Well, I don't know whether it's appropriate to call it an "unfortunate" incident but it is "unfortunate" in a way that my plan to obtain a PR after studying in Australia gone down the drain. I have reasons for that ; 1) Economy and 2)Family. Getting a job in Australia is virtually impossible without a PR; so which leads to the ultimate key to the whole damn problem. I AM eligible for PR application BUT, due to economy crisis the government decided to reshuffle PR application so they can prioritize those application which are deemed to be important to them, while marginalizing the rest of it. I am not criticising the government but hey, that's what all governments will do - protectionism!. As a result of that, applying PR with such costs of monetary cost and time will not be acceptable to me at this moment. I need a job, a career, something which I can dwell into and make a living out of it. Unfortunately, I have not found any career which I like, and I CAN put myself into.
When I say "I CAN", it means that sometimes in life you do not have the luxury to do things that you want. In a first person perspective we call it "wants". For example; I want to work for the United Nations, but I can't because I do not have the qualifications for it. See? "want" and "can" makes a damn galaxy difference out of it. So yeh, I have many "wants" but due to numerous constrain in this reality I can't afford to live the "wants" yet.. YET. Someday, I will live those "wants".
My life is a mess now because I didn't plan for this but on the lighter side, at least I find myself handling it "okay-ish". Not to say I'm totally comfortable of where I am now but I am not totally unhappy. Yes I am frustrated and unhappy about what route should I take next? So, right now I am just throwing my resume out and see what happens. I am impatient about these things. The whole recruitment process, interview and stuff but yes I understand it's protocol. Guess I have to be more patient about it.
Wish me luck.
