today felt good, well just pretty good, coz today im evolving! quite amazing how wondering just a few reflections can suddenly make me realise and make a certain viewpoint in me just click.
its 4:30 in the morning now and I feel both amazed and shocked at the same time.
-firstly whats been in my head are jobs jobs jobs! i gotta apply to as much as I can is such a short about of time. but so far I've only relied on GradConnection… and thats pretty much it. that site only features 15-20 major-companies which offer graduate positions. only today I realised, what a narrow scope i'm in. that a pretty retarded thing to do! so first i tried going to seek.com coz thats wut a friend of mine from Cosdu said when he tried searching for jobs. i went there used their search method and boom, i found around 15-20 extra grad positions in a not-so-large company, so i thought pretty good. So this time i went to google and search for electronics graduate positions melbourne… and in front of my eyes… i can find it all.
my friend also told me that it shouldn't be too difficult, just modify the CL and send the resume, done, thats one application. so far i've only done 2 or 3. I think thats totally sad, so now im aiming for at least 100 by end of my job hunting period. and I'm gonna put every ounce of energy i have into doing this. so… sorry choir! or cods events/activities, i may need to sacrifice this so that Ill be able to nail my job apps to the ground, coz I've just realised i've been crawling this is so called job race, and its time for me to grow up and freaking sprint my **s off. I'm gonna sprint so bad i cant take another step. so yea that priority number 1! JOBS…
since i'm in the topic of prioritising, that reminds me, i'm gonna have to find an agent/lawyer to sort out my residency status after i graduate andd… get IELS sorted out. that means I need to sprint my cold **s off on that too. meaning a gazilion hours of studying to get above 8. andd… to top of that i need to work on my social connections, by this i mean attending entrepreneur conventions, engineer's australia events, or just plain friends who can help me out in this struggle to be able to work and live in Austrlia, and live my dreams. and on top of that again studies, this includes the standard, learning and understanding which is straight forward, doing super boring work like doing lab reports, proving how well i understand my material, and research on 4th year project which is… a super awesome project! on augmented reality!
this gives me like a visual model. if I were to make a percentage of how much of those categories i've done today like in a donut chart, it would have been 0% school stuff, 20% job search, 30% socialising and 1000000% slacking off, that means i just day dreamed, slept and slept…. i give todays rating like a 1 out of 5. ideally it should be 33% each for socialising, finding jobs, and uni stuff. but but im not pissed at myself coz I've learnt something really important which is doing this blog right here :) I will definitely continue on doing this. and yes, i feel kinda weird writing this for the very first time. but not to worry, sooner i will be so fluent in my writing and speaking skills :D
this took about 30 mins to write… but im going to do more.
