i've been working here for close to 2 years. this is my first "permanent" position after graduation. (i am reminded of this one interview where the interviewer actually asked me if this was my first "real" job. i felt like asking her, "so i was only pretending to work in my previous position?") i feel stagnated here, binded by the comfortable salary and position.
it's definitely time to think about moving on. unfortunately, because my present work experience, my degree and my ideal plans for the future do not match up, i need to do some serious thinking about what i want to do next.
i would like to do some future studies in an aspect that i'm interested in, that would open further roads for me, that would be worth the money and time i'm going to sink into it. i've gone through the websites of the various local universities, some overseas ones, some distance-learning ones.
those i'm interested in, i either don't qualify for or they cost too much. those i can afford and qualify for, i'm not too sure about the usefulness. sometimes it really seems like the only way to get your foot into a door is through the back door (ie with the help of someone already inside).
sometimes i wonder if it would be good for me to go back and redo my 'a' levels, just so to get a better chance at the future. to start afresh, with a better grade for my 'a's => a chance to do a better degree => a chance to get a better job.
it's a waste of time, but after being stuck for so long, it's beginning to look good. i don't want to be stagnated because i made a mistake when i was 19 to study a course i had no interest in. there must be a better way out somewhere.
