it'd been a really long while since i blog. months. b4 my weddin till nw mid jan of 2013. time flies. things changed.
mid of jan oso means 2012 was gone for 1/2 a mth le. & it oso means i been in a new job for 1/2 a mth le. alot of things ve changed within this 1-2 yr. & of cos for 2013 on, i shall strive to save up. m quite surprise tt though i had depleted most of my savins & earnin fr part time jobs & 1x bursary durin my uni, managed to actually help though not like 1/2 1/2 but at least managed to help in significant amt for d hse reno, furniture, electrical appliances, & oso weddin stuff. & we r totally loan free except d HDB loan la & dear's car's loan. nw tt all those were over, it's time to save up even for rainy days & mayb a honeymoon trip too.
anw, though i got a new job startin in 2013, i'm still stuck in d same place, same buildin whr i had been for d past few yrs despite diff roles. i'm back to confuse ppl again. haha. gotten dis job is really quite a blessin & gd fortune. towards d end of last yr, i got no time to job search but 1 day durin a briefin, bump to my dept DD & she asked once again on my contract duration then. it was d 2nd time tt she asked me & so i ask if thr is any position available & indeed thr is. i expressed my interest but at d same time worried hw to break d news to my boss (previous). but he not only was alright w it but asked me about d grade & encourage me to proceed. tt time, i alrdy passed him my weddin invite & i felt so bad cos i would leave like really soon aft my weddin break. last week at my new desk, my ex-boss saw me & he asked hw is my new job & some sort of if my new boss is ok. my colleague beside me heard tt & even till nw, she still said my ex-boss is v nice. ya. he's a nice guy. jus tt he is strict to his staff/student but cant blame him. he got to achieve his KPI & he got other roles s well. so i nvr blame him.
d reason y i took up dis job which is totally diff fr my degree is cos actually i don intend to stay in research for long. research depends on experiment. may not work at times & can b demoralizin. furthermore, i got no intention to further on for Ph.D & so unless i stayed s a PO forever if not i shall not expect too much changes in my pay or so. plus, d location is saturated ard west & south. all r so far fr hm. thus, i decided to swop to admin based job if i got d chance but though i got several part time b4, i guess is v hard to convince w/o pay cut or so cos all my part time r really short term. submitted several application but failed to get a response. so at least nw i get my fair chance to gain experience for future.
it's funny tt i decided & insisted tt i don wanna study anymore when ppl ask if i wanna pursue Ph.D & tt d degree is such a struggle for me but aft i cfm i will get dis job, i actually tot of mayb pursue a part time master or even a degree if thr is no higher grade. but tt is cos i was hopin to get a cert to further enhance my stand in such position or even higher if thr r better prospect. i guess i m really hopin i can save more also ba & also aimin to clear our housin loan in shorter time span & hopefully for a better future. anw, i shall c hw it goes. esp my savin plan for nw to further study oso need $. haha.
