What now?

Oo lalalala, finally I graduated. My long time dream has came true. Then now what ey? Have to get Australian PR so that it's easier to get a job in Australia.
But then, I am not even in Australia now... can't gao dim my PR... have to get dunno what letter of recommendation and stuffs liddat and have to register with some board lagi. So mafan. =( Dun even wanna think about that now.
I just want a good holiday.

Actually my mom gave me 3 months break to have fun and also think about where I wanna be or what I wanna do. So what now? I have 2 months left, and I can't come to a decision. I have lived in Brunei for 6 years of my life, Singapore for 10 years of my life and Australia for 6 years of my life. Where should I go now?

Brunei, Singapore or Australia. All have their pros and cons.

Brunei:
pros - relaxing, tax-free, low cost of living.
cons - malay controlled society which is unjust and biased against the chinese, stressful cos of the heckcare and messy system they have, poor telecommunication and technology, not much entertainment, jobs are scarce for freshly graduates, social class system which only sides the rich and famous.

Singapore:
pros - good entertainment life, good technology and infrastructure, higher pay than Brunei, politically and economically stable country, multicultural (just and equal society), sense of belonging.
cons - very stressful and hectic working life, more focused on quantity than quality, lesser pay than Australia, high cost of living, hard to save money based on income alone.
neither pros nor cons: pay taxes (but some of our taxes goes to CPF, which is a very clever idea devised by the government)

Australia: (I am talking about Melbourne, not sure about other parts of Aust):
pros - good entertainment life, freedom of speech, good technology and infrastructure (although Singapore is better), highest pay (compared to Brunei and Singapore), working life not as stressful and hectic as Singapore, more focused on quality than quantity.
cons - although multicultural in the European way (ie mixture of Greeks, Italians and Anglo Saxons) but still no sense of belonging, there's still biasedness against Asians in some communities, different wavelength in terms of cultural and communication differences (all internationals have no past etc), high taxes, super high cost of living.

So yaa every country is good and bad in some way. No one will ever be satisfied in any country if they have been in certain countries for long. So what ey, where am I suppose to go now?

My dad wanted me to go Hong Kong to work with him, but then hor... I never lived in Hong Kong before and I can't really speak Cantonese. If I go there, I dunno how I am going to find a job or survive. LOL. However despite all these, I have to shamefully admit that half my roots of origin come from Hong Kong.

Mm, but my dada will be in Melbourne for one more year wor, and he fought to study in Melbourne cos of me. I know he hated Australia to the core de, but he did sacrifice to be with me ba, so so I have to at least stay with him till he finish ba, that means I have to find any kind of excuse to stay in Melbourne for at least one more year right?

So it's either PR, find job or study more. PR is more worth it right? At least I can work first, or else I will be spending more money if I study and Melbourne's cost of living super high. Every year increase by at least 3% de.

But PR, can I get it or not? Australia everyday strict here and there, and money here and there de. =.= and a bit bo tai bo chi one.

Graaa... I am emo... even during my holidays. =.=
