been thinking about this question since few months ago... especially after I came back from Malaysia in Feb ...... where should I really settle down? Perth, Malaysia, or somewhere else?
*********************************************************************************
Those who are really close to me will know the actual reason or I shall say, part of the reason why I decided to leave this place where I have been staying for the past 9 years and put everything behind. My first owned car, my rented unit which I stayed for 4 years, my considered-above-average-pay full time job, friends who accompany me for the past years...... didn't plan to tell my 2 old folks at home first before I really finalise my decision, but thanks to my dear cuz..now my mummy knew about it, and she seemed really happy for me to finally want to go back to ..at least singapore to work...at least, it's just 1 hour drive from JB, at least she can call me more often...and of cause see me more often..and surprisingly, she said this to me..
mama: hmm...so when u wan to come back..how ar? all your money in your bank, you better check about the charges etc..don't later custom there check. or you better TT some back to malaysia first....
me: oh..ok..should be ok gua (as if I am a millionaire ??:P)
mama: hmm... you come back also good lah, can meet more friends...you seemed like cant know any new people or meet new friends there... =.=
me: oh.........OK (she is hinting me...I cant get any bf in Perth!! =.=)
LOL
***********************************************************************************
BUT now I start to think... can I really cope with the working life in Singapore...? I am so used to my 4 days a week, 12 hours a day working life in Perth, that means I get to have 3 days off in a roll... I am so used to the slow pace in Australia, everything so stress-free....and also, the safety in Perth also. When I go back to JB, i am a cinderella (as just before the clock hit 12, my mobile will start ringing, and my mum will start to nag "aiya, why you still don't want to come back, you know what time now already or not, faster come back ah..." -- and this will continue for every 15 mins until I reached home safely =.= and I name this as "夺命追魂call" >.< but in Perth, I can go out at 12 (yeah just before the clock hits 12. and of cause I won't have people stop in front of me and don't let me go out :P) and I can come back at 3 or 4am without anyone worry..:) *so I think I need to have an agreement with my mum if I do go back for good, she can't stop me from going out... heheheh :P* -- I can understand the reason why she is doing that... but then I am 27yo, and I know how to take care of myself... when I go back of cause I will try to catch up with as many friends as I could...and most of them are working till late.... so actually I missed out alot of chances to meet up with friends :(
**********************************************************************************
Anyway mind is so confusing now... there is no 1 in neither of the places for me to stay (of cause..that excludes my family :)) is the one who really makes me want to stay in either one of the places... I am not saying that my friends are not important..but I always believe that, no 1 is irreplaceable, in both work and also friendship .... your friend not going to go to malaysia with you just because you are going back for good; your boss won't even beg you or raise your wages by 110% or what just because he wants you to stay. this is just how this world is.
my friend said, don't just make decision if you really not sure what you are going to do..some of them even said, because I can't get a bf here that's why I want to go back also... then he said he's going to intro me some guys then it will mess up my plan again =.=
Probably I just need a very long break, go home and accompany my mama and papa, clearly thinking what I really should do... because it takes alot of courage to really move everything I have got here back to malaysia....and also I can do some survey in singapore (as in pharmacy field) - apparently it takes 1 yr and 3 months for you to become a registered pharmacist in Singapore. hmm..compared to how malaysia's one, this is a REALLY short one already. so can't complain much!
So...at the moment, my plan is tell my boss I need a long break in coming July, whether or not he will still keep my position, I don't really mind if he has found someone to replace me...I won't really expect someone will be so nice to me anyway ;) then go back to malaysia... and I have a few holiday plans planned
April - Gold Coast (if this can't make it , probably a June/July trip to Melbourne/Kiwi-land with Claire Tan)
mid of July - sponsoring mama to go china (because I havent been there before, and I want someone to go with me!! hahaha
August - Ang Kor Wa, Koh Samui and Bangkok!
So...any people want to join??:P
