About Me

October 2008

I’m probably the last person that should have a blog.  Oh and massive inferiority complex?  Check.

Who I am in 5 seconds: 2008 grad, accounting major, wants to get a chartered accountant designation.  Whether I can is another question altogether.

Update – March 2009

At this point my blog title second rate “CA” is so far from realization that I feel it’s better to just change it to second rate, lest somebody accuse me of false advertising.

The original naive, bright eyed grad in October is now completely gone.  So much of my thinking  and views have changed that some core aspects of my personality have changed as well.

Still unemployed, still looking.

Update – August 2009

Employed but am I still looking?  I always knew that when I find a job, I would slack off from the job search.  The resume writing, submission, interviews is just stress that I do not need.  And after month after month of it I am in no hurry to get back into the thick of things.

The plan now is to focus on my current job, do the best I can, acquire skills, suggest improvements, build up my resume.  Then when I return to the battlefield that is the job market in around a year’s time, I’ll at least blow the new 2010 grads out of the water.

  1. Just discovered your blog through Krupo!

    Anyway, keep it up…sooner or later, you’ll be writing a “wohooooo, I got a job offer” post, and then two weeks on the job, the”Gawd, just kill me” post will follow…hehe.

    I’m on my 6th month in my firm, and I still think I’m not CA material, but I’ll keep fighting until they accept me in their exclusive little club. Good luck! (Jia you!) and keep us posted…


  2. Hope the interviews are going well!
