Internship stresses me so much that I want to die already. Sent 4 email to 4 companies but then I lost 1/2 of the chance because 1 company email me and said that they have interns, and so, I cannot intern there. Then I screwed up the email that I sent to APE because I forgot to change the company name from &larry to APE. I went really crazy as i realized the mistake after I sent the letter to them.
Got to find some more companies or else I will be so dead for internship. Somemore now got packaging design and VAF which will be due next week. Then the agency thing, oh my god, I dun wan to like stress myself over those can't be understood political stuff.

Internship - I am scared that my portfolio is not good enough and the company will not hire me. This just show how not confident I am. I duno leh. If it is something that I like right, no matter what come into my way, I will still go for it. Yup!!! I should have this kind of spirit in me. Die then die loh, just send them mail, go for interview and present myself well in front of the interviewer lo. There is nothing to lose right???

My chance? All I need is just a chance to learn as much things as possible during my internship period. I really hope that DesignBridge will at least give me a chance for interview and let me experience my FIRST formal interview in design industry. Of course, I really wish that I can get to intern in there too!
Yeap I know, I know that I still do not have a fantastic portfolio now but who knows that I will not have one in the future.
I do not want to use CONNECTION to get into any company. I want to use my own power and will to get into the company. But now, I am kind of losing hope and scared. No one reply my intern email except for Brew. Maybe luck is not by my side this time round.
Try harder? How? No one can help me except for myself. I should find the answer myself. Just found it quite sad that I actually prepared 6 resumes, to be able to go for 6 interviews, but I have not gone for one at all till now.
Why chances are not given to me at all? I am so mentally prepared for the interview, done my portfolio nicely and did so much research of the companies that I wanted, yet nothing good came. I really want to get this done or else I would be worrying so much everyday. World is always not fair at all.

I wanted to get into Calibre so much because I admire their advertising photography style. I actually gave them a call last week and they said that they will get back to me but then they did not. I was dishearten and frustrated too because I have so much thing to do during this holiday. I would like to finish this ITP issue asap.

Went for cleo briefing and went to ION with ash and the rest. Ash asked me for my internship status and I told her that I still have not gotten a place yet. She actually encouraged me and it really gave me the courage to call up Calibre again. However, I got back the same reply as the previous one.
However, during dinner time, Calibre actually asked me to send them my portfolio to them. I was thrilled. It means that I would at least have a chance for interview.

Calibre called me up for interview. I was too shocked at that time. Hurriedly, I bathe and rush to their company for my interview. During the interview, I was very scare, however, the interviewer, Jeff, kept telling me about how their companies operate. Hoping for a YES from them after the interview, but it did not.
