I accidentally clicked on my own blog and realized its been long since I last update. Time really files and its time for the next phase of my life. I do update my Facebook regularly because it is so convenient and it just a sentence or two or even post picture; I am able to describe how I am feeling or stuff along that line.
Blogging to me its like going through a reflection process, looking back from the time I last blog and also leaving more detailed description of how I felt after a event. I only blog when I have the time thus I can think through things more thoroughly ... AWESOME ... It's being such a long time since I last used this word ! X)
Since, I last blogged, several important events has passed, packing and shipping my stuff back to Singapore, parents coming to Melbourne and help me with the rest of my stuff, attending my graduation, my graduation ceremony, going back to Singapore, catching up with my friends, getting to Singapore all over again, unpacking my stuff, see doctor regarding my face, going back to Dad's hometown for Chinese New Year, visit my English teacher, finding jobs and going for interview.
This week is my last week of "holiday". Must be thankful to everything that had happen to me and also what I had hope and plan had also being carried out. I had always been thankful because I find myself lucky, didn't suffered any hardships and there is always a home for me where I know I know there is food and shelter.
I planned to take a month break since the day I land in Singapore because I need time to adjust my lifestyle and also work on my health. I truly experience how stress can be damaging, my "good friend" didn't come for months, acne suddenly breakout all over my face and my memory got really bad. Then maybe find job and start work around Mar.
I am starting work next Monday, which I am feel thankful that this goes according to what I had hoped and planned. Big company and at a accessible location, growth opportunities are there. Though it is not a job scope that I wanted but it is moving into the direction I wanted for myself. I take this job as a stepping stone for my ideal job. Pay is higher than I expected, company's worker's welfare not bad too.
Being fresh graduate, not knowing what you want is normal I guess. What we learnt is on books, however what needed of us is another thing. I guess getting into a similar industry to what I studied gives a better overview what I want to do and really can do. I hope to stay on in this company as long as I can.
I am thankful for the experience for studying overseas gives me the compose to go for interviews. My first engineering firm interview, I got the job. It was the ideal job for me but it has higher work hazards. After careful considerations, I decided to turn down the offer. After two weeks later, I got this job, better pay but desk bound.
Even after I signed the employment contract, I still feel a little empty with the job scope. A little scare because I can't see the end of the tunnel. Must be thankful for the people I meet, sometimes some people say the right words and the right time, makes me feel much better about my job.
I am ready for the job, I am going to fully utilized my "holiday" time. Manage to buy enough clothes for my first week of work and things that I need during work. I have enough rest and ready to move on to the next phase of life .
Hope I update my blog soon ... XS
