Starting work

It feels surreal that I'm starting work on Thursday!! It seems like from ages ago, I have been saying that I can't wait to grow up and start work and live a real adult life. But now that it's just three days away....

My student life is really and truly OVER! (Can't believe it :o) New phase of my life begins....where I have to start thinking about what percentage of income to save, whether to invest, and other grown up things. Hehe I still feel like a kid, really.

Finally my Internet is at a good speed (thanks to my dear bf)

Phuket was fun, we lived like kings in a luxurious house :) Breakfast with a splendid ocean view, dinners enjoying sunset, and good company.

I always thought that I had my whole life planned out.... Was going to be a surgical resident this year, then a consultant after five years of training. Was going to get married by 26 years old, and living in a lovely apartment designed by myself and the interior designer. Was going to have my first child by 30 years old. Was going to get my license within 8 months of working, and own a car by the time I'm a MO.

BUT........

I'm a ways away from the game plan. Oh well, God will make a way for me. Doesn't matter that I can't decide what to do career-wise just yet, doesn't matter that my love life had a terribly rocky patch, or the myriad of mixed feelings, or that I have to go for surgery to get rid of Sally.

Take all that daily toil, plants in our heart’s poor soil, 
Take all we start and spoil, each hopeful dream.
The chances we have missed, the graces we resist, 
Lord, in thy Eucharist, take and redeem.
