World so I had to take the bus with my friends to get there. Of course we didn't want to ride roller coasters in this weather with seniors from 30 other high schools so we just went straight back home and played Wii. It's better than waiting for hours to ride one roller coaster. And I was supposed to go to training at THEFACESHOP today as well but I decided to lie (I felt bad) and say that I was sick because I was SO tired! I slept at 6PM today because I was so sleepy and tired.I I swear I was getting less and less sleep each day, and school ends at freaking 12PM now. That's like four hours earlier than usual and I can't even take a nap!

Tomorrow, my school is forcing every senior student to watch a movie at like 8AM in the morning, so I need to go to Lotte Cinema by 7:40AM, that's in three hours. Yesterday they forced us to go all the way to Daehak-ro to watch this boring musical, I don't know why they think they're so cool for arranging things like this for us. Anyway, I'm watching Breaking Dawn part 2 because that's the only movie I haven't watched. After that I am going to karaoke with my friends and AFTER that I have to go to the academy to discuss my pay and my job and after thaaaaaaaaaaaat I need to go for training and I need to look like I'm sick. And somewhere in between I need to have lunch and dinner. THEN I'M FREE! My friend actually invited me to her open house party but I can't make it anymore, I have no place to squeeze that in.

This is a huge confession but sometimes I'm too tired to even erase my make-up. It's so gross, and I slept without taking my contact lens off a couple of times already.

Oh and two days ago, I dyed my hair to dark brown and I got light brown highlights, it looks awesome, so I'm happy. My friend forced me to dye it while she got hers permed so that she won't have to be alone and I'm really glad she did. Getting mine permed too in two weeks!



Congrats to those who got offers! There are lots of smarties in KL, oh and there's one in Indonesia too, Min Ji got offers from Durham and Warwick! So happy for her.
