To Cheok Liang: Here's the update!

Now that I've got extra time on my hands, it's time for an update.

Dear Blog,
I apologise for neglecting you over the past few months. You see, the past two months have been really hectic as I was struggling to finish my thesis in time before my supervisor went off two weeks earlier than the submission date.
I've finally handed in the thesis and although I picked up several mistakes after submission, I choose not to care about the damn thing or worry too much. 'What's done is done' and it is perhaps a good idea for me to just let go and relax. After all, it has been a long year and I do deserve a holiday.

So what's next for me?
Truth is, I don't know. My PR has not been granted and probably won't be granted that soon anyway seeing as how they opened a new processing center in Brisbane and my application got shipped there. Hopefully I'll get it before the job recruitment season in March so that I don't miss out. Otherwise, I might just apply for a demonstrating job in the Uni. Heard they pay well! I'm not really fussy about how much I earn at the moment, as long as I earn enough to be independent and not depend on mum and dad anymore. I'm a big girl now :)
(Bro's Uni fees is freakin ex weh....luckily exchange rate dropped abit)

I'll be going back to my beloved home country in about a week's time. Funny how it still seems so far away. Now that I'm more relaxed and not rushing to finish anything (other than prep-ing for the oral defence), time is much slower. I wake up once after 8 hours of sleep (my biological clock..can't help it), squint at the clock and then go back to sleep for another 2 hours.
Ahh, haven't done that in a while. Might as well enjoy that luxury before I start working :P

Speaking of work, I think I'm ready. I know I'm ready. I'm actually pretty excited to start working although I have no clue as to where to start looking. I'd probably stick to what I know best, then maybe deviate in the future. Besides, the economy isn't doing that well right now, it's probably going to be a tough battle looking for jobs, especially in the Finance sector.
Speaking of, I did try to apply to some pharmaceutical companies seeking internships. Nobody even read my resume. That sucks. I was looking forward to an internship when I got home, rather than just slouching around the house for a couple of months!
Like I told my housemates, maybe I'll take up sewing lessons! LOL

Ok then, that's it from me now.
Totally excited about going home and nervous about the Oral defence thing.
Wish me luck! :)
