I'm happy to be able to lead a life on my own .. to be able to pursue my career.. to be able to have more me time and more time to hang out with people i've always wanted to.. But sometimes, loneliness tends to creep in when u least expect it to..

Not entirely looking forward to the trip...

i know i shouldn't feel this way but i miss traveling with her...

went bowling earlier with a friend but it seems i no longer enjoy the sport anymore... the spark and the companion is no longer what it felt like...

I know there's no turning back ... sigh...

Lots of things to write about but have no idea where to start from... In life we meet lots of people, some became your friends, others became your closer friends while some just fade away.. I'm not shy to say that i've many friends... but its really amazing to know that when i really needed someone just to have dinner with on a sunday night i can find no one.. FML..

Tension grows with each passing day..
Unlike the past 2 years.. this is the most important..
For it determines my future and my pay..

I could have take things easy and bank on just clearing all my modules..
But this isn't me.. i hope to excel.. Excel in everything i do..that's me .. the perfectionalist me..

I've given myself undue stress.. every single detail.. i want it to be executed with perfection..
It's tough being me.. but i know its just a passing phase.. 5 months is all it takes .. and a good long break awaits..

Being a teacher wasn't something i wanted when i was young...

I could still remember vividly during my pre-school days, my teacher asked me "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

I replied "A lawyer".

That was when i was 5.

Years later, after i graduated with my O level, i thought of the same question again..

"Chemist". And i was very serious about it.. because my love for chemistry grew by the days.

So much so that I took up a Diploma titled "Chemical Pharmaceutical Technology" but it wasn't what i wanted...

Yet I completed my course with an above average results..

Just before i graduated from poly, my lecturer asked me.. "what do you want to do after this?"

I replied very confidently "I can't wait to start work in the industry because i want to show the world what i can do..."

I was bent on making a name for myself in the industry.. not as a chemist nor an engineer.. but rather in the Sales and Marketing line..

From my boyhood dream of becoming a lawyer to Sales was a 360 degree change... until i started taking up tutoring..

Ever since i started tutoring 4 years ago, i realised i'm being drawn into an amazing stage.. where my performance as a tutor will be closely watched... it was tough at first.. parents judged me on my age and my dress code.. but over time i managed to win their hearts and build a strong rapport with their kids..

I've had many students over the past few years.. some did exceptionally well.. while others nearly made it.. I'm proud of myself as a tutor.. and love my job as a role model ..

As i'm nearing the end of my academic calender.. i asked myself this very same question again.. "what do i want to be when i have gotten my degree"

It was a fight between a teacher and a sales manager ..

Days ago, I've sent out an email to MOE inquiring about the programmes they have for Degree holders. I'm really happy that I do not have to go through the whole Diploma nor the BSc programme again as it will take 3 years and 4 years respectively.

They have a Post Graduate Diploma for degree holders, but what worries me is the recognition of my degree.

After all, i'm not a NTU, NUS or SMU undergrad.

Their reply came back today, and their answer to that was simply a "grey answer".

Nothing substantial. This really disappoints me.

I guess i will be applying for the PGDE sometime in Feb next year.. and hopefully the answer will be a YES!

I guess this is perhaps the longest period vacant from blogging.. a good 6 months..

During this 6 months many things happened .. I've finally gotten myself a new bike.. a whooping 600cc touring bike which i had already used it to tour up north (Malacca, Bt Indah, Kulai) it's a really nice feeling to go holidaying with your bike..

My helmet business was a success and i managed to had a healthy profit margin of 25% but because the market is too saturated i've stopped selling them since the last helmet was sold..

Exams was pretty okay i supposed.. my initial fear of failing OTIA was must overcome after sitting for the paper.. so i think i'm saved again this year!

The past two months passed by even faster than i expected.. I started my own tuition agency together with Andy(yes that's right my tutor of many years and now my business partner) and it should be up by the end of July..
I don't know whether it will be successful, but i'm giving myself a full 1 year to make it happen.. so if you're a tutor/student looking for a tutor.. visit my website at www.ibrilliant.com.sg when the web is ready ya!

Not only did i started my own business, i've also been given a chance to take the insurance exam .. no don't start shunning away from me.. i've no intention to become an insurance agent! Just that, it's a very good opportunity for me to broaden my horizon .. passing the exam will give me an added advantage if i want to apply for a job in the banking sector.. that's my intention!

I'm really looking forward to the 2nd half of the year.. Maybe i will start writing regularly again.. maybe I won't.. but still this place will be here .. till the day where i passed on.. :)

I've started blogging since i was in poly year two.. and throughout this period i've had periods like this where i became totally lazy and unwilling to put in any effort in blogging..

I should probably be keeping this blog all locked up once again...

This has been a place where i've had many ups and downs recorded..

Exams are coming fast and furious.. with so many things to study i'm wondering will i be able to do well this time round..

Peace at heart.. gonna rush for my tuition ..
