Bean Counter

I’m pretty much a fun-loving person who believes life is simply too short to mull over the trivial things in life. Actually with my vivacious nature, I reckon I’m in the wrong profession. See, when it was time to further my studies, I thought about becoming a psychologist but then my parents banned the idea as they think that there are no job opportunities for this so-called profession or maybe deep down inside, they were just scared that I’ll become wacko!!! (not like I’ve turned out any saner) So, one profession was deleted from my lists.

Next, I thought I should get into the IT line since I love playing pc games so much. I remembered playing pc games since I was 13 and after the games, I could never sleep as my brain was too active and began to think of ways to break my own high scores!!! But, I rationalize since my sis was in the IT line, I decided not to join cos that’ll mean being compared to her again! As if my whole childhood was any different, sigh!

I couldn’t do sales…no let me re-phrase that…I can do sales but it’s just that I hate doing it. The thought of begging or apple-polishing people to buy my products…uggghhhhh….eyes rolling…can’t stand it. See, I’ve done it fleetingly when I was a volunteer in a school thingy and though I managed to sell the stuff in no time at all…it’s just too ‘fake’.( no offence to all the salespeople, ya) So, that narrowed down my choices for a profession. Well, like my tutor used to say, the accounts people are needed in all companies and they are almost always the last to be fired! So, I guess job-security do count after all…at least in my parents eyes…though I must confessed that I actually change my major 3 times while I was in uni!! :D
