It’s time to shake the dust from this faithful blog of mine and start filling up its belly again with my spewful chatter! It’s been on a diet from words these past few months and I’m sure it would love to stuff itself silly again – lucky I’m here to please.
Lots of stuff has come and gone these past five months that I’ve been back – gosh, time does pass pretty quick when you sit back to look back. I’ve turned 23 (eep, halfway to 46!), bought ANOTHER cat (on my way to being a cat lady), started my final semester of uni (I’m a pre-graduate after four and a half years), and I applied to be a host for ABC’s new children channel, ABC3.
Let’s talk about ABC3 for a while… About a month ago, ABC shouted out for people to apply to be hosts for their new channel to be released at the end of this year. You had to fill out their application form, shoot a two minute video, send in a few photos of yourself and wish, wish, wish! Hopefully they will answer your wish and invite you back for their next round of grueling auditions (note the stress on ‘hopefully’).
Anyway after two weeks of wishing and hoping, today was the last day for applicants to expect a callback to move on to the next round of selections. Sadly for moi, I wasn’t one of the lucky 41 outta over 5000 people. But holy moly guacamole, knowing you were rejected for an unknown reason sure doesn’t feel very good (more about this later). If there is any consolation, finding out only a small number of people made it through made me feel a little better, not by much but a little…got to grab what you can!
Huu, I guess realistically there had to be the successful and the not-so-successful – the way of life, keeping the balance, ying and yang blah blah. Whatever! =) To the successful, congratulations for getting into the next round. To the not-so-successful, would it seem evil if we were to voodoo doll the successful ones and then the ABC will have to call out for a second shortlist? Fufufu…drop me line.
