A New Beginning

A milestone has passed, a new chapter has begun...

June 14, 2007

Finally, after five years of studying, my university life is coming to an end. Not everyone is still in Canada this year, so seemed like our group shrank a bit. When a friend of mine asked who came to our ceremony, I said no one, except us the graduates. Oh well, that's life, people come and go, you can never expect any individual to stay in your life forever.

I'm glad my family came, I'm glad I graduated with Jenn, Eric, Harris and Ricky. That's good enough for me already.

Is it time to think about what I should be doing next in my life? Most people's plan are to find a job after grad and they make use of this time to prepare themselves for the "real world" out there. However, I'm passed that stage already...I've been working ever since high school...part time jobs here and there, full time in summers.

I feel like I'm missing out in the "job searching" stage that most people are experiencing now, I'm not trying to say I'm better off or anything. I just I don't know what my next step is when everyone have their goals so clear in front of them.

I'm not sure if its one of the post-grad syndromes or not, but I haven't been able to sleep much two days in a row. There are things I worry about, but nothing to the point where I think of them when I go to bed. So I don't know what's the reason behind these sleepless nights.

For the moment, I'm lost. Its like a part of my life is gone, the part I was most comfortable with. My career life has started before I know it. There are things at work I need to improve on, but is that it?! Actually, I don't know where my career is taking me. I have chosen a path that makes less money but will keep me happy. However, I can't say I'm very happy at my job right now. I know I'm very lucky to find a job that I'm interested in, but everything has two sides. I think I have a great boss, but can't say the same to my higher level bosses. I guess I'm just not entirely happy with the management direction they are taking.

Anyways, those are things I shouldn't be worrying abt right now, after all I belong to a subtree of a subtree...lol I should concentrate on improving my own knowledge and skills for the time being...I guess.
