Actually, I was kind of surprised it was just me and one other guy who wore a suit, the rest wore jeans or other casual pants, with sneakers. I’d feel weird showing up like that…I mean I’m there to ask the Japanese state to fund my research, the least I could do is dress up XD
I also realized I rather enjoyed it. My conclusion: I need to get a job in which I have to wear a suit every day. OLã«ãªã‚ŠãŸã„
And yes, I’m a graduate student, so I applied to get a scholarship to do a master’s degree in Japan.
Well, good for you for wearing a suit for an important interview! At least you take care of your appearance and you care~ The art of dressing up has gone to the way side. Or even simply dressing professionally is going to the wayside.
I wear a suit every day, along with heels, for my internship. ALWAYS HAVE ALWAYS WILL. I just love them on me and men, haha! I think these clothes are professional, especially for work and interviews. Plenty of people wear suits still, but I think it's more in certain industries rather than across every industry.
What's funny is that I've always had this getup, and the rest of the interns at every place I've been look so casual in comparison. Jennifer has started wearing heels now and more colorful attire and she said it's because of me XD
A lot of my classmates wear sweatpants or "I just rolled out of bed" clothing and I can't imagine wearing that to class. It's not as though I'm dressed like I'm going to the ball, but I make sure to wear a nice coordinate, nice jewelry, and put some thought into it. My parents are that way too, even if it's just going to the grocery store or to the gym.
Opera clothes need to come back though. *drool* I yearn for the days of top hats, canes, cream scarves, and capes.
@MissUMana: Horse carriages are not banned here XD It's one thing on my bucket list. But they're all over the place and I've always liked them. Around 2AM is when they go back to the stables. I would know as I live near one and I hear the horses going by my window on their way.
Robyn, one of the attorneys here, it's her last day! I'm going to miss her. She's so quick-witted, sharp, intelligent, nice, and funny. Man. *SNIFF*
Omg I'm applying for my dorm in China. SO EXCITING :BBB The rooms look great! ^^
