Working Girl
Today, the Office of Human Resources from NUS called and told me their offer ($) for the music conservatory job. And it's exactly what I prayed for. Woo-hoo! Praise God!
Tomorrow, I go to NUS to listen to the terms of employment etc. I'm nervous about it - I have this feeling at the pit of my stomach, like I'm going for an exam that I haven't studied for at all. Somehow, I don't think I'm qualified to make such a decision - signing an employment contract. Shouldn't that come with a parental consent form or something?
"I, ( n a m e ) , mother/father/guardian of ( n a m e ) , give my consent for him/her to work at ( p l a c e ) ."
(* delete where appropriate)
23 years of life, 16 of which were spent being "educated", should have involved some form of prepping me for this moment, and yet I still feel that I'm in an inadequate position to make a decision about my life.
Is it just me?
Of course, this begs the question - or statement - are any of us really in any position to make any decisions at all, being always in an imperfect state of knowledge? I guess the best we can do is to pray, pray, pray, make the decision, then pray and then leave the rest in God's hands.
ps - Az, I don't earn enough to qualify for a credit card, so shhh. And to those who know how much I earn - well, you know what I can't afford :)
In other totally unrelated news My mother wrote from Malaysia to say that the funeral went well, and my 3 year old nephew was asking for me! *happy*
