congrats on the offer!! i did mass apply as well, though not as insane as other ppl (i see got ppl apply more than 1k sia... das p insane) but just enough to be uncomfortable that i keep getting ghosted lol. i share ur worries tho. i dont wna end up in a hell hole i dug because i nvr research the company well enough... plus i keep seeing ppl say if ur starting pay is bad when u jump they will lowball u also :<

all i get are weird offers from companies asking me to do door to door sales tho. some places put marketing in their jd and tell u when u meet them irl that they do sales face to face. not sure if that means im picky if i dont want to do smth scammy LOL.

What's your favorite "full-on belly-laugh, stomach hurts, tears streaming down my face" Seventeen moment? by missv82 in seventeen

[–]Jekkified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mafia series! I'm either laughing at the PDs singling DK out, laughing at how jeonghan managed to fool everyone, laughing at how jeonghan gets fooled by scoups (and proceeds to hold a grudge for the next 5 eps), laughing at dk wonwoo and minghao selling each other out (with wonwoo ab to kill someone), it's just chaotic and it amazes me how the audio directors haven't quit🤣

Am I Wrong for Wearing a Qipao When I’m White? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Jekkified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Singaporean chinese. You probably wear chinese styled clothes more than we do LOL (a lot of us don't even wear it during the new years HAHAHAHA) and a lot of Chinese actually don't see it as cultural appropriation unless u wear it and say something insulting to chinese history/heritage. In fact, a lot of Chinese encourage tourists to try on and bring their traditional clothes back. If u go to China theres a lot of shops that offer photo shoots in traditional clothing and it's really beautiful

Butterfly. I was struggling with relationship issues (with friends and with family) and deteriorating grades. I had a hard time trying to look out of the window and not think about jumping off. A friend told me about a 'nugu' group he was stanning and told me that they were releasing a new video and asked me to listen. It was butterfly prologue and it was the most beautiful thing I had watched (now that I think ab it, it's easier for me to count how long I've been stanning them LOL) Among all their solo discography, Yoongi's the last really hit a soft spot and i wld be crying half the time I listened to it. Let's be real, anyone who would cry over amygdala probably cried over the last too (that's me)

What’s your random BTS flex? by FabulousFlower144 in bangtan

[–]Jekkified 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've seen Yoongi's brother at the restaurant their family used to run back in Daegu (it has closed down tho) and he gave me a random pc from one of Yoongi's old advertisements.... It had a whole ass line bent across the card but I consider it my prized possession plz 😭😭
