quit IQPC

100

My one-hundredth post and possibly the most shocking thing I've ever done.

I've quit my job.

Officially, as of August 15, I am jobless! Yup... no other job yet.

I'm often asked how I feel right now. Well, excited and nervous. With sporadic bursts of panic attacks.

But I'm thrilled. No regrets at all. Not even when the MD asked me to consider a promotion to be the general manager for the training department (the crazy offer is a story for another day).

And I'm taking my time to pursue the next step and discover what's good for me... you know, spiritually and overall wellbeing. That kinda stuff. =)

To tell you the truth, I'm still a little overwhelmed by this decision. I'm still hoping what I've done is still the most rational decision. There will still be jitters till I get to settle down in that close-to-dream-job at a major local institution or MNC.

In the meantime, I'm at home playing house-keeper. I'm cooking complicated dinners that require marinating, chopping and dressing up plates. I'm preparing for a major interview with NUS on Monday (that will be my 3rd interview) and I'm reading up books on how to improve my writing.

Most important, I am looking after myself. Getting enough sleep, some exercise and me-thinking time to reflect upon the past and the future.

If you're ever around Ang Mo Kio, do give a shout any time of the day.
