  • Time seriously flies! 🚀 Just realized I hit my two-year anniversary mark in Singapore which still feels surreal ngl. So I decided to take a moment and dive into the whirlwind of memories from the past two years. It's been a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs, but I guess every moment has been a valuable lesson that shaped who I am today. This video is my heartfelt reflection on this transformative chapter, and I can't wait to share it with all of you. Hope you like it :)

    It's crazy how time flies and I can't believe that I've hit my two-year anniversary mark in Singapore, so I figured I'd reflect on the past two years and share some genuine thoughts with you guys. Definitely got a bit emotional towards the end cos of everything that happened... but hope you enjoy this catch up :)

So please dont worry about your viewers, again we are lucky you decided to share your personal journey. It takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there so two thumbs up for you (and a pad on your back :-)) cheers

    Hey Adrian! How long did it take you to secure your new job since you started looking for a change?

    • @AdrianWan1
      @AdrianWan1  Před rokem +2

      it took me quite a while tbh... I started scouting for job openings in Q4 last year, but I had to put it on hold because work got pretty hectic. Then I got back to the job search earlier this year, and it took me ~2 months to secure a job and get the new work visa all sorted out. Hope this helps!
