Where Do I Go From Here?

I’ve talked to a friend the other day about her campus life, which had made me pondering for few days about our topics. Campus life. I’ve always loved my study years; 2nd best thing I had ever experienced in my life. When I was in a varsity, I had always dreamed of studying abroad. Maybe to pursue with MBA or something related to accountancy, and it has to be in UK to be exact. But I never did by the way. I was graduated in local university and until today I’ve never pursued my original intention. It seems to have been buried to don’t know where.

One of my fellow gym friends is pursuing her Master now in NYU and SP is going to further her study in Switzerland. I’ve to admit that this have tickled my brain to reconsider my original plan. But then again, this time the biological clock is the issue. I know it shouldn’t be a barrier to upgrade myself, but I’ve to admit that I’ve started my career a tad late compared to other people of my age. This is because my Diploma and Degree had taken quite a significant amount of time from me. So, by the time I graduated in 2003, my so called age-batch have been in their career life for at least 2 years. I wished I had graduated early then I should have been in a higher position than my current position now. Gosh ! I’ve never thought that 2 years would make a significant difference.

So, due to that issue; fear of being left out in the real world, I’ve always postponed my intention to upgrade myself. Yeah, you may think that I’m conservative and narrow but believe it or not, that’s the fact. I know it because it has a great impact to me now. I’m 2 steps behind from what I should have achieved at my age now, just because I had graduated 2 years late than when it should be. Well for the record, I didn’t extend because I had failed in any of my subject by the way. Let’s just say that I didn’t make a correct move somewhere in between. That’s just 2 years. I don’t think I can afford to spare another 2 years for my higher qualification, which at the end of the day I’m not so sure whether that piece of paper can secure a better position in any of the organization. I might not need it, for all I know (just like now) and surely I don’t want to start from a scratch. That would be a nightmare.

Well, of course there is Plan B. To pursue with professional papers/qualification. By the end of the day, I’ll have a tail to my name and it looks damn smart on business card by the way. But that’s not the point. Hee. So, the plan is to do my ACCA or CIMA or CPA or MIT or any accounting-related professional qualification, just to add value to myself. At least I’ve something to sell if I wanna attend any interview. Alas, it didn’t turn up like how I wanted it to be. I must tell you, to get back to the books is not an easy job. That’s why people say, continue to pursue in anything while the passion is still there or to be exact, right after graduation; where the brain is still well lubricated and the machine is in a tip top condition. The original route was, to take any of those qualification, then work in accounting firms for few years to gain experience, then the final stop would be in a taxation line. I wanna become one of them top people in this line for some particular reasons. But since I’m in banking line now, the path towards that direction seems to get very blurry as the days passed by. Maybe it’s about time to forget it and just focus in what I’m doing now.

In my line now, we have this professional qualification called CCP, which I did that by the way. Yayy. But I still envy with my friends who are pursuing their MBA or any of them professional qualification in overseas now. I want that too, but I’ve to accept the fact that not all of us have the resources. What I don’t have is time. Unless, I further my study and at the same time I can work part time in Credit Suisse Group or Merrill Lynch & Co. Inc, and subsequently secured a position in those organization, heck I will fill in the form and fly right away. But then again, good thing doesn’t come easily. It has to be earned. I just don’t know whether I’ve time for that.

So, with a piece of paper called a degree and a tail to my name, where do I go from here? I really don’t know, and I’ve to admit that this is kinda terrifying.

I Discover This…

I slept early last night. I think around 9.30 pm. Then I woke up at 1.30 am just now. Don’t feel like sleeping anymore. Did my sports news reading and some maintenance to this space. Ever since I’ve hooked with Facebook (thanks to UV), I’ve seldomly done my weekly ‘cleaning’ to this blog. Few spam comments caught. Cleaned that. Tried few times to change the page theme but ended up still using this one. The simplest and neatest ever. I like. Then, when I wanted to approve some other comments, I saw this from my dashboard. It’s the search engine box that contains the terms people used to find my blog.

Noticed the one in red box? Actually, this wasn’t the first attempt. The terms apparently appeared in this box few times before this. I wonder what he/she wanted to know about it? I wasn’t even there when Kenny TT with Renee. Heehee. And I also wanna know who wants to be like Jason Bourne? Hahaa. Suddenly I feel this thing is amusing. Something for me to giggle at in this very cold morning. Will look for something funnier later.

Blackberry vs. Blueberry

I had this long meeting with customer today in office. My immediate boss was in the meeting room with me. Then my big boss decided to join us. The meeting went well till at the very end of the meeting, when we wanted to mark our calendar for our next meet up, suddenly my big boss said to me,

“Superlady, can you help me to get my BLUEBERRY on my table.”

I noticed that one of the representatives from my customer’ side (of younger age) smiled upon hearing that. It may not sound funny to you now, but it was at that moment. I really wanna laugh that time but I hold my thought and walked out from the room and laughed outside.

I wonder, is it too confusing to pronounce blackberry and blueberry (because that wasn’t my first encounter)? If yes, can we sue the creator of blackberry (for coming up with such name) for corporate embarrassment? No?

C’mon ! Don’t PRETEND To Be Smart….

….because you will look super silly when I caught you red handed. Just take away your hypocrisy because you will look so dumb when I let you eat your own words !

You know I can be this super sarcastic when it comes to stupidity, right?

What’s Wrong With A Proper Planning?

Called me a fussy lady but I really appreciate proper planning. Why? Because I don’t wanna waste my time waiting for people without a proper planning. God knows how much I don’t like unpunctual people. Sighs………

So, there’s nothing wrong with a proper planning. Still wanna call me a fussy lady?

This Is Sad News

I just heard the news about the little girl who had been raped and brutally killed the other day, is identified (via DNA test) as the little girl who had been kidnapped from Pasar Malam in Wangsa Maju. Oh no. Wonder what was in the criminal’s mind? So sick and mentally damaged. Well, not so sure how’s the identification works. According to my sister (CSI freak), DNA will never lie. But the parents confirmed that the DB is not their missing daughter, based on the physical identification. Whatever it is, I feel so sorry for this family.

So I heard from telly this morning, they discussed about this matter. A man was interviewed via phone (not sure who, but he is a ’somebody’ in the medical line or has something to do with them coroners ). The hosts asked him about his opinion on the DNA test on the poor girl and there he talked about what is a DNA test. He didn’t answer the question. So not smart. Why bother people about what is a DNA or what is a DNA test. We don’t bother. We just wanna know his stands on the DNA test conducted on the girl. God knows what he rambled and I think the producer had to cut off his line. Tskkk….

Come to think of this, how not safe are the kids in our country now. So many incidents that involved kids being sexually abused. Wonder what these people are thinking? How can they be this sick and cruel? Where goes the mercy for the minor? What had made them thought that they didn’t have any solution for whatever problem they have? What had made them become so heartless? I’ve no answer to all these……..
