Just the other day, I just realised that I had to make a decision that would determine my future. And that feeling sucks big time. I mean I'm 21 this year, and most of my friends at my age would probably be deciding which uni and what course they would want to take up, and here I was deciding which career path would I want to take which would somehow determine my future. It just sucks.
To add to the suckiness, I was so close to being accepted into SIA when Toshiba had to call and inform me that I was selected for their accounts assistant position*it was desire to work for an MNC when I graduated*. I was delighted that I got my wish, but at the same time thrown into a dilemna on whether I should choose my career as a flight stewardess or to work for an MNC which was my desire. All these had to be decided within a day. Help me.
In the end, I decided that if I didn't get through that round of interview for SIA, I would take up the Toshiba job. During the SIA interview, some part of me wanted them to kick me out so I could comfort myself with the fact that at least I got what I had desired. But I got through to the final round of interview and I had to give up my chance of working for an MNC, the feeling sucks when you have to give up something that you have always wanted. But I will be happy too if I get the job as a flight stewardess with SIA. At least I get to see the world, and at the same time get paid for it! :)
I guess the sentence "can't have the best of both worlds" holds true.

Hi Joy, so you mean you have passed the interview with SIA?
Hmm..they have many rounds of interviews..I'm waiting for the final interview this friday.:)
May i know how long is the period of the interview? Because you mentioned that there are many rounds of interviews, so it is over a period of? You don't want to further your studies anymore?
Hmm, the interview process started on the 25feb and lasted till now..this friday will be the final interview. yeah..so th whole process lasts about 1 month..I want to furher my studies, if my family could afford it, I wouldn't be applying at all, but everyone has their downs, so I have to work to save cash..so yeah, in two years I'll see how.
Ohh, by the way, Jasryl here. I saw your blog link through frienster. Enjoy reading your blog. But, unable to link yours as i am using livejournal. Where do you wish to further your studies? Overseas or local?
oh HEYHEY hahaha...you know probably local, overseas is way to pricy, even if I do save up enough to go overseas, I don't think I will.:) And if after two years*of of course if i do get the job*haha with SQ and I like it in there I might just stay on and work,.. and maybe consider not taking my degree anymore.:) how bout you? you gonna further your studies?
Maybe ACCA? I can't decide now. My results are not that good. So, i don't pin high hopes for myself. SQ is gonna be fun. But, after you started working, the chances is that you will probably not want to study anymore. :)
hahah thats what alot of people say. Oh well, I'll let you kknow after 2 years..wahaha..if i make it in in the first place..ACCA? cool...I think you should just try.No harm.
