My alarm woke me at exactly 5am and I am in good mood because today
is Interview day!

I start my day by getting bread from Scar's pantry for my toast and an
egg from Scar's fridge oh and also a water from her pitcher.

After the incident wherein I ask her if she can give me food she told me
to help myself. So Here I am helping myself with her food supplies. Bless her
heart such a good soul.

I cook my food and after that I take a bath and whatever we girls do in
our bathroom. I open my luggage to see what outfit should I wear for my
interview. My wardrobe is so vast *note the sarcasm*

I can only pick one outfit which is my uniform at the diner which consist
of a black slacks, a black flat shoes, a white short sleeves polo shirt.

I looked at the mirror and combed my shoulder length black hair. I adjusted
my eyeglasses and fix any wrinkles that can be seen on my clothes. I put
some chapsticks on my lips so I don't look dehydrated.

My brown eyes are twinkling from excitement. This is it! This interview
will make or break my future here in New York. I look at myself at the
mirror one last time and grab my bag and make my way out of the apartment.

I ask Scar about the transportation here and how can I reach the place for
my interview.

She told me to walk 5 blocks then there is a train station. I need to get off
the train on the third station and across the street the tallest building is my
office.

You might wonder why all her instructions have no street name or
anything because I am bad at names. There is a big chance that I'll get lost if
she told me names instead of numbers.

I can describe New York transpo in one word. Insane. There are so many
people! Yellow taxis everywhere! The traffic is not moving at all. The
people all walks fast as if hell hounds of hell is chasing them.

When I am watching them it gave me a feeling that I was late for work
which thankfully I am not. Their phase gives me the impression that every
second counts in this place. Compared to me I was walking like I have all
the time in my hand.

I went out on the train station and look for the tallest building and I was
not dissapointed.

Standing in front of me is a 100 floors sky scraper that has silver steel on
the corner with the name Kim corp. There is only one question in
my mind as of the moment. How can they clean all their windows outside
the building?

I look at my watch and check the time. I have one hour to spare. As I walk
near the building there are 4 revolving doors and 4 automatic glass doors.

What-the-actual-fudge? How many doors does a building have?

I enter the building and there is a guard on each door. There is a machine in
front of the guard that scan the ID's of the employees.

As I near one guard He stops me and ask for my business. Business?
What business?

"I don't have business sir but maybe someday. Instead I have an
interview."

The guard in a suit looked at me like I am insane and call someone on
his one piece earphone. Wait. Isn't earphones comes in pair?

Why does he only have one? I look at the other guards and they also has
only one earphone? Does the company have small budget because they let
their guards share 4 pairs of earphone and cut the cord and distribute it to
them? but I cannot see any cord. weird.

"You can Go in mam. Take the elevator and press number 10 look for
miss madeline."

He clicks something on the machine and the door automatically opens.
I thanked the guard and made my way through the reception. The wall is
painted in light brown with grey and so many colors. There is a chandelier
at the center that sparkles brightly. All of the employees here are
immaculately dressed. All in a business suit.
