scarlet's walk

job hunting progress so far  
in the last 11 days (pretty much since i got back from qld), i have...
- applied for 20 jobs
- registered with 5 recruitment agencies
- had 1 job interview and am still waiting to hear back from it (turns out i haven't been rejected yet after all)

i guess that's not too bad. i am trying, but the hardest person to convince sometimes is myself.

------

on another note, i have concluded that i am a beauty product junkie. i could honestly spend hours browsing the makeup, perfume, and skincare sections of department stores. and i am well aware that this makes me sound like a complete and utter shallow wench...but whatever :)

Re:
lol, yeah, you wouldn't know with me either just by looking at me. i only wear makeup occassionally, and half the time i forget to brush my hair, let alone do anything glamourous with it, lol. i think that's half the fun sometimes though ;)

Re:
oooh, definitely! i love the packaging on beauty products - that's what draws me in the most, i think :) i think that's why i like the department stores, because they have all the big expensive brands that just look gorgeous in their displays, heh.
and, you're more than welcome for the chat - as i said hon, anytime!

Re:
yes, exactly! even though i'd never use most of them, i still like looking at them... because you never know when they might come in handy, lol.
and i love art supply stores too!

it isn't bad at all dear. i hope the people who will be reviewing your application have enough sense to hire you. if not, its totally their loss.

i'm not really a beauty product junkie...more of a stationary/book junkie...lol..

One more beauty product girl here... I especially like moisturizers/body lotions :) To the point where people are constantly pointing out that a) I have loads and loads of stuff in my bathroom, b) I don't need to buy a new moisturizer when I'm really wanting to buy one. Heh.

Also shoes, handbags, notebooks, books are my kind of products. Beauty products are nicer though since they're often a lot less expensive. (Luckily I'm not into really expensive beauty products.)

Oh gosh, me too!! Not make-up, but skincare and perfume... I would buy so many things, except I have so much already. I've been given toiletries as presents so often that I have a backlog, and I can't justify buying new things just to try them. :/

Re:

WOW!!! That's lots of work my dear!!! What ambition you have!!!!

I'm a product junkie myself, which is funny because I almost never wear makeup!!!! I usually only put on makeup for shows and stuff or when I go out (which isn't often). I just love getting new stuff, even if I only use it a few times. I can't go to the store without at least looking, if not purchasing a new item. Last week I found clearance bins and it was all over for me. I'm bad......

Love lotions too- we have a "bath and body works" place that is my absolute favorite!!!! You don't need perfume, the lotions smell awesome enough!!!!

Re:
yes, i love buying new stuff as well, i don't always do too well with using it though, lol ;) when i'm in a shop, i always have to look at the beauty products, and lately i've been so bad with buying stuff.
we don't have "bath and body works" here, but i've heard it's gorgeous :)

that's not bad at all! and i guess it's always about convincing oneself at first, but you can be sure that your hard work will pay off!
i'm into beauty products as well. esp. from the body shop. i love nice scented things :) i just love their white musk body lotion!!
