The Wait is Over!

It has been a long time since I started visiting my blog. I was busy with my course work: attending classes, working on assignments and preparing for exams. For the past few months, I was involved in preparing my daughter for her Primary 1 education. She has been enrolled to the nearby school, in fact just opposite our block. It is nice to see her in school uniform and looking forward to school everyday. And of course, I have been through many interviews trying to look for a job. The wait is finally over. I have managed to land myself a job and I will be starting work in Febuary.

Looking back, by the time I started work, I would have been unemployed for 3 months. It is scary during these long period, as anxiety and fear leads to stress. I can really feel the impact of stress during the past months when I was faced with working on assignments, preparing for exams, looking for jobs and family matters. I began to slim down due to poor appetite, having sleepless nights, could not concentrate in studies, getting aggitated easily, etc. That was how bad the situation was.

But now, the exams are almost over, and I am starting work soon, the pressure is beginning to wear off. I wish I will not go through this ever again!

As for my new job, I will be working as Supplier Quality Engineer, and I will be required to travel frequently, especially in the Asia region. And I will also be attending training in France for about 2-3 weeks. This is discussed during the 3rd interview via video conference with the France's division. This sounds like a good deal right? Anyway, the expectations are very high and I hope I am able to make it there. So wish me luck.
