Big 4 networking. Facade. Facade. Facade.








In this world, everyone has their own agendas to live with. Today's Big 4 networking event proved my point.
.
1) The sincere enthusiast--> Goes around and do the real genuine networking stuff. And try their best to impress whoever that comes along. But too bad they are barking at the wrong trees. cuz' majority who are here today are small tiny puny fries.
2) The im pretty, im cute, come and approach me--> Does nothing except for standing around doing the shy demure small feet pointing inwards actions. blink blink.
3) The can't you see im here to look at pretty young things--> Darting eyes. desperately in search of their prey.
4) The i dont know anything. but im talented in pretending--> Looks totally interested and engrossed in the conversations. gives the other party complete attention, nodding at everything he says as if he is Jesus.
5) The i saved my stomach space since noon till 8pm, just for the splendid food. So get out of my way or i'll roar--> starts eating frantically immediately after the respective talks.
.
And for your info, i am a hard core no. 5. When the guy from E&Y was engaging Ade and me in his conversation, my eyes couldnt leave the food at all. It was love at first sight and i knew he wanted me as bad as i wanted him. So while the guy was explaining something to Ade, i secretly sneaked away. TOWARDS THE FOOD of course. :):):) yumyumyum.
.
Kelley: Eh. Im not gonna talk to them. Im just gonna stay here and eat first.
Hel: How come? Just go pretend to talk for a while!
Kelley: Eh these food cost me 15 bucks you know. Of cuz must eat more la! ( its a rule that if you back out from the networking event without a valid reason, there will be a penalty charge of 15 bucks)
Hel: Oh ya. you're absolutely right. (Continues gorging frantically)
.
Conclusion of the night: The food was great :) i lurrved the chocolate eclair and the sushi. AND i lurrved engaging in facaded conversations :)
