Finally. I've finally made up my mind on the kind of path I wanna take on next- NTU Business. Well..ever since the open houses, I've more or less decided on that, only that it's not finalised then cos' I had yet to register online. Now, I've signed up for it, printed out the relevant documents and paid for the registration fee. So everything has come to a finale. And of course to play safe, I registered for NUS Business Administration too. Heard from quite a number of my friends that they gotta go for the latter.. Great. Meaning tt I'll be faced with less competition for entry into NTU Buz. *haha* Really pray hard that I cld get into the course of my choice..-_-
As what Weiee has suggested, probably I should try to reason out why I pick NTU Buz school. Hmmmz..here it goes:
1. I follows my heart. Since my heart is directing me to NTU Buz School, why not?
2. Unlike NUS Buz, NTU's offers specialisation. Rather than to be equipped with skills bits and pieces here and there, I tot it wld be beta if I conc on a particular field of specialisation and excel in it (on top of the general knowledge of Buz I gotta learn in my first year).
3. A wide range of career prospects. Buz graduates cld easily blend into HR, Banking, IT, Sales...etc. Tt explains why I deter from choosing Fac of Science.
4. NTU Buz has 3 yrs direct honours. A shortened route to greater achievements. Tt factor alone is enough to attract myself to the course.
5. There's a compulsory attachment in NTU Buz, which I'm quite looking forward to. Hands-on is beta than plain memorizing of theories after theories cos' practice makes perfect! Dun you agree? ^-^
Wow! I didnt expect myself to actually have five reasons listed out here without much difficulty. Hmmz..it shows that I dun regret my choice at all ya? If I've no passion for Buz, I wldnt have been able to figure out the above at my fingertips already. A meaningful exercise for me wor. Thanks Weiee! =D
By the way, it seems that I havent been keeping you guys update with my work at HSBC. Not to worry, I'm doing very well at the backroom. =D No matter how stress it may become, it's never as pressurizing and dreading as the reception.
I was having lunch this afternoon with a new FIO, Cybelle. When she was complaining to me about how dreadful and how difficult it's to handle tasks at the reception, I cld fully understand her feelings due to the fact that I went thru it myself too. Seeing her running in and out of the backroom,sourcing for experienced staff to ans her queries, it's as if I'm looking myself in the mirror during my first one and a quarter months' here, when I was doing exactly the same thing like what she's doing now. Maybe tt's why both of us hit off well the moment we met though we barely know each other for a few weeks. Am glad that I'm out of those te-ne-ne days and I'm truly enjoying my work now. Nothing monotonous at all; quite hectic actually cos' there are lots of cut-off time to be met. Moreover, I've to answer irritating phonecalls when my colleages are not at their desks. *hee* (Ehh..Not irritating la.. But how nice if the office cld be peaceful with no phonecalls daily. *haha* I'm off-track.) =D
Ohh..And I've made a BIG discovery. *hehe* Abit of exagerration here but anyway, I happened to find out that the good,macho looking; NUS pschology cum philosophy fresh graduate is a victim of cigarette! *eEeks* Dislike pple who smoke. Do you know how pollutive it's when smokers enter the enclosed; air-conditioned backroom immediately after they took a puff? In addition, little do I ever thought that I actually have a good number of smokers in my bank whose looks tell nuts of their true self. Goodness gracious. I really dun understand why pple wan to smoke. Is that the only way for them to de-stress? Apparently not! They're taking the easy way out as a matter-of fact. How disgusting. *blank-blank!* Smoking does nothing but ruins the smokers' health and image. Can smokers pls pls pls wake up?!?! Quit smoking now and stop giving excuses that it's hard to quit due to the addiction. The issue here is whether you've the determination or not. When there's a will, there's a way.
Yearn for the days of innocence
