Interviews, Exams, Coursework and... more Interviews!

Yeah Easter break is more like extended study leave to me. Which I don't mind in the slightest, I mean giving us time to study is never a bad thing. But mix up 2 unfinished (and unstarted!!!) coursework and interviews filling up a whole week and you feel like there's not going to be much time to get studying done. I'm going to have to really reassess my schedule seriously, else I'm going to cock up somewhere soon.

Well I'm pretty happy with the interviews I got, PWC, E&Y, Sime Darby, OCBC, Maybank and Accenture so far. All for Malaysia though. I did really want to get a job that's not in Malaysia, like here in the UK where all my friends are would be great. America would have been great too... but there's no reason to be there anymore. Malaysia may not be the best working environment but I have family there and I miss the food... maybe working there for a couple of years isn't so bad.

Alright I should get some sleep, the careers fair is in like 4 hours from now. I'll be back in a week maybe to upload the long overdue Paris pictures. No reviews probably cause, I haven't been playing anything else other than Dota recently. Not excessively of course but if I have the time, a quick game of Dota is usually all I can fit in. Anime takes up the rest. Alright then till next time, take care all.

2HG Champs UK: FAILED

Heya,

Right so today me and Daniel went for the 2HG Champs in London and.. well we didn't massively fail but not getting into the Top 4 is like a fail to me. We went 4 wins, 1 lost and 2 draws. I felt we could have played much much better considering how he's a really good Magic player and I'm pretty ok (no bragging here.. haha!). We still managed to walk away with some product (12 packs each + sealed deck product) though there wasn't anything good in the packs we opened. And the entry fee was a whopping 27.50 per team. Ah well... it was a good experience and I had fun partnering with Daniel (my first partner for a long time other than Allan). Next up would probably be the Extended Pro Tour Qualifier: Hollywood in London. I'm not expecting to win at all cause it would be the first time playing extended for me but I might as well dabble in a bit of Extended now and then, just to cop a feel of what everyone's talking about. Right, enough Magic talk for now, read my other article about what's going on in my life.
