LOA at School

I’ve realized taking Leave of absent from school had made me restart my engine again. Either way the most important question that everybody should raise their eyebrows is.. What did I do with my precious time?

  • Travel Thailand and Malaysia
  • Save Money for tuition fees
  • Able to see Joni for a few months
  • Learn Photoshop
  • Scan my Anatomy Books
  • Finally build my own portal
  • Make our scrapbook
  • Read some part of my Fundamentals of Nursing

There still a bit difference between a person who took a year off and spent it bumming around at home versus someone who decided to do part-time work, be it at a call center or a fastfood chain. Well I guess ive choose the 1st one. Hahaha. Coz after a series of travelling, I didn’t give much time updating my resume, then I had difficulty in balancing my time for my schedule reading materials.

Grades are not necessarly an indication of intelligence or talent. What we look for are diligence, discipline and motivation. I think I still have it inside me..or should I say that’s what ive learned from my long school break. Hurray!
