Got it got it!

I GOT IT!

Remember how I used to blabber away how job deprived I am? And how I keep search high low for one amidst all the objections and second thoughts?

Well...

I just got myself a job and it's a good paying one. Plus, I only need to work once a week! How cool is that?! Some jobs require you to work at least minimum 3 days a week and this complies to retails job too. Plus the paying rate always lingers between $5-6/ hr with some exceptions. You need to think about the job scope , environment and the location. All in all, I hit jackpot!

I'm not going to reveal what and where I'm working at. It's just somewhere near and I work only on Saturdays so the rest of my time I can study at home and finished up my project.

The bad thing is I can't clock in more timing as and when I like as my schedule is fixed so my salary is really low. Oh well..! That's pretty good for once a week thing.

Until my work is stabilised and I got comfortable with it, I may tell you where I worked at . But for now, my fingers are crossed.

Internship

Doing several research on internships.

The findings kinda dashes some of my hopes.

I don't know if it sounds stupid or not but pay to do internship abroad?

I don't know,  and it's not just a few bucks but a few thousands not to mention air fare is not included. Might as well go straight to the country and apply for the job directly.

I have also looked at some of the working holiday programs some countries offer. Unfortunately, it is only applicable to some nationalities. I have to do a much in depth research to find out if I'm applicable for it. But if all plans fail , at most I would just travel to several countries and apply job there.

Currently, I am very positive I can go to Canada to do my internship, just a matter of if I am chosen or not.

If I really can't do my internships, well... I can always go for an overseas further studies.

Here's are some I had in mind.

Japan & Korea --> 1/2-1 yrs duration there to do my language studies

UK/Canada/Australia  ----> Get my Masters

New Zealand / Canada ---> Internship.

But dreams are dreams.

Right now I have to work hard to save up for the accommodation that I would incur if I were to go there. No money, no say. So I'm trying my best to secure a part time job.

Wish me luck~
