Days of my life

I have been a lazy blogger. I guess this is due to my busy schedule. I know I am not working and should be bumming but there is so much to do. I spend many days catching up on my reading, my favourite writer for the moment is Malcolm Gladwell. He writes so well, I can't put down his books. Now, I am a proud owner of most of his books.

If I am not reading, I will be out shopping with mum or meeting some friends for lunch or hanging with my bro who is having his holidays. I will try to play tennis twice a week with dad and bro. Even though everyday seems like Sunday to me, I love weekends. Friday nights are spent hanging out with his friends or mine. Sat nights are for dating, watching movies, theatre, food & wine. Sundays are lazy family days.

I spend most of the weekdays catching up on some courses and applying for jobs. The thing about changing career with an MBA is that you are neither here nor there. For some entry level jobs, you are seen as overqualified. For some mid level jobs, you lack the experience. I have been to interviews here and there and have been offered a position I would like to pursue. I plan to start work in July as I want to spend some time with my family travelling this June. This is the only month my Dad can get away from work and I am looking forward to our family trip. =)

Home Sweet Home

I am totally starting over a new chapter of my life with a new blog. Life has been great as an MBA student the past couple of years. See http://mbamelbourne.blogspot.com/. I didn't manage to blog my days in New York City in fall 2009 as I didn't even have enough time to sleep! Now I begin a new life back home in Singapore. Past couple of months have been awesome! I've been chilling, reading, meeting friends, pubbing, playing tennis and just spending time with my family. I missed them so much while I was away.

Now what bothers me the most is my career. After spending so much money and time pursuing my MBA, I do hope something sweet comes along at the end of it all. I have been working hard with my job applications and networking, hopefully something comes along really soon! *fingers crossed*
