End of postgrad journey

I completed my last exam today & yes! My journey has ended. 2 yrs (almost) of struggling, burning weekends, fighting fatigue and most importantly, a total seclusion from social life is finally over.

Thinking back, i recalled that i use to like to count down to exams becoz i know whenever one's over, i am inching closer to graduation. Looking back, i think i'll miss the night classes, the NTU campus and the whines & bitching that every part-time student share.

While i am glad that KL is also working hard to pursue his postgrad, the separation indeed helps us to concentrate on our work & avoid distractions. Of course, i have to admit that I shrunk my social circle & hardly kept in contact with friends that were once considered chums. I don't know what happened in their lives, can't laugh at their jokes & basically, feel "left out" even when we gather. They also no longer drop emails to say hi. Maybe i also have a part to play in all these, for the fact that i really have no time on my hands to attend social gatherings & also lack of energy to initiate them. I don't know if these are what people call "sacrifices" but well, i suppose apart from the paper qualification i gained, i have never spent so much time at home on wkends and well, my parents & i also grew much closer as a result.

Will i ever study again? Honestly, i do harbour hopes of 1 day pursuing an Exec-MBA. I don't know if that'll ever happen. Maybe 5-8yrs down the road, when i pluck up the interest to pursue education once again, i'll. Oh but for a woman, many of say that kids, family will come my way. I don't know what the future brings but all i know is that if u don't set a goal, nothing will ever happen.
