A Little Update

Just to let people know what I've been doing recently... (well, I don't know if those who asked will read this, but anyway...) And this will be boring for those who knew all about it all this while. Kakaka...

Very, very old news: I'm no longer in college, because I've finished my studies there (which is a Diploma) . The convocation has not been held, and I have not received my results, so I perhaps would hesitate if you asked whether I've graduated. Oh, and this was in... somewhere between March and May.

Very old news: Since then, I've went for a few interviews, with positive results I might add, but I did not accept any of it. Was wondering if I should prioritise work experience (work in an architecture related firm) or earn more money (whatever job which offered more, which is usually not architecture). Was wondering when and where I should further my studies.

Old news: Was inspired to start craft classes with a friend but plan is on hold following decision to further my studies next year. Did a part time job at an architecture firm in Kepong for a month. Good pay, but inconvenient (transport is waaayyy bad).

Not-so-old news: I stay at home most the time nowadays, when I don't go out for the occassional meeting up with friends. When at home, I try to do stuff to keep the house neater and tidier. Hah. Got a job translating articles but I stopped after the first task upon learning of the measly renumeration.

Currently: I'm doing editing work for a publisher who does workbooks for primary school students. I cover English, BM and Science. Any other subject aside from Mandarin would be fine too actually. Good pay. And I really only allocate a few hours to complete one. Very satisfied with job situation. Haha. Am trying to get more freelance jobs as this.

If you noticed, I'm actually putting my priorities on earning more money. Feels good receiving cash when I hand in my work. Down side is, I now have to give duit dapur, pay my own internet bills, and recently give pocket money to my siblings. Sigh...
