its been about a little over 2 years since i've posted anything on this blog. been about a year since i've even given it a slight peek.
i don't know for sure. but i guess its safe to say that at this point, i've tons of words and ideas in mind in which i need an outlet to abuse and leave it pouring, lest i implode inward.
updates from the past 2 years?
okay okay, here goes...
1. flew to the US as planned and transferred into Spring Arbor University (SAU), a Christian-dominated bubble that is the majority of the quaint little 6 mile-long town of Spring Arbor, Michigan to finish up my Bachelor's in Finance.
2. made my way up within the student body and got myself into the Student Government Association with the position of the university's International Student Representative (ISR).
3. worked my ass off as the ISR cause well, the university's still in its infancy years with housing international students and does not have a directorial position within the university for international students. so yeah, i was a student, from Malaysia, playing half the roles a non-existent director should be doing.
4. mostly scored A's in the courses i've taken within the 2 and a half years in SAU. here's proof:
5. made more friends than i can count, but decided towards the end of my time in SAU to only acquaint myself with most of them and only keep a select few a true friends.
6. officially graduated with a Bachelor's in Finance as of December 2011 (yay me!).
7. graduated with an CGPA of 3.76/4.00 (not being cocky, updating, is all). mom and dad, i hope your eldest and most mischievous of sons made you proud :) yes, i gave them a mega-hard time when i was a kid heh.
8. moved myself to the City of Chicago for better job prospects.
9. moved in with a Mexican family as a stepping stone. and yes, delicious Mexican home-made food almost everyday.
10. still jobless and bumming cause i dont have the proper documentations just yet in order to enable myself full job interviews. waiting for them in the mail.
12. going to be working here in Chicago for at least a year before heading back to school for Grad Studies.
13. this means i won't be headed home to Malaysia for at least a year and half. at most, 2 years.
14. called mom and told her about the news. she didn't sound all that happy cause well, i'm her momma's boy and yes, we do think about and miss each other.
15. i just cleaned up whatever it is Oreo (house dog here) puked out. it was thick, pale-yellow colored, frothy saliva. Eww. why? cause i was the one who saw it and he puked under the table i'm sitting at right now. oh joy.
so that's pretty much a brief summary of me. nothing in detail, really. but i guess that'll change as soon as i start posting more about life here in the US.
if you're reading this, it means you found/checked it out again by chance. cause i kinda decided to not let anyone know about the possible short-term revival of this blog. unsure about how long i'll keep it up but hey, enjoy :)
and i leave you with an updated photo of my miserable self taken with the blasphemy that is my webcam :D
