Stressed

* This flower is drawed by a plane.

Since I get the admission from school, I feel excited but stressed as well. Due to study, I need to go back Taipei earlier. I am so sad that I need to say goodbye to Australia. There are still so many place I want to visit. However, I don't have time and money at this moment. I really don't want to leave Australia!!! I should be happy right now. However, I feel so stressed and indeterminated.


First, I don't know how to tell my manager I am going to quit job due to the study. Cause she think I will do this job for six months. I do want to work in hotel for 6 months if the Italy school doesn't give me admission. The hotel gives me a lot of training, I feel so guilty.

Second, I need to take the bloody lanuage test. I don't know if I can make it in such a short time. I need to work now. After work I feel very exhausted and I don't have good study enviorment to prepare the test.

Third, there are so many things need to be done when I go back to Taiwan. I will arrive Taipei on 21:45 15th January and fly to Italy around 20th Feb. I only will stay in Taiwan for one month. I need to get the student visa ASAP, I have to prepare the health insurance, finance capability statment, and related doucments. Also, I need to prepare the money for study and ask a loan from bank. I don't book the airplane ticket to Italy yet...And I don't know yet where I can stay when I arrive Italy... GOD!I don't know anyone in Italy!!! nothing is certain now.

Finally, AM I ready to greet the totally different life in Italy? Am I going to be a business woman in my later life? Is this really what I want? I will be in debt for a few years due to the study, I need to live frugally for a long time. But this is the price I need to pay for my dream.

Sudeenly, I don't feel I am in the mood of holiday anymore.

  1. Just a silly suggestion that you can probably take into account.
    If you don't worry about your age, you can probably postpone your study to 2008 and enjoy your time in Australia. A full-time job in Australia for 6 months should definitely be good for both your financial balance and English, which seem to be your concerns at this moment. The job should be an once-in-a-lifetime experience as well. This is what I would do if I were you, but I guess everyone has different priorities.

    The point here is, it's not like you can start your life only after the expensive MBA, you are living your life right now. Things are sensible enough for you to do it as long as you know what you are doing.

    Cheer up, mate!! ;-)

  2. To Josh,

    Thanks for your advice. :)
    However, I already accepted the admission and pay the deposit to the school(The school ask me to decide before 1st Dec). Age is definitely my concern because it does matter for a person to get a good job in career and get promotion. The program is just 15 months so I can finish the study and go back to study just before 30. Acceptting this program saves my time.

    Yeah, the hotel job is really once-in-life experience. But tell the truth, except for learning how to launder clothes well(I don't think this is important for me...haha.), I can't learn a lot from hotel. I don't like doing routines every day, I like change. For me, this job is good to strengthen my ability of doing detail well and my patience, the most important thing is money. I also view thing from different way in a company because I do the entry level job. My gain is to know how a good hotel train their employees to deliver the good service and their culture. I like to contact customers as well. Working in the hotel Two months is enough.

    You are right! I am living in my life now and I do know what I am doing. There is no reason for me not happy. But you know... life has a lot of possibility, you would wonder if this is the best way to do it when you make important decidsions. That's why I feel indeterminated. My problem is somtimes I am too greedy to finish many things at the same time, so I feel stressed. Anyway, I will enjoy my remaining time in Sydney and do my best to prepare the lanuage test well.

    Good luck for you to get a job in Taiwan.

    Pretty much admiring at your one-of-the-kind personality, esp while most plp nowadays in this new generation by no means to experience such a farm work, and you seem to take it as normal stuff.
    What would i say? you really blow my mind.
    Go for it with eveything you need to confront,

    Ps, I lived in Tassie, if you need some1 to guide you arould over here, please do not hesitate to contact me, it will be my pleasure.

  5. To Sean,

    I'm so suprised that you find my blog by searching "broccoli". I'm glad to know a new friend. This is why I love internet, it connects people from different places. Can you read Chinese and Are you Chinese? Because most posts in my blog are written in Chinese.

    I really want to go to Tassie, however this time I don't have time to visit Tassie due to the studying in Italy. I will go back to Taiwan on 15th Jan. I'm so disapointed about this, Tassie is a must go place in OZ for me. It's pity that I can't meet you in Tassie. Maybe.. if next time I visit Australia and you still live in Tassie, we can meet. :)
