Warning
this post is totally about me blowing my trumpet. Read at your own peril.

When I went to Canada and struggled finding a job and eventually started my own catering job, a lot of people mocked me..
Doctor doing catering business???
I always believed that so long as I earn an honest income, all is well
But it did hurt..the fact that I worked my ass off to become a dr and then ended up cooking food for money!

But i did learn a lot from my experience.. I learned to survive with the least possible amount of money, at the same time give my children the best possible childhood. I also learned to save money.( I actually had more money in the bank when I was jobless than when I worked. when I was working i spend every dime with nary a thought of tomorrow!

Hardest of all was to use second hand clothes. there was no way I could afford good jackets for three kids..so it was Talize and value village that came to my rescue..

This morning, I received news that I cleared the second hurdle to a position that pays 105k/year as my base salary plus perks..( now all that left is the immigration clearance!! which is in the final stage)
From nothing a year ago to 105 k Aussie dollars!!!
Can you see my grin?? My sisters used to call it my standard 70mm smile.
Yup. I am so bloody happy.. that I finally achieved what I was capable of achieving..
It took a while.. and Now I feel like I am on top of the world..
My daughter asked me what is the first thing I am going to buy..I told her Tesla..!! ( just kidding). Actually I promised the kids I will take them to all the Disney land..and I am going to do just that..
Right now, I am off to work..I still have do the job I currently have with qld health.
