Business or I.T?

Decisions. One of the many areas in life which i'm really bad at. Within this week, i have to come up with a proposal to my boss on how to minimize the number of staffs my company. In other words, who to sack and who not to. And i'm on the verge of sacking myself really. It's hard enough to sack a person if they commit a mistake, what more now to sack people just because the company's running on a budget. *sigh*

I do not know where life is gonna take me seriously. I envy some of my friends who have their lives planned ahead of them...where they're gonna study, what they plan to achieve within certain years, what they're gonna do after they've graduate and so on. Heck, some even have plans on where they wanna be bury when they die.

The other day i went and changed my car tyres at some workshop near my area which was recommended by my mom just because the owner used to know my dad. My mom just so happen to talk about studies and all of a sudden, the owner decides to lecture me on how i should not waste my time and continue my studies while i still have the time to. I have to admit, being at this age where most of my friends are still studying while i on the other hand, have a well paid job in a quarry and manage to start off a little business with my friend just makes me feel like i'm pretty much stable. But that's only for now. There are some people who agree with me saying i need not stress so much cause i'm okay but then, me being me, i tend to worry. And when i do that, all the 'what ifs' starts to pop into my mind.

But putting all those aside for now, i have yet to make another major decision in my life. Whether or not i should continue my studies. While most of the pros lies within the answer that i should, now the other decision i have to make is what course i should take up. Being at this stage, i know there's not much choices for me to select from especially when i'm going to be sticking with the whole working and studying life. I'm pretty much at a indecisive state. So far, i have LCB in mind but i have yet to survey more around other places in Brunei with whatever courses they have to offer. Initially i did think of picking up something I.T-ish even though it could be out of my comfort zone. But then, it's something new for me, something different for me to try but after Clyde gave his reasons, it kinda scared me a bit.


Hmmm....Suggestions?

APL*ITUNES 866-712-7753 on your bank statement? YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED.

[Update 17Jan2018] - Wow. To think that 8 years later, this scam is still going on as I'm still getting the odd notifications every now and then with comments on this post. TLDR: If you guys stumble upon this random site because of the APL*ITUNES 866-71-2-7753 charge on your credit/debit card, call your bank immediately and report it as a fraud.  If you have an iTunes account and have any bank cards associated with it, you might wanna beware. I normally check my bank accounts every now and then just to be sure that there's nothing fishy going on in there and of course at the same time, just like many of you *secretly* hoping that someone might accidentally transfer $1 million to my account as well. I've had a few cases of credit card frauds happening and so far, banks have been very cooperative with disputing transactions and issuing me a new card (especially my local bank, SCB Brunei. Well done!). So today, i checked one of my overseas bank account and found out tha...

Foreigner marrying a local Bruneian. A step by step guide.

Time to put this blog to good use again. Seeing that there's hardly any resources online for what one should do when they have decided to marry a local Bruneian, here's what I can tell you in a quick summary.  Brace yourself.  Especially when dealing with the immigration department officials and the paperwork requirement. Despite being married for two years now, whenever I have to make a trip to the immigration to renew Calla's visa, my mood instantly turns sour and I just rage mentally. The repetitive paperwork submissions and the waiting time is absolutely ridiculous and if you're unlucky, you'll be greeted with a " Nombor sudah habis " (Out of queuing numbers) just as you arrive at the immigration which pretty much means, screw you - try your luck again tomorrow! And I shit you not, in order to secure a queue number in the morning, one have to start queuing in line by 6 am at the very least while those working at the immigration department is prob...

"You have a lucky face" / "You are lucky" scam.

Image
Re-posting this from my status update on Facebook which I shared the other day on a rather unique encounter.  --  On my way to my car after work today (while doing my Pokestop runs) an Indian fella stopped me on my track and said "You're very lucky. You have 3 lines on your forehead I can see that is luck".   That obviously stopped me for a bit as he approached me and said "You wanna know how I know? I can tell people's fortune. You wanna know your fortune?" Curious me nodded yes while my brain let out a big sigh and told me "That's it, you're gonna fall for this somehow." This "fortune t eller" proceeds to make small talks about how I'm happy but I'm only 40% happy while scribbling on his notepad discreetly. He then crumpled up the paper and made me hold it in my first and said "What I wrote in there, you don't know right?" (cues my no shit, Sherlock! moment) Then he started asking me to pick a n...
