Just because it hasn’t come yet doesn’t mean you have to lose hope and give up on your dream. This is what I have been constantly telling myself the past few days. I’ve been waiting for something and right now I find ‘waiting’ a bit unbearable already. My family and friends say I should never surrender. A new friend tells me exactly the same thing. She’s been an inspiration and an encouraging force to me since Day 1.
It’s been a month since that fateful day. I was only armed with a pinch of confidence and an ounce of dogged determination. I was only strengthened by good intentions and a pure heart. In the beginning, I was a little nervous but eventually I took control of things. Or so I thought.
But it was not for me to decide. It was hers. That bespectacled woman in her late 40’s. She, who knew how to test my character. She, who knew how to make me feel vulnerable and helpless. She, who knew what difficult questions to ask. She, who knew everything at that time like the back of her hand.
God help me. I hope I pass my job interview. I need to.
Patience is indeed a virtue.
