Hello from Melbourne
It has been a while since I have last updated this blog.
The few months after my last post were filled with an overwhelming array of emotions. I have finally graduated from Uni and my family came all the way from Malaysia to share this joyous occasion with me. Later on I was admitted as a legal practitioner in Queensland and although this time my family could not join in the ceremony, I felt very thankful to share this special moment with Fauzi and my other close friends.
The ‘happy’ moments vanished as fast as they came. No matter how hard I tried, I have not been able to get a job as a solicitor in Queensland. I was left feeling depressed and worried about my future ahead as a solicitor in Australia. Luckily I was able to secure 2 waitressing jobs to pay the rent and to foot my living expenses.
Some time ago, Fauzi and I made the decision to try our luck in Melbourne. With our savings from our casual jobs, we bought a plane ticket to Melbourne. We arrived in Melbourne this morning at 12.25am and will be staying here for 2 – 3 weeks. Fauzi’s friend was kind enough to lend out his living room to accommodate our stay here. :-)
Guess what?? I’ve landed an interview with a law firm here on next Wednesday.
Whoever is reading this post, PLEASE pray that Fauzi and I would be able to land a job here. We hope to be able to bring good news back to our friends and family soon.
God Bless.
