Staying in KK for quite a while?

Try to drive around KK, it's fun.

That sounds appropriate, but don't forget to fill your stomach in KK.

Adui, i can't recommend anything as you are vegetarian

It is hard to recommend heh...

Let you see one place in KK.
Boring ah...next time, drive car around Klang Valley 

You still up? wow...yeah medical science, what did or do you study?

No, I was asking if you are a struggling student as I was too? haha

Why do people keep asking me if I'm a girl or boy? Does it seem like I might be a girl? 
I'm male btw

Why jobless? Biotech grads have a market out there right? I have a friend who graduated in biotech working for a pharmaceutical company now...

Don't worry too much. When the time comes, do your best to find a job. It doesn't have to be the perfect job the first time. Just land something first and make your way to that perfect job. Relax, everyone can do this. This country has low unemployment and we have jobs if you're not choosy...

Studying was easy for me because I loved what I studied and I would've studied it for fun if I could also. Financially it was tough especially if you wanted a normal lifestyle which I did and I set high standards to be able to do this and that and so I needed alot of money which I had to bust my ass to get...

Honestly speaking I have this very not so popular idea.
After I graduate from my first degree, I wanted to study another degree PART TIME, or getting PART TIME professional paper, which is 100% unrelated to my current course. Shared this idea with few, it seems weird to them. Any advice?

I know where you are because I was right there 2 years back. Fortunately for me, I went into business with my brother mid-way through my college years and just continued that afterwards. All my friend's went on vacations and backpacking here and there because they wanted a last hurrah but people like me and maybe you can't afford that and I had bills to pay and a company to run.

I started work 2 days after my last final exam and have been working ever since. I did not go to my own graduation because I had to be in Beijing on business. and I graduated top of my class with a 3.96GPA which was highest in the history of my faculty. My professors were livid with me and they all said I wasted my talent.

On the degree thing, I am working in a field not at all related to my degree and I graduated top of my class with a 3.96GPA which was highest in the history of my faculty. My professors were livid with me and they all said I wasted my talent. But my job now still provides me a good living so that degree will always be there as a symbol of your hard work and knowledge but sometimes things can't be perfect.

I think if it is what YOU want to do and it makes you happy then go for it and screw what other people think. Your life is defined by you.

Jerome and cutejam - hope there's no such thing as too late for a degree?

But yet again, if you can afford to take that trip then why not? Enjoy life more..

For me personally i couldn't because my brother's wife just had a baby and he wanted to take time off to be with his new baby which meant that I had to take over fully at the company and I had no choice. I wish I had gone a trip if I could because now, I never get the chance anymore unless it is for business..

Ain't that the truth..

Yeah that's one of the consequences of prolonged study unless that degree can catapult you to a high place in your industry right after finishing it because it is such a niche degree..

Why the need to find a job very fast? Do you need the money so you have to or is it just anxiety over the possibility of not being able to land one?

Some people will feel useless without job? Like my dad, he told me that 2-3 days without work as very very boring. Sometimes on Sunday he would go to office. And he's hoping to retire not too soon. Workaholic, opposite of me. The quote "like father like son" doesn't work.

Congratulations on being able to avoid being the typical Malaysian young adult with a complete lack of knowledge in the real world and of current affairs. Most Malaysians have been misled by the total authoritative nature of their upbringing and lack the ability to think critically and creatively and expand their horizons beyond this little country which dictates their minds and thought.

Maybe you should take some time out. Maybe not to the extreme of 3 months on multiple vacations but atleast something. Your dad has been shouldering that burden for some time now, I doubt that a couple of months is going to make a difference. I think you should convince yourself that there is a job out there for you and that you should take your time in getting it and not panic too much. Afterall, the most elusive things are those we sought out the most and yet we can't seem to get them.

well. workaholic aint bad unless you're neglecting your other responsibilities.

I think intelligent and well read people like yourself will always find their way because you have an asset that you can't cultivate overnight and it may or may not involve the field that you are studying but it'll help take you places.

cutejam - are u going to work in your current field before attempting to get 2nd degree?

jerome - that's the word, leap of faith. well, i don't see it that bad. let's say I suddenly find that new XYZ course is worse than my current course, then i can switch back to current field anytime, no? I don't see the reason to get myself stuck in one choice.
