That Little Chance

Seriously, I had qualms in going here in Singapore because I really think I am still "raw". If that "event"* didn't happen, I wouldn't be forced to leave my country, considering how "nationalistic" and "idealistic" I seemed. Of course the only way I will be able to leave the company is if I will be able to find a job with a salary big enough to pay my bond. And my bond is really a HUGE amount. Fortunately for me, my friend Richard is already here in Singapore. He helped me get hired in my current company. Also, it helped that I am a Mensan because it paved the way for him and Grace to decide to hire me without undergoing interviews. One of our colleagues here, a senior engineer, is also a Mensan. When he learned that I am a Mensan, he gave Grace the full authority to hire me.
And that's all I need. That one chance. I know I really messed up my college big time so now I need to grab every little opportunities I can to, hopefully, prove my real worth.

*That event as the main trigger for my decision not at all contradicts my reason in my first post. As I said in that post, the reason I gave there is just one of the main motivations I have. And I'll get the chance to write on most of them as I go through my journey.
