Let me blow off the web dust on my blog!
Okay done.
Hi everyone! I'm not sure if anyone still read this blog, but heck! i shall still post this entry.
First of all, its been a fruitful past months that i went 'missing'. I was rather busy working with Inland Revenue of Singapore (IRAS) as a tax officer, Enforcement Division. What i did basically was picking up calls from taxpayers who has overdue taxes or filing. I would say it was rather nerve-wrecking at the start and as someone who doesn't spend much time talking on the phone, i felt a little restless now and then with the earpiece covered my ears. Worked there for about 3 months before I decided to leave the job to prepare myself to go back school!
YES... SCHOOL.
After 2 years in army, i would say it is a little weird yet something to look forward to. I suspect my brain is filled with dust and rust right now, and in need of serious clean-up. Oh.. regarding school, after 3 years of trying out for the local uni of NTU NUS and SMU, sadly for me, i did not make the cut to study in any of them. It was a real heart-breaker. REALLY. I did not cry over it though, but enough to make me to frame up the rejection letter and use that as a motivational piece. I wondered and pondered for few days after receiving the letter, where did i go wrong in choosing the courses and the appeals, but eventually i had to swallow the sour truth. The fact that i did not do well for my A Levels. Even with BCDC kind of grades did not make the cut, i have to admit, Singapore educational standards has risen up so quickly when actually with this same grades few years back, it can at least get me into a decent course.
Anyway, i knew i cannot just stop here. An alternative education route is just what i need. And so.. after weeks of serious consideration, listing out the best other possibilities and opportunities for my life, i finally made my decision. I chose to study in SIM Global Education - University of London taking up BSc (Hons) Accounting & Finance. So here i am right now, waiting for school to start on 23rd Aug.
I would say it was not that hard in choosing the degree programme that i want. I knew i'm interested in, other than sports, it will be business and finance. I wanted a certain specialization either on banking, economics or accounting. And accounting was the one of the brighter prospects from the research i've made. So yes that's about it. I've made my decision.
Okay im really tired right now. I shall hit the bed right away.
I will continue soon okay. hopefully REAL soon. :)
P.S: Anyone in need of tuition? i hope i can start some tuition classes soon!
