今天,在东亚运动会组委会工作了一整天,现在已经可以自由出入了。虽然工作很单调也很辛苦,不过毕竟是一份工作。收获最大的是,第一次发现自己屁股坐下来4个小时不动并不难。
前些天,为了一些事情难过,向几个老师发了邮件。陆陆续续的收到了回信,今天是最后也是最感动的一封,其实有时候,花些时间和精力关心身边的人,也许只是短短几句话,但只要很用心,对方却会感到无比的温暖,I want to be an accountant!
Dear Jay,
Very sorry for the late reply. I am sick during the whole mid-term
festival, fever, cold and cough. What an amazing holiday!
I guess you are facing 2 problems now.
1) whether to choose accounting to be your life career?
Jay, there are only few people who work one job for his/her whole life.
Imagine even studying a doctoral degree, there are still so many ways to
apply your practice. This is particularly true in today's world. Getting a
degree is just the basic requirement. Later on you may study a master in
marketing, law or even engineering. For me, I guess at your stage, the most
important is to choose some professions (e.g. engineer, accountants,
lawyers, etc.) and accounting is one of the professionals. Besides, I guess
you have some misunderstanding regarding the profession. My husband who
worked in Big 4 before always claim himself to be unsuitable because he is
careless. Actually later on, he found himself very interested to be an
internal auditor of casinos. Accountants nowadays do not have to be that
serious. But of course, you have to improve if you know carelessness is
your weakness. Carelessness could be very critical if you are a driver!!!
2) Your pressure coming from your girlfriend.
Pressure sometimes help but sometimes kill. Recently I was also very upset
because I got slow progress in my PhD dissertation. But I just realized
that all pressures actually come from myself. Remember if you have done
your best, you are the best of yourself!
Hope you are feeling better now!
Best regards,
Teresa
