I was one of the first few batches that came here with a WHM Visa end of last year on completion of my degree course. Like most of the WHM visa holders here, i myself have been through a lot while applying for it but i was lucky enough to have breezed through it without much of a hassle. On contrary, starting up here was never easy as i would have to get all the necessary stuffs done such as applying for N.I, setting up a bank account, getting myself registered for a GP and last but not least hunting for jobs. All of these does give you a pain on the ass.
Fortunately, i've got all of the things being sorted out with the help from my friends whom are studying here. Having said that, the next step was to start hunting for jobs, it took me about a month and a half before i could land myself a job as the companies here closes their financial year at the end of January and recruitment will not be done before that.
Needless to say, February was the month where everything started to be on my favor, i've got myself a decent job with a great working environment that comes with fantastic people, they have been very supportive of me by constantly making my presence felt welcomed, always stood up for me for the wrong doings i did as i'm still new to the job , and they have the plunge and patience to pass on their knowledge as well as their experiences to me. Thus, the rest is history.
I couldn't agree more with this statement "All good things, Have to come to an end", this is only my 7th month here and i have been pressured to be back in Malaysia to kick start my career, as a result of that i'll finish off my chapter in UK by touring Europe this coming week. I do regret the fact that i'll have to be back in Malaysia so soon as i have only used up 7 months out of the 24 months that is being given. But at the same time i've got to accept the fact that my parents' did not work so hard to give me good education so that i could end up with a job that is not in my area of expertise nor did i worked so hard in University to be enjoying my life here.
I would really want to thank and express my appreciation to the relevant parties that have came up with this visa and that Malaysians are eligible for it. It has really been a fairytale journey for me living my life to the fullest in a foreign country. This visa acts as a window of opportunities for those that wants to experience life abroad while spending significantly lesser amount of money as oppose to studying here, as not all of our parents has got the financial capabilities to send us here for studies.
However, for those that have just stepped their foot in the UK, i wish you all the best and remember to live your life to the fullest and make sure you appreciate all the things you have done or are about to do here and do not forget that it is because of our parents effort and blessing that we could end up here.
Cheers.
