昨天AC完了也沒甚麼感覺，今天kevin發短信來問的時候也沒覺得甚麼。
但現在突然就緊張了。
就算是整個國家幾百個申請者中的top 19，得不到那還不是甚麼都不算。
ah…他們甚麼時候會打電話通知呀(._.)

今天上完film的tut，我真是越覺得那老師囧了。無語死了。
大學4年以來，第一次碰到這樣的老師。

其實我覺得，現在能夠說得上知道我回來以後狀態究竟如何的就只有sue和小孩。但小孩始終還不懂將來可能會面臨的壓力所以也還是那樣。同組的兩個大夫也許也懂，畢竟同組嘛。每個禮拜發生的事情都知道。
所以我不希望其他人憑著自己的臆想或直覺隨便判斷我。
我知道自己在做甚麼，也知道自己是甚麼身份。
不是我沒在考慮，不是我沒聽取意見。
謝謝。

我覺得自己那點爛毛病真的要克制要改的。
雖然不說但永遠覺得自己（吡a－－），真是要不斷地提醒自己（吡b－－）都是神給予的。
所以不能再認為自己（吡c－－）了。

I had my first AC today at Westpac, the first bank in Australia.

When I arrived there, went straight to reception desk and got my ID checked and received a visitor card so that I could enter the CBD Westpac building.

We’ve got 9 candidates for the afternoon session, during the information session we were told that they chose 19 of us out of hundreds of applicants nationwide. I wondered how many positions available in Quant…

I had group exercise first. 25 minutes reading time, then 3mins individual presentation time, after each member finished then started group discussion. It was funny that we were given 3 different scenarios and needed to choose 1 that has to put into immediate action. and I believe in this exercise, we were supposed to show our analytical skills, teamwork, and influence skills…since we were supposed to convince the others to get an over-all agreed decision. What I meant by “funny” was that four of us all chose scenario 1 and all had the same reasons. Nevertheless, it ran pretty well and I think everyone contributed evenly. I have to say, my team members were brilliant, and we all came up with all the different but useful suggestions accordingly. Before this I was so worried what I should do during the group task time. But later on, I found this is the least worried task I had since we were basically discussing with each other and presenting our ideas to the others who were actually in the same boat with us. It was not like you are doing an interview with some managers and 1-2 based, so less stress I suppose.

Interviews, I had two together without break..=.=” We were supposed to have each interview with two interviewers (one from banking and one from HR), the first one I had was with two guys from banking…and both were managers >< they asked quite a lot of questions, let me see if I still remember a few. *those short key words would be "tell me an example when you demonstrate …."*

1. tell me what you have done so far and why did you choose to do it.
2. responsibility
3. the most proud achievement
4. motivation question: why this program and what qualities you can bring
5. customer serving
6. analytical skill
7. they found out that I spent a lot of time doing debating, so they asked why didn’t I do law instead. (though that was a bit out of track XD)
8. they also asked me, you are doing ACTL which doesn’t really have anything to do with risk management….have you done anything in your courses relevant to RM?
9. what software do you use for your assignments?

the second interview was conducted by one HR and one banking. Since they found that I didn’t have a chance to take a break (as the first two managers were asking too many specific tough questions) HR gave me two questions and then the banking guy just asked me some random questions.

1. task, challenge you have faced and how did you plan to deal with it and how did the plan work
2. obstacles you had and how did you overcome it. Normally I would answer this questions with the answer for Q1..however since it was given out earlier and I had to come up with another example…I said the language barrier happened in my group project during my exchange in Japan…lol
3. what kind of assignments you have had? have you done confidence interval, derivatives, options etc…
4. again I was asked what software I can use…
5. why you chose to do film studies as your minor
6. blablabla I forgot..

Overall it was okay I guess, at least I learned quite a lot about Westpac culture and those people I met they were awesome =)

It’s time to cram for those two most expensive exams and prepare for my application ><

Ha! I didn't know that people around me are actually expecting me to have a boring and gray life without any excitements but continue in having a life which is only fully with burdens and pressures. Funny to find that out!

I will leave here one day eventually. To where I don't know, but so far I do know that I don't like here. I don't know any place in this world that I can call it as my "home", but good to know that I do have a home in the heaven, with the great God.

既然都MSN SPACE都改革換面了那我也轉換風格吧。

看看我有沒有本事每天堅持更新。一句兩句話也好，每天的笑料傷心事也好。

今天收到京大的成績了。唉，真懷念那種輕鬆瀟灑和愉快啊。

不用學習我都能拿到95分！UNSW你讓我情何以堪啊T-T

現在腦子里在想的事情如下：

1. 明天的assessment centre。我緊張啊>< 也不知道究竟要準備到什麽程度才算好
2. 我想那誰了。最近因為忙得要死也沒時間想，好久都沒skype過了= =+不過現在估計是因為人家說“I know you’ll rock, and I believe in you!!”所以才想的吧=。=
3. 那囧死人的essay終於被我搞定了，這個學期我在這兩門廢物課上浪費了多少時間啊= = 對我又沒幫助的。想起我媽的那個郵件我就崩潰……。
4. 過去幾天我基本都是早上5點睡，9點起；或者是3點睡，7點起。真TMD痛苦
5. 今天我要10：30睡，7點起。好好休息要不然明天肯定超沒狀態T-T
6. 我還是好緊張啊……。
7. 祝我好運吧，拜託啦！

以上。
