Sewing

 Second day without touching my laptop… I felt strange and guilty… Well, I have learnt how to hem my jeans. Most of the jeans were too long cos I bought them online. If buy at the shop, can ask them to hem… Weekend just passed and I spent one day clearing stuff and another day to hem the jeans. Two jeans… planned 5 jeans. I have never hem a jean before. First one I almost cut to knee length. Lucky thing Aunty came into the room and I asked her… a totally none related thing but she reminded me of something of what not to do. She done it differently from Youtube. Youtube just fold and saw the folded part together. She saved me from killing the jean… She said she once taught someone and she really cut off without considering the folded hem… I almost did too and what’s worst, I doubled the length I need to cut. I fold to where I want. Instead of cutting the bottom, I want to cut the top… crazy…

After a while I realised, I need to consider the hem and not keeping the original. First Jean nicely done. 2nd one based on first but because I was over confident, I considered less. I know where to fold and where to cut… I accidentally cut the one that was underneath a bit which was the one I need to keep… Argh… Well I tried to repair. If only I can use the sewing machine to draw. The third one have to wait till tmr cos my sis is sleeping. Then I will be back to do the app even though I applied for leaves… Actually, on leave or not or weekend or not, what is the difference…

Cuts

 I finished doing my wallet without cutting myself. I got a poke from the needle though but it was alright. Only that one time. The rest I found a way to prevent that. The cutting mat has been very useful and now it’s filled with holes. Today I got my first cut of the year. Fengshui’s problem. I was taking something from the dark corner near the kitchen sink at work. Was opening the carton for umbrella. Someone asked me to take. When I was cashier, I normally took it myself instead of calling someone unless really necessary. I have cut away the tape but the tape side sick to the wall so I pulled it and I couldn’t remember but just felt sharp pain on my left palm. My left hand gave way after the cover flipped open and the knife on the right hand slashed my palm. Sigh, I should have close it before pulling the cover. It failed to open the first time so I slide it out to cut a second time but worry it didn’t open and kept it that way. Should have trust my instinct.  I also think ...

Bank

 A bank asked me to apply for their job. I was a bit skeptical whether it was scam. After a few conversations, it seemed legit. They needed my updated resume. I didn’t have. Go back to my old canva, then dragged out the old one. I realised I have a Word document ones after I sent the pdf ones. I should have just used the Word document because it was the latest. Anyway, I don’t have finance background so I might not get it. Based on their requirements, I think there are lots of things I have not yet explored. However, if I can finish my task earlier, maybe I can go for a test or two to see what are the skills that I lacked of. I felt a bit off because I just kept on doing uwp… I also needed to back up against my current job because I felt insecure about it, based on the recent months I was there. I am not sure if they want me there just to solve few issues then once solved then don’t need me anymore. Because every moment I was there, I felt a bit like it. They are also spending quit...

Peculiar

 Not sure how I should feel. Good or bad. Mum used to be very good with tech. Well, yesterday, have spent two hours over the phone just to help her log in to my account. In the end, she only managed to download and update her Netflix app on her iPad. iPad actually a bit different from Android so she has lots of difficulty linking App Store is equivalent to Google Play… When I said search, she literally search by her eyes… I cannot help but laugh at myself. Programmer and code did the same. I am not around so I can only do these for her. Sigh… Should have gave her a tutorial during CNY…  My screen is back… The touch screen I bought previously so that it is easier for me to do work. The pc that I bought previously is a good investment in the end. Thank God or the manufacturer that both working fine so far.
