Not long ago I was so saturated with the fact that I could not get a job AND had yet to possess a PR. I could not tell where I would end up... procrastination was far from being written in my agenda, not even close. Whilst great deals of impetus had consistently been part of my unprogrammed plan. Frankly, I had done everything single thing that I could have possibly performed to get to where I wanted to be, to bring my daily more in line with that of my objective. Quite ironically but not unpredictably I was left with limbo with full of frustrations at times. I.e. things just did not turn my way. Kinda confessing to a friend of mine, I was then told this "your time will come". Till then I understand what it really means.
The lingering doubt had finally ended, my eagerly long-waited Aussie PR was finally granted successfully!!! A mixture of hectic schedule was also underway and playing a large part of my routine. The overlapping duties, or more appropriately my 'jobs' were that I was already working for 3G Hutchison Telecommunication, and as usual my petty income from private tutoring. John is my boss from 3G, who appreciates my efforts and has given me the opportunity to work under his realm. Though it is more down to him being shorthanded I reckon as a result of his expanding business in Perth. An overriding issue somehow sets in the day, which tends to have cooled off or I thought I had found my feet over the periods if you like. Anyway, the superseding issue is....... A new job offer came in! Well, it is much more than a job I highly regard it as a career.
Now, everything seems to go my way. A position that I have been longing for bl**dy g*dd*mn eight months. So there I went, having been through two interviews as well as a relatively long phone call with one of the partners. The timing of such offer coming in cannot be any more magical. But wait a sec, what happens to my current position then? A headache goes whilst another replaces, doesn't it? That is the law of reality. I was only left finding out that John - my current boss - has put me under his 'big plan' of business expansion in W.A. I am confident to say this; the newly adjusted offer that John outlaid before me on the coffee table was very exceptional for a new graduate. To be honest, I feel absolutely flattered and I dare going a bit further - honoured. In comparison, nothing should be taken for granted from that of accounting position to this one. What captivates me really is to get a feel of becoming an accountant. Hey Will, have ya made up your mind yet? YES!!! Wait a minute, maybe no... what if I stay? Will there be turning back?....... maybe I should stay on... no no.. I should move for that......NOOO!! AArrrgghhhh!!!
So much thinking was done, I thought to myself if I go for what I studied for, I may regret one day for not undertaking such an extremely rare career prospect. Again, if I do stay on and ultimately get promoted to a store manager by telling off myself what I initially wanted to do I may even regret more badly.
Alright people, don't really want to linger on this subject for too long but I think that pretty much wraps up how my life has been over the past eight months or so. Up to this point in time, it is absolute highlight of my year. It is also more than anything I could ever ask for from god.
P/s: It is my greatest gratitude of all to John Tan, Pasinotti Lim & Chong.
