Well, I am sorry for my followers who had been waiting for my updates for so long....
I've been back to my sweet home - Malaysia for nearly 4 months....how well I am adapting??
Hmmm, basically i am adapting very well, but not completely settled down yet
I guess as long as I am still jobless, i couldnt consider myself settling down back home
I kinda used to the humid and hot weather, but still not able to wear long sleeves, as well as jeans..
Apart from that, I guess I am getting familiar with Malaysia culture (born with it , come on!), perhaps nt the working culture/environment yet
alright, time to explain what i've been doing since i back
1. meeting frens and relax - went to Penang and Malacca for trips, been to places around Selangor for frens outing activities (sing k, movies etc)
2. house-working - officially become a maid at home, cleaning house no longer become a rejection to me as I am too free to turn it down
3. watching heaps of dramas, movies, video clips, variety shows, youtubes...well, they kill time easily, i had known so many shows these days
4. endless job-hunting - ok, i am still working hard on it, i dint mean to become a jobless person who just spend my parent's money at this age, however i couldnt deny i cant help with it atm, but i actually spending on my own peny which i earned from my previous job back in NZ everytime i went out with frens/trips.
5. Helping dad at his shop - yes, i believe this is the best i could do currently which is really good for my dad. I felt grateful i am able to give a hand in his business though i am not that skillful and strong to do labor work (fyi, my dad sell car batteries, and indeed need a muscle to help). So what i basically doing is answering phones, typing invoice/delivery orders, do cash receipt, deal with customer (partly, as i still at stage understanding types of battery and functions)
6. learning to drive - putting in my greatest effort in it....i am able to drive on road under dad's supervision now! I had improved a lot, and every sunday i am fetching my family out for lunch =)
7. Started developing a new hobby - reading! Yea, I am overcoming what i hated doing before, i bought 2 books from Popular book stores last month, and also renewed my membership card, which means i am truly thinking to enlasting this good hobby. So far i ald finished the first book, and on the track to the last chapter of my second book - the five people u meet in heaven (Mitch Albom). I am in the process borrowing books from others too =)
8. Badminton - i try to do it with my brother every tuesday, following my dad's badminton activities which he joined with his frens at a local court
9. Family time! Of cz not to mention, i am enjoying the every single moment i spent with family, well quarrels and fight was unavoidable sometimes, but we still loving and caring each other, and truly had a great time and continue doing it.
10. Things to do next :
(i) building up my nutrition knowledge: researched other nutrients/ingredients which i dunno and write on a manual
(ii) diet: yes this must be get back on track, i couldnt believe i gained weight instantly!! Malaysia indeed a food heaven which ruined yr diet plan...I am very struggling to lose weight as there are too less non-fatty food around, plus i am no longer by myself, family will get influenced with my diet plan.
p/s: I will update some of the key events in the past after i back home on blog =P
Back to the topic i created on top, yes, i just went to my first ever interview this morning. I am thankful that i got this opportunity at least to be able to have an interview with such big company. Well, no matter what's the end result, i had learnt so much today. Besides, so grateful that dad sent me to the factory and waited me for 2 hrs regardless of his busy work. I am still feeling very sorry for all the troublesomes i caused since i back home. Love u, dad.
My interviewer was generous and kind enough to share the job functions/barriers that challenged me a lot in my shoes.
well, i will just stay open under any circumstances, and not giving up on hunting for other job opportunities. I was indeed crashed down after i back, and emotion had been flowing up and down, felt anxious and inconfident not having any response from jobs applied, felt the world is ending soon....kept thinking the days i was in NZ...being negative and hidden myself from the world...
but thanks to family and frens who kept on supporting me, and pulling me up from the dark hole..I am still able to recover, and will continue keeping my head up. I understand i have to just move forward, and be positive. So vivian, good luck and please dont forget the reason u back home and never give up!
