#2 Off to a Good Start

A Great Start

...never felt so alive



It's the first week of school I've been picking up my pace fast at school. Time flies when you get busy, and I got quite busy even for the first week of school here, I've got my work in my Malaysian Students Association, I've got a lot of classes to attend to, I had quite some work assigned to me at my part-time job, and many more to come on #3. 

Speaking of which, I tried to find some extra part-time job this week to get more extra income. I went for an interview for a part-time job at a steamboat place near my home, a place I have always been to because, to be honest, Taiwanese steamboat are so nice and much better than Malaysian steamboat, albeit more expensive. The owner of that steamboat shop has basically employed me but there are still some things that needed sorting out before I can start my work there, so fingers crossed there! 

Besides, I got accepted to work at the international students' office of my school, not much as I've only got allocated 60 hours of working quota for the 18 weeks coming during the semester. So as for now, I have got 3 part-time jobs not including the steamboat place yet, it'd be a heck of a semester just on work but I am inclined to think that I would be able to handle it.

Still, I've been fighting with constant procrastination this week. I've got lots of work to do but I am still piling up my work to a later date, not really urgent work but still, I have got to deal with my constant procrastination towards work and stuff or else it might, as usual, become a hindrance in all I want to achieve.

At school, I have been challenging myself to take up more classes that I have never wanted to take as I was afraid that my results would be pulled down by them. "Hell, I've got nothing to lose," I told myself, and I took it up as it would be a big help in my future investment portfolio. I've decided to take up a module on enterprise evaluation and risk management, like Warren Buffet said, the trick is to know how to evaluate a firm, only then you can make a sound decision on investing in a company. Well, I guess I had to start somewhere.

Overall, I think this week is a good start for me on my 52 weeks challenge and I will keep up on it, I feel kinda alive since I started doing this challenge, maybe it's because I am actually keeping track of what I am doing to achieve my goals? Not too sure about that, but to be honest, I am looking forward to looking back on all my posts on #52 and see how much of a change I have achieved.
