I've handed in my resignation letter last week.
1 month+ till my last day.
As much as i hate to admit....
Despite all those cursing and swearing, i kind of enjoy my work sometimes.
Aseptic techniques, making chemotherapy drug, IV solutions, checking patient's order, and the cheap thrill i get outta catching my pharmacists' mistakes.
This first job will be a huge stepping stone to my future career in pharmaceuticals.
I've had the chance to work in a MNC.
I've trained to be sharp, fast and accurate in checking prescriptions.
I've been trained and validated in aseptic techniques, an opportunity that not every pharmacy technician has.
For all these, I'm truly grateful.
Never thought that i'll get all emo and not bear to leave.
The 'me' one year ago would have been popping champagnes already.
ha.

I've been ask many times, why did i want to go oversea to study?
Lotsa ppl think, "must be coz zhiyong going, that's why she wants to go lor."
Most of the time, i choose not to answer, knowing they've already think that way, what's there for me to say anyway.
Ever since i started working, and heard my first batch of friends going over to UQ and getting a degree in 1 year, i've already thought about it.
I still remember the first time i brought up the subject, got shot down straight away.
"50k? u think so easy to earn ah. Spend money go buy degree, come back only a few hundred dollor more. Waste money only. Last time can go JC don't want go, want go poly. Now pay little, u wan go buy degree. I don't have so much money ah."
After that incident, i never brought up the subject again.
I don't have the financial ability, i'm not that independent to travel and study there alone.
Until now, dar brought up the subject again.
We need a degree.
He knows it, i know it.
So he give me the push i needed to get me going again.
We've got each other's back.
After lotsa explaining, people's backing.
I've got the deal.
Yesh, i'm going partly coz dar's going.
I'm not that independent.
I need the company.
But i know i need a degree too.
I don't want to be stuck with that miserable pay.
I don't want to be just that 'xiao mei' from poly.
I want to have more options, more opportunities.
I want the chance to move out of my comfort zone.
I NEED the degree.

Knowing that i never like violent movie, Dar sorta tricked me into watching the movie "300" with him. But i can't blame him for this one.
It is an intense action-packed movie, top off with great sound and visual effect. Lotsa blood, flying limbs etc though.
The movie brought us back into the ancient Battle of Thermopylae, where King Leonidas, and 300 Spartans take on around 300,000 Persians and slaves to King Xerces. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy.
Defintely a must-watch movie!
I'll give it 4 popcorns outta 5!
