cliff hanger tricia

I was near my breaking point at work yesterday. not because I was utterly busy that it tested my limits so, but rather, I was finding work completely meaningless and idling was the worst thing to be paid to do.

Somehow, dearie’s words calmed me down to think rationally. i am setting my sights only at my masters. That’s my goal.

How do you know you’ve met that someone who is right for your life?

No matter what happens in your life, he/she is always beside you cheering you on and traveling the distance with you. he/she doesn’t put you down but reminds you that there’s something to be learnt from every episode. I know I found that someone =)

Honestly I can’t see a future in this job I am presently at. I’m so stuck in between. I don’t have new things to work on because the FC has taken most of my work to do on her own. I’ll never make it to the accountant post because to my superiors, I have nothing to prove myself. I’ve been feeling very down since the FC came and I find that I am going no where at all.

I’ve been thinking of moving on for several months and the only reason I am still here is because of my studies. Some may fancy a job that pays you to idle but to me it’s a sheer waste of time as I find the pressing need to learn and catch up with my peers.

However, because of the whole heap of free time I have, this is probably the only job that’ll allow me to do some studies. On the flip side, a trade off with lesser work prospects and challenging work to simulate my brains.

Colleagues are nice people, except the FC. She’s not nasty, just that she’s not a good manager of people. I appreciate my colleagues, hence I’m not repulsive against this job nor pressed to find another job badly.

Tomorrow my first class starts. I’ve already planned out my time a little and I’ll attempt to work within whatever I’ve set for myself. Studies will keep me busy and converge my focus; away from the unhappiness at work.

Dearie is right, once I finish my masters in another 1.5-2years time, I will move off to the next level. meantime, hang on..hang on..hang on!!

There is always light at the end of the tunnel.

Tricia is a fighter!!!

I guess I am in a worse situation than you.
I am facing unemployment soon. =(
But I will not give in.
I need to believe, I want to believe and I BELIEVE that things will work themselves out. =)
