I received a letter about my work placement.
It says the company is an import & export company near Heather airport. It is a small company but busy. They are dealing in antique and so on, and they can provide me with drinks. And I need a basic tech knowledge.
My interview will be held on 7. August.
Now, I had better practice for interview.
I looked for Mark, a teacher of business class, and asked for the practice.





2.Aug.Thur. sunny, practice of interview

I did a practice for a job interview.
I was asked such questions;
"why do you want to work at this office?"
"what kind job have you done?"
I prepared answers for these questions.
"what do you think is your weak point?"
"well,,,sometimes I hurry to finish my task, and make a tiny mistake."
I thought this was not good answer.
And of course, Mark said, "that's not good, you can say,,,"I want to make it perfect and sometimes I care a tiny thing too much", how do you think of it?"
We did such a practice for thirty minutes, and I often had a trouble to answer.
It was much more difficult in English interview.
At last, Mark told me, "the most important thing is to show the attitude you are interested in their job. Always be positive."
Thanks, Mark.



3.Aug.Fri. sunny, cloudy and rainy, silk and Taiwanese

There was a surprising thing in general class.
We were talking about silk, which is produced from silkworms.
Camille, a Taiwanese woman, said, "it's pretty."
"What? What is pretty?"
"Silkworms, it is white, small, chubby, and cool."
"Oh, NO!" everyone was surprised very much.
Then the other Taiwanese girl added,
"That's right. In Taiwan, many children have a silkworm as their pet."
Are you sure?!
I felt culture difference very much.
