Hellooooo?

Why did I have to sleep at 3am last night. WHY?

I got a phone interview this morning at 11am. Unfortunately I was still asleep when she called. So basically, the first impression I made was with my scary throaty voice, trying to clear my head. I guess she didn't notice since she plowed on right to the first question. What happened to the small talk?

I won't go into the gruesome details, but oh well, it was just a recruiter, not a school. And she seemed pretty upfront and honest. But I'm still on guard, too many rumours about recruiters floating around. Shortly after we said our goodbyes, she sent me an information form to fill out via email. So I take that as a good sign.

I really want a position in Seoul, but the recruiter was honest in saying they prefer Caucasians there (she wants me to take positions in surrounding towns). She went on to say how most foreigners found Seoul to be overcrowded, polluted, etc. I replied by saying I'm living in Hong Kong right now, and it doesn't bother me, in fact I enjoy living in a dirty and claustrophobic place. Well, not in those exact words.

New resolution, sleep earlier, wake up earlier, so next time I don't have to sound like I smoke 3 packs a day!
