I feel that I have been overly hurried and impulsive about this whole GMAT and going abroad thing. It has not all been bad, but not all good either. I started it on May 13, and today is June 11, so nearly a month (actually, 28 days) has passed. I would have liked more progress within this time. To be honest, I have not really been serious about the thing. I am also somewhat frustrated about my back and forth decision making and irregular studying habits. I need a smoother effort, that’s more like me.
There are certain advantages to my situation. I have a good, relaxing job (not always though… need to plan) and supporting friends and family. I have a very established base here and can afford to take my time. On the other hand, I do not really have a target. I know I want to explore the world. That objective has some gap with GMAT. I need to be more specific. I also need to keep myself from being burned out, or so relaxed I forget what I read.
I was also going through Eric’s blog a while ago and found it a very good one. I think if I create a blog to record my experience that might as well work out. I already have a Blogspot blog, so I would probably want a Wordpress one this time around. Several things need to be done: set my target, research universities, explore other avenues (but that might be better to do in this blog), log progress. All this seems fun. I have always been a person to see life (especially mine) from a macro level perspective and derive fun out of it. This seems just like that, fun!
Now that I have revised this document once, it feels like such blogging can sure direct me. I can blog about this whole going abroad thing as well; research more on the topic, guide myself. I can have a Games blog. I already have a work blog (just need to search)… or try a real private work blog listing my day to day works and what worked or what did not. But too many blogs might actually end up disorganizing me. Let’s start one at a time. If you asked me what this tells about me, let me try to answer: I have always enjoyed planning for something and seeing it to the end. These are some of my more enjoyable moments. That’s all. Just sucking the bonemarrow out of life… ;)
