Coming Back to LJ

May 22, 2014 23:44

I was going to keep this introduction post short and done. But I don't think I'm in the right mood to.

Either way. I'm coming back to LJ because I felt I need to blog again. Twitter is nice, everyone's on there, but character limit forces me to not tell things in details for the record because I don't like spamming people with things that they won't like reading about. Also helps people who do want to know what's going on but is not on Skype to hear my rant directly.

To tell current things in a nutshell, I'm stressed over work. Literally, I tug out a chunk of hair off my head every day because of it. Thanks to a career workshop I attended last night, the speaker talked about to be happy at work, three things had to overlap: skills (something you're good at), interest (something you care about), organization (who you're gonna work for). So if you're good at diagnosing sicknesses, and you love to help people, and a hospital with some nice people is a great place, then you'll have a great career.

So I figured out that it's because my interest level is low, and the organization I'm working for is just not one that has my best interest in mind. No wonder I'm so unhappy.

At my old job, I had skills and organization. Interest wasn't there at first but it came eventually because people there were so nice. I actually still think back a lot on what I learned off there and would have loved to go back. In Taiwan, definitely started off with interest and organization, and skills gradually came up. I love it with all my heart. And it all happened within 6 months. Almost 6 months and I'm still going "freak no" to the current work. There is totally something wrong here, right?

I just can't handle it.

Sorry, that's quite a nutshell. But I didn't go into details and kinda don't want to unless you're interested to know... Sora-kun knows anyway (I'm sorry ranting to you like that). But yeah. Mom said it shouldn't matter, just keep moving on because that's what everyone should do. Looking back won't help anything. If someone chooses to stop and look back, let them do so. Before they know it, you're already ahead and making success. This is your life, and you do whatever you want with it regardless of what others may say.

So yeah. I'm gonna try to forget about it. Oh, the interviewer did reply my thank you email, and said that they should get back to me in 2 weeks. A long time, but I guess it'll be worth the wait.

work, emotions, lj
