Work and Travel USA

I've never thought of being able to go all the way to the other half of the hemisphere. It seems to be super surreal to me. Okay lemme begin my post to tell you how i came into making such a big decision. 

The famous 'Bean' in Chicago
I struggled a little to decide whether or not to join the progamme, mainly because of the amount of money that i had to invest. This programme is only eligible for those university students or a fresh graduate from university, up until 6 months after your official graduation date if I am not mistaken. A 3 months working programme plus up to one month max travelling period. 

There are actually two programmes offered, the summer and the winter. I opted for the latter and rejected my friends' invitation to join the summer programe cuz' i needed time to earn some pennies to pay for the programme. 

I applied through Speedwing (One of the approved agencies) and the amount that i had to pay was approximately 1100 dollars, inclusive of the application fee and also visa. The list of jobs offered can be seen from the webpage itself. After you have paid the deposit, $100, you gotta wait patiently for the interview from your employer. It's an easy, get-to-know-you interview that the only thing you have to do is to be able to converse in English. After you get your offer, you needa wait for another interview for your Visa. It's fairly easy, probably around 5 minutes or less for that interview session. 

Do not worry about what to prepare. You will get a detailed update from your agent to tell you what you should do. And after that Visa interview, you should start planning for your flight. I got my Visa few days after my interview, pretty efficient and really out of my expectation to be that fast. And yes, other than the agent fee, you needa prepare a few thousand MYR for the air ticket and a few hundred dollars to be brought over to the States for the first few weeks there. 

Winter time!
It's once a lifetime experience and i never regret making such decision. I got to meet a lot of people from all over the world, the UK, the US, South America, China and so on. A lot of bitter sweet experiences that i will never forget. And it's one of my bucket lists. It's worth the pennies spent. More updates on the working environment and trips. Stay tuned for more.

Graduation fever!

Hello I am alive, barely. It's already June 2015. Gosh, how time flies! 

Graduation is soooooooooo freaking close that I am quite lost, to be honest, I have no idea how my future is going to be like. Just keep moving. The best part of my life is that I have somehow made a right decision to be here. Hey come on I am not as bad, at least I am a graduate from University of Malaya, or sort of going to be. 

Had a sweet photography session with my fellow batch mates. Undeniably, they are the best. Batch 2011/2012. Glad that you all are here all that way to get me through my University life. I am really reluctant to leave, but it is about time also to start a new life ahead. Gonna miss you all for sure.


I am quite an emotional person, and saying goodbye is considered to be one of the hardest things for me I would say. 'When I'm gone, when I'm gone. You're gonna miss me when I'm goneeee' Okay this is so Pitch Perfect and I can't stop myself from getting all teary when watching Pitch Perfect 2. Especially the last past where all of them were coming together to sing for the national championship.


Glad that i have made it through the very last semester. And I guess with the final it marks the end of my very chapter as a student. Going to embark on a very different journey soon and it scares the hell outta me. I thought I am ready for it but then it is not as simple as that.

Anyway there is another thing that bothers me so much. I hope then by later I would have it solved. A short term plan for me after graduate. To all the people here, definitely you all are the best. No matter how future goes, i will still remember every bit of you all. Memories don't fade away simply.

Stay tuned for another update. I hope there is one in a short period of time. haha!

I'm back

Gosh it's been five months away since my last update, Guess i was really busy with my holidays and internship. Have been spending nearly a month in Taiwan and it was great! I was planning to have a few posts on what have i been doing in Taiwan but guess i am too lazy to even begin. Those great memories should really be properly recorded down and i guess i will just have it written down somewhere.
My fav picture of all
Asia University
It's hard to keep track of time and what i have done so far. It's the nineteenth day of October and i was planning to go home this weekend but then was too lazy. Weather is kind of humid and smoky here, the haze is coming back again with no reasons and i am blabbering on and on the irrelevant matters. I am kind of not alright. The thing is super complicated and i need time to digest. This time i am really wrong. Now i learn to keep things to myself, to not express it out loud. I made myself believe in the quote, "The Sun will still shine after a rainy day." But how long will the rainy day be. I dunno.
Work
It's not an easy job after all, realizing that my life would be pretty much the same in the future is somehow unbelievable. Wake up, work, eat and sleep. I wonder how people survive this. Anyway i am working with a bunch of funny seniors, they are dang good and patient that they are so willing to guide and teach me. I have to admit that somehow i am really a nerd. Am gonna switch to another new engagement next week, wish me luck kay.
ya right. I am childish
I am terribly drunk, even tho it's only beer that i drank. I guess beer is really not my thing, it's kinda terrible the overall hangover process, my body'll always get itchy after a few drinks. I don't usually drink, but when i drink i get drunk easily. Buddy said i need to learn to drink more, so that i can protect myself. Well, i am an adult already buddy. Don't worry about me even tho i look like a kid most of the time. Haha!

I guess i am better off being a kid. I am too cute to be the adult. Sigh. Life is so complicated now. Here goes my update. Fine. I am gonna update more frequent in the future.

Wake me up!

'So wake me up when it's all over, when i'm wiser and i'm older, all this time i was finding myself, and i didn't know i was lost.' - Wake me up, Avicii. 

It's three months after only i realized that i was lost, the direction that i was heading to was somehow so vague. Well, i didn't blog for the entire three months, not that i was busy but then i was a bit off lately. Nah not an excuse i know. Procrastinating has been part of me, sheessh away all the last minute work please i gotta start working hard soon!

Awesome MASC Team!
Let's have a brief recap of what have i been doing actually for the past three months. I believe that it's gonna be a long update, i might take me weeks to finish up what i am writing now. HAHA!

He is super cute. 
Love this guy so much! Sayang Sayang :)
My new semester started off with MASC 2014. I got to know a few great people during MASC and it's not a bad experience for me. So finally the kiddo has done with his MASC and it's time to play hard before finals. He is super adorable that you just can't stop loving him. Great success to your event. The next in line is my favorite kid here, we don't seem to talk much lately, but thanks ya for always sayang me. You don't know how glad i am to have you around. :)

Anne
Lily
My two lovely girls from KK9 have flown to Korea for a six-month exchange programme. I am quite busy lately bustling with activities, but no matter what happens, we'll always be there for u two. Lily, don't be upset kay. Anything i am here. Best friend here. Stay strong and things will be fine soon. Let's pray for things to be better. :D

Quan Bian Publicity 14
Okay finally the end of the event. I know that sometimes i really don't like the way the people here doing their job, but then i have a team of awesome people helping me out. It is nothing but a memory. Gosh, i'm old. Not bad that i have gained some experiences in designing poster and banner, and my products was printed out! :)

Thanks PUMAC. Love u so much!
Silly OKU girl who is really a 38 friend
Buddies!
A good friend of mine tho we don't meet much.
Thanks to some of my wonderful friends here, for always being there when i need one. I really love you all. Describe how much i love you all is a waste of time cuz it'd be so undescribably long, anyway i'll appreciate everyone of you in my life. I mean it when i say that. 

Well, I shall include some of my birthday celebrations here but then it might bore u out. SO i will update soon afterwards. Just too a lot to update for the 3 months. Assignments are all going to be due this weeks. Oh no i am screwed!

Thanks Chew Li
Received a gift after a tiring day of my event. Somehow i miss the time when my little bro brought me around. It was a sudden plan really. And so off i went. I have been to most of the places in Penang actually, but then people there made the trip unforgettable. It was a year ago, The kids have grown up. Thing has changed. HAHA! Bro, bring me there again when everything is settled k. I miss the year, the trip, the people back then. How i wish i can have fun again with the same people. Time flies.

The Bad Guy

It's never been easy to adapt yourself to the changes around you, especially when the people around u change. Yea am back again to add on the crappy story of my life. If i ever try to describe how my life goes here, it may bore you to death. Life gets bored when you grow.


Some internal fidgets have made me sleepless for a few nights. My eyes seem to be off functioning when i want to sleep, flipping on and off yet sleep never comes. Pray hard that tonight i can sleep well. The thoughts swiveling back and forth, diverting away all my attention from the very important stuff. Geesh my brain you never learn huh?

The exam result is still not available. I don't really wanna see how bad my result is with my current situation. Somemore the registration date is so vague that i don't really know when can i start registering. Jesus system down is seriously infuriating when u wanna access to get more information. Dafuq.


Am back from my hometown. It's getting boring here while what i have to do the whole day is just to lay on bed, sleep it off, walk around my area with my brother, get a cup of nescafe and drink it off like a boss. Grrr. Just wanna get my butt out and breathe. Fresh. Air. I. Need. You. Really. Am. Suffocated.

Someday you look back and all the pain is gonna be invisible. Really that simple that all pain will just be invisible and gone? hmm... Love da song so much. Meaningful. Invisible Hunter Hayes. Thanks for the recommendation. :)



Gonna graduate soon. I don't have any ideas how my future would be. Perplexed. Auditor is not really the job that i am looking for, yet there aren't not many choices out there. I love writing but my English is such a disappointment that i might need extra had work to have my dream fulfilled. Hmm...


Yea. It's so annoying that sometimes i care and worry so much out of nothing. It's really a tiring act. I miss the time where there's nothing to worry about, to think of, to care of. Just wanna be a bad bad guy who does not give a damn to the thing, care and worry nothing. Be selfish. Hmm. I need a quality sleep really. Please.

I do care

The exam was tough man. I don't even remember what i've done but i'm so glad that it's over. Nah, da exam is not what i'm going to blog about today, let the hell be. The exam marks the end of another semester and finally semester 5 has over but in a blur. Hate da feeling to have to bury myself in the stuff that i am not supposed to be in. 

Career Path Marketing crew!
It's been a year and finally we have our small gathering, albeit how tired we were after the exhaustive exam day. Glad that we have some nice food afterwards. Phew ignore the price. Shoba was sharing her glorious moment of how she met the ghosts and everyone shared theirs as well.

My dear Buddies!
Malaysian Intervarsity Leadership Conference (MILC) was finally over. Proud of my juniors for being able to organize such huge event. Buddy Buddy thanks so much for inviting me to come as well as Hui Min ah lui and Jun Lin the Director. Great job especially to the team of programme. She never lets me down. I am so glad that u being a member of mine before.

Buddy Good Job! 
Good Job buddy! Hearing lots of stuff happening in MILC from both my buddy and ah lui. Just can't believe that. I am so entirely disappointed. Buddy told me that she loves me smiling wide with teeth showing. She said the chubby cheeks look great here. Meeting great people here and there. The only thing that I dreaded the most was to be the debater but it's over.

EMO gang plus Le sister
And finally had a meet up with the lovely EMO gang. Somehow I miss real friends so much. Those true and real friends who would not only be looking for u only when they need u.

Le Kid
Somehow I just couldn't believe that people can be so cruel. This is the second day. It's excruciating to have to wait for the reply. I know i was being harsh but i tried every means i could to deliver my apology. Don't u know that it's upsetting to be ignored.

Yea great u're hurt but i am heartbroken. Thank you so much for telling me that i am just a person who messages aren't worth replying. Yea i'm not important. Funny that how i wish that somehow all will be fine again. Wake up please Kai Jie. Time to move on. :'(


Considering to close off my blog or just leave it dusty here. I seem to not really have time to update my bloggie anymore like i did before. Killing most of my time with sleep and stuff. Let's think about it. Not that anybody cares.

Funny that i still care. But u never know that.

Smile Like a Boss!

Finally decided to put all my books away to write, feeling so depressed the night before that i was so struggling to keep myself awake and eventually I've decided to just give up and sleep. How i wish i were that clever to be able to swallow down a chapter an hour. Another few days to year 2014.

There's time back then for me even writing down what I have on my mind seems to be incredibly hard. That's the reason why i haven't been updating my bloggie much lately. Thanks also to the tight schedule for procrastinating myself further to write. Arghhhhh!


Seriously i have to be quick to sum up what i have to say in order to have more time to study. Grrr! The kids are just so cute that i can't stop myself for loving them more. Feeling so comfortable to have them around. 


Hwa xun the boy is super cute and i feel like pinching his face all the time like how i pinch my brother. He's just so good in taking care of people really! That's why i love him so much like my own brother. No reason =D 



Sometimes i wish i can be a kid forever, at least there's nothing to worry about except eat, shit and drink. And at least can smile like a boss! Yea finals finals go away. =)


Not forget to congratulate myself for winning the second-runner up of the Deloitte Tax Competition. The moment during the competition we're so hopeless but our effort was not in vain. Glad that we have made it thru. Thanks to the two brilliant girls, without them, i won't be able to make it even to the finals. 


Never realize that i am so important to you. So touched to receive this belated Christmas gift, the message means so much to me really. How am i going to eat this when it's so meaningful? haha! SO now do learn to cherish me more cuz i am so valuable! I am still mad at you sometimes, don't say those stupid stuff again please.

My friends told me not everyone u care cares about you, that's so true. Sometimes we really have to learn how to let go and move on. Not all your friends are worth your tears. An advanced wish to all of u who are reading this, Happy New Year. Blessed be =D
