The Cocoa Plantation

So it was in the early december.. and on the contrary, i think it is the best time to get moving. Perhaps this, perhaps that, i'm quite tired of being forced into doing things (thankfully the villagers are very patient with me).. whether i want or not. So today, i've set a date to start my OJT (on job training) on the cocoa plantation, with official taking over after the CNY. I guess i couldn't be more ready.

The whole year and a half was so fruitful (i've exhausted so many of my hobbies).. and really, i wonder where all the vineyards and papaya plantations came about. Perhaps on lower grounds, hence things are not the same. I've given quite some thought on how things will be.. yet unfortunately, the bigger picture is not that i can foresee. Of coz it would be nice to be able to use my now cmi banking and finance knowledge in the relevant field.. but really.. they take just about any other discipline.. so 多我一个不多,少我一个不少.. although i truly believe that they could have made a greater distinction rather than just that few finance papers. If so, in the 1st place i just take the papers can liao.. why waste a good 3 years?

At least i know accounting is so much different.. even with a rojak qualification, i still need to undergo a course of a few years in order to get to being a chartered accountant. Those with relevant qualification need to work for a few years to get the 'entry permit' to getting ICPAS. Years leh.. not months. So it is no wonder to me why mis-selling of products is prevalent.

Anyway, some are just a distant dream.. not that i'm really unwilling to let go of anything.. it's just that i want to experience almost everything. That explains why i'm so clueless. But it's all alright now.. i think i've got quite a bit to learn at the plantation.. and maybe, it shall be for quite a while.
