So I broke one of my new year resolutions... I bought clothing. But at least I haven't bought any secondhand clothing so far, which my mum frowns upon. Being a Chinese babyboomer, she values items which are brand new, and worries about bad aura attached to some stranger's ex-belonging. I bought too much $5-10 dresses last year from the Retro Star vintage sale!!
But the good news is, I'm employed part-time now, so that takes Goal 2 off the list. I'm not going to talk about it now just yet, because I'm worried I might jinx myself. It's still on a probationary period! Everyone's telling me that it'll be fine, because I'm a perfect fit with the company...which got me seriously thinking.
My interview was the most extraordinary one I've had so far. I went in, and within 15 minutes the boss said he thinks I'll be good for the role! And the job hunt thus ended just like that. I guess I'm still getting used to the whole idea of belonging somewhere right in society, which is the feeling that a secure job gives you.
The past two weeks has been a productive period for me, for uni, radio, Robogals and work. I'm just starting to feel overwhelmed by having too much on my plate at the moment. So I'll be taking some time this week to re-evaluate what's more relevant to what I want to do. My problem is that I'm easily excited to perform, and am committed to all commitments that I take on. It doesn't mean that I'm not picky, it's just that I overestimate the time I have to juggle everything at once! And they're all things I'm passionate about, involving communications! I've been with radio for 2 years now, and Robogals nearly one year.
My friends tell me that I have to move on to other things in life, but I'm still learning how to let go.
In the meantime feel free to visit my tumblr! It has more updates and I hope it'll keep you entertained till I find a better pace in life.
I think early twenties is the most exciting stage of anyone's life. There's so much endless possibilities!
