Sooner or later, I would face the most "interesting" chapter of my life - decision to choose what kind of job that I would like to work for as there was so much company in Malaysia. Sometime I do feel frustrated when I spend so much time on researching about so many different kind of information and end up didn't remember much about it. This had happened the very same to the book that I had read. Can you imagine that when you have finished read a book but you can't make a summary out of the book that you had read? Somehow I tried to copy write down in my blog so that I could recall it later to strengthen my memory.
One of the book - "All the marketersare liars tell stories" did make me gain a lot of insight out of it. For instance, you don't get to just sit down and make up a story and expect that people will believe it merely because you want them to. Would you belief when I said the sushi at X restaurant tastes better if the chef is Japanese than the sushi in Y restaurant that prepared by local people. Well, you might not agree with my statement but somehow you will have a little perception that the sushi prepared by Japanese definitely more tasty.
In this moment of writing, I still haven settle my own personal problem about talking with people and it do affect a bit of my emotions. There was a picture about said by psychologists would have describe some of my past feelings as shown below. (try to understand people)
During the afternoon, I walked to the Ickenham library to have a better focus to read book. It was quite small and the weather was so cold as it is full of cloudy fog. The book that I read from there is "What Color Is Your Parachute 2010" that is a practical manual for job hunters and career changers.
In deed I agreed that having a passion is the main source to get your work done without feeling frustrated. The employer nowadays is looking for people who have talents, experience, persistence, self managed skills, people skills, responsibility and retention. Anyways, it is true that if you can't get a job, you should have this mantra which is "Those who are interested in hiring me for what I can do and those who are not, with the latter I should thank them for their time, and ask if they know any other employers who might interest in someone with my skills. Then gently take my leave, write and email them a thank you note at that night."
Honestly, I do feel worry about my future job when I doubt whether I want to apply for the same online marketing position or changing to a new field either in a bank or a retail merchandiser. The reason to stick with the online marketing was probably due to my current education as an e-commerce and marketing fresh graduate. In the end, nobody can decide for me other than myself. Anyway, I tried not to think about the worse case scenario although I'm will be in debt when I back to Malaysia. This could be my last moment to enjoy UK weather although I wish to go more place just like the Oxford trip yesterday.
Furthermore, I couldn't comment much about the currency rate of Ringgit Malaysia is getting weaker as it seems to be doesn't improve much. You could just imagine that working as a waiter illegally in UK could earn a clear profit of RM5000+ per month although the risk / drawback was getting blacklisted or deportation. In my opinion, I don't think anyone would risk to do that kind of job in foreign country if our country's currency is strong. Anyway, I shall be grateful to have the opportunity to stay and improve my English with reading, listening, speaking and writing skills.
Before I end my post, I would like to share a contest from iMoney and RHB Bank where you can stand a chance to win an iPhone 5S, 5C and Limited Edition Kakao Plush.
