Throughout the last week, I was having this book-reading marathon since I couldn't go online. I was reading the books that I bought from the very inexpensive bookstore - The Devil Wears Prada, Chasing After Harry Winston (Devil Wears Prada series), Thanks for The Memories, Sleeping Arrangements and The Host.
Oh my God. I have to tell you that The Host is really worth reading. It's written by Stephanie Meyer, author of the Twilight Saga and I'm telling you, whoever who has never read this book before is totally losing out. Just like the Twilight Series, The Host is unique in its very way and it definitely, absolutely has a very interesting storyline. Not a single page is boring. And the book is super thick! Thicker than any of the Twilight books. It's filled with suspense and you'll be filled with anticipation and your heart will pound faster (literally) as you go through the really, really suspenseful parts. It's also really touching and you MIGHT be crying at certain parts. Also, it's filled with unexpected surprises. I'm telling ya, you really need to go grab The Host and flip through it.
The Devil Wears Prada series are quite funny. You'll laugh out loud in some parts. At first I thought maybe the books might be boring, but surprisingly, it isn't. It's kinda hilarious, especially Chasing After Harry Winston. I have yet got to lay my hands on Everyone Worth Knowing, another book from the Devil Wears Prada series.
Cecilia Ahern's books are wonderful - as usual. P.S. I Love You, Where Rainbows End, If You Could See Me Now, A Place called here, Thanks for The Memories and The Gift are all amazing books. Each and every one of her books are unique and different. The way she tells each stories are not the same at all. Her books are touching and filled with lessons. After each story, you'll start thinking a little about life and the lessons that you've learned from the books. There's a new book from her called The Key for Tomorrow that I haven't read yet. I have yet to own that particular book and The Gift, a wonderful and really sad and touching story.
I have another goal in mind as well, that is to collect the whole Shopaholic Series. I didn't know that the series is supremely funny until I came across one of the books in the series and laughed myself crazy when I was reading it. It's the ultimate chick lit and really, really funny and interesting. You'll just shake your head and laugh at the many stupid things the main character does.
So the authors that I worship will be Cecelia Ahern, Stephanie Meyer, JK Rowling and one chinese author who writes Chinese novels. JK Rowling is one of the most extraordinary author with the really unexpected plots. Stephanie Meyer is forever creative in writing fictions that will leave you breathless while reading it. Cecelia Ahern writes touching real life stories filled with lessons and hopes that you'll never forget. They're just simply the best.
If you don't like reading, you better start. It's one of the epitome of life that you'll miss out.

The jerk
I've read an interview with this jerk in CLEO magazine's latest issue. Go check it out if you can, you'll hate him for sure.
"I can get any girls/women that I want" Yeah well, that's the quote for all-time losers. They THINK they're so high and mighty and all girls are falling head over heels for them but they're just deluded. Don't you know, losers, that in this modern world, girls could also be after u losers just for your money or for sex? Don't delude yourself into thinking that there are FEELINGS involved too - that's if you're an all-time jerk.
Anyways, yeah, if you're rich and hot, you can get inside anyone's(regardless of the gender) pants but whatever it is, you'll never ever get someone who'll love and accept you fully for who you are.
Dream on, losers.

THE Interview
So today was the interview for Taylor's World Class scholarship.
Before I talk about the interview, let me bangga-kan diri a little. XP
Ok, so this is a full tuition fee waiver scholarship that are being sponsored by corporate companies. There are 8 companies that sponsor for Business Studies so there'll be one recipient for each company. So there are around 4-5 shortlisted candidates that are being invited to the interview and according to the girl in charge, they received more than 200 applications for Business Studies but only 30 people were being shortlisted (including me). Haha
And after that, the corporate companies will then choose 4 or 5 candidates for themselves and I was being chosen by Loreal.
The interview was being conducted and seriously, it went really good. I impressed myself!! LOL. But the point is, it was really smooth and really well and my interview ended at around 1245.
So after that I went to Putrajaya with my dad to settle some stuff and I got a call from Taylor's to attend another interview under Siemens. So I went back for the interview. I then asked the lady in charge why do I have to go through this for another company and she told me that the previous interviewers HIGHLY RECOMMENDED me to participate in this interview. Which means, I lost my chance in Loreal. With furthur enquiries, I found out that Loreal was actually really impressed with my presentation and stuff but because there was another GUY that was equally impressive, they gave the scholarship to the GUY. This is soooo sexist!! Sex discrimination!!! Hahaha kidding. So they thought it was a waste that I couldn't get it (which I should, haha) so they wanted me to attend another one. And I don't know the result yet.
Oh and my dad was real helpful. He told me this,"If I were the interviewer and there's a guy and a girl who did really well, I'll choose the guy." Gee, thanks dad. I feel alot better now.
But anyways, whatever will be, will be. So cross your fingers for me peeps!

So. I hv to attend this Taylor's interview tomorrow at Lakeside Campus. If I'm successful, I'll be able to get a hundred percent scholarship. IF I'm succesful, that is. Rumours were that the scholarship is very hard to get and it is very, very limited.
Hopefully I'll be able to get a hundred percent scholarship in one way or another. I don't wanna pay for myself!!! T_T
Anyways, my partner company that has chosen me for the interview is Loreal. So there'll be people from Loreal joining the interrogation tomorrow. The pressure!!! And I have to do this power point presentation which I am gonna start doing soon.
Wish me luck peeps.
